New game:
Who's that in the mirror?
If you're like me, you don't spend a lot of time looking at yourself in the mirror.
Next time you do: be surprised.
If wearing glasses, take them off: dramatically.
Approach the stranger your seeing, as if for the first time.
Scan the face, the jawline, trace the cheekbones with your thumb.
Test out the smile muscles- THAT! That smile! Where did that smile come from? What was the first thing this stranger smiled at with this smile.
furrow your brow and ask where they mastered it. Schoolyard professors. Board room meetings. At the battle upon the rainy weir.
Ask these questions of your strange visitor.
When it is time to walk away, and you will know when it is time, bid your mirror-folk farewell.
You lose if you challenge them to a staring contest.
Other than this, you win just by playing.
Bonus points if you actually make contact with a mirror dimension.
Bonus points revoked if they invade and conquer our dimension.
