[MINGLE] Glitches: Locked In

[sixthiteration]

The Inn is still a place that most of the villagers gather and, as such, a perfect place to conduct an experiment. Since it is a place of high traffic, it is not uncommon to see people come and go at all hours of the day and night; men and women come through to eat meals, to deliver game and simply to talk and catch up with others. If there's any bit of news or a new development within the village, it always spreads through the Inn like wildfire.

So what happens when the Inn is locked away from everyone else? What happens when the doors cease to work and the traffic in and out of the myriad doors is forcibly stopped for an afternoon and evening? Chaos? Panic? Both? Neither? That is precisely the hypothesis being tested today.

There are ways out, yes, but they're cleverly hidden. The keys are not in the normal, visible places they should be kept and each key fits a certain door. Additionally, those doors have to be opened in a certain order or nothing is going to happen.

How long will it take for the Inn to open up to the public again?

He'll stay there, because she told him to, and it's probably faster if he lets her go after it herself, since she knows where she's going and what she's looking for. He'll just keep attempting to use his hook to pick the lock in the meantime.

Moana was gone for about twenty minutes before reappearing at Hook's side. She had run to the hospital and found exactly what she'd been looking for in the supplies there. A thin piece of wire that was about the length of a elongated paper clip.

"Will this work?"

It's sturdy enough not to bend in the tumblers, and smaller in diameter than his hook. He stands up to stretch his legs and takes the wire from her. "It should. The only way to be sure is to try it."

Moana waved a hand at Killian to continue. "Well, try it out."
