Justice found themselves wandering around the manor until a particular room caught their eye – A study of some sorts, with shelves upon shelves filled with books and some with antiques including small statues and trinkets that looked like they’d been decades old, perhaps even more. A record player with a massive collection of vinyl also stood out in the room. Its atmosphere was peaceful and quaint, yet eerie at the same time – As though Justice shouldn’t have been in there.
They walked around the room while examining the objects in awe. Justice hadn’t been much of a collector, but the things were showcased in such a beautiful, yet mysterious way. Who did all of this belong to? What was the purpose of keeping it all in the room? Justice then ran their hands along the array of vinyl. Of the ones they pulled out, it had either been artists they hadn’t recognized, or older musicians such as Billie Holiday and Buddy Holly. With their curiosity getting the best of them, Justice decided to take out a random vinyl and give it a listen. Once taking it off the shelf, it suddenly collapsed and a bunch of records fell onto the floor, creating a loud THUD. “Shit,” Justice muttered under their breath before bending down and trying to clean the mess as fast as they could before someone heard. To their dismay, they heard footsteps approaching and they stood back up, face turning red with embarrassment upon seeing the person standing in the doorway. “I totally didn’t do that,” they scoffed, “Okay, maybe I did, but not on purpose – Although I should’ve. Whoever these belong to has a shitty record collection.”
