Of all the demons and monsters in your mind, I'm the one you find most intimidating? Why, I'm flattered.

You may have heard that it's a bad thing to have me in your head, but I'm not the one who can, even in your imagination, do you damage. I am abnormal and glad to be so, but there are things in here more fearsome than a young artist. Even one who has chosen such an unusual medium as I have.

So to know that I am more unnerving than aliens and demons, faeries and gods? That is a fine gift.

Men often fall prey to their own darkness. What is more unnerving that recognize the innate flaws of your own species?

Dog-sized spiders, perhaps?

[Joking to answer a rhetoric question, nonetheless she/he asks.]

Is that what you fear the most?

[fine_young]

Hardly. That's just one of the more potentially-unnerving things I share space with.
