Posted: November 20

[ Yata's video feed snaps on late one evening, connecting him to the BBS, whether he'd intended that to happen or not - although from the surprise on his face and his sudden blinking at the glare of the screen that pops up from his watch, it's probably more likely not. But whatever he'd been trying to do, now that the connection is made, there's a look of both stark relief and very much freaking out obviously occurring here.

When he starts talking, his voice is barely above a whisper and it's obvious he's hiding somewhere in the dark. Maybe a closet? ]

Shit, guys, there's something weird as shit going on down here. I thought I'd help out with a prayer that sounded easy enough, some old dude who kept losing stuff or some shit... [ Yata, how much had you even paid attention to what was on that prayer? Obviously not enough. ]

Except when I got here, the house is empty and all this weird shit is happening and there are like... [ He stops abruptly, his eyes darting to something in the distance, and even in the video feed, the loud sound of footsteps can be heard echoing through the house. ] That keeps happening and I swear to god - gods? - there's no one else in this house and I don't know what the hell is going on. Did anyone else hear anything weird happening down-

[ And then there's a sudden distant crash and his eyes dart away again before he gets a curse half-uttered and the screen goes black. ]

[ Oh my god this... she can't let this go. This guy. What a riot. This is prime trolling material right here.

There's a concerned look on her face as she peers into the feed, looking oh so very worried. ]

Oh gosh... are you still there? You must be so scared...

[thevanguard]

[ You are the worst.

Although his face does come back after a moment - unsurprisingly in a new hiding spot. Looks like whatever it was found him.

Although now he's rolling his eyes. Hard. While still hiding, of course. ]

Sh-shut up! I'm not scared! Just how the hell am I supposed to fight a haunted house?!

[horthath]

[ Excuse you I think you mean the best. ]

It's okay... I'd be scared, too...

[ She gives a little gasp, her attention peering riiiiiight over Yata's shoulder. ]

Hey... what's that over there...? It... it looks like it's got eyes.

[ Her voice is soft as if raising it any louder would call attention to whatever "it" was. Of course, were Yata to look, he would find absolutely nothing there... ]

....

[Lavi looks amused.]

Need some help there, Yata?

[thevanguard]

[ Yata is so not amused. ]

Lavi! How do I murder a possessed house?!

[lostinshadows]

Burn it.

[Isn't that a simple solution?]

[thevanguard]

I can't burn down the house! It belongs to the person I was supposed to be here to help!

[lostinshadows]

Didn't we go through this whole haunted thing before? Thought you'd have some sort of protection charm by now.

[Pause.]

It is just ghosts, right? No ayakashi or anything like that?

[monkeyblue]

Misaki.

[Uh-oh. It's The Tone.

Misaki best start saying his prayers.]

[thevanguard]

[ Shit.

Yata's too busy scrambling for a new hiding spot to give that Tone appropriate respect. ]

Little busy at the moment, Saru.

[monkeyblue]

Why didn't you tell anyone where you were going? Did you forget that we just had mass kidnappings?

[thevanguard]

I left a note!

[ On Izumo's kitchen counter.

.....So Saru wouldn't yell. ]

[monkeyblue]

You mean the note that was ruined by your cat knocking water over?

[unlucky7]

To clarify, is the house empty because the guy you're supposed to help isn't home or this is an abandoned house you ended up at?

Voice, because he doesn't have time to stop and type right now....

[thevanguard]

No, someone definitely lives here. Lived here? Who knows, maybe the ghosts ate the old dude. And all his missing shit.

[unlucky7]

I'm going to advise against burning the place down.

Why don't you leave?

[thevanguard]

Because the shit is still missing! I can't just abandon the damn prayer I came here to do in the first place, I just wasn't expecting a damn ghost to try and murder me in the process!

[ Also he's stubborn, besides being scared shitless. ]

[voice]

[irishfriskey]

Do you need help? I can be there right away if you do.

[He doesn't want to leave anyone suffering.]

[thevanguard]

Unless you know how to murder a ghost - again? - I don't know how much help I need.

[ So far, he doesn't seem to be having much luck. ]

[irishfriskey]

I could at least help watch things.

[Making sure you don't get hurt.]

[thevanguard]

Watch what? It's a ghost. I can't actually see the damn thing. [ Another crash somewhere off to the left has him wincing. ] Just what it keeps throwing around the house. No wonder this old dude can't find anything.

[sweetdeath]

[Tsuzuki's tone is a panicky hush.]

Are you okay?! What happened?

[thevanguard]

[ Yata's got the same tone because craaaaaap. ]

There is a freaking ghost hunting me in this house, that's what!

[sweetdeath]

Okay, so we've got to get you out of there! Where are you?

[GHOST HUNTERS UNITE]

[thevanguard]

I can't get out of here, I still haven't finished the prayer that brought me here in the first place!

[ And ghost or not, that's more important. Probably. ]
