==> WHAT ELSE IS IN THE ROOM?
Right. Calm down. The idea of a window is exciting, but also inherently suspicious. It could be an interior window. Or lead into a creepy courtyard. Or another dimension? The last one's improbable. No one can travel to the Echo.
You look into the room, forgetting you shouldn't be able to see color in the dim light.
It's the same kind of blue as the rest of the cell. Which is still weird, but you don't have the mental bandwidth to deal with it.
There's the window, on the far end of the room from the door. The floor is bare boards, painted blue, and the walls are bare drywall, also painted blue.
A desk, pushed into the wall under the window, holds a laptop computer, closed, and what appears to be either an unplugged or battery-powered desk lamp. It's not on.
The window is too high up to see through clearly, which also means it's probably too small to use for escape, anyway, even if you climb onto the desk.
Stupid tall body. If you were short, like Diesel, you'd probably be able to squeeze through it no problem.
You could also probably squeeze through it if your body were mostly made of the same fibrous, pliable material as your hands, but that's... that's not something you want to think about. At all.
???: BONNIE!
What the hell? Who is that?
Do you respond?
