Since I think I've had my fill of childish grandstanding for the month I suppose I'll talk about what everyone else seems to be talking about when it's not graduations or kidnappings:

I suppose I'm among the others who have up to today testified that traditional wards seem to have no effect on the apparitions fooling with doors and appearing in

It's not always like this on the Barge?

[mightymorbid]

No. For all its glaring inconveniences it's generally rather clean and well-kept, its troubles often clearly explained.

[sandswitcher]

That's why everyone's so worked up.

[Pauuuse.]

What do you mean, about the lights and electrical currents?

[mightymorbid]

Energy is en[staaaatic] it stands to reason that beings with no physical body might be attrac[staaaaaaaatic]

Of course I had little time to test such theories in my own world. The common man had y[staaaaatic]ield such power.

[mightymorbid]

Eeenk! Wrong answer. Thanks for playing.

[mightymorbid]

I'm glad to know I'll never be so delusional as you are.

You're exceptionally old and experienced, as I understand. So I give you that. But you're not omnipotent.

Take it from someone who's handled the dead their whole life: There were ghosts there. There probably aren't any here, though.

You neglected to answer my last message, and you failed to meet for our appointment.

Do you want to explain yourself before I talk about penalties, or after?

[private] I actually completely missed her post.

[mightymorbid]

I haven't really been paying much attention to the[staaaaatic]ork. The random pops and cra[staaaaatic]re driving me to distraction.

You could have come and asked me in person if I got your message or[staaaaatic]

I have to start visiting you in person, and daily, as part of managing this deepening mess we're in. That was half the point of wanting to talk to you.

There's no controlling what our environment is doing to us right now. 1000101000101010100101001010 control your mental and physical reactions to what is happening. I can help. Name a time. We'll use the CES now that the deck's 1110101101001010

After dinner.

[darknessb4me]

Could still be ghosts. If it is, they don't seem to have much on their minds beyond pranks.

[mightymorbid]

I don't think it is. Souls are kind of hard to miss.

[darknessb4me]

They are.

[Private]

You can see them?

[Private]

[mightymorbid]

What? These things? About as well as everyone else.
