On possibly going to Haven

[schrodingersghost]

[Danny is not amused.]

Oh, sure.  Let the ghost kid go to a horror game!  It'll be fun!  He'll make friends!

[He snorts bitterly.]

Nothing could possibly go wrong with that plan.

Are you insane?  Have you seen how many ghost hunters are running around that place?

A ghost would fit in just fine, if you ask me. Might even do better than most, given the whole walkin'-through-walls bit.

Unless you're not that kinda ghost.

[schrodingersghost]

Nah, I can do the whole walking through walls bit. That's basic stuff.

[He waves his hand dismissively.]

I'm just a little more concerned about the whole shoot first ask questions never crazy ghost hunters issue.

[awfulsentimetal]

With that sword-dragging bit of awful wanderin' around I think they've got bigger fish to fry.

[Just going to be squinting at you a little bit, Danny.]

... Besides, I can't help noticing that you look pretty darn solid and life-like from where I'm standing. Not that I'm advocating anyone bein' sent to Haven, mind.

[schrodingersghost]

Sword dragging? That sounds nice and creepy.

[He shrugs uncomfortably.]

I'm half. Which is kind of a big secret. You know If I want to avoid being ripped apart molecule by molecule. Or dissected.

Not really planning on letting anyone there know about it.

[awfulsentimetal]

You're... half a ghost.

[There's some incredulity there, but not much. The Spine has seen many strange things, up to and including a man with a lobster claw for a hand and a face Picasso would be proud of.]

I'm pretty sure most everyone's hiding somethin'. You'd fit right in.

[schrodingersghost]

Oh, great. I'll blend. Just what I always wanted.

[awfulsentimetal]

It'd help with the ghost hunters, wouldn't it?

[schrodingersghost]

Guess it depends on who I'd be blending with. I mean, back home, most people think I'm all ghost or all human. I've got different names and everything.

[awfulsentimetal]

What, like a superhero or somethin'?

[schrodingersghost]

Yeah, or something. Secret identity and all.
