Mom dresses as the Queen of Hearts for Halloween Step 2, haha. What's your answer to this riddle?

Pure Text:

“She grinned at you, showing the gleeful cruelty of a person who sentenced anyone who crossed her to decapitation.”

“Your [Mom] [didn’t get over the holiday after a few times. She fell deeper into the rabbit hole every year/fell deeper into the Halloween rabbit hole every year].” #if mc didn’t know/celebrate Halloween before coming

opal “Hello, [subject/[costume]]. Before you move another inch, I haaave a riddle for you.” #if mc normal clothes or costume

“[Mom] slowed and sped her speech for effect. She sashayed into the room; her big old skirt bobbed side to side with a life of its own.”

opal “If you can answer it, you will be allowed [to take three pieces of candy from my treasury/leave my kingdom in one piece/to be left in peace and in one piece].” #if mc tricking or treating, going out, or staying home

opal “If not… who knows what will become of you? It will depend on my mood a few minutes from now. You wouldn’t want to count on that, would you?”

Menu:

-““I shall answer your riddle, your Highness.””:

-““Bring it on, [Mom]- I mean Queen.””:

-““I’ve been waiting for this! What’s the question?””:

-““Okay.””:

-““Uuum, don’t make it too hard, alright?””:

-““Fine… so annoying.” You mumbled your complaints.”:

-““Why do you always have to be like this?” You were completely fed up.”:

-““You can’t stop me from leaving.”” if going out:

-““Can you please just let me go?” if going out”:

-““You can’t stop me from turning on the TV.”” if staying:

-““Can you please just give me a break?” if staying”:

-““Sorry, I really don’t have time, [Mom]!”” if going:

-“Bring it on. You rubbed your hands together.”:

-“Oh, there the remote was. You completely brushed [Mom] off and went to the couch.” if staying:

-“Yes! You’d been waiting for [Mom]’s holiday riddle.”:

-“Alright. You stood there.”:

-“You dropped your face into your hands. Why did she always have to do this?”:

-“She couldn’t actually stop you. You went towards the door.”:

-“Rubbing your neck, you nodded. Hopefully it wouldn’t be too hard.”:

-“You frantically waved. Sorry, [Mom], you didn’t have time to waste.”:

-“You glared a hole through her. Get it over with.”:

######## end menu

If you are taking the riddle:

“Her expression remained controlled; she ruled her own features, but [Mom] did allow for her eyes to narrow.”

opal “Then here is my riddle: I can be found all around, yet the more of me, the less you see. What am I?”

the clash between loving this as an adult and knowing my teenage MCs are going to die of embarrassment like mum why, you're not cool

Everyone is saying darkness but my first thought was light. Like, you can't look at the sun lol.

Now that I see other people with the answer, 'darkness' feels like the obvious pick. ... But I did just brainfart on the riddle and go 'I mean, there are a lot of trees in this town, and if you're surrounded by them it's kinda hard to see very far, so..." ... I have a feeling Opal/Mom is used to her kid being this way by now. xD

Even if any of my MCs stick around or go out to do anything other than going Trick-or-Treating, they'd still do Opal's riddle. As far as they'd figure, it's a Halloween tradition they have with Opal. 🎃🍬🍬🍬😁

Darkness comes to mind first but it could fog too??

Fog was my first thought! I'd imagine darkness is the correct answer though, fog isn't necessarily "found all over" the way darkness is
