( ooc; slight warning for implied torture. replies from River will likely be erratic and incoherent. )

[there is a little girl with ringlets sitting in River's room today, and she appears to have... made a fort? she's peering out at the community over one of the carefully constructed walls of her mattress safehouse.]
