Hel: "What mask? That's my real face! ...what, doesn't your real face come off?"

"...okay, fiiiiiine. Here's the deal: things say a lot more when you choose them yourself, right? Like, many folks choose new names when they know more about who they are. Tons of folk choose new styles or clothes to show off themselves, too. Some find new words that better show their sexuality, or their gender, or anything! So why not choose your own faces?"

"The face under here? It couldn't launch a thousand ships. The face I wear, though? I can intrigue, I can tease, I can be whatever I want! And I'm Helena Troi, so I'll give anyone Hel! Now, isn't that the face that really matters?"
