The Mist has been a busy ... entity-ish thing lately. All the new blood coming through the Door is sure to stir things up a bit

drawing him out might be dangerous .

[blah blah. this is typed, if only because she's so used to it now.]

[video]

[trickster_treat]

It might be... but if anyone can handle it, it's me.

Besides, technically I'm already dead so I've got nothing to lose.

what if you die again ?

[She more means what if someone wounds your soul or takes it. But that isn't really clear. She hasn't spent nearly enough time in the church to convey those thoughts.]

[trickster_treat]

Then I'll just come back again. Most likely. Death isn't the end of everything. There's ghosts after all.

but ghosts are scary . and you are not scary .

[video]

[trickster_treat]

Not all ghosts are scary. I'd be a very... nice ghost.

[divinelyhushed]

but you will get to be an old ghost . and a grumpy ghost . and then you might not be very nice at all .

[video]

[trickster_treat]

I won't become a ghost anyway. Only people get to do that. I'd still be what I am, I just wouldn't have a body anymore... or something like that.

I'm more worried about you getting hurt, kiddo, than anything happening to me.

but your body would be better than a ghost body .

[A whole body is better than a ghost body. Better than a partial, wounded body.]

[She's thinking of Heine, for sure... At least for a moment before being distracted.]

... me ? i am fine .

[video]

[trickster_treat]

I could just get a new real body. Don't worry, I'm not going to be a ghost, Nill.

I'm glad you're good.

... do you promise ?

[video]

[trickster_treat]

I promise. I'm not going anywhere.

You don't sound okay, kiddo. I'm popping in.

[divinelyhushed]

i am alright .

it will be nice to see you either way .

[pops in and sees Nill, pauses for a moment before pulling her into a slightly awkward hug]

Hey there, kiddo.

[action]

[divinelyhushed]

[Yeah, that was slightly awkward, but it's a hug and she even manages to get a pat on the back before pulling away.]

[She almost reaches for the forge to type out a message - as how she communicates with Mister Break in her place of work now, but she remembers that he can hear her mind if she thinks hard enough. Oh - yeah. Duh.]

["Hi, Mister Trickster."]

[smiles and shakes his head]

You don't have to call me Mister, Nill. I'm so not a teacher.

[sits and hands her a candy bar, opens one to eat himself]

You eat chocolate, right?
