Lets Do Some Exploring!

[holycrows]

It was nearing the end of a long week at the Medical Center. Henry had realized that it had been a while since he had done any exploring, and that was sad. After writing up a quick note to tape to the door of the morgue ("Back tomorrow if I'm not dead! -Dr. H"), he grabbed Ghostface from his daily routine of tipping mops onto people and headed off. Though he decided to make a quick warp band call while he walked his way there.

[Voice]
"Hi there! It's recently been brought to me that my friend Ghastly, Ghostface, has been floating around the medical center, dropping things on people while I'm at work. I wanted to ask anyone who has had something dropped on them, Were you surprised? Would you say he's doing a good job? On a level from gust of wind to Poltergeist? I really want to make sure he's developing his prank skills right!"

[Action|The Forest Shrine]
Henry loved the forest Shrine, there were always rumors of dead people and ghosts around, and he really wanted to meet a ghost.

A real ghost, not a Pokemon ghost like ghostface.

He walked around a bit, Ghostface floating slightly behind him.

"Helloooooooooo any dead people around? I'd really want to talk to you!"

[Fortunately for the rest of the populace, no dead people respond to Henry's call. The Forest Shrine is a peaceful, if a bit eerie, place.

As Henry walks around, though, he may note a faint rustling noise coming from a little ways out from the shrine, closer to the trees. Clearly the spirits of the dead were communicating with him through semaphore.]

[holycrows]

[Oh-ho-ho, little ghost. It looks like the game is on. Henry walks over towards the rustling, signaling to his Ghastly to sneak around back of it. Henry will be the distraction.]

I sure hope that Isn't a ghost in the bushes! I'm about to walk over there and I would never expect something to try and possess me!

[bravenewmods]

[Aha the foolish human has let his guard down clearly now is the time for possession!!!

...Possession apparently entails Henry being bombarded with pieces of tree bark from up high.]

[holycrows]

Woah! Looks like we got a full on poltergiest here! We need to calm you down a bit!

[Using his powers, Henry will fire a sleep curse in the direction the bark came from. His Ghastly will continue sneaking around behind.]

[bravenewmods]

[The curse will stop the bark from flying momentarily, though it's a little bit unclear whether or not it actually struck its target.

...

Things are quiet for a few moments before a wad of what appears to be spit comes flying Henry's way instead.

Gross.]

[holycrows]

[Henry lets the spit hit him full on, without budging. He seems unfazed.]

Nya-ha-ha! Disgusting! I've been slimed! I've always wondered what it would be like. You sure you don't wanna come out Ghost? I just wanna play with you! It's boring if you just hide and throw ectoplasm at me.

[bravenewmods]

[Henry will find that the spit seems to be... hardening. It almost seems to be like glue. The rustling continues and it seems that whatever has been tossing things Henry's way is ready to show its face...

No wait it's just more tree bark.

...Tree bark with eyes.

A wild Pineco is using Henry to test the efficacy of its glue-spit!]

[holycrows]

Awww, you aren't a ghost. What are you doing here? Don't you know that there are ghosts in the forest-LIKE THAT ONE RIGHT BEHIND YOU LOOKOUT RUN!

[On cue, Ghostface will come charging out from behind the pineco, making stereotypical silly ghost sounds and wearing a silly face, all flailing tongue.]

[bravenewmods]

[Pineco promptly has a heart attack and dies.
Bonding chance over

...
...
...

After it finishes falling to the ground and bouncing a bit, it jumps to its nonexistent feet and begins to hop away as quickly as it can in horror.]

Wait a minute. A Gastly is dropping stuff on people at the medical center and your concern is how good he's doing at pranks?

Re: [voice]

[holycrows]

Of course! I want to give him constructive criticism. Where to hide, who the most supriseable people are. That sort of thing.

[voice]

[second_destiny]

But...what about the people? Shouldn't they be more important?

Re: [voice]

[holycrows]

Than my friend? Not really.

[voice]

[second_destiny]

...But I thought you worked at the medical center?

Re: [voice]

[holycrows]

I do! In the morgue!

[voice]

[second_destiny]

...Er.

[Well, that seems fitting, at least...]

Well, um. Do you at least make sure the doctor finds out?

Re: [voice]

[holycrows]

I'm technically a doctor! He usually tells me about his pranks.

Forest Shrine

[somnambulatory]

W-w-what are you doing here?

[Yep, Jinxie's hanging out at the shrine too, along with her Duskull. But right now she's hiding behind the stone altar, peeking out from around the side.]

Re: Forest Shrine

[holycrows]

[Henry slowly turns and smiles at Jinxie.]

I'm out looking for the recently deceased!

[somnambulatory]

Y-you're a grave robber too?

[holycrows]

Nya-ha-ha! No of course not! Other people gave me all those bodies in the hospital. I rarely need to get my own.

I'm looking for ghosts to talk to. I don't think ghosts have much of use I could steal. Maybe ectoplasm.

[somnambulatory]

Those bodies aren't for you!

[holycrows]

Huh? I think they are. No one has yelled at me for cutting them up so far.

[somnambulatory]

C-cutting them up...?

[Jinxie squeaks, ducking back behind the altar again.]

[holycrows]

[Henry looks at the girl like she's crazy, like she just asked him how to eat food.]

Yeah. To take the organs out. What did you think I did with them?
