Success

'I feel his hot breath on my face even when I'm awake…'

Your friend is scared; too scared to conceal the wound on her arm […]

She smiles at your reassurances. Her smile is red-lipped and sharp-toothed. The cicatrix on your own forearm begins to ache as you talk. The pain doesn't die down until morning.

Failure

'I see his brimstone eyes whenever I close my own...'
