[MEME] OH NO A GHOST

[wolfintheattic]

OKAY LET'S GET DOWN TO BUSINESS.
I wanna play a ghost. Below are some prompts.
I'm not super picky about setting or 'verse.

A- Your character is a paranormal investigator, an obnoxious tv show host, or is otherwise exploring an area that is said to be haunted for whatever reason. Maybe it's a dare.

B- My character's ghost just SHOWS UP in your character's home. Did your character buy some haunted shit off ebay? Maybe my character died nearby or was summoned via Ouija board by some stupid teenagers at that party you hosted last month. Either way, you got yourself a haunted house now. Congrats.

C- Your character is also a ghost. Maybe they died together. Maybe my character is new to this whole being dead thing and yours shows them the ghostly ropes. Maybe it's the other way around. Either way, ghost adventures are had. _{Not currently looking for new PLSs with this plot!}

D- Your character is a necromancer-type-person and has summoned mine's spirit to do their bidding.

E- Your character is an exorcist and is here to shoo mine out of their current haunt or otherwise help them move on.

F- Our characters are friends. Mine died and has returned to hang out/help/finish some business with yours.

G- Your character moves into the house mine is currently haunting. EXCUSE U.

H- POSSESSION. It happened somehow.

IF A CHARACTER YOU WANT TO MEET IS MISSING, LET ME KNOW.

Weeeeellllll she figured it out pretty quickly, but the RA was super chill and didn't like the girl either. I had to do some community service hours just to say I got punished, but I was already doin' them so it wasn't that big of a deal.

She moved too! Bridget 'nd I have roomed together since.

Atta girl! Friends in high places. I'm proud of you, Naomi.

_{[The ghost beams...but slowly notices the way the world looks outside the window that he'd forced her to open. There were far more houses now. And far less trees. His smile is fading fast.]}

[serenesuccessor]

[She beams back at him, then does a little curtsy in lieu of a bow. The smile softens slightly as she watches his attention turn to the window. Biting her lip she tucks a stray bit of black hair behind her ear.]

They built a new neighborhood I think. Oh! And they got rid of that big tree I used to climb!

[The same one she fell out of and broke her arm. She could still remember that bright orange cast.]

[goldeneyeball]

_{[The ghost heaves a sigh and finally gestures for her to follow him downstairs where all of their decorations and memories wait. Once he's there, he looks around at the state of things.]}

Can't turn my back for one minute and the whole place goes to pot...kinda makes me wonder what'll happen to me when the old place finally falls in. I can't chase people away from a pile of rubble.

[serenesuccessor]

[She nibbles a bit more on her bottom lip.]

Can't'cha leave? I mean you can totally come haunt my dorm! Or my house. Or Kou's apartment!

[Naomi don't volunteer your brother. Das rude.

[goldeneyeball]

_{[He moves his dark gaze towards the kid--no, the young lady, with a sigh.]}

If I could, I would have left ages ago. There's something...here--

_{[He gestures to his chest.]}

--that pulls on me when I try to leave the threshold.

[serenesuccessor]

[She listens, humming a little as she clasps her hands behind her back, rocking forward onto her toes and back to her heels.]

Then we gotta figure out how to get rid of that!!! It's not nice to make you stay someplace forever that's borin'.

[goldeneyeball]

_{[JW rolls his eyes, some of his snark finally resurfacing.]}

You're telling me. Well, Sherlock, snoop out something that'll get me out of this dump!

[serenesuccessor]

C'mon then Watson. The game is afoot!

[She giggles, already making her way out of the room.]

Let's check the basement first. Stuff is always hidden down there!

[goldeneyeball]

_{[He watches her go, arms slack at his sides.]}

I meant the internet. I heard it has the answers to everything.

<sub>[Regardless, he easily sinks through the floor and waits for her at the bottom of the basement steps. The room is just as disheveled as the rest of the house. Most of the walls are taken up with long work benches that JW used to do all his carving and leather working on. Old jars of preserves and specimens of all sorts of creepy crawlies loom from a tall shelf below the stairs.]

[Also there are crates. There are always crates in a basement.]</sub>

[serenesuccessor]

That's too easy! [She hollers back, pausing for a minute.] 'sides you don't have a computer!

[At least to her knowledge he didn't, but if he did she might have to drag her laptop over. Not to research, but to show him all the cool things on netflix. She's pretty sure someone hasn't had a proper dose of Disney related things since she moved.

She hops down the last few steps of the basement, pausing as she looks at the basement. She's not sure she's ever been down here. Naomi's gaze moves from the work benches curious to the crates.]

What's in the- Eeeeek! [The question is quickly abandoned as a spider drops down from the ceiling to look at her. The scream gains another pitch as she stumbles back a step or two and then quickly runs to hide behind the ghost.] Gross, gross, gross!!!

[goldeneyeball]

But what about that amazing phone of yours! It plays cat videos and everything!

<sub>[He's quick to call back, his voice resonating through the house. JW easily beats her to the basement and waits, watching her descend, ready to catch her should she slip on the old stairs. His mind starts to wander though. Could he really have had an answer down here all these years? Sure he's got tons of old books stashed away from when he used to be a low-rent ghostbuster but--]

[His train of thought is derailed when the girl lets out a shriek and hides behind his transparent form. Through which the spider is still easily visible, though more greenish.]</sub>

You're scared of that itty bitty spider but you aren't scared of me. I really have lost my touch.

_{[JW, that's mean.]}
