Window Ledge of the Crew Room

The narrow window ledge outside the crew room sits flush with the thick glass, barely wide enough for the Doctor to crouch unseen. Salt-crusted from the pounding sea air, it's slick with condensation from the warmth inside, the sill worn smooth by years of leaners staring into the storm. The ledge's ledger extends just three feet along the eastern wall, offering a vantage where the Doctor can watch through the grimy pane as the Rutan slithering as Reuben betrays its kind. Below, the black waves crash against the lighthouse's base, their roar muffled by the glass but palpable as the wind whistles through the single frame's gap. It's an escape route only for someone determined to vanish and reappear like smoke.
