VOICE; strikes are muttered.

[Kanan's voice clicks on, a little bit pensive; anyone who knows her well knows that this is her 'I'm unsettled and a little frightened' voice. Even so, she seems to be trying hard to hide it.]

....All this... all this talk of ghosts reminds me of Setsuna.

Him and his damned Lady in Red.

I hate ghosts. I hate ghost stories.

Grimm would hit me

Wuss.

[gleamingshard]

Go die.

[covert_chord]

Why, Kanan, I love you too.

[gleamingshard]

Don't you lie to me.

[covert_chord]

Aw. Is it that time of the month?

[gleamingshard]

....Yes, Hallelujah. I'm bleeding copiously from the hole between my legs. It's definitely not the ghost infestation or anything.

[covert_chord]

Of course it isn't. Why would I ever possibly think it was that?

[gleamingshard]

Because that'd be sensible, and we all know how Halle deals with sensible things.

By completely ignoring them, of course.

[covert_chord]

Ohhhhh. I see how it is, now.

Tell me then, my dearest Kanan. What're you all pissed off at me about this time?

[gleamingshard]

It's not you, it's all this damned ghost talk.

[covert_chord]

Is someone scaaaared?

[gleamingshard]

Yes, we have been over this. You've probably never had to go through a Train Graveyard for training purposes!

[covert_chord]

No, because my world isn't fucking ridiculous like yours is.

[gleamingshard]

You're telling me. But this also means that whatever ghosts your world has can't hurt you like mine can.

[covert_chord]

Ghosts don't exist in my world.

And really. What the hell are they going to do, be transparent at you?

[gleamingshard]

They can suck your energy right out of you. We lost a few candidates that way. Or they can hit you with anything nearby; my superior got hit with a panel of metal from a dead train. Or they can possess your friends and make THEM attack YOU.
