5 Little Ghosts ☠ Video

[talking_dead]

[Hello Asgard, it's Norman again in his winter jacket and wrapped up in his long red scarf. He's currently giving the feed an incredulous look while sitting on the ground next to Mary and her dog house. (Which may be strange in itself because Mary is actually a green colored sheep.) There's also a giant robot in the background, but that's not Norman's problem.]

Has anyone else been seeing weird box...things floating around? They errr sort of glow too.

[To show that he's NOT crazy, Norman tilts the feed view up so that there's a brightly colored, glowing box hovering above Mary's house.]

Think it's radioactive? [He's probably going to take it down anyways, but he wanted to ask first.]

((ooc: The prize box plot is now GO! Details are here, and Norman will be responding ICly after he's opened it to reveal what's inside. Your character can comment with what they found as well!))

[saving_sound]

Norman-san, you found one too? I wonder what's inside...

[She's holding onto a box herself, not sure if she should open it now or wait until she's off of the street.]

[talking_dead]

[It takes a couple of minutes, but Norman gets back on video with a regular cardboard box under one arm and some white cards in the other hand.]

I think they're some kind of pinata thing. [Reading one of the cards:] "Remember something important"? It's got one of those magic circles you were talking about before.

[saving_sound]

Huh? It's got runes?

[Well that changes things. Overcome by curiosity, she begins opening her own box, eventually pulling out identical cards.]

...These ones say the same thing. Remember something important...?

[talking_dead]

Maybe that's what you have to do for it to work? [He's quiet for a moment as he stares intensely at the card, and finally the array lights up briefly as the other side begins to develop into a photo of a ghost.

Of course it's on the opposite side that Norman's viewing:]

Did it do anything?

[saving_sound]

Ah--

Norman-san! There's a picture on the back!

[talking_dead]

[Flipping it over, Norman suddenly gasps at the picture before a big smile spreads over his face.]

It's my grandma! [This is pretty amazing, in his opinion, especially because it looks exactly like her. He really does miss his grandma in Asgard.]

[extradite]

Please don't spill the contents of glowing boxes on the floor.

[talking_dead]

Pieces of paper aren't going to hurt the floor. [Hi Shinji.]

Anyways, are you still inside? [He's going back into the house anyways.]

1/2

[extradite]

You never know, and I only just cleaned it.

[extradite]

...aaaa - do you need me to be inside? Are you waiting for a package?

[talking_dead]

Uh, no? But I wanted to show you something. So...if you're not around, I can wait.

[extradite]

[ ...he was going out, but it's just rare enough that Norman asks anything of him that he sort of has to. ]

It's fine. I'll... turn around. Really. Just - wait a moment. It won't be long! I'll rush.

[talking_dead]

[Yes good, Norman is quite pleased with that response.]

Okay! I'll be in the living room.

[5thchild]

Will you open it?

[talking_dead]

I already did. Seems like it was just a regular cardboard box. [He gestures to the box (not glowing this time) laying on the ground. The more interesting part is the cards Norman's holding onto.]

It had some pieces of paper inside that lets you print memories on them. See? [He'll just hold up the picture of his grandma to cover up the feed.]

[5thchild]

Print memories?

[ he tilts his head ] Who is she?

[talking_dead]

She's my grandma! [He's pretty happy to have a picture of her.] The cards say to 'remember something important', so I remembered my grandma and it turned into a picture of her.

[5thchild]

I see. [ he smiles wide ]

Your grandma, is she someone you love?

[talking_dead]

Yeah, of course. She's part of my family. [Even though she's a ghost now.]

audio; sob late

[occulthymns]

Is that thing dangerous?? What's 'radioactive'?

[Oh god Norman don't touch it.]

[Video]

[talking_dead]

Nope! It's got rune magic papers inside.

[Which is why he's waving some photos in front of the feed.]

[Audio]

[occulthymns]

Runes? Really? [She sounds skeptical, though they do look a little familiar.] Why those?

[talking_dead]

I don't know, I didn't make them. [He looks at the pictures again.] I mean...I used them, that's why there's pictures on them, but they were blank before.

[occulthymns]

How'd you get a picture on it?

[talking_dead]

I remembered my grandma, and it turned into that.
