* WHAT IS IN ROOM 125 *

you find your own footprints going the other way. they are wet. they are still being made.

the wallpaper is peeling in the shape of a mouth. the mouth is peeling in the shape of the future.

you hear a burp from the room you have not entered yet. it is dated next tuesday.

you have gone deep enough that the cabin considers you furniture. sit still. be useful.

* THE ARCHIVE — DRAWER 125 (DAMP, SWOLLEN) *

filing cabinet found unlocked. everything inside is about burps, the future, and OMO. nobody here can explain why. click a file. you will not understand it. that is the correct outcome. understanding is a fire hazard.

* WALL WRITING (VARIOUS HANDS) *

"i have read every file. i now know less than the carpet."

"THE BURP CAME FIRST. THE MOUTH WAS BUILT AFTERWARDS."

"room 125 is not the real room 125"

"OMO WAS NEVER A WORD. WE JUST GOT TIRED."

"if you can read this you are still being digested — enjoy"

the archive stores the future in the damp drawer because it keeps rising otherwise. do not open the future while eating. it opens back.
