I wanted to say it's less of a fear of nudity and more of a fear of being in the situation where I am suddenly nude, but it occurred to me that is exactly what it is. I think it comes from people looking to me to lead by example or have the answers, the more I think about it. Although I do have dreams that also involve nudity that are much less..nightmareish in nature.

So you think I should wear a toga dress for Halloween?

I was hoping it would be a specific god, because then I could try to recall any number of the myths out there to figure out why you chose that one specifically.

You can have all the answers even while being nude, you know. If anything, I'd think that would just make your genius even more intimidating. Unless intimidating isn't what you're going for.

I think you should wear whatever you want for Halloween. But for reference, yeah, you did look pretty good in a toga.

The reference was generic, sorry. Though if you want me to assign a particular god to you like I'm a living embodiment of an internet quiz, I can do that. Off the top of my head, I'm thinking of Persephone, but I'll need time to think up a variety of in-depth analytical questions to say for sure.

Intimidating is what I’m sometimes going for. Not necessarily being the one who has all the answers in a bad way, but to avoid being underestimated. Knowledge is a good thing to have.

Maybe you just inspired me with a great costume idea.

That sounds like a typical dream, if you ask me. Some details mean things, some don’t. I was curious which ones might have meant something, but I’ll take Persephone to save you having to come up with in-depth analytical questions.

"To acquire knowledge, one must study; but to acquire wisdom one must observe." Knowing stuff is fine, but knowing how to apply what you know is the harder lesson for most people. So it's always fun to watch people falter when they realize you actually know what you're talking about AND what you're doing.

I would've figured you'd done the toga thing before. And that's not a tongue-in-cheek sorority girl comment.

Not gonna lie, though, the thought of you wrestling a werewolf and winning? Kinda hot.
