I think it’s a peephole. There’s one in a similar position on Joyce and Dorothy’s door, and it appears that the Grace/Mandy/Sierra trio have their whiteboard mounted higher so that it blocks the peephole.
One other thing to remember is that peepholes view both ways. Someone on the outside of the door can put their eye up to the hole and get a fish-eye view of what’s going on inside.
SeanR
I believe someone on the outside, looking in, would get a pin-prick view of what’s going on inside.
I’ve seen special optics for sale to reverse a peephole, but the thing was pretty bulky.
eh, whatever
Correct. That it only works in one direction is the point of a door peephole.
Why would it? Jacob and Raidah aren’t dating anymore.
Mark
Because it’s Sarah.
clif
Exactly. Raidah has tried to isolate Sarah and Joyce by pulling their friends into her orbit. She’s tried it with Jennifer, Dorothy, and now Walky. A few selfies of Sarah and Jacob having fun together would drive her nuts.
Nono
Raidah’s spat on Dorothy and her dream, not try to pull her over to her side.
And part of pulling Jennifer over was because of Jennifer’s parents.
First of all, I’m turning on my fan, because we are getting a heat wave, similar than these we have in Europe.
So, I’ll get ice cream and watch the blossoms in the neighborhood, because it’s spring.
I’m in the southern hemisphere, so it’s spring equinox for me. I’ll collect some flowers and wild herbs in the morning and do a house cleansing. I actually just have to clean the house, but it’s a good time for it.
Stuffed squash, fresh bread, and a nice vigorous cleansing of my home! This is the first year my daughter can really help with things (like decorating and baking), so it’s been fun.
Thank you for this holiday celebration reminder, NG! I had completely forgotten about this important autumn holiday!

I would say yes, she counts as a tsundere, but it occurs to me that someone who is a tsundere is not necessarily tsundere in relation to everyone. Joyce? Oh yes, Sarah is a major tsundere. Jacob? Yes as well. But to other people who Sarah isn’t showing her sweeter side to at all, she wouldn’t.
I’d say she counts as tsundere towards Joyce, Jacob, Liz, and maybe Dorothy, depending. Maybe Dina, though those two seem to kind of just enjoy each other’s bluntness. Walky appreciates it, too, but I think she doesn’t really get especially “dere” with him, though she does seem to consider him a friend still.
We have a dry erase board at work, and we use both dry erase markers for that, and permanent markers for other things, and I am honestly expecting someone’s going to fuck up and use one on the dry erase board any day.
As 50,000 people posted back during the Dingdong Door Bandit saga, you can clean that crap off a whiteboard by drawing over it with a dry erase marker, then erasing as normal. The ink will stick to the other ink, which can be wiped away.
Not an expert, but I was under the impression it was more that going over it with the dry erase marker introduced the solvent that made it erasable. Given enough time for the solvent to slowly evaporate, the erasable ink becomes pretty unerasable.
Had a dry erase board I used at work (as we were supposed to be a paper-free environment). I left some notes on it when I retired and cleaned out my workspace about two years ago, and came upon it again about a month ago. In that length of time the dry-erase marks had become pretty-much permanent – almost like they had baked themselves into the coating.
There may be exceptions, but I have had significant success going over it with fresh white board marker and then wiping it off. Even with marker several years old. Good luck!
Miri
I was going to advocate going straight to a drop of alcohol hand gel on a cloth/paper towel but I’m not sure if you’re talking about permanent pen or dried whiteboard pen now… although definitely worth a try either way
Miri
That might have been intended as a reply to vlademir1
If you do the trick with going over using dry erase marker, clean it with isopropyl after. Same way if you let dry erase marker dry to the point all the solvent is gone. The solvent in dry erase markers is alcohol, and adding more makes it easier to cleanly remove.
Sarah understands the importance of destroying evidence and leaving nothing behind. She wants to work in law? Well the best way to learn the law is to put it to the test; such as jaywalking, littering, murder, or loitering.
depends on how heavy the foot traffic is there but i imagine ppl are busy doing their own thing to rly do more than a passing glance unless tehy’re aquainted with jacob and being like “hey man i saw osme girl messing with your white board”
You make a good point. Probably not, unless, as you suggest, she happens to be visiting her, “it’s totally not a sin when I do it, just when everyone else does it”, boyfriend, or if she spotted Sarah obviously up to SOMETHING, and decided to follow to gather leverage.
But, most likely, no.
Unless the plot demands it. And then all bets are off.

I can’t believe how often they use enhance, and in ways that is almost ridiculous.

We’re really only one step away from

She practically had an invitation from Jacob to hang out. She obviously hasn’t considered the effect that this would have on Raidah.

BTW @Rose and other pagans here, happy Autumn Equinox!!!
How you celebrate? ?
RassilonTDavros
By spending about a week feeling horribly congested and phlegmy, after which things more or less even out.
Needfuldoer
It’s goldenrod season!
not someone else
Oh fuck it is
Fuckeriffic, apparently with blueberry-banana fritters and pain meds!

I celebrate by watching a movie in bed, and drink a margarita during the movie.

By conducting arcane shadow rituals to open the gateway for the return of the old ones and the outer darkness.
That and consuming pumpkin pie.

Personally, I celebrate the equinox by having vigorous sex.
But then, that’s how I celebrate most things.

It’s good someone knows how to celebrate!

Does Sarah qualify as a tsundere character? Or is she just a cranky and spiky person?

You could definitely make a case for her being tsundere, yeah.

Wouldn’t she draw more attention to herself if she is visibly crouching in front of a public door instead of standing there?

She is crouching so Jacob can’t see her through the eye-hole window thingy.
But yea… I doubt he is actively looking through it at the moment.

At least when I was in college, being weird in the hallways was just sort of expected behavior that mostly went unremarked-upon.
Course, I lived in the weird dorm with all the honors college kids.
