You put away Maggie's letter, not sure exactly how you're supposed to respond. Just another worry for the growing pile.
You turn to the trash bin, locked since you got here, and feel the usual buzz of excitement that isn't your own.

Any further inquiries are met with the same response, identical as a recording. You get the feeling this is one of those weird "concept" things, like how nobody remembered Jay's victims. It's disconcerting...but it's also kinda nice, how these things don't affect you the same way. It feels like an actual edge against...whatever the heck it is you're up against.
