indeed perhaps there is truth. isn’t that how johanna learned nearly everything she knew about the judge? the way his eyes were never on hers, the way his gaze traveled over her as if she was some sort of prey told her everything. she does not like the way she cannot see this stranger’s face nor the way he dodges her question. of course, she would be lying if she doesn’t admit to do the same thing, but it is different when confronted by a masked stranger.
❝ so wearing a mask tells me something about yourself? ❞ her head tilts at the other as if she might learn something more about him with the action. nothing is revealed. not that she expected it. ❝ do you not want people to see yourself? is that why you don’t show your face? ❞
