Fallout Masks

Chibi:
If I wear a mask, am I lying?
Mara:
No.
Chibi:
What if I pretend I’m brave?
Mara:
That’s practicing.
Chibi:
Practicing for what?
Mara:
For tomorrow.
Chibi:
People wore masks before the bombs too, right?
Mara:
Yes.
Chibi:
Did it help?
Mara:
Sometimes.
Chibi:
Then why did everything break?
Mara:
Because grown-ups forgot which masks were games.
Chibi:
And which ones were forever?
Mara:
Yes.
Chibi:
I like masks that come off.
Mara:
Me too.
Chibi:
Can we keep this one just for tonight?
Mara:
Of course.
Chibi:
Good.
Mara:
Good.

exploring play, ritual, and survival after the bombs —

This is where Fallout remembers
how to be gentle without forgetting the damage.
