THE BASEMENT

you were not expected
to come down here.

Upstairs tells the story. Down here are the exports, surviving boundaries, corrections, receipts, and enough file archaeology to explain why the story says what it says.

PUBLICATION BOUNDARIES

not every receipt goes upstairs.

Source rooms carry default clearance. Public biographies may tell the safe, person-first story without exposing every private screenshot or intimate detail. PUBLIC, MEMBERS, BASEMENT, and SEALED are backstage access states—not dramatic badges pasted over the prose.

WHEN THE ARCHIVE GOES QUIET

silence is not an exit.

A last surviving appearance does not automatically mean somebody left. A room export ending does not prove the room died. Public copy says what the archive can support: first spotted, last seen, or the surviving record goes quiet.
