UN: deltadeath (August 6th)

[trademark_skull]

Alright, which one of you was messing with the dead this time?

[Had there been a previous time? Honestly, he doesn't even know. But with the amount of things he has seen, blight being on campus already, this can't really be the first time.]

This time?? (◎ ◎)ゞ Is this normal??

[trademark_skull]

It might be. I know for a fact it's not normal in most other places.

[marmoron]

you really think if you just ask like that someone's gonna fess up

[trademark_skull]

Not really.

[Least he's honest. If only it was that easy.]

But someone else might know who did it instead.

[marmoron]

dunno about that
would you really tell people about it if you were planning to summon a whole bunch of ghosts
or do it somewhere people could catch you doing it?

[trademark_skull]

I'm pretty sure I found where they summoning them at, so it wasn't that hidden.

[marmoron]

you find any clues as to who it might've been then?

[trademark_skull]

[....Kind of wondering if he should say what he found.]

[Whatever. He can defend himself.]

Something that looked like some offerings. And a crystal.

[marmoron]

[Keith reads that text and immediately bolts up out of his infirmary bed. It's a damn good thing this whole convo's happening on text otherwise this would have been the world's most obvious tell. By the time he made it out to Kisara's set up, the crystal had been long gone and holy shit.]

what kind of crystal?

[trademark_skull]

[If only he knew.]

It's a crystal kind of crystal? [It was slightly a defense, but also wasn't sure how any other way to describe it. He only knew somewhat what it does.]

[infestedcouncilpresident]

Let me know if you figure out who it was I need to kick their ass

[trademark_skull]

Yeah, I can arrange that. I won't mind taking a few hits at them too.

[Maybe after figuring out how they found this thing...]

...Maybe once I know how to stop it.

[infestedcouncilpresident]

Do you know a lot about banishing ghosts?

[Slightly hopeful]

[trademark_skull]

[Don't get too hopeful.]

I know some of it. ['Banishing' is kind of a word for it, he guesses.] If I had the right things, I could get rid of a few of them right now.

But it'll take awhile to get through all of them. I rather think of something faster.

[infestedcouncilpresident]

Well

Im super haunted right now

Its not as exciting as it looks in movies its just exhausting

[trademark_skull]

[How haunted is 'super haunted'?]

Well in that case, if I just had a scythe I deal with that right away.

[Unfortunately, he doesn't.]

[...But he does think about that for awhile. There might be a plan B.]

...But I may have something else I could test.

[...]

No one is gonna have a fit if I rekill some ghosts right?

[Because this is probably the only 'nice' thing he's ever considered doing for the school, for once.]

[infestedcouncilpresident]

Dont KILL them!!!

Just make them go away?

Look its not their fault and its not my fault its just bad luck and I dont know what to do to make them leave me alone or if I even should but I cant get anything done right now because theres all these blank eyes staring at me everywhere I go and I hate it but its NOT THEIR FAULT

[trademark_skull]

Where else do you think they should be taken to? The dead aren't supposed to stay with the living, it's literally in their namesake.

Most of them were probably already from there before all this mess.

[infestedcouncilpresident]

You mean what was their eternal reward? God I dont fucking know. I guess I hoped they had reincarnated or something but APPARENTLY THEY HAVE NOT

[trademark_skull]

Souls do reincarnate. Eventually.

Those ones haven't yet. And they never will until they go back.

[infestedcouncilpresident]

Right so lets just do that then

[trademark_skull]

[Then it is still just a matter of what to do. He still did not have many options, besides just one.]

[...He's going to regret this later, isn't he?]

Where are you right now? I got something I could maybe try out.

[infestedcouncilpresident]

Cafeteria but i keep moving because if i stay in one place the ghosts come back

UN: AZURESTRIKER

[shockingblue]

Not me, but I'm gettin' real sick and tired of the rattling chains at night.

[trademark_skull]

Wait - for real?

Why would they be rattling chains? [Do ghosts just carry those around normally?]

[shockingblue]

I don't know, I've just been hearing moaning and rattling chains at night since these ghosts started showing up. If Maple were still here I'd think it was her messing with me, but she's not.

Didn't they like to do that kinda thing in classical literature?

[trademark_skull]

I thought that was just something people made up.

You sure it ain't just a prank by someone else?

[The ghost situation does seem to be widespread. There is likely a few jerks taking advantage of it.]

[shockingblue]

There's not that many people on my floor that would do that. Aube's pretty quiet.

But I guess I can't rule out a prank either. Though it seems like a pain in the butt to drag a bunch of chains around to rattle in the middle of the night.

[trademark_skull]

[You know...he actually makes some pretty good points.]

[Maybe it was ghost that was tossed at the bottom of a lake then... Or a stingy businessman.]

Chains would be hard to carry around. I guess it would have to be something else.

[Can't believe he was actually offering this, and there would've been a frustrated sigh in middle of these texts. But these ghosts did have to go.]

I suppose I gotta find it. Just to be sure.

[shockingblue]

I would appreciate that. And if I can help you in any way, let me know. I'm not an exorcist, but I am a Candle, so if you think that'd be helpful somehow...
