Why were they asking about the mask? They couldn't see what was underneath the mask. Did they want to see what was underneath the mask? She couldn't let anyone see what was underneath the mask! She knew it was wrong, and she knew it was hideous. What was under the mask wasn't her, and she couldn't let anyone know what it was underneath the mask or she would--
Oh no he was reaching out!
The ghoul squealed, swatting at him and attempting to shrink away from him. "No, no, no! You can't see! Style it without seeing my lips!"
"But Serafina, dear--"
"No!"

It had been a long day of waiting around at the maul, walking around to find the outfit that might be perfect for her. Nothing seemed like it was working, but she needed to find what would be perfect for the prom, even if barely anyone saw her in it. After all, she was chaperoning this year!
Wait, that meant that she was probably going to get a lot of attention.
She kept looking, and looking, going through store after store after store in the largest of the Halloweentown mauls. This place was so large that there had to be something! She would find it, even if it was taking her hours--
What was that?
Oh, it was beautiful! And it fit the theme perfectly! If she wore that, she would look like a ring leader...
Perfect.
All of her walking effort was for something after all. She would go try that prom dress on pronto!

Oh Jack, she was staring at her mask. Why was she staring at her mask?! Did she want to take it off too? Knotted didn't want anyone to take it off, ever, and showed that with a shaky hand being raised to her mouth.
One clamped over the other.
When the other ghoul reached out to her, Knotted nearly shrieked in her attempt to get away from her, holding her hands tighter against her face. The ghoul in front of her giggled. What was so funny about the fact she didn't want anyone to take off her mask?! This was a very personal thing--
"I love your surgical mask! Where did you get it?"
Knotted was surprised.
"Really?"
"Yeah! I wanna find one just like that! Where did you get it?"
Knotted lowered her hands, slowly, surprise on her face. Someone was ... complimenting her mask?
"Thank you! Well, I got it from..."

The feeling burned in his chest, ready to burst out and attack like a rabid animal.
He could barely keep it in check - his hands gripping in his gloves, hiding away the disgusting scars that were never shown. How dare that man attack those around him - a 'leader' he was supposed to be, but all he was, to the Frenchman, was a sick monsters, pulling the strings of a community that he was supposed to watch over.
Sure, they needed a reminder that they were a business, a group that needed to work together, an army.
But how dare he use violence.
If there had been respect, it was gone.

On some days she would simply stare out of the window of the eye scream shop, thinking about the many things she would have to do after she graduated from school. She would have to start looking for an apartment in town, seeing how she would be staying here while she worked at the auction house. That would entail getting furniture, and other living necessities. She would also have to start planning out her weekly routine, getting the groceries, walking her minipets ....
Sometime later, she would turn back to notice that her cup of half-eaten eye cream was now full again. She would of course smile and thank the kind boil at the counter, who seemed to carry a perpetual blush.

Now that he was in Deus Ex Machina, he was told that no matter what the situation, Dorian was now considered dead and gone to his family. Now that he had been gone for a while, though, he was starting to feel the pang of guilt. He would never be allowed to see his sisters, or watch his little brother grow up.
What if he had more siblings?
He would never see them.
It started to stop hurting though, after a long night of alcohol and crying and venting to his visored neighbour, and then the fall out date after that.
So he thought.

The lake. It was... a peaceful place, and familiar by now. There were worse places she could be.
Besides, it was kind of neat to see her memories again. For instance...
She had never been so relieved to find an empty box. Thoughts of what MIGHT have been in it had terrified her for days. But now that she’d finally found the courage to open it up…. Nothing. Just stale air and dust. No rotting heads, no trapped demons, no nest of bugs. Nothing.
Very carefully, the girl put the lid back on the box. Then she placed it back in the crawlspace.
After putting the cover back on it, she found herself a nice bookshelf and placed it in front of said space.
Just because there was nothing in there didn’t mean she wanted something getting out.
A shiver ran down her back again. She didn't like that memory. She had tried very hard to forget about that crawlspace.

The ghoul would remember how one of her wishes was fulfilled over the summer vacation she had. Her cousins from her mother's side had come over to visit, although they were quickly barred from certain parts of the castle because of the havoc they wrecked. This would turn out to be a blessing, as she would one day be snuck out of the castle with them to go skiing down the mountains. A day spent learning how to ski and snowboard did cost her a broken arm, but there was a thrill in it she had never experienced before.
Back in her room at Amityville was a snowboard she had brought back to school, which one day would see use at the slopes of Bear mountain.

He was back at the lake. His face was appropriately expressionless. The past wasn't something that he liked to dwell on but there was something about having the past come up and shove itself into your face that made JabberWhut come back to it. The past was never as real as it was now.
He touched the water.

There were no voices this time.
The scenery faded to his room. He was lying on his back, staring at the ceiling. It was near dusk and the falling sun cast shadows on the wall. He looked older than the versions of himself that he saw in his previous memories. Probably thirteen.
There was a fly buzzing around on the ceiling. Jabber's eyes followed it.
There were voices outside in the hall, cheery, excited voices. The boy lying on the bed ignored them. He continued to stare at the fly until it zoomed into the a shadow and disappeared.
The boy closed his eyes.
The voices in the hall faded.
His sister had returned victorious.

Charity wasn't something the boil was terribly familiar with. Neither were compassion, teamwork, camaraderie or sympathy. Experiments were best performed in a vacuum, mostly because people in Halloween weren't foolish enough to volunteer to endanger themselves for no good reason.
But they did. They would. People held the door for him the day after he dissipated them with an unruly drowning cantrip. They all seemed to want him to succeed as much as he wanted to, and their good natures helped keep him flush with new discoveries. His mother had been wrong. Not everyone was only out for himself.
Or maybe everyone was just crazy.

Sometimes he imagined that the prom had ended differently. The changes he made weren't drastic—he said wittier things, he danced with more skill, he brought her a drink without being asked—but in all of his musings he made his intentions clear... whatever they were.
And that was the problem. He really had no idea what he intended, only that he thought she was funny and effervescent and courageous and very, very pretty.

The voice spoke out of the lake. Normalcy. Now that was something that was very uncommon in her life. She was being trained to fight things that go bump in the night.
Her life would be anything but normal for the rest of her life, and she could deal with that. She was quite happy where she was. For her, this would become normal.
This was normal.

He wasn't athletic or charismatic or frightening, he was smart, and sometimes smart wasn't wise. He could mix formulas as well as sorcerers far older than he was and would go to great lengths to peel back life's outer layers and look at its deep, dark, dirty bits, but when it came to his own layers, he remained stubbornly unpeeled. One day, he was surely in for a nasty shock.

She had started. Started her work on the island. She'd begin early in the morning, hit afternoon, take a break, and start again. However, this wasn't work that you'd think. She'd been programming a new video game for her and Harlem to play. It mixed aspects of both their favorites. Horror and Puzzles.
Then, when she finished, they both would start. However, she would play for Harlem, of course.
