...Pelape gets out of bed and lays a hand on the doorknob. It is still and will not budge.

The scraping stops and then a minute later resumes near the hinges of the door.

She can touch those too, the top one with her other hand and the bottom one with her foot.

In that case the scraping will stop entirely. 

She stands there, listening.

She can hear what is possibly someone breathing a few feet from the door.

Well then. She'll keep standing there.

The person checks the doorknob and hinges again after a bit.

She's still there touching them and holding them all still.

They leave after that, at least as far as she can hear.

"Can you tell if they're gone?" she whispers to Eefa.

"I can't hear them?" she whispers back.

"Me either."

She gets back into bed.

...

Eefa is going to cuddle up in the bed this time.

She's more than welcome to.

They're undisturbed during the rest of the night.

In the morning: "Do you know if that was the 'wolf' or are you not sure?"

"Not sure."

"I'm tempted to tell Saffron, see if she'll post a guard on the hall, but if you don't want me to, I won't."

"If you think it'll make us safer."

"It depends on things that we don't know, but I'd think so - a smart bad person intent on getting into our room, if they don't want to make a scene about it, has way more ways to do it without witnesses."

Eefa nods.

"And it didn't seem like they wanted to make a scene. So - yeah. If we can get to Saffron without going right by the wolf in the process I want to tell her."

"Okay." So long as Eefa doesn't have to leave Pelape's side during the process.

She doesn't.

Saffron proves to be eating breakfast in the cafeteria with her favorite performer, though, so they'll have to talk to her later or through an intermediary or something. Off they go to eat in the kitchen while Pelape handles dishes.
