[The live notification pings brightly, but once it goes to live audio, it's wind chimes and gentle relaxing tones (that definitely weren't taken from HellTube shh). Two teens and a beefy guy with no shirt are on screen, grinning]

Has life got your spirits down? Does your third eye maybe need glasses?

Come on down to the Spirit Emporium! Let us be your guide to enlightenment! With our proven techniques we'll be helping you get a clearer connection to yourself and the world around you, both seen and unseen, for a very reasonable price!

[She waggles spirit fingers, very on-brand]

Start with some guided meditation courses from a real-life spirit medium!

When that's done, swing on by and get some motivation from a personal motivational speaker.

After all that, you'll be ready to fill out a pep pop quiz about what you've gained from this fabulous, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

You owe it to yourself to find out just how the spirit can move you--or how you can move your spirit!

[Cheer is set up in front of the Lalaport fountain, the waters frozen into a conveniently shaped little igloo, large enough for two or three people to kneel inside]

Man, I don't know if anybody here's actually ready for a special training course...

[tothosewhobait]

Special training course?

[branchedout]

Mind if I jus' get the regular trainin' course?

[scattershot]

I didn't think there was anything much here to connect with. I certainly haven't felt anything, since I arrived here.

[The word is aether, Alisaie does not know the word is aether, she isn't even sure how you can explain when something isn't there but this place is definitely lacking in something vital, and she is here to LODGE A FORMAL COMPLAINT MAYBE.]

[forgottenmercy]

[tilts head inquisitively.]

[gravitydefier]

For what?

[childeishly]

I am the most ready. In fact I saw this Live coming with my third-eye.

Live: Inspirational speaking

[crossmyheartandhope]

Okay, my dudes, lemme know what the problem is, and I'll give you some sweet spiritual know-how to set stuff back on track.

Re: Live: Inspirational speaking

[ibedeadpeople]

Do I get a pep talk, too? Or is that only for paying customers?

[tothosewhobait]

My schoolmate lives in a haunted dorm.

Re: Live: Inspirational speaking

[scattershot]

What unit power is it that allows for this?

[Knocking on the walls of the ice igloo, hmm. This seems more like it somehow.]

Re: Live: Inspirational speaking

[childeishly]

Points. Points are the name of the problem. I need advice on rebecoming a sugar daddy.

[quickpersuader]

A very reasonable price of...?

[ibedeadpeople]

Cross my palm with silver and I'll show you the keys to your future~

[crossmyheartandhope]

Nothing. Inspiritional talk comes free, my dude.

Live: Serious poll

[send_noods]

[a serious poll shows up on live attendee phones:

State of my spirit post-session:

1) my third eye is open

2) all chakras aligned

3) spirit points]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Tapping in one]

Okay, but what if it's like... my fifth eye.

[tothosewhobait]

[Taps one]

All eyes and arms are open and waiting to receive wisdom from friends on the other side.

Re: Live: Serious poll

[byallmeans]

[Taps 3]

Re: Live: Serious poll

[ibedeadpeople]

...Can spirit points only be spent in the spirit world?

Re: Live: Serious poll

[quickpersuader]

[Hitting 3.]

Are you having fun?

Re: Live: Serious poll

[scattershot]

This all sounds potentially quite hazardous. Except for the points option.

Re: Live: Serious poll

[auguryofinnocence]

[Spirit points.

Thanks pal, take this nod in return.]

[byallmeans]

[Of course he's here. Points are involved]

[He may also be making sure the fountain igloo doesn't melt,]

Are you really going to teach people how to meditate?

[ibedeadpeople]

You can't possibly think that people here don't need an excuse to calm down.

[daios]

[Hi he hasn't been around for awhile, and probably looks a little run ragged.]

I understand the benefits of mediation, but what are the rest supposed to do for me?

[ibedeadpeople]

Mr. Hades!

[She does not say 'are you okay' but her expression does]

Rest might be more helpful than reaching out to the spirit world, I have to say...
