* THE ARCHIVE — DRAWER 2 (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 2 is not the real room 2"

"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.
