Why? Stories are fun.

[outthefrontdoor.livejournal.com]

They've - they've just got so much more weird in than real life that if they started coming true...

[blackandbluemix.livejournal.com]

But... darling. {{crouches and takes her hand}} Stories are just stories, right?

[outthefrontdoor.livejournal.com]

[hunches, wary at the touch and the kind words but kind of stressed right now so they're pretty much welcome.] I don't know, anymore.

{{squeezes her hand a little}} You shouldn't worry. What's your name?

[halfthemistake.livejournal.com]

No... they're for fun.

[outthefrontdoor.livejournal.com]

Depends on the story, I think.

[halfthemistake.livejournal.com]

They're not supposed to be... someone telling you scary stories?

[outthefrontdoor.livejournal.com]

... Sort of.

Lester, can I tell you something and you've got to keep it a secret, Lester?

[whisky-ghost.livejournal.com]

Yes. They're dangerous, but you can learn all the secrets of the world from them, if you're careful.

[outthefrontdoor.livejournal.com]

Why careful?

[whisky-ghost.livejournal.com]

Well, because they're dangerous.
If you aren't careful, they could eat you up. But if you're careful and smart and clever, everything you ever needed can be got from them.

[outthefrontdoor.livejournal.com]

Like... warnings. Like, read between the lines and find out if they're planning to eat you up - I don't wanna be eaten up.
