Lore
How drawings work
Crayon drawings are a normal loot item found by searching furniture (see Loot Tables for exactly which containers can hold one). Using one from your bag with R reveals the next unread page, always in the fixed order below — there are exactly 12, one set per run, and finding one is worth +60 score. A "Read the walls" job on Mrs. Honeywell's list guarantees one will spawn to find that day.
The pages, in order
Everyone Went Home
A yellow bus. Fourteen stick children in the windows. One stick child on the pavement, drawn much smaller than the rest, with no arms.
The New Boy
A boy in green dungarees, drawn bigger than the school. Underneath, in wobbly letters: HE ASKS YOU THINGS. DO NOT ANSWER. I ANSWERED.
Class Photo
A row of faces with the eyes scribbled out. In the back row, one face is left alone. It is smiling. Someone has written GRUMP under it, then crossed it out and written a longer word that will not fit on the page.
What Bob Found
A man with a mop and a torch. Beside him, a heap of small shoes, carefully coloured in. The caption reads: BOB PUTS THEM IN LOST AND FOUND. BOB IS TIDY. BOB DOES NOT LOOK IN THE BOXES.
The Baby Destroyer
The green boy again, taller than the corridor, arms down to the floor. Every child in the picture is drawn behind him, in a line, holding hands, walking the other way. The last one has turned around.
The Rule
Just words, pressed so hard the crayon tore through: THERE IS NO RIGHT ANSWER. THAT IS THE ANSWER.
The Card Boy
A boy holding a fan of cards, every one of them coloured in with care. Behind him, very tall and very thin and drawn without a face, something is bending down. The boy is smiling. He has not noticed yet.
Bob's Keys
A ring of keys, drawn one by one, each with a room written on it. One key is coloured black and labelled BOB DOES NOT HAVE THIS ONE.
Day Four
A calendar. Days one, two and three have smiley faces on them. Day four has been scribbled over so hard the paper is shiny with wax.
The Lunch Queue
The cafeteria, full of children with trays. At the very back of the queue, taller than the dinner ladies, a green shape waits with an empty tray. The caption says: HE IS ALWAYS HUNGRY AND HE DOES NOT EAT FOOD.
Mrs. Honeywell
A teacher with a big smile and a long list in her hand. The list goes off the edge of the page. Underneath: SHE LEFT US JOBS SO WE WOULD STAY BUSY. STAYING BUSY IS HOW YOU STAY ALIVE.
Room 101
A map of the school, drawn from memory and mostly wrong. One classroom is coloured in solid black. An arrow points at it. The arrow says: DO NOT LET HIM IN. THE LIGHTS ARE THE DOOR.
