EL CORAZON BUILDING - 100 / THE SERVICE HALL

[Thy Dungyeon Maestyr]

This back hall has one door leading to 104 / THE KITCHEN, one leading to 103 / THE CONCERT HALL next to that, another one to 103 further down (just north of the stage), and one door leading out to THE ALLEY. There's open access to a stairwell about mid-way through (just goes to 2nd floor), and the hall gets wider behind the stage. That area was once used to stage equipment or people for shows. There's a small table and a few chairs there.

Alex spilled out into a service hall - quite dark and spooky. The lady was nowhere to be seen, just a memory in his mind.

Memory of Fire Woman-
"...grr..."

Suddenly a click alerted him to the fact one of the doors across the hall had recently been opened - and was just now finishing its re-closure styled operations.

[DKender]

Ahead: a shadowy corridor and one tempestuous stranger. At his back: alone time with Olivia, la sirena joven. Emphasis on joven. Yikes.

Maybe the fire woman knew more about Capitol Hill. So what if all his friends (and Kenny) abandoned him? Alex would be productive and INVESTIGATE.

He crept down the spooky hall, ignoring memories of Cornish. At the door, Alex really, really wanted to kick it open like a boss. But that was just silly. Instead, he knocked.

"HELLO? Can I come in?"

[Thy Dungyeon Maestyr]

Alex suddenly felt silly. The timbre of the sound of his knock clued him in. He noticed a sliver of light at the door crack. This must go out to the alley. Go to horrorboys.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=elcorazon&action=display&thread=412

LATER

Alex came in from the waning daylight, a little disheartened by the late hour. In the dark hall, he heard a noise. His flashlight saw some people making out - for serious, maybe something more. Clothes were loose. They were on a table several feet away. The man didn't turn around, but the woman waved a skinny hand at him, to shoo him away. He couldn't tell who they were.

[DKender]

"Jesus Christ! Sorry!" He slapped a hand over his eyes and ran down the corridor blind (with the occasional peek between his fingers to avoid slamming into a wall).

Finally, Alex reached the concert hall door.

Yikes. That was almost worse than the time he interrupted two people [REDACTED] in the dorm bathroom. Oh, memories.

[◊◊BLOODBEASTER◊◊]

A man slipped in from the kitchen, pausing to close the door ever so quietly. He looked on at the couple making out on the table, smiling to himself.

Jordan-
"..."

He slipped back in the door, and disappeared from sight.

Cathleen-
"OMG why won't people stop barging in?!"


Rafael-
"That's how it goes around here, no room for privacy. No big deal, people get used to minding their business. Now uh, heh, where were we?"
