voice + action ✪ a ghost just needs a home

[slaying]

Good morning. Happy Sunday. Et cetera, et cetera.

My dear barman-in-arms, Zack, has already intro'd you fine folks to the equally fine watering-hole we like to call Good Spirits. So here's me -- Buffy Summers -- with a bit of a follow-up question

[crisis_rain]

I have no idea what Thanksgiving is, but am I invited? [:D]

[slaying]

American. As in from America. As in what I am.

[ her cute teacher voice is out. be afeared. ]

[crisis_rain]

[Where the heck is America... oh, yeah, other worlds. America is now a world.]

I'm from uh... Terca Lumireis?

[slaying]

...Does that make you a Terca Lumireisian?

[crisis_rain]

No it makes me Raven. [Ha.] I wouldn't be the same from anywhere else!

[slaying]

What's it like?

[crisis_rain]

Bein' Raven? Kind of crap. My chest hurts, I'm old, everyone blames me fer everythin' and I get walked all over! Being Raven sucks. But alas, this is the life I chose.

If ya meant Terca Lumireis it's... well, I guess Luceti isn't that different? People back home lived inside barriers to protect 'em from the monsters outside.

[slaying]

...Monsters like what?

[ nosy! but she keeps some things in the back of her mind. my chest hurts being one of them. ]

[crisis_rain]

[Maybe one day she'll find out about that detail.]

Like monsters? Take an animal, then imagine it ta be hostile, a lot bigger and a bit mutated? That's a monster. Honestly, I haven't seen any here.

[slaying]

So -- like a demon?

[crisis_rain]

Kind of, yes! Only not humanoid types... unless they're gentlemen.

[slaying]

Gentle...men?

[ she's taking you seriously; she actually knows a group of demons by that name. ]

[crisis_rain]

Yeah! Imagine a guy that was about 9ft tall, super skinny and moved around slowly. They look like they haven't eaten for years, but the weirdest thing is the fact they actually have manners. They'll apologize fer tryin' ta kill you!

Actually, I think Flynn got turned into one here a few months back.

[slaying]

...Sounds a lot like the Gentlemen I've tango'd with, minus the speaking part. Mine didn't speak.

[crisis_rain]

[They're like this D:]

Yours were probably a lot scarier if you refer ta them as demons and not monsters.

[slaying]

Mine roll into town, steal everyone's voice, and cut out seven hearts.

[ hers are effing horrifying. ]
