[ waits until endgame where he gets carted off to another world by someone. ]

If you’re in the same place as everyone else, I’m sure you can all cause some trouble.

[selfimmolation]

[ he would rather die than run from his family good luck to everyone trying to keep him alive ]

Maybe. They've been pretty calm, as far as ghosts go.

[ballies]

[ zia versus half the game as that aggressive walking towards each other jojo meme ]

I… don’t have a lot of experience with ghosts? Are they usually more obnoxious?

[selfimmolation]

According to how people discuss them, sure. Never met one myself either. [ unless... he counts. he's making a face like he's not. sure if he counts. ]

[ballies]

[ well the hug was pretty solid? so? he's probably fine.


ish? ]

Huh. [ genuinely she'd just assumed his world was like yeah and here's my ghost buddy who is just here for some reason. ] Maybe they're biding their time until this moon jerk shows up and then they'll start throwing things.

[selfimmolation]

[ no we have zombies not ghosts

mostly

ace has not met a ghost ]

Better keep a lot of easy to throw objects around for that, then.

[ballies]

Party popper to the face maybe?

[ thinks of that gif of luffy shoving the zombie back into the grave like, mood. ]

[selfimmolation]

Is that the best you can come up with?

[ballies]

I haven't been buying weapons, so I'm getting creative.

[selfimmolation]

At least make it a chair.

[ballies]

...

Not a table?

[selfimmolation]

The chair's easier to throw around.

[ballies]

I'll keep it in mind. Especially if I need a weapon, and fast.

[selfimmolation]

Anything can be a weapon if you try hard enough, but it's better if you can lift it.

[ballies]

Adrenaline'll help with that. Probably.

[selfimmolation]

A little, at least.

[ballies]

[ she laughs. it's subdued compared to her normal laughter, but it's there at least. ]

So, chair and use the adrenaline to my advantage.

[selfimmolation]

Take it from someone who used to fight people way bigger than he was-- try hitting them right in the solar plexus. It works pretty well even if the face is more satisfying.

[ballies]

Noted. I'll make sure to aim right for it.

[selfimmolation]

[ grins a little and then kind of falters because he's dying tomorrow and they are just talking and trying to put off the inevitable for like three weeks now wow ]

[ballies]

[ me: we're keeping these threads going. my zia cr.
me now: wow it's been so long. so much has happened. where are we? (still in jail)

distractions only work for so long. at least he won't be alone tonight? nico is probably somewhere nearby waiting to set up a permanent camp if he hasn't already. ]

...

It's going to be weird. Not having you around. [ might as well rip the band aid off again after all that. ]

[selfimmolation]

You've still got Albedo. [ FOR ONE WEEK, and it's clear he's saying it to dismiss it because the only thing he can say to that is: ] ... Sorry.

[ballies]

[ FOR ONE WEEK. stares at the ceiling.


she boops the centre of his forehead. ] No apologising.

[selfimmolation]

[ frowns as he rubs at his head and just makes a :C face ]

... There's not much else I can say for this mess.

[ballies]

[ there was zero force it's fine. ]

It's definitely a mess-- but we know who I'm mad at about it. [ not! him! ] Especially seeing as this whole blackmail crap can't be isolated.
