[relentlesslyonwards]

it really makes you re-examine yourself when there's someone out there with worse self-esteem issues than you huh

Week 4, Sunday, afternoon

[resortghosts]

rean/jorogumo!

are you awake?

this might be easier if i'm in your room huh

hang on!!

[relentlesslyonwards]

[He's dozing off because he's more or less confined to bed for the day, but the ping on the tablet does get him to wake, although he's a little groggy as he turns his head to look around the room. Give him a moment to check the tablet.]

...Yoshi?

[resortghosts]

yep, i'm in your room now!

i really wasn't expecting you to get revealed like that

[relentlesslyonwards]

[Is he wearing the bunny hoodie or is there a whole lotta nothing he's staring at?]

I would've preferred not to, but... well, desperate times call for desperate measures.

[resortghosts]

[ There's a whole lotta nothing, because even if you wear cute bunny hoodies they can't pass through doors like the rest of you. ]

so is that a jorogumo thing or a rean thing?

[relentlesslyonwards]

[rip, if only they could make clothes noclip like the rest of them.]

It's just mine. The Jorogumo's, I mean. Rean's not really home right now.

[resortghosts]

ohhh

when makoto was the barghest she kept insisting she was still herself

and cinquey and the doppel seem to be teaming up?

but you're really just the only one in control, huh?

[relentlesslyonwards]

Yeah, that's just how it goes. So in that sense, we've never 'met' or talked with each other, even though I know just about everything about him at this point.

[resortghosts]

because you have access to his memories?

he's not conscious at all?

[relentlesslyonwards]

Yeah, that's exactly it. I know what he knows, and I don't know what he doesn't know.

[His hand drifts to rest on his chest for a moment before he lets it drop.

He shakes his head for the second question.]

Like I said before: he's not home. It's only me in here.

[resortghosts]

wow, that's going to be super awkward

you aren't going to last for much longer, right?

[relentlesslyonwards]

Is it? [He looks slightly confused here but.]

Yeah. Even if I don't account for the missing arm, I can't see this body lasting for more than two to three weeks.

[resortghosts]

i mean basically when he dies he's going to show up over here with no idea what happened, right?

so it's like

hey, sorry you died! also a lot of other people died, some of them because there was a spirit possessing you the whole time!!

like that!

[relentlesslyonwards]

Well, when you put it that way... yeah, that does kind of make it awkward. [Not that he seems too bothered by the thought??]

I don't have the power to make him remember or come back or anything though; that's not how this works.

[resortghosts]

how does it work, anyway?

we don't really have possessions where i come from, so... i'm kind of lost!

[relentlesslyonwards]

[There's a hum in thought.]

It's not like what happened with Doppelganger and Barghest, if that's what you're imagining. But I just go inside their bodies, sync up with them and then control them from there.

[resortghosts]

so you sync up and use their memories to act the part...

all three of you are pretty different, huh?

[relentlesslyonwards]

Well, it's not like we're the same species or anything. Honestly, I was pretty surprised when the Outsider just called us ghosts like we were all the same.

[resortghosts]

i think it's probably safe to assume the outsider has no idea what he's talking about!!

he didn't even read ichigo's file...

what's the ideal ending for you, though?

doppelling wants to go back to the foundation with cinquey

do you want to stay here and keep possessing people and eating?

[relentlesslyonwards]

I thought he would've learned something from watching us, but I guess I was wrong. [And he overestimated him.]

Ideal ending, huh... I mean, this resort is pretty much home for me, so yeah. I'll probably just stay here and continue what I've been doing for years. A bigger host would be nice though. Humans don't really last that long, and it's a little cramped in here.

[resortghosts]

i have no idea if they'll actually allow it, but...

i guess we'll see?

[relentlesslyonwards]

[There's a bit of sheepishness in his expression now.]

I'm not really expecting anything, so don't think you have to go out of your way or anything. I've lived like this for awhile now, so I'll manage somehow.

[resortghosts]

welllllll

it's not like i get much say on what they do with you anyway

either the foundation or the living

so good luck!!

[relentlesslyonwards]

Well, I still appreciate the thought.

Anyway, what about you? Are you going to return to the Foundation after this?

[resortghosts]

probably?

i don't really know where else i'd go!

[relentlesslyonwards]

Hmm. Is there anywhere you'd want to go?

[resortghosts]

not really...

i didn't do anything important in my world, and i doubt i'll be missed, so it doesn't seem like there's a point to trying to return!

[relentlesslyonwards]

As long as you're okay with it, but... wasn't there anything you wanted to do there? Like a goal, or a job you wanted?

[resortghosts]

nope!

i was just a useless shut-in at home

i guess my goal for the future was world peace, but it sounds like i'm working on that here more than i was in my world!

[relentlesslyonwards]

...Weren't you getting lessons on how not to call yourself useless? [Or garbage, same diff.]

That's... good, then. Even if the Foundation doesn't exactly seem like a great place to work.

[resortghosts]

...don't tell ichigo i said that!!

but yeah, that's kind of what i'm hearing...

the people i remember were nice though!

[relentlesslyonwards]

I won't, don't worry. Old habits die hard, so... I get it.

I think you mentioned someone called Red before, right? Is that who you mean?

[resortghosts]

yeah!

she's one of the two i was training with

she was a looooot nicer than the guy

[relentlesslyonwards]

Haha. Well, some guys just don't know how to express themselves, I guess. Unless he did something to you...?

[resortghosts]

nah, he was just really tough!!

but he really liked red. he even told me he wanted to keep the world safe so she wouldn't ever get so sad she couldn't sing anymore
