GHOST HUNT (the Prequel)

[copyrights]

Who: YOU
Where: THE GAME TOWER
When: NOW!!!

[You arrive to the game tower where today, the atmosphere seems to be quite s~p~o~o~k~y. Fog seems to cover the entire floor area and any visible area of the tower is covered by things like (fake) spiderwebs and also (fake) spiders hanging around in (fake) trees.

It would probably feel a little more spookier if it wasn't for the fact that music is blaring throughout the tower. Someone is a host today, but it's impossible to tell whom considering they're covered in a white sheet with holes cut out for eyes.

Until they talk anyway.]

I GOT A ★~★~PROMOTION~★~★

To host the greatest haunted house party that you can imagine!! But w-w-w-wait, haunted houses are s-scary! I don't wanna make you guys get too scared so we'll start small . . .

Small . . . tiny . . . miniscule . . .

It's still gonna be dangerous though!! Ghosts are PRETTY uncontrollable, ya know~? I've seen SAWoleen XVI, I know how it goes!!

[Surely not.

Well.

Hopefully his team squeaked out a win, but if not, at least he knows where to start with fixing this. For now, he'll just settle down and watch the others filter in.]

[Hesitates, then sits down beside him]

Re: End Game

[bondsofsuffering]

[He has no way of knowing, and he doesn't move or react in any way, eyes still on the doors as people return from their own rooms.]

Re: End Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

[After a little while, he shifts]

[Not much, but possibly enough to bump against Izanagi]

[He can probably feel the change in temperature; certainly, all the hairs along his arms stand on end]

Re: End Game

[bondsofsuffering]

[Definitely startling and looking around at that.]

Re: End Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Startles a little, himself, at the response, turning to look]

Re: End Game

[bondsofsuffering]

[That... was weird. He settles down again, but he's still glancing around.]

The ghosts... can't escape from the rooms too, right...?

Re: End Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Hhhesitates]

[And pokes him, very gently]

Re: End Game

[bondsofsuffering]

[Bolting to his feet this time. He does actually look right where Hurricane is this time, but since he sees nothing, he begins glancing around again.]

Re: End Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Ah,]

[Backing off a little,]

Re: End Game

[bondsofsuffering]

[...Still nothing again.

Looking down at Hurricane's body, though.]

Should I move it...?

Re: End Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

[It is very still, and very quiet]

[It does not move at all]

[But possibly the flashlight on the floor by Izanagi's feet rolls a little]

Re: End Game

[bondsofsuffering]

[...

Picks... up... the flashlight?

If he flicks it on is his sanity low enough to Perceive a Hero.]

Re: End Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

[He might think he catches a glimpse of something, jsut for an instant]

[Probably not, though. Probably it's just that sanity stat playing tricks on him]

Re: End Game

[bondsofsuffering]

[Blinking and rubbing at his eyes wearily.

Please he already survived this game is it really continuing out here too..........]

Re: End Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Nothing there. Huh. Weird]

[But the UV flashlight is rolling a little, now]

Re: End Game

[bondsofsuffering]

[He catches sight of that as he raises his head again and.

Okay did he actually see that or is he seriously just imagining things now.]

Re: End Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Well, if he's imagining things, he's also imagining it wiggling a little, from side to side]

Re: End Game

[bondsofsuffering]

[Why

he is TOO TIRED FOR THIS SHIT.]

...If I'm being haunted by a friendly ghost, turn it on. And if not, I don't know, throw it at my face or something.

[He gives up if they're still in danger of getting murdered even after the game This Might As Well Happen.]

Re: End Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

[The flashlight



clicks on]

Re: End Game

[bondsofsuffering]

[.../Squints.]

...If you're a ghost from the game, throw it.

If not... I don't know. Turn it off again?

Re: End Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

[I mean. Technically he's a ghost because of the game??]

[Does that count as from the game,]



[The flashlight clicks off. And then on again? And then off,]

Re: End Game

[bondsofsuffering]

...That's not an answer... let's see.

If you were a ghost we were tasked with identifying, throw it, and if you're something else, turn it on and leave it like that.

Re: End Game

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Turns it on]

[Leaves it like that]

Re: End Game

[bondsofsuffering]

[Hmmm... Okay. Cautiously scooting a little closer to the flashlight to see it better.]

Not one of the ghosts we were trying to identify, but you couldn't answer a ghost from the game...

[...

...?]

If you're a player from one of the games, turn it off. If not, roll it around.
