[whatthewrackspurt]

Hello, everyone.

I've never been on a ship like this before. Or any ship, really, so I can't say for certain whether the person in charge is always so elusive when it comes to answering questions. I suspect he thinks it's all in good fun, making you believe one thing but telling you another. I don't think I understand his humor, though.

I'm a little concerned about having made a deal with him - he could be one of the Rotfang conspirators in disguise and is set on prolonging this journey indefinitely until all our worlds are nothing but dust and spores.

Is that why all of you are having such strange dreams?

Either way, I hope there's pudding involved. It makes death seem just a little bit cheerier. I think that's why people eat so much at funerals.

Ghosts must get very jealous during mealtimes.

You'll certainly need it here.

[whatthewrackspurt]

I expect so. Only five minutes here and I've already met my first banshee.

[forsaken_queen]

[Wow, don't smile at her like that. What the hell is she supposed to do with this polite enthusiasm?]

Yes, well the barge has no shortage of unique persons.

[whatthewrackspurt]

[Embrace it, Sylvanas.

Embraaace it]

Do all of them sing too?

[forsaken_queen]

[B| No.]

I certainly hope not.

[whatthewrackspurt]

I like to sing, too. Mainly just school songs or things I make up.

You're much prettier than I thought a banshee would be. People in my world think they're monsters and try to hunt them down.

[forsaken_queen]

[The flinch is small, but it happens. What was going on lately on this ship? The approaching mirror must be making everyone lose their damn minds.]

I am a monster, girl.

[whatthewrackspurt]

I think there are very few actual monsters in the world. Most things people think are monsters are generally just misunderstood because they look or act differently than what you'd expect.

[forsaken_queen]

There are those, and there are actual monsters. Seeing as I know myself better than your do, take my word on it. I know what I am.

[No you don't, Sylvanas. Or it wouldn't bother you so much.]

[whatthewrackspurt]

The worst thing about monsters is that they're not self-aware enough to know they're monsters. They take too much enjoyment out of hurting other people to care what they're called.

[forsaken_queen]

How would you know? You're not a monster.

[whatthewrackspurt]

No, I'm not.

But I also try not to let what other people say about me become the truth in my head.

[forsaken_queen]

[Nope. This is too much. Sorry Luna, she's hanging up.]

[whatthewrackspurt]

[Luna, though a bit disheartened, doesn't shift her expression. She reaches forward and turns off her own communicator. Was she too pushy?]

Not here.

[walkthedarkpath]

[ Oh he's listening in silently. Creepy creeper, creepin'.]
