Near the entrance of Crazy Idea Realm, there stands a helmeted guard

to protect those who might not be ready, might be offended, might get scarred. Ghostly armored is this sentry knowing unintended pain; at times he may seem distant cold, though this could be self-restraint… © 2009-2025 Z.F. Thrimej

Beyond the lookout, not just be on the lookout

(since observation and awareness also involve listening, and perhaps even smelling, touching, tasting, (and/or extrasensory perception) depending on how close, distant, or weird that which is being looked out for (or that which may not even be expected) is).

While they may be in the line of fire, they can deflect the potential accusation of not paying attention by claiming to see other areas away from the center of their stare.
