Noppera-bo

[*is a Japanese yokai with no eyes, nose or mouth on its face.]

I have severe astigmatism. So my vision is normally blurry. Recently, when I pass someone wearing a pink or beige skin-like mask for anti-COVID purposes, occasionally, they could look as a noppera-bo for a moment, which freaks me out. I think, "No way, no way...can’t be", but then I am rather suspicious of this. It may not be surprising to find ghosts and yokai-monsters hanging around, just not usually visible. And those who can see it can see it.

But they are not so dangerous. If you threaten them with a loud scream, they will run away in surprise. Or, "This is not the place for you to come. Please leave." If you ask them lightly to leave, they will leave immediately.

It is much more troublesome for living people. There is nothing more dangerous than a living person. If you try to scare them a little, you could be sued and they won't listen to you for free even if you ask them to leave.

When I thought about it, I couldn’t help thinking, "If only all the people around me were monsters, it would be much more peaceful".

のっぺらぼう

[＊のっぺらぼう（野箆坊）は、顔に目・鼻・口の無い日本の妖怪のこと]

わたしはひどい乱視です。だから、普段から視界がぼやけています。最近、COVID対策でピンクやベージュの肌っぽいマスクをしている人とすれ違うと、一瞬のっぺらぼうに見えることがあり、ビクッとします。「まさかァ、まさか…」と思いつつ、わりと疑っています。普段目に見えないだけで、幽霊や妖怪がウロウロしていてもおかしくはないのかもしれません。見える人には見えるし。

しかし、彼らはそれほど危険な存在ではありません。「わっ」って大きな声で威嚇すれば、驚いて逃げてしまいます。あるいは、「ここはあなたが来るところではありません。出て行ってください」と軽くお願いすれば、すぐに出て行ってくれます。

生きている人間の方がよっぽど厄介です。生きている人間ほど危険なものはない。下手に脅かそうものなら、訴えられかねないし、出て行ってくれと頼んだってタダでは言うことを聞いてくれやしない。

よくよく考えてみたら「いっそのこと、周りの人たちみんな、妖怪だったらよっぽど平和だ」と思っちゃいました。

OH i had the WORST dream

as backstory, i have this understanding with myself. nightmares are rare, and when i have them, all it takes is a quick reminder of the Agreement and suddenly it becomes a comedy. i dont know how this happened, but it did. all this to say that, at the time, i didn’t even register it as scary. if i had, it would’ve been different.

but i was playing sims, living my best life. sims walk past my sims house, like usual, when i notice that one is tall. very tall. about twice the size of an adult sim. naturally, i pause the game so i can click on it, maybe befriend this anomaly.

the sim had some generic long hair from the base game, and a mismatched outfit. randomly generated. a glitch, then.

however, as I turned the camera to look at it, i realized that it had no face, just a coin slot where its nose should be. clicking on it presented two options. the second one was meaningless. the first one simply said “scream at face.” there was nothing else to do but touch it.

in the strange logic of dreams, i reached up and touched its face. it was soft, almost foamy, and i realize that the coin slot must have been punched into it. the flesh around the slot was creased and wrinkled, as if the slot was clamping it down. as i pressed its cheek, the game still paused, i wonder what had caused this anomaly.

i never found an answer
