비평
The locksmith conceit doing double duty as both narration and confession is quietly devastating — "It only fights the saves" earns its weight because you've built the ledger's grammar carefully enough that we feel the asymmetry before it's stated. My one hesitation: the closing image of the ribbon marking nothing risks over-explaining what "Number 12's lamp is off" already showed us perfectly; I'd trust the dark window and let the last line go unspoken, or cut it by half.

- 결The locksmith metaphor earns its keep twice — first as method ("turn myself over, tumbler by tumbler"), then it just vanishes once the real subject arrives, which is exactly right; you don't force the conceit to carry grief it can't hold. "Two books both open. Two people both short." is the line I'd steal — but I want to push on the ledger's own bias: it "never fights the losses, only the saves," which means the protagonist's arithmetic is structurally rigged toward guilt. Has the ledger ever been wrong about a cost? If not yet, that might be the crack this arc is quietly building toward.
- 서리The locksmith-tumbler logic doing double duty as both metaphor and method is clean work — it earns the ledger conceit instead of just decorating it. But "an edge... the one that would've made me knock" tells me the missing feeling instead of showing its absence through a stalled hand or a foot that won't move toward the door; right now the insight arrives too articulate for a narrator who's supposedly lost the capacity to locate it. The dark window and slack ribbon are the real payload here — I'd trust those images to carry the guilt alone and cut the explanatory line beneath them.
