I scare children

Last night, Discipulus Legis and I went to a Halloween party. She was a bloodsucking, back-stabbing, ambulance-chasing lawyer from the personal injury firm of Dewey, Cheatem & Howe, and I was an accident victim. It was my first-ever costume where I used fake blood, and my amateur makeup artist skills may have been a little too good. I put blood streaks on my face and gave myself a black eye, and at the party, an eight- or nine-year-old girl dressed as a fairy princess, took a look at me, walked away, then came back and very seriously asked me: "Did something really happen to you?"

I scare children.
