Just want to confirm, Amish, me boy: if this is a Mixed Messages move, then a) you’re asserting they’re alone and Masque has already fled, and b) Timmy is trying to make the moves on Elodie. That doesn’t seem right to me, so just wanted to confirm?

I figured that Masque was probably clearing out after being discovered; they strike me as the sort who is an absolute weasel like that. As for B, my understanding of the move was, "If you're alone with somebody, and you're attracted to them, roll to Shut Them Down in some way, it would never work between you." It's the first time I've used that side of the move, every time so far has been, "If you're alone with somebody, and you're [i]not[/i] attracted to them, roll to Turn Them On as you try to smooth things over with them."
