[Launch Bay. Cambot is hovering near Maes as the man stares off. He is standing near one of the pods and it looks like he had been about to launch but why will have to wait. Maes closes his mouth and turns to Cambot]

Uh...guys. Please tell me this isn't a further delusion from the ghost vision thing going on. I mean, if it was I'd already be dead, but...here.

[He grabs cambot and turns him towards what WOULD be the open bay doors and the vastness of space...but instead it's a forest. Maes then turns Cambot back to himself]

It wasn't like that before, right? I mean, Pinkie I've seen you go FLOATING out there. We're supposed to be in SPACE, not, well, in some forest.

[The illogical nature of it all might start to be getting to Maes.]

Comments

[colorbymemory]

Yeah, just surprised.

[She looks a bit sheepish.]

[dadandgone]

This week has been full of them.

Although this one certainly takes the cake.

[colorbymemory]

[She nods.]

Even worse than Halloween in some ways.

[dadandgone]

I dunno. At least the ghosts are chasing me around like those stupid scarecrows.

[colorbymemory]

The scarecrows couldn't walk through walls, though, and you could hear them coming.

[dadandgone]

True...and they weren't quite as gruesome.

[pause]

I take it you can see the dead people too then. Don't worry Namine, I don't think they're out to hurt anyone. I know it can be a little scary, but they're probably just as scared and confused.

[colorbymemory]

I try to keep that in mind, but...

[It's still uncomfortable-making. Though she's happy she hasn't seen anybody she knows turn up. Organization ghosts would be a bad thing.]

[dadandgone]

Hey, you want me to come find you when Ammy and I get back? I'll make sure you're safe from the ghosts if it makes you that uncomfortable.

[colorbymemory]

[She looks a little surprised at this offer, then relieved.]

If you don't mind...Maybe for a little while?

[dadandgone]

Not at all. I'll come by as soon as we're back.

[colorbymemory]

Thank you.
