Tinkertech Mask

Kenzie nudged me, as a back-and-forth followed.


She had my new mask.


"You don't have to stay," I whispered to her. In case she was distracting herself from proceedings.


She shook her head.


I took my mask, and I tried it on. It covered my upper face, nose, cheekbones, eyes, brow. The projection clicked as it set into place. Lookout provided the hand-mirror.

It was black, and faint lines and spires of gold traced a pattern across it. They would be faint beneath the shadow of my hood. The part over my lower face was some limited protection, but projected to be see-through. More projection was devoted to the image that covered the rather large eyeholes, that maximized peripheral vision.
