He pointed at the turnstiles from his spot on the floor.
.... brainwave.
West started thinking about leprechaun gold. Could the same theory work on knuts?
Hmm.
Dylan considered this briefly and then nodded.
"Like a sensory mechanism." That'd be something they could look into at a later time...For right now, though...all he wanted to do was sleep.
The Captain had had a long couple of days.

Kommoto groaned. "Are you kidding me? This stinks." He slid a knut into the slot, and walked through. He saw people chatting, and enjoying themselves. Nervous, he slunk upstairs, and found his stuff waiting for him in front of what he presumed was his bed. looking around, he saw nobody. He opened his trunk, and pulled out a book. Laying on his bed, he began to read.
He was about to move to insert the knut into the coin slot...when a person came out of nowhere and just walked right through.
Dylan blinked. Had that just happened? Or was he imagining things? Probably the latter. He'd refused to eat ANYTHING on that table tonight...

This is stupid!” Sonea tried to think of a way to pass and to go inside the common room but had no idea and nodded to the other girl, “I hope that the head of or house is coming soon because I’m tired and I dont want to stay here the whole night!” Sonea sounded annoyed and yawned again.
A small sound caught Dylan's attention as put the coin in and turned the thing...He didn't know proper names for it. He recognized her immediately from the Trophy Room last term...
"She'll be here shortly. I'm going to pay for you to get in...So, relax." Seriously. Chill. He didn't want to see anyone freaking out right now.
With the coin in place, he walked through the metal bars, moving them with his hands rather than his lower body.
"I'll be right back."
...AND EYES FOR YOU, Duck Boy. SQUINT!
