Grid Formation Under Glass

Night reduced visibility through the glass. Exterior reconnaissance concluded. I pivoted my stance on the wooden sill. Below the pane sat a discarded glass spectacles case left open. Inside, a velvet-lined groove presented tactical utility. I marched five paces down the sill and reached a stray plastic bread clip and three uniform metal screws. One by one, using steady footwork and my rifle stock as leverage, I pushed the hardware into the felt tray. Screws aligned tip-to-head. Bread clip centered at the rear perimeter. Storage grid complete. Night quarters fortified.
