He says he’s not scared of the mirrors, but we know they work as portals. There’s a lot of folklore re: mirrors. Maybe they’d show what he really looks like, if he’s not human?
Manipulating Ollie here? She’s wondering if maybe he’s lonely, but it could be an act. He wants her to agree to stay so he wins by default and can’t leave?

“Your father’s happy now!” Said the smiling man. “He missed your mother so much. Every time he looked at you, he had to remember that she’s dead.”
Oh. OH. You son of a bitch.
I’m aware of the manipulation going on here, but… OH.

I get that she’s upset, but, like, she’s seeing a 5 minute window here. Are her friends & dad just not supposed to eat or anything for 6 months?

This is the last book, I wonder if we’ll see Cerberus turn up again. If I remember right, the kids got a boo from him in the first book. He’s supposed to come when they call. I’ll be so annoyed if they just forget about him.
Also, I wonder if Luke is the smiling man. Off to check what name he use in the first book. He definitely seems like he knows something.

SPOILER
?? They ret-conned it? End of last book, Ollie gave them a note saying S.M. Had made it so everyone but Brian & CoCo forgot her. Proved it with a conversation with her dad. Now they remember her, but think she’s dead?
