I'm pretty sure my niece and boyfriend/ex...I don't really know how that works with knowing what's waiting at home. Anyways, I'm sure they left a lot out or hadn't met any of it yet. I'm sure I'll learn more about what is happening at home or other supernatural creatures at some point.
You should always be yourself and own who you are. As long as who you are is not trying to kill me or my family, then yes, I'm all for being who you are. No one should feel they have to hide who they are cause I know I tend never to hide who I am from people.
