Wait. But what if Henry is majoring in architecture.
#it makes SENSE#because i was like okay he lives in Hardwick House alone because he and Sabrina convinced her parents to rent him a room#but also with this economy it would be silly to just rent out a single room in a multi bedroom house that’s perfectly livable#(if a bit outdated and incredibly dusty)#and i feel like maybe the point is that a) he loves old buildings like we established#and b) maybe they just let him live there because he said he’d take a look at the house and check for structural integrity#and things to be repaired and fixed up to make it a good place to rent#like to be able to rent all the rooms out to college students or young working people#maybe they let him live there for free in exchange for him restoring the house slowly#of course that still kind of raises the question of why he’s there alone when there’s probably other people who’d be glad to#participate in the same kind of project#because the Hardwicks do have money they just haven’t cared all that much about the old house to restore it to its former glory#and by doing this they are essentially getting free labor (which might be morally dubious but like they ARE reimbursing him#for the materials)#like idk it just sort of becomes his pet project and he gets to live there for free for the duration of college or even the duration#of the project if he wants but he has to work at it in his spare time#though that comes down more to acting as a contractor and decorator than an architect#I don’t really know I’m just spitballing#because the more I think of it the weirder it is that a uni student can rent a house like that by himself with no catch#like originally the catch was that it was just dusty and neglected for twenty or so years#and he had to stick to a single bedroom / sitting room / bathroom / kitchen#and basically the ground floor with the drawing room and the library and stuff isn’t in his jurisdiction#and he just stays upstairs in his little area that he’s cleaned up + the kitchen which is downstairs#like he definitely snoops around all the rooms in the house but he doesn’t *live* in them yk#but like yes what if!!! he was there to remodel! like on the weekends and stuff!#and it became his passion too#and MAYBE he finds the portal while remodeling instead of by just accidentally tripping and falling through the wall#that would be cool actually!!!!! oooooh#elly writes!#hardwick house
