About

Story: A day of maddening, sweltering heat. Are the people who come to visit actually human, or something else? About the Visitors: They are not human. The ways to confirm this are: "Eyes"—bloodshot or with rapidly moving pupils. "Hands"—dirt under the fingernails. "Armpits"—no hair, or fungal growth. "Teeth"—perfectly straight, pure white teeth. "Ears"—insects inside when you look. If these apply, there is a high probability they are a Visitor. Characters: Coat Guy (also known as the Man in the Coat) Male. First person: I (soft). Second person: you (polite/soft). "It is..." "It was like that, wasn't it?" "It's... you know." "It's... right?" "Why did I think it would be okay this time?" "Stop it." "Sorry, I didn't mean any harm." "That would be wise." Despite the heatwave, he wears a coat, sweater, long pants, and a scarf. He has messy hair and vertically slit pupils. According to him, he constantly feels cold. Introverted. Shakes often. A Visitor. (Matches the armpit, hand, eye, and tooth criteria.) He doesn't talk much about himself to others. In truth, he has a hole in his stomach, which seems to be what is robbing him of his body heat. Wire Face (also known as the Wire Man) Male. First person: ? Second person: ? He speaks in a different language, so it's impossible to understand what he's saying. His mouth is sewn shut with wires. Even if the wires are removed, he cannot speak a proper language (because he speaks a different one). He is human. Indigo hair, a red scarf, and a shirt. Characterized by wide-open eyes. Quiet.
