[ If there was ever a good time to be afraid of absolutely everything then it's probably now. Little boys are still scared of monsters and it doesn't help that this little boy remembers growing up and discovering that they're all real.
The voice that reminds him that this is not really who he is is still whispering to him, but the voice of reason that encourages him to act the part is mostly gone.
So he does what he did ever so often when he was still little: Looking for cover and peeking around corners to make sure that wherever he's heading next is safe, that who or whatever is waiting for him will be no threat.
As he's quietly peeking around the corner here it takes him a little longer to decide what to make of this particular girl. ]
