Who: All the good little anti-entropy engine girls and boys and others
Where: On the way back towards the dorms
When: Day 258, evening, so very shortly after Good Ends
What:

[As the festivities end and it’s time to head back to dorms, there seems to hang an uneasy feeling that has nothing to do with bittersweet goodbyes. The particularly astute may notice an uncomfortable stillness about; not a living thing is out and active, save the Blanks. Even the river seems stilled, as if holding its breath. The more sensitive can probably feel it coming, whatever it is. Even the insensitive may find something about the walk home distasteful.]

[just going to walk without speaking -- but is deliberately making sure to walk loudly enough to hear his footsteps]

*looks very, very uncomfortable*

It's too quiet... the whole walk back, all I could hear was myself. Don't have any special senses, so I don't really know much more than that.

[Good question. Even without your eye, you see something moving behind the walls of the cave you're in.]

[shakes his head, swallowing hard]

There's something really off.

[The path sways this way and that, almost as if it had been pushed by waves before taking it GENERALLY in the direction back to the cove...

The landscape around it is... oddly bubbled and bulbous.]
