belegwen.livejournal.comGiven that you left my house by an even less conventional method than you entered it, I have a couple points I would like to draw to your attention.
My house has a knocker on the door. This is so that it can be used. I offer my hospitality rather indiscriminately and you had been invited by a resident. Until you have given me a concrete reason not to open the door to you, it will, in fact, be opened should you knock. This is simple good manners.
I take a rather old-fashioned view towards hospitality. As host, I have an obligation to let in anyone who seeks my hospitality in good faith (I like to call this the Right of Safe Haven), and to provide for their comfort and safety so long as they are within my home. Guests similarly are obligated to seek that hospitality with proper courtesy and to abide by the rules of the house while they are within it (I like to call this the Right of Demesne).
You are currently welcome to my hospitality. Should you do harm to another guest within my home, this will be withdrawn, and you will find it less easy to manipulate my locks, but until then, you may knock on the door and expect to be let in. In the future, do please do so.
I have no means of enforcing this. If you wish to continue letting yourself in, I will not stop you. There is nothing I can do to you. I am small, pregnant woman with few skills at combat. I can only ask you to abide by the conventions of courtesy, and point out the fates of others who have betrayed hospitality in the past.
