Oh, player of mine!

You've been allowing me to have such fun in game events that, in exchange, I'll forgive you for that little flashlight trick in Haven. That is, I'll forgive you if you allow me to have just a little more fun over here. Does that sound good? Yes? Excellent! Let's begin.

Attention, children!

I challenge all of you-- every last one-- to a game of hide and seek. My particular version is perfect for those brave souls who enjoy being scared-- I know you horror movie and haunted house fans are out there. Those who don't like that sort of thing are, of course, just as welcome to join in-- after all, it's only a game, right?

I hide. You seek. No need to count; I'm a very fast hider.

Ready?

Why are you challenging children to do this?

[Isn't he too old to play with children.]

It's a game. Children like games.

Forgive me to point this out, though you look too old to play with children.

I'm a spirit. There's no such thing.

I can see that. Though I was wondering what sort of spirit wishes to play games with children?

[She's a little cautious after Bluebeard used a bunch as sacrifices to summon Lovecraftian demons and torture them into becoming living furniture.]

One who's glad that the children can see him.

You are avoiding the answer. State your name, Spirit. What kind are you? Divine? Heroic? Elemental? Phantasmal? Monstrous?

How young's a kid?

[crosses arms-- he's 14, so he technically stills counts maybe. better do something before somebody younger and dumber wanders in.]

Oh, let's say twelve and under. But I suppose I can be flexible.

How old are you?

Fourteen.

My turn. What are you? 'Cause you don't look much like a person.

I'm not-- I'm a spirit.

Huh.

The good kind or the mean kind? 'Cause y'know, if you're out here doin' bad thing to kids I gotta do something about it.

[like tell a teacher. or the police.]

What if I'm neither?

[o-oh jeez, those eyes are creepy...]

Is there a such thing, though?

I mean, you like kids 'cause you care for 'em or you like 'em 'cause you're getting ready for a snack.

And you don't think there's any middle ground there? How limiting.

'S not like they tell stories about neutral spirits.

That's their problem.

Fine.

So what do you do with the kids, mister neutral spirit?

Hide and Seek, huh? Can anyone join in?
