I’ve dealt with proclaimed ghosts and shadow monsters and demons, too. Fangs, wings, fur and smoke in the wrong places. I wouldn’t worry about either impressing or horrifying me with how things appear. I’ll probably still think on what the person’s strengths and weaknesses might be that are perceivable, but I do that with everyone just in case.
Not that it’s on my future list, but I’d be inclined to how your dad perceived things, too. If a lie is good it should be rewarded.
I can imagine you would have. It’s changed even in my time and I haven’t hit three decades yet. I enjoy picking up regional slang a lot, being in a port city. You get a lot of variations of it from people that visit or move here. And accents to go along with it.
