[So, if Darin has learned anything it's that sometimes there are people shaped innocuous objects in the lobby. He learned this hard way when Cecelia stopped being a statue partway through him washing her. He has learned his lesson.]
[So now he's just. Sitting in a spot watching the girl shaped tree. If anyone lingers for too long, he'll chime in saying something completely not insane like "There's a girl in there, don't do anything weird."]
[Finally, he stands and gets close to examine said girl tree and the cracks that seem to be forming along it.]
I hope you're not actually some weird plant monster.
