20 Bad day (mon) (9/7)
“Wow, looks like someone's had a bad day,” Danny said, eyebrows coming together in concern over how annoyed and tired Tucker appeared over the video connection.
“Now I know how you felt in high school,” Tucker growled and took off her beret, running a hand along braided cornrows.
Danny blinked. “You found a ghost portal and got zapped and now are dealing with ghost powers?”
Tucker laughed. “Ok, maybe not that bad.”
Danny relaxed only marginally, but was still heavily concerned. “Then what? Do you need me to get over there? It's a little far, but I can try to get as close as possible.”
“No, no,” Tucker said quickly, obviously wanting Danny to not take the suggestion to heart and actually try to do it. “It's just that a ghost followed me from Amity.”
“What?” Danny asked rather incredulously. She had expected ghosts to pursue her-not Tuck.
“I know! That's what I thought too!” Tucker half-exclaimed, gesturing with her hat. “I tried to ignore it, hoping it'd go away, but it hasn't.”
“Do you know who it is?”
“A good guess? Technus.”
Danny was struggling not to smile. “Well, you are at a technology-heavy school...”
“Yeah, but why follow me?! I mean, where you are has lots of shiny technology to play with as well!”
“Has she been destructive?” Danny asked seriously.
Tucker shook her head, the beads at the ends of her braids clacking slightly against each other. “No, she's just...”
“Annoying,” Danny finished for her.
“Girl, you have a way with words,” Tucker commented dryly.
Danny snickered. “What's she been doing, then?”
“Honestly? I think she's just poking around.”
“And you notice, but no-one else does?”
“They just think that the stuff is buggy, or that there's been a hacker who cracked the system.”
Danny was far too amused. “In a way...”
“No-one would believe me if I said, 'Oh, by the way, the reason the stuff's been acting up is because the ghost of technology has possessed them.'”
Danny chuckled before asking, “Has she been bothered you, though?”
Tucker paused and a thoughtful look crossed her face. “In...periphery ways? She tends to show up in my classes for a few minutes before moving on. Like she's checking in on me or something.”
“Checking in on you,” Danny said slowly.
“It's weird,” Tucker said and rubbed the brim of her hat pensively.
“You sure you don't want me to come over there?”
“Maybe you can visit during the weekend if she doesn't back off?”
“Will do,” Danny said seriously.
“Cool,” Tucker said, obviously relieved in spite of herself.
Danny yawned and blinked, Tucker's laugh coming through the other side.
“Keep on forgetting about the time difference. Go to sleep.”
“Mm-kay,” Danny murmured. “Talk to you later, yes/yes?”
“Yes,” Tucker said with a grin. “Sleep.”
“'Night,” Danny said, and signed off a Skype.
Danny looked up at the cloudy sky from her perch on the roof of her dorm, glad that wireless extended so far. She thought for a few minutes before she eventually sighed and went intangible and invisible, her laptop carried tightly against her body as she sunk down to her room.
