Leo looks at the 3 doors “Left one, left two or the right?”
“I’ll check the first on the left. You can check one of the other two.”
*Good morning-ish!*
You try the first door on the left... and it opens just fine.
Inside is the guest bathroom. There is a shower with a sliding glass door on the opposite end of the room, and an entirely ordinary ordinary sink and mirror and toilet. There is also a chest of drawers opposite to the sink, with a second mirror above it. A very small window is nestled at the top of the wall near the shower- likely designed with letting out steam and water vapor in mind rather than viewing outside. The ceramic tiling along the floor and the shower walls has lost its shine, and there are trace amounts of rust on the faucets and shower head.
Rose heads over to the sink and tries to turn on the faucet. “Hopefully the water still works. Else we’ll be dryer than the Mummy.” She lets out a small laugh at the joke.
Sure enough, the faucet does work, with water pouring out as is ordinary. However, the water is very cold, despite Rose having turned the hot water tap.
“Hmm. Either there’s a ghost here or heater is broken.” She turns off the water and heads over to the chest of drawers and inspects their contents.
The drawers mostly contain neatly folded towels and washcloths, bottles of soap, and other various things one would expect in a bathroom. Though, there may still be other things as well. *Go ahead and roll a d20 for Investigation*
The door on the right creaks open to reveal an attic-like storage room. There are shelves and drawers all about the room, but only a scarce few boxes. An old-looking wardrobe- one possibly older than the house itself- sits in the corner of the room. There is a single florescent light on the ceiling that bathes the entire room in a sickly light.
Jimmy sweeps his gaze across the room and then walks over to the wardrobe and opens it, “There better be none of them lions or witches in here.”
The wardrobe does not, in fact, reveal a gateway to Narnia- but rather, something much less whimsical. There is a trio of overstuffed cardboard boxes that sit at the bottom of the wardrobe, and an array of clothes that, while expensive-seeming,Fern peers over have lost their shine over stagnant years after being forgotten.
Fern peers over Jimmy's shoulder.
"Gross..."
Jimmy digs through it to find something to try on, “Fancy more like it. This is one high-fallutin’ family.”
""Where do you guys even find these places to have sleepovers in? Why not just do it at your house?"
Fern picks through the cardboard boxes.
“I’m purty sure this is Corvi’s house. Mighty strange family, right? Drummer’s was like this too. My home sure ain’t as big and hainted as any of thar’s”
*This isn't actually Corvi's house- it's a house that was once a rich couple's summer home, but they left and pretty much abandoned it later. Odds are, most people know that first part, but not quite as much about the second.*
As the two of you are digging through the contents of the wardrobe, you find some interesting things. Fern, while picking through one of the boxes, finds a photo album containing photographs of a happy couple and their young daughter- who is not Corvi. Jimmy finds an old hat with a wide brim that, while coated in dust, seems barely used- likely something worn once at a party or other gathering and promptly forgotten.
The wardrobe's doors creak as they start to gently sway back and forth on their own.
"I don't think this is Corvi's house..."
He turns to Jimmy and shows him the photo, then notices the swaying wardrobe doors.
After rummaging through the drawers some more, Rose notices something out of place- a warm radiant light faintly emitting from underneath a stack of folded towels. Though, as they reach for it, the drawer slams shut as if on its own. The light grows a bit brighter- enough to be seen peeking out from the gaps in the drawer itself- but it seems to be coming from a different drawer than before.

“So you’re going to be difficult? Let’s see what happens when the drawer you’re in can’t close.” She opens the drawer it currently is and quickly tries to grab something to wedge it open.

She wrenches open the second drawer, and... *Go ahead and make another d20 roll for Sleight of Hand. All the kids have +1 dexterity, so you can add +1 to the roll.*

As Jimmy grabs both the wardrobe doors, he feels an odd amount of resistance from them as they begin to shake with more force. Then, they attempt to swing and slam closed to catch Jimmy and Fern inside!
