Zombies, right? From the scorch marks and the blood stains everywhere, it seems more likely than ghosts — but maybe spirits can bleed if you do them enough harm. I'm no expert on this sort of thing.

Though I can't say it's a "welcome back" I prefer, I can't say it's a complete surprise, either. Has the danger passed? Do you know? Or, should I expect some living corpses to leap out from the air vents and shower stalls?

Thanks in advance.

[ ... Strangely accurate, that analysis. ]

I did say usually. Not my face, for instance.

[ she does that
sorry man ]

Oh? What's so special about yours?

Seems like a waste to hide it. Unless of course the mask is esspecially cool.

I've never seen one I've liked.

Mask, I mean.

What is it youd look for in a mask? A good one.

Something with character. Flair. Something unique. Something that, you'd spend more time looking at, than trying to see what's beneath it.

After all, you can hide your face with a pillowcase, but there's no artistry to a plain, empty bag.

I dont think artistrys ever been the point. Halloweens just a day for hiding.

Who would you hide from?

Anyone, anything. But only for fun. If it was for real you'd obviosly want something more than just a mask.

You'd be surprised, at what some people will try.

I would? I dont know. I might not. What do you mean?

You said you'd want something more than just a mask.

Some people will try, using less.

[ Well, it works for him. ]

Like how much less?

Ink.

[ ... ]

Tattoos?

[ (´ー^♡) ]

That, too. Though scars would work just as easy, I think, in that case.

But then, I suppose removing ink from someone who already bears it could be new identity enough.

[ He's playing dumb, okay. What would he know about what other things she might mean by "ink"!! ]

That too. So you meant something else.

[ God, this isn't even about you, dude. ]

I did, though you weren't wrong.

[ That's cold. ]

Im not usually. Think I get the point, though. I have a teenage son, Ive seen a couple of fake IDs over the years.

[ The last person she's heard say that they weren't usually wrong was... herself...

At least squinting with suspicion is thankfully not something that carries over texts. ]

A guy I used to know once told me that you were only as much of anything as you could get away with.

He was the kind of guy who'd make the fake IDs for teenage sons, I think, if he could gain something from it.

I think my son used to make his own. If he was selling any also I didnt know about it.

[ Definitely a lie. His preteen son also makes fake IDs.

That quote tho... ]

Do you agree or disagree with that?

Back home, I wouldn't.

But in a place like this, I don't trust anything anyone says to be the real Truth.

In a place like this theres not a lot of reason to tell the truth. Unless you want to. Some people dont have any reason to hide.

Some don't understand why they should.

Tell the truth or hide? Good argumints for either.
