[She was wondering when this was going to happen.]

It may surprise you to learn that I have no desire in divulging your deepest, darkest secrets to the populace at large. You're not that interesting, and I highly doubt anyone here who hates you enough to want to blackmail you or get under your skin (I'm guessing mostly everyone with your track record) is useful enough for me to want to trade them.

[Yes. Cutthroat Bitch really is highly appropriate.]

I'm not going to do anything to hurt him.

given it's doubtful you know any of my deepest, darkest secrets
i think we're cool there

[He really has no idea, but the challenge is there for her to prove otherwise if she does have any dirt.]

so what are you doing to help us get out of here?

[Because he'll put you to work if you're not being productive enough, Amber.]

[wilsonsheart]

I doubt Wilson told you everything about me.

[Believe what you want, House. Hopefully, you'll believe she does have some good dirt. Amber likes the idea of being a threat, even if she's not.]

Not enough. Still learning the map.
Any suggestions?
Something that's not being covered?

[rubikscomplex]

[Things that she can do that won't put Wilson in undue danger. Because of course he'll be following her around like a puppy. Hmm...]

what part of town are you in?

[wilsonsheart]

Left the school yesterday morning, heading back into the ice tunnels, possibly going downtown.

[rubikscomplex]

[Hmm...]

There's a hotel down there. One of the rooms has a bunch of the eye symbols drawn on the walls. I want you to see what's under them. Wilson's got an arsenal you can use to take down the walls.

[wilsonsheart]

[A strange task, but this is a strange place. In the end, it's fitting.]

Alright. Anywhere in the tunnels worth looking at on the way?

[rubikscomplex]

might be worth it to stop into 126, the basement
there are shadows there that come alive when you light a fire
don't light one
obviously
but try the eye symbol down there
see if it gets you anywhere

[wilsonsheart]

[Well that doesn't sound dangerous or unappealing at all. Yikes.]

Basement, eye symbol, avoid fires. Got it.
I'll talk to Wilson about what we can use for the walls.

[rubikscomplex]

he'll let me know what you find
so this was fun
but don't bother me unless you've got something to say that he won't

[wilsonsheart]

Wow.

[This is pretty cool coming from the guy who messaged her first. Not too long ago, she would've shut her mouth and let him say whatever he wanted, but her job's not really on the line anymore.]

I'm sure he will.
Enjoy your puzzle, House.
