After talking to Bucky (and reading Teja's note), X cannot ignore the sharp demands of her mission parameters anymore.
The sickness is problematic, and so is the knocking people unconscious -- particularly in the bar proper.
Which means, if this Slenderman is out there -- someone has to explain the rules. And enforce them. And since X is one of the least-affected people she's met, it seems like a not-terrible idea to be the one to try.
She brings back-up, of course. And Elle has met the Slenderman before. Maybe that will . . . aid in their efficacy.
Though the sight of the decrepit house by the lake is not particularly comforting, in that regard.
Still. Needs must.
Which is why X begins making her approach, not even trying to be quiet.
