[mustbepurged]

Not in any direct sense, I think...

-- Oh, does Hua Cheng count?

[guestservices]

[they. pause.]

...actually, I'm not sure. Did he tell you he was a ghost?

[mustbepurged]

Well... He's a "Ghost King," and he said he doesn't mind being called a ghost, and he talks a lot about how to show respect to the dead...

... He doesn't look very ghostly, though... He has feet and everything.

[guestservices]

Maybe some ghosts are more evolved than others. [shrug!] Some people claim to see full apparitions right down to having the same smell as people they once knew. It's a possibility.

What are you more likely to believe? A trusted friend, or a piece of paper somebody randomly sent you?

[mustbepurged]

Oh. Maybe the information in my books was incomplete...

And... the friend, I suppose...

[guestservices]

I don't think it's a bad thing to get information from books, but there's a lot to learn about the supernatural outside of them, too.

[but they nod.]

And that would be the advantage of a power.

[mustbepurged]

Do you think it'd still be persuasive if the target is really skeptical? Or... what if they're really scared of ghosts?

[giving aikawa a dream-ghost sure would have. an effect.]

[guestservices]

Well then you freak someone out and change their disposition. [that apparently doesn't bother them. also please be nice to aikawa everyone god.]

[mustbepurged]

[she nods... no bullying aikawa.]

I see. Thank you for helping to satisfy my curiosity.

[She seems satisfied with the explanation, at least.]

Oh, by the way... I got sandwiches on a whim, but is there any particular kind of food you like?

[guestservices]

Anytime. I never mind answering questions as long as I can actually answer them. [haha.]

...the sandwiches were a good pick. I'm not really picky. I'm usually okay with whatever I can find when I remember.
