            The hardest masks to remove are more than cloth on flesh. Phantomness sighs as she combs out her hair, sitting in front of her vanity mirror. It’s not anything she wants to say explicitly, but it’s hard for her to cling to the Light. She still prefers the Dark side, even with all her rapid changes of heart, and she’s afraid that as soon as she loses her friends, her support, and her apprentice, she’ll fall off the precipice of sanity again.

            < You’ve always been a child of the dark. > Phantasmeon states, hopping onto her table, dislodging several lipsticks with one sweep of his tail.

            “I know,” Phantomness agrees, and still doesn’t know how to tell Flanoir the truth, much less S’oo or Kenneth.

            She thinks she’ll have to keep her masks a little longer.

Post-SWPKMN RPG but pre-extants, as per usual

Flanoir belongs to Jolty, Kenneth belongs to Backdraft, and S’oo belongs to Kiohl. Phantomness and Phantasmeon belong to me! ^^
