introduction

Life wasn't always easy. But when it got hard, Y/N had a solution: take a hollow plastic pumpkin and put it over her head.

No, seriously. It helped. It's a valid coping mechanism, goddammit.

But then Toby Rogers, a homeschooled outcast who might be even more of a freak than she is develops a morbid interest-or what normal people call a crush-on her. And she's also getting stalked by a mysterious entity called the Operator.

All of a sudden, Y/N's plastic pumpkin isn't enough to shield her away from the world and keep her safe anymore.

No, she wasn't going to take it off, but somehow, Toby was still interested in her even with it on.
