( this investigation has peaked, there's no going up from forced tiddy touches with eliot. he's gotten all he can out of this experience.
after the sudden release, Matt stumbles to keep his feet. he's lucky he doesn't lose them. at first, he tries to see without his eyes — reaching out with senses, trying to map the place for size, even basic contents. it takes long enough that he isn't quite as rattled or breathless by the time he finally folds and uses his eyes. he hates how easy they are to rely on, when he knows he only gets the luxury for however long this bizarre trip lasts. )
Why would they be building this under the lake? ( it's a huge structure, but ridiculously empty. the staircase is the only thing that hints at anything, and Matt heads that way to test the metal, see if it's sturdy enough to be climbed. ) We've gone this far. Do we keep falling down the rabbit hole?
