Dear Softstone,

We, the unmasking committee of the ID division of the NSC, have carefully examined your report and considered all relevant evidence. Thank you for being so thorough in your description—not having to call you for further information streamlined our process greatly. As you can imagine, the holiday season is a very busy time for us. You might not know that we have a saying here: “More unmaskings take place at Mom’s house than anywhere else in the country.”

Having reviewed the evidence, we have determined that this is a guiltless unmasking—and though noted on your record, will not count in any way as a breach of conduct. Some members of our committee felt you should be reprimanded for maintaining an ongoing relationship with romantic overtones while in costume, but the majority held this to be a harmless activity. (This is a gray area of NSC regulations of course, but most of us do agree that continued interaction with “Titania” was not the wisest action you could have taken.)

Your case was further sped along because Brooklyn Haupenstaat already has a record with the SecretKeepers. As always in such situations, we encourage you not to inquire as to the reason for her preexisting record but to instead respect the privacy of those around you to the degree that you would want them to respect yours.

Because you described a romantic element in your relationship with this young women, policy requires that you contact us immediately in the event of the dissolution of your close ties, and keep us informed if she at any time ceases to view you with good will.

(Off the record J-man, I’ve seen her pic and read her bio. Not only is she beautiful, but that girl’s going places in life. Don’t screw this up, cause if she’s as great in person as she is on paper, you’ve got a keeper there.)
