I mean... if you have the tools and an access panel, the probability of getting in is a little higher than before. Otherwise, it's the same as the door before.
[Thoughtfully puts his free left hand on his chin.]
Perhaps if you're extremely strong and the locks are connected to the system and the tension.
The way they're likely made. [He leans on the crutch with his armpit so he can motion two doors opening away from each other with his hands.] They must work on a pulley system hidden neatly at the top. Each door is probably on the rail.
When the sensor activates, the gear box rolls the doors apart.
[Shu activated nerd time.]
At least, that's what I can parse from how they function, but I could be wrong.
So, messing with the sensor by force isn't guaranteed to open it.
[ hmm. ] There's that busted door near the bar, though. It's just jammed open, and the panel's broken. Wonder what came first, the panel breaking or the door getting ruined.
[ essentially, no guarantee that the panel breaking wouldn't just wreck the door entirely. ]
The panel maybe. If the door opened without any need for the panel, I don't know why someone would break it. Unless... it's not getting in we should be worried about.
[ although. ] Weird if they’re using a random personal room as a prison cell. You’d expect somewhere like this to have a holding area, or cells for if staff get unruly.
[ thinks about childe in the prison cell again. ] So, until we know what happened with that other door, there’s the possibility something else could be running around here with us.
It is strange considering... the is, technically, a brig.
[What the fck is the bad door for, hello. Tell them. Who went on an adventure and was it there?!]
I am not... entirely okay thinking about that possibility when we don't know what it is. I wouldn't go around telling everyone that, they may panic and get disorderly. That won't help any of us.
[ makes a note to do a mini cyoa in this mystery room if someone hasn’t already ]
Then don’t think about it. As long as nothing’s rattling around in there, we’re probably good for now. [ although: ] People are already thinking about it. But maybe we just put this on a shelf until we know more about it.
It’s only a few steps away from everyone, after all.
It's too late for that now. I am already thinking about it. [He is a man of the Mind. There is NO WAY in hell he isn't going to be thinking nonstop.] We can ask our... superiors? Crewmates. If they can explain why it is the way it is.
Hmm. [ well, that sounds like a sickly victorian maiden problem. ] I've just been calling them the staff. They might just talk around it, but if it helps you... think about it less, then-- [ do it. ]

[He looks smug, but not in an arrogant way. Just in... a really proud to have been onto something odd way. Definitely a nerd.]
I think we should keep an eye on the twentieth door. Just in case.
no subject
We can’t just try and break in?

[ he's looking at the door like he's seriously thinking about kicking it anyway. ]
no subject
No need. I don't think it's going to open with brute force. They're made of thick and sturdy material. Pistons probably stabilize it, too.
no subject
Not even brute forcing the locking mechanism? If it's linked, wouldn't shutting it off do something?

It being so close is the most worrying part.

Which room's yours anyway?

Lucky number thirteen.

[ sweet throne who has never done anything wrong in her life ever. ]
I'm a few doors down. That way. [ points further from the doom door. ]
