I remember why I don't like this time of year.

[Residential ghost-talker is staring at the brown and dried cornstalks hay. He's been in here for almost an hour now, trying to find the other side.]

Oi! Anyone!

[A small little black cloud wandered toward him, too low to be a person. In fact he hears a meow. Insert scowl.]Go away cat. Unless you

[rlyangrylepers]

Aw man, what the hell?!

*That would be the sound a very loud, irritated Texan, also lost in the cornstalks.*

What is this, Oklahoma?! This isn't funny!

[rlyangrylepers]

Hm. *chinscratch*

... ask it?

[grapesarebetter]

[Stare says 'it's a cat']

...

[Turning around to look at the cat.]

The way out. Know it?

[It meows again, probably loud enough for Nick to hear but he could think it's just Echizen.]

[rlyangrylepers]

*Stare back says 'it doesn't hurt to try'*

... I take it that was the cat?

[grapesarebetter]

[In his experience the animal ghosts aren't too...understanding of the human language.]

Yeah.

It went off that way. [He points straight through the hay/corn. The cat didn't choose a path.]

[rlyangrylepers]

Well, better'n standing around here. *start to follow in that general direction.*

[grapesarebetter]

[He sighs and follows the guy, giving him changes in directions if the cat moves in another.]

[rlyangrylepers]

*It takes a bit of a navigating and a couple of bad directions, but eventually they make it to the end of the damn thing and the door to the next car.*

... well. Coulda gone better, but at least we're not stuck there anymore.

[grapesarebetter]

[Meh. Cats aren't the greatest at giving directions.]

Shame there wasn't a tool or something to just whack it down.

[rlyangrylepers]

Well, yeah. Machete. Sleeping car. We went over this.

I don't think it was meant to be easy, anyway.

[grapesarebetter]

Any kind of tool would have helped.

[At least that's brat's philosophy anyways.]

I'm staying away from this car.

[rlyangrylepers]

Good point.

Eh, it'll change eventually...

[grapesarebetter]

Not soon enough.

[He starts to open the door to this place, hopefully the train won't decide to keep them in since they cheated a little.]

[rlyangrylepers]

*Nick stares in to the next car, glad to see that it appears normal enough.*

Patience is a virtue, kid.

[grapesarebetter]

Right. Aniki never got that point across.

[Brat likes to do things and get them done. He walks into the next car, more than happy to leave the field behind.]

[rlyangrylepers]

Hm? ... well, it's a valuable lesson to learn, some day.

*The car appears to be a lounge car, and there's a little fridge in between two large couches. Curious, Nick goes over and opens it.*

Want a drink?
