Actions Requirements Effects Notes
Converse using Morse code
You locate a spoon, for better acoustics. A loud 'TAP' for a dash, a light 'tap' for a dot. TAP-TAP-tap. TAP-TAP-TAP. TAP-TAP-TAP. TAP-tap-tap. Tap. Tap-tap-tap-TAP. Tap. TAP-tap. Tap-tap. TAP-tap. TAP-TAP-tap.

Game note: Lose 50 Terror, but gain Nightmares.

Slow revelations
The conversation is glacial and imperfect, but you manage. Over the course of the night you learn of his home, and of the regrettable events that led to his death. You've barely had a wink of sleep when it's time for your shift. You'll have trouble concentrating today – your thoughts are sluggish and icy and sad.
Ignore him
Turn you back to the window.

Game note: Gain Terror.

You'll not entertain this sort of behaviour
You pull a spare pillow over your head to mute the glassy tapping. Still you can hear it. Tap-tap. Tap-TAP. TAP-TAP. Tap-TAP-tap-tap. TAP-TAP-TAP. TAP-tap. Tap. Tap-TAP-tap-tap. TAP-tap-TAP-TAP.
