[Poly Entry 14] A ghost among us

[Accidental video:]

[The feed begins in a fairly clustered room, full of books and pieces of equipment scattered about. If one were to observe carefully enough, they would recognize it as Rita's room.

A moment later, there's a sudden turning of the pages of a book and slight shifts of some of the junk on the ground. A prominent indentation made shortly after on the bed, more documents were shuffled and flipped as if someone were looking through it. A small sigh is heard when a light outline of the figure sitting on the bed is slowly revealed as the feed continues to roll. The viewer could now see a mysterious blacked-out figure though one could guess who it may be from the rather distinct sound of his accessories jangling as he turns each page and from the shape of the unique hat on his head.]

[ooc; Sooo Rita was too stubborn to show Klarth the documents she got from the deity's trade until he figures out his own shit so he opted to sneak into her room and take advantage of his ghostliness, except... he's starting to show signs of returning to normal;;;; SO... Rita-freak-out plan is a go! /o/ Post open to all (and feel free to thread hop into what's going on atm or the response will be after Rita finds out it's him) and AP for Rita~ Hope this works for you, Zen~ Let me know if I should change anything~ thanks!]

[A few minutes ago, Rita had been doing some research in the study, but--these damn ghost stories, why did they have to detail every little creepy thing? Eventually, every little floorboard creak started making her jump and she was staring at every shadow. So much for research.

Figuring she'd feel a little more comfortable in her own room (she's not scared! It's just more cozy in there, really!), she heads there with a small pile of books about ghosts and the supernatural. However, she pauses briefly in front of the door. This is silly, there's nothing hiding behind it--Annoyed at her own jumpiness, she angrily turns the knob and kicks the door open forcefully.

Her bed isn't immediately across from the door, so she doesn't spot any ghosts yet.]

[ooc: No problem, this is perfect~ Fun times are go!]

[ ...Tyr recognises that room. And it takes a little longer to recognise that jingling, having only heard it a long time ago, but... ]

...Rita?

[Although she starts to head over to a pile of books, she freezes when she thinks she hears something jingling. Is there something here after all? No, no, it's just wind chimes or something--wait, there's nothing like that at the house.]

J-just your imagination, Rita...

[She whispers it, trying to convince herself more than anything that there's nothing creepy here. In spite of that, she remains completely still, clutching her books so tightly her knuckles go white. She waits to hear the noise again--just to prove that it's not real, because it won't come again, right?]

[ooc: not at all~ XD a little tl;dr is fun!]

[ If he thought it was his imagination, the sudden stop would tell him otherwise. In a bored tone: ]

Do you know your device turned on?
blastiafreak: (nervous)

[After what feels like several minutes of waiting, Rita finally concludes that it must have been her imagination. Just as she knew all along, of course. She shakily lets out the breath she was holding and starts to move--only to let out a squeak when the floorboards creak under her feet.]

Aa--th-this is so...

[STUPID. She's not scared, she's not. Glaring at the books she's holding with irritation, she loudly stomps to a corner of the room and sits on a pile of tomes, her makeshift chair. Were she to look up, Klarth would be straight across from her now. However, her attention is focused on her ghost stories. She swallows the lump in her throat and practically rips the book open to start going through the pages. She'll get through this damn thing if it's the last thing she does!]
blastiafreak: (shock)

[There's the noise again! She jumps when she hears it, knocking over a couple books. It's definitely not her imagination, but--wait, was that Tyr's voice. Momentarily confused, she picks up her device. Maybe it was just coming from this thing...No, it was off. Besides, she could have sworn the noises were coming from somewhere else in the room. Nevertheless, she turns it on, and frowns when she sees a video feed of her room. Did her device post this earlier? She doesn't watch the whole thing, but finds Tyr's messages.

When she's done responding, she puts it down and starts inspecting her room. She's just...going to make absolutely sure there's nothing here. Just to be on the safe side. There are a lot of shadows in those corners, and behind the books, and something moving on her bed--

Wait. For a second, she thinks she's seeing things and rubs her eyes. Even after she blinks, though, it doesn't quite disappear. But it's not distinct, either, just a vague and transparent shape, like a...ghost?

Rita stiffens up and, for the moment, does nothing but stare in horror.]

[ooc: Okay!...And you thought yours up there was long? XD;]

[Have a confused and nervous mage, Tyr!]

A-are you talking to me? Mine was definitely off.

[ Nervous mage seems like a bad sign. ]

I don't know...

...Move around a little. [ Do you jingle too, Rita? ]
blastiafreak: ([manga] skeptical)

[video]

[personal profile] blastiafreak 2010-08-20 04:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[No more a bad sign than usual...mostly.]

Hmph...fine. This good enough?

[And she just sort of halfheartedly waves her arm.]
stargathering: (sorta cute)

[ Eh, that's good enough for him. He listens closely, but doesn't hear anything. ]

I guess. ...Are you sure your device didn't turn on by itself...?
blastiafreak: ([skit] avoiding the subject)

[video]

[personal profile] blastiafreak 2010-08-20 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
N-not unless it did earlier. I'm certain it wasn't on when I picked it up.
stargathering: (oh hey)

[video]

[personal profile] stargathering 2010-08-20 05:09 pm (UTC)(link)
... It might have...

What exactly are you keeping in there, though? You don't have... pets or anything, right?
blastiafreak: (some concerns about this)

[video]

[personal profile] blastiafreak 2010-08-20 05:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh? Wh-what are you talking about?

[Is there something here after all?]
stargathering: (the sky is purple)

[video]

[personal profile] stargathering 2010-08-20 05:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I saw something moving around and moving your things, so...
blastiafreak: ([skit] embarrassed // scared)

[video]

[personal profile] blastiafreak 2010-08-20 05:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Aah--w-wait, no, there's--it's n-nothing, okay? There's nothing in here!

[He's just messing with her, right? RIGHT?]
stargathering: (Thailand)

[personal profile] stargathering 2010-08-20 05:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Freaking out Rita is a bad sign though, right?? ]

Then what was going on there?
blastiafreak: ([skit] no peeking in my drawers!)

[video]

[personal profile] blastiafreak 2010-08-20 05:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[But if he heard all those noises too, then it can't be just her imagination...]

I-it was...Look, I don't know!

...

You should get the others to help you flush out whatever's in your room... It might be another part of the deities' trade.
blastiafreak: (on guard)

[video]

[personal profile] blastiafreak 2010-08-20 05:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I-I hadn't really thought of that...

[Stupid. If that's all it is, she's going to hit somebody. She starts looking around--and that's when she finally sees Klarth's vague outline. Cue shocked staring!]
stargathering: (to a new world)

[ He was just going to tell her THEN HURRY UP AND LET THEM HELP YOU OUT but sees her staring like that, and-- ]

--What is it?
blastiafreak: ([skit] what you say?!)

[video]

[personal profile] blastiafreak 2010-08-20 05:41 pm (UTC)(link)
U-uh...mm...

[She's too terrified startled to manage anything more than that.]
