double your live, double your fun

[unbr8kable]

Who: Everyone
Where: Just outside the hotel
When: Day 30, early morning

[There're a table and some chairs set up outside of the front entrance. Hurricane and Nemesis are seated there like those kids looking for passers-by to sign their petitions or sponsor animals. A modest sign in front says "Free Cheer"]

Buttpats! Get'cher buttpats here!

Pep talks, dude, don't give people the wrong idea.

It's not for us to say what motivates people. I mean, in this case it kind of literally is, but whatever.

Anyway, stop on by and gimme a couple of words. Whatever you pick, I’ll do the whole motivational speech thing about it.

And I swear to help out, or if there's something else you need, I guess. Either way, points.

[The app indicates this is a double live.]

[Said in all honesty and a bit of bitterness.]

He actually does a better job of looking out. Not for a lack of trying.

[unbr8kable]

...Please don't make me say the feel-good shmoopy lines. Hurricane is right there; he's actually good at that sort of thing. Look, you're not a shitty brother. I don't know exactly what you're worrying about but consider not doing it because you're fine, okay?

[rollwithdisadvantage]

[It takes him a moment to process what she's saying before he outright laughs.]

HAHAHA. I don't need a pick me up. I'm just mad he was more useful than I was in the haunted house.

[unbr8kable]

Wait, what? ...Also, when I saw him, all he did was take a nap.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Gold and I got into a fight. He was trying to drown me in the fountain because the voices in his head told him so. I'd have kicked the bucket right there if it weren't for his help.

Took a nap, did he? Good for him. He was there entirely too long.

[Motioning for her to come a bit closer as he whispers.]

Hurricane is not okay. I'm actually concerned about him.

[unbr8kable]

...You're brothers and buddies, aren't you supposed to want to help each other out?

[a bit hollow, which becomes even more so once she hears his whisper]

Yyyeah, I am well aware. I get it, just...

[helpless shrug. no pep talk's gonna fix that.]

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Of course, we are. I just don't like to be showed up. Also, he had a lot harder time when he was there. I was just adding problems.

[Shakes his head and echos.]

Yeah. Just let me know if he needs anything. Or you for that matter. It's been one hell of time recently, and I'm still trying to figure out where everyone stands.

[unbr8kable]

Yeah, well, it happens. Next time level up that evil ghost affinity score and you should be fine.

[crosses her arms, picking at the glove on her right hand; lowers her voice even further]

...If any of you guys ever need anyone to do anything or just hang out, call him, maybe? He doesn't seem to do too good with being alone.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Tch. If the ghosts were really idols passed then they should have been helping us not causing more problems.

[He laughs.]

Annoy him, you say? Good thing that is on my list of skills.

[Then more seriously.]

You have anything about that last game you want to get off your chest.

[unbr8kable]

Too bad none of the evil ghosts just wanted to overthrow the establishment.

[she relaxes a bit]

Seems like it. He needs more annoyances in life!

[then, light]

Thought we were supposed to be the ones giving the pep talks.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Can't even hold their grudges into the afterlife. What kind of ghost is that?

[He laughs.]

Consider it gathering information. And honestly I'm beginning to realize I'd rather have people just scream their head off about it than internally take it all in.

[unbr8kable]

A pretty lame one. Those grudges are supposed to be the reason you're even here!

[she shifts]

How's it working so far?
