Third Haunt

[slapwithpanache]

. . . Hm.

The tournament has concluded.

The new areas, as far as I can tell, are simply nothing more than miles of drab scenery with the occasional man-eating monstrosity. It's barely any different from what we already had.

And every last one of you is impossibly dull to the point of exasperation. No one even jumps anymore, let alone screams

Hmm. I see your point, but smacking anyone you find boring seems a bit much.

[slapwithpanache]

Why, I wouldn't dream of smacking you, Shinku. Don't worry. Only the ones who deserve it.

[the_5th_doll]

I never thought you would.

I also get bored easily, but I make sure to find things to do, like watching television, and relaxing in my tea house.

[slapwithpanache]

Oh, yes, the talking box. If you don't mind my saying so, I'd much rather converse with real people than a box.

[the_5th_doll]

You don't talk to the box. You watch TV shows, like Kunkun.

Kunkun is awesome

[slapwithpanache]

. . . Shows? What are sh -- Oh! Those other people having boring conversations in the box, you mean?

What is Kunkun?

[the_5th_doll]

Well, some of the talk shows are boring. All they talk about is politics and such.

Kunkun is a detective that soles all sort of amazing crimes. I have a doll of him in my room.

[slapwithpanache]

Still, though. It's no fun sitting around watching a box all day.

Sounds just like Pennington. I've actually read a few detective stories before. Really quite fascinating wondering who the next victim will be, although it's odd that the ghosts didn't simply return to point out the murderer.

[the_5th_doll]

Oh no, you wouldn't do it all day. Just a few shows

Well, normally ghosts don't return. You are the first ghost I've ever met.

[slapwithpanache]

Oh? Then what would you do the rest of the day?

Likely because there wouldn't be a story otherwise, ahahaha! But in all seriousness . . . I rather think a ghost would make the ideal detective.

[the_5th_doll]

Well, then you do other things. TV is supposed to relive your bordem for only awhile.

Well, we can both be detectives. I am one myself. I got a coat right from Kunkun himself.

[slapwithpanache]

Ah. Hm. I suppose I may as well give it a try sometime.

A detective outfit? My, that's adorable! I've met Pennington once, but he was far too busy with a crime at the time. I'm afraid I hardly have the skills necessary to be a detective, however.

[the_5th_doll]

Well, then I will teach you. I took Kunkun detective test and passed, so I myself am a Detective.
