[ ah. ]

Oh yeah? And I was thinking you lot were just enjoying yourselves down there.

[ siiiiiiip. ]

Though I guess that does bring up the issue of how you got down there.

[crashout]

You really sure it was downstairs? Nobody else saw anything, did they? [He's not immediately providing an answer, but...Zero seems smart enough.]

takes a stab at this??? yolo??????

[fleuris]

[ is Zero smart enough? maybe. is traverse? absolutely not. ]

... This place really is screwed up. How the hell does sound get from up there to just the first floor?

Or was that a bunch of bullshit too?

[crashout]

[There's a tilted grin.]

We never went down to the basement. Pretty sure sound was broadcasted down there when we were checking things out.

[fleuris]

I hate magic.

[ this is stupider than Three's fucking riddle boxes. ]

You didn't answer the last question either - did you three even do any fucking at all?

[crashout]

I didn't fuck anybody, no. [Call him boring, but there you go.]

[fleuris]

If you're not trying to drink away bad sex, then why are you here?

[ aka what the fuck happened to you ]

[crashout]

[Well. That's a loaded question!]

...I'm still trying to figure out what just happened.

[fleuris]

[ yeah, it's easy to ask those when you don't care about feelings or propriety. ]

Drinking doesn't really help with that.

[ sure is great for blacking out though! ]

What do you think happened?

[crashout]

It does, actually. [Don't ask. But uh.]

I think we got a warning message from someone who was already here.

[fleuris]

Spoken like a true addict.

[ zERO you hypocrite ]

... Was, but isn't anymore? Great. Ghosts are the worst.

So was the warning about the people or the place?

[crashout]

[There's a low laugh. Yeah, yeah. Sure. She's allowed to think that.]

Pretty sure it was about both. Ghosts is a pretty close answer.

[fleuris]

[ well, she's not his mother so. it's not like she'll do anything abt it besides snippy comments every now and then. ]

If you see one again, make sure you stab it.

[crashout]

[Which is nice, thank you Zero. Let him live his life, it's one of. Multiple he has, apparently.]

If it's a ghost, can you see it to stab it?

[fleuris]

Of course. They might go intangible or whatever, but they always show up again.

[ if ghosts are monsters are they still ghosts though... ]

Unless it's different where you're from?

[crashout]

I've never encountered ghosts, so I couldn't really tell you. But there's a first time for everything isn't there?

[fleuris]

From what you've said, you've already met one. Congratulations.

[ ghost and recordings both exist in her world so...... he'll have to specify. ]

So, what next?

[crashout]

Depends. Got any ideas how to make contacts with vengeful spirits who might want to rip our faces off? [It's dry enough that he might not be serious, but, well.]

[fleuris]

Fuck if I know. They usually come looking for me, not the other way around.

[ hmmmm ghosts usually hung around unburied corpses, so... ]

You could leave a dead body out for them. Or maybe just a limb, if you're only trying to lure them out.

[ HM, who do they BOTH KNOW that has an extra LIMB lying around ]

[crashout]

[Well that's unfortunate and he'll come back to that soon because what the hell, but.]

You mean like the arm you're carrying around? Unless that's not a real arm. [Yeah. We're going that way with this.]

[fleuris]

[ it's called being pragmatic and resourceful, thank you very much. ]

... You mean this arm? [ lifts her left arm. you know. the big, black, armored one with sharp claws for fingers. ]

[crashout]

[Thank god he's not stupid enough to say that isn't a real arm, but uh. He's eyeballing it before he takes a sip of his drink like this isn't weird.]

Okay, so maybe not that arm. Are you thinking of another arm? [Willfully ignorant or just unaware? Cast your votes now.]

[fleuris]

[ he doesn't get to call it weird when he hasn't seen how it works. ]

There's a guy with someone else's arm. He was yelling about it when we got here.

[ is it both? it can be both, can't it? ]

[crashout]

[Don't tempt him, he will ask? But ah. Ahaha. He just kind of...shakes his head.]

Oh that. Yeah, I'm probably not gonna use that one.

[fleuris]

[ come on, ask, you coward, she ain't shy. >:) ]

Why not? The guy made it clear he didn't want it. [ a pause. ] Unless he was lying about that. Fucking perverts...

[ i'm sorry. ]
