Room-switch with Axford; the single-bed arrangement

texture · UNDATED (mid-to-late Nov, pre-20 Nov)

• When: UNDATED — in force before dawn 20 Nov; discovered by Hal as a fait accompli
• What: Sometime in this window Troeltsch officially swaps room-assignments with Trevor Axford through Lateral Alice Moore (Coyle later cites the precedent: "I'm going to Lateral Alice for a switch like Troeltsch did") and becomes "now apparently a resident of B-204." The swap surfaces obliquely: before dawn on 20 Nov (event 16) Troeltsch is found asleep in Axford's single — a room with exactly one bed — an arrangement the narration flags and pointedly declines to explain, dovetailing with his established asexuality/ambiguity (event 4). That something as major as a midterm room-switch happened without Hal's knowing fills Hal with dread. [Inference flag: the text raises and refuses to resolve any impropriety; recorded only as narrated ambiguity.]
