[David is walking home, with another sandwich from another cafe to serve as dinner.

...There's a door over there, right? Because there's no way that woman just appeared out of a wall.

Right?]

[thenobledie]

[she almost passes through another before she stops, noticing David. then, she turns to him and smiles. inviting.]

[re_formed]

[David nods politely, wondering why she had been walking directly towards what was definitely a wall]

[thenobledie]

[ghost, duh.]

I'm impressed you are still surprised by so much.

[There is a barricade of wrappers, first and foremost. Stacks of papers. Books. The mechanical spider occasionally appears to clean, but it clearly hasn't returned recently - and that has little to do with the shut window (notice the shattered glass along the windowsill). L is hunched over the olden style laptop, klaking away and occasionally pausing to replay the footage of a corpse.

Beside the laptop is a bag of caramels, heavy enough to crush the two empty bags beneath and- yea, he's busy. This is his work environment. And out of the corner of his eye: movement. L just glances without turning his head, expecting to find a metallic insect gathering the trash and scurrying under tables.]

[and instead, he finds Shirley. just as ghostly as she was in her network post. there is a moment she is quiet. then:]

What a mess.

[l_shrugged]

[L blinks thrice and, absently, a finger taps the touchpad, minimizing a window absently. He's somewhat annoyed and vaguely curious, which has become a common combination recently.]

I wasn't expecting guests.

[A faint tickle across his knuckles and L sucks on one briefly, distracting the sensations rather than the other way around.]

[thenobledie]

You should always be prepared.

[she drifts towards him, examining books and candies distantly. mostly, the candies. her world is limited in such things.]
