Video: un; apparition (CW: underage drinking, teen marriage/childbirth, depression)

[unphase]

[unlike her usual status, sitting a warmly lit room and looking bright-eyed and alert, Tinya's looking weary, dark circles under her eyes and even more pale than usual, limp in her armchair. she's still dressed and made-up Just So, but her kittens are mewing fretfully while Carmilla flutters around her.

and Moonlight stands in front of her, tail puffed up to twice its usual size, the look on her face pretty much screaming "fuck around and find out"

Tinya's holding a mostly empty whisky decanter, its stopper looking like it rolled to a halt absent-mindedly]

If it's not...too very personal. And I know it might be. But. Have you seen them? I can't be the only one who's seeing them, right?

Right?

Which "them" are we talking about? The piggybacking demons or the repetitive-motion ghosts?

[unphase]

Ghosts. Too many to count.

[wwrench]

Not just you. Whether that makes it better or worse, I don't know.

Found any that you know?

[unphase]

Too many. Everybody.

[which is true. she's even seeing her father, the last person in her life she ever wants to see. with one exception]

[wwrench]

That seems to be the way of things. [Is it wrong for Wrench to almost wish he'd find a haunting of his own? Even if the ghost relived the very worst moments of its existence. A familiar face in any form would be welcomed.]

Have they started getting aggressive?

[unphase]

Yeah. [Tinya had far too many. her great-great grandmother, her great-grandmother, her father, her mother, her husband, her son]

They have. The cats are scared because they know something's wrong.
