What if we hold him at the church? Is that too cliche- are there places to sleep there?
Alternatively, someone else can go have a sleepover with Orin in his own room every night? We can pretend Orin has a friend so it seems normal to the townsf---ahahahaha I cant say that seriously! Having a friend sleep over would probably be WEIRDER to others than if Orin disappeared each night, tbh.
I like that his stalker is about putting things under strain till they become formless and hes putting our team under strain till it's hard to form a decision. Nice similarity!
