After a bit, she says "so what do I do now?"
He takes a moment to think too. "I guess... we all have to ask that at some point. I'd say maybe learn to Cloak, get a job, develop or adopt a philosophy of life, and work on that. You could be a hero or a villain, but a civilian Nightmare is quite rare. Not impossible, but unusual."

*Tired. Stayed up late watching The Electric State with my family.*
*I want to make a new Nightmare, but I'm having fun with Amatarou and I don't want that to end.*
*hm. I really like Amatarou. What was your idea for the new nightmare, out of curiosity?*
*I’m having quite a bit of fun with the Mother of Puppets.*
*Out of curiosity, what do you like about Amatarou?*
*The idea is the Nightmare of Poor Health, especially Poor Eating, but that's as far as I've gotten so far. He's the manager of the Waffle House.*
*I quite enjoy the duality of all of his interactions with humans and nightmares, on one hand he’s a super nice guy who works at a Boba place, and then he’s talking about how sloth and stagnancy are his greatest weapons with a spider demon. It’s just really interesting.*
*ooh, awesome!*
*out of curiosity, what do you think of the Mother of Puppets?*
*On one hand, great guy, likes cats, friendly to just about everyone. On the other hand, literal lord of nightmare demons.*
*They're nice and spooky. Mysterious and superb. Strong fey vibes, as expected. I like them.*

Hi, I'm Anders. I like wreaking havoc in TTRPGs and listening to Swedish Death Metal. I currently am in the process of starting a campaign, GMed by your's truly. Entombed is a great band, you should check 'em out.

"Maybe... can you help me learn to cloak?"

"Of course. When I'm on break, of course. Most people like to pretend Nightmares don't exist, so training one right in the cafe isn't good for business." He sits down and steeples his fingers. "What did you think of the tea?"

He nods. "Cool. How long would you like to fight before I kill you and Iago? I'm thinking at least a month." His calm tone hasn't changed a bit. Blood begins to stain the paper doll, making it look a little like the Slink.
His eyes flash, almost like headlights on a winding road at the dead of night. A smile grows across his face, and you seem to detect a hint of rage boiling beneath it. "Iago's in on this too, huh?" He loudly slurps down the last cluster of slimy pearls and crushes the plastic cup in his hand. He throws it at a nearby trash bin and it bounces off the rim of the can and onto the floor spilling ice onto the ground. "A month sounds like plenty of time."
"He has no idea about this, and he will think he's just being attacked for no reason until someone informs him." He gets a broom from the closet and begins to clean up. "Don't worry about staying dead. I have no use for a car, so I think I'll just drive it off the Beach." The blood begins to pool and drizzle onto the floor. "But if you kill any of my other friends, I'll up the pressure and the time. Or you could just ask, if it gets boring for you and you desire a novel kind of pain. I'll make diamonds of you two yet."
He stands up, "You're on, Cat-Face." He walks over to the door and turns with a wicked grin on his face, "And what if you die?"

The Violence Nightmare is still on break, and is going for a walk, well, considering the chains on him, it's more of a shamble than a walk, avoiding as many groups of people as he can.

"At that point, there wouldn't be a town left to worry about. But under those circumstances, I guess you'd have to decide what you do." He closes his eyes slowly. "And please, take care of yourself. I care." He continues sweeping.

He tilts his head silently, before beginning to walk over to them, looking down at them, seemingly with concern.
She turns to face him, and he can see the wounds on her arms and chest, and smell the stench of death emanating from her. She drops the guitar, seemingly in panic
