wow you really dont even believe your own shit this time do you
ill do what i can if it happens and valdis says she can handle ghosts too but like
this is bad dude
just admit its bad

[light_mischief]

Literally the first thing I replied was "this is bad."

[saltwaterlungs]

and then immediately afterwards you said 'this is fine'.
dont bullshit me
i know you
and 'work out how it does the thing and then stop the thing' isnt a plan and doesnt reassure me

[light_mischief]

You are correct, it isn't a plan. It's a series of thoughts that will eventually coalesce into a plan. And we have until people start reporting mangled corpses on deck to figure out how to do that.

Ghosts aren't my forte, but I do have literally two centuries' worth of experience with cataclysmic magical catastrophes. I'll see what I can find out from the Captain and Friday, and we'll figure out a plan that may, with any luck, actually help us forward our goal of getting everyone out of here.

[saltwaterlungs]

okay
fine

[ There's that word he hates. But there's not much point in pushing it any further, is there? He's decided it's not her problem, so it isn't. ]

let me know how it goes

[light_mischief]

I'm confused. You don't want to help? I thought ghosts were your particular forte? And this is possibly directly tied to the need for a new afterlife, isn't it?

[saltwaterlungs]

i thought me helping was like
so obvious i didnt need to say it

[light_mischief]

Good. I have literally no idea what to do about ghosts other than, well. You know. Ignore them. Most of the time they can't do anything in my reality, unless they have a meatsuit to puppet.

[saltwaterlungs]

if it comes down to it im going to have to eat it
which means like
total obliteration
nothing left of it
so tell me how the talk with friday and the captain goes so we can start thinking of an actual plan that doesnt force me to have to do that
