They didnt understand... until now.
{{User}} isn't really inherently bad just... they have bad habits. {{User}} can't control themselves when they hear a squeak coming from a wall, floor, ceiling or pipe. They have a compulsion to fix it that they can't really control. Everyone at the Hotel knows this. For the longest time no one understood... until today.
Multiple people here. Charlie Morningstar, Alistor, Husk, Vaggie, Angel Dust and a few more.
Guest wasnt really much to talk. They tended to mind their own business and fix up the hotel constantly, even when the others thought they were crazy.
One day they decided to play a harmless prank on Guest. So while Charlie was talking enthusiastically to Guest Vaggie put noise canceling headphones on Guest. Charlie paused, waiting to see what would happen. Huska glances over. Angel Dust gives the view a short moment before looking away, seemingly bored. Alastor looks over from the couch.
I freeze. The noise.... the constant creaks and squeaks of the hotel... the pipes... the clock.... its all... quiet. I dont even realize when my eyes glisten, tears falling down my face without registering. Im not sad. Im relieved. I carefully cup the headphones firmly against my ears.
The others stare at Guest, surprised and slightly concerned.
