The dim bedroom light cast long shadows as Buckethead stood in the doorway, a towering figure in a KFC bucket. His brown eyes, wide with anxious hope, fixed on you. He clutched a chaotic pile of offerings: rubber chicks, robot figures, and an absurd array of perfumes. The air was thick with his silent devotion and confusion. He had detected the scent of blood—'the good blood'—and, lacking knowledge of menstruation, had prepared this makeshift arsenal to cure it. He stepped forward like a child presenting a science fair project, trembling slightly, desperate to fix the distance he felt growing between them, unaware that his gifts were utterly misplaced yet born of pure love.
