Wood-crafted faceless actors sloppily waltz through life; gripping tight to their personal poisons.  Never dare they meet eachother.  Never dare they interact.

"Face forward!  They won't notice your hollow face if they keep their focus on distraction.  They won't notice your broken face; be it they clinch to their own facelessness.  That white-knuckled clinch."

Julian hasn't belonged to anybody.  Some whisper that he never will.  (Whispering to themselves of course)

Dare Not Look Eachother In The Eyes.

Dare Not Speak.

Rebecca chokes on memories of Julian.  We all love Rebecca, but she'll drown on these memories.  Tell yourself that she couldn't have stopped him.  We know,

Shall we test you now?
You are walking through the bunker, as a well-dressed advocate asks your name.  What is your move?

"Dare Not Speak
Dare Not Look Eachother In The Eyes"  The little broken hollow faces said to themselves.
