GHOST HUNT (the Prequel)

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!!

[ squint. ] What the hell happened to you? You were fine last I saw you.

[He opens his arms for him.]

Caeli!

[Hardly answering the question. And he will make it sometime to the healers to get all the stakes removed before he leaves.]

…my name is not an answer to either question, Emet. [ he does move closer. ] You we’re so incredibly competent in our run of the room.

[He attempts to lean on him and it is very apparent that he's quite drunk.]

Ghosts are demons. Vergil found them all.

… [ his expression sours, but he’ll offer himself to be leaned on. ] Do you need help getting back to Baritones, or should I bring you to Taisho instead. I can’t imagine sensei will be happy to see you like this.

[He is thrilled.]

Baritones. Healer first.

[He assumes, Five, Vergil or Lily is getting him a healer or he'll just roll over and get one. He is not bothered by this fact. It'll happen.]

He's upset.

[A really awkward pause.]

Why do you call him sensei?

Healer first… [ if no one comes over with a healer he’ll flag one down, so emet can stop being a pin cushion. ] Understandable. I still don’t have an answer to “what happened”.

…

Because I respect and appreciate him.

The demon got quite upset at the end for some reason. Chandelier fell. I happened to be the tallest in the room.

Though the room got dark beforehand.

[A passing thought.

And then he taps his nose or rather the side of his face because he misses.]

That's adorable.

... [ swats at his hand. ] Ah, yes, adorable.

It seems like a lot of the ghosts turned hostile at the end. I guess having us play murder mystery wasn't exciting enough.

Did you finally get to fight one? Not that it would be advisable.

No. I was only in the one run with you, sensei, and Xiansheng. The most fun I had was trying to provoke the ghost.

But you already have a ghost.

…what.

[He points at Ardbert.]

Azem.

[He's not supposed to be making any sense, sorry, Childe.]

…ah, right. I’m not interesting in picking fights with him.

He enjoys adventuring, not fighting.

[Nuzzling up to to Caeli.]

Carry me.

...you're so drunk. [ he'll lift him up and though it looks ridiculous childe has no problems carrying him thanks to wild city's abilities. ]

And?

[He very much enjoys being carried.]

Did you make yourself drunk or did you find a secret stash in the kids room?

Lily. She thought it would help with the pain.

[Leans his head on his shoulder and closes his eyes.]

...mm. [ he'll just head out of the game tower with emet in tow. ] As long as it did, in fact, help. I'm assuming Five sensei is going to be heading to Baritones, or would you like me to call him for you?

Yes. That is what he wanted. To head to Baritones.

[A pause.]

He can’t stand the smell of burning flesh. He’s taking it harder than he lets on.

...

I can stop by if you don't think it'd interrupt whatever the two of you have planned.

Come by later. Let me calm him first.

But he’d enjoy your company. As would I.

[ nods. ] Just... send me a text when you'd like me over. [ gets a few minutes into the walk to the hotel and then just changes into some giant flying dinosaur, so he can get them both there much quicker. he's still carrying emet, TECHNICALLY, but it's probably not the same. ]
