Week 4 [Day 13-Day 15]

[calloperators]

[Well that sure was an eventful trial. But on the bright side it looks like there’s some justice in this world, as meager as it is.

But even with the success, something starts feeling off the moment they leave the trial. Even if you might not realize it at first, the people living in this town are starting to seem more distant than normal, although you’re still more than welcome to chat with them.

Along with that, delivery trucks are suddenly popping up all over the town. You feel like they’re watching you....but thats impossible--youve only ever seen them delivery real packages...right?

Perhaps more terrifying however, is that now the Bowling Alley and the Arcade are closed! That’s so much good entertainment… gone….

...Also, starting this week something new is happening with the ghosts. What is that? Well… just wait and see.]

[Those of you around might see Pyro's shambling corpse standing outside the arcade, gazing up at the ruined sign and trying to peer into the windows.

You then might realize that the sun is out, and Pyro shouldn't be here. Not during the day.

Should they?

But they're here, and as they see you approach, they wave enthusiastically. For those who have seen Pyro's ghost in the past, for some reason, they seem...slightly more tangible. In one hand, they're gripping a fistful of lighters. They then point to the lighters, then towards the empty arcade.]

Whnna hllp me?

[Later on, Pyro is seen at the beach, sitting in the sand and using their gloves to build up a mound of sand and trash. Occasionally, their hands clip through the sand, but it doesn't take long for them to make contact again. They're humming a quiet tune to themselves, which is somewhat obscured by the fact they keep coughing and wheezing out ghost blood. Nasty. But at least they're having fun building a sandcastle, apparently....]

[Michalis is really just here to see if this place is closed like the rest; he recognizes that Pyro is here, but it takes him a moment to realize what's wrong with this little fact.

It's daytime. Why...?

...Okay, you know what, Pyro is asking him a question and he's here to answer it.]

Very well. Do you want something more effective than the lighter?

[rainblower]

[Oh, it's Michalis! Their very best friend! They like Michalis a lot. He likes fire almost as much as they do, and he knows how to have fun!

Their eyes(?) seem to sparkle with joy as soon as Michalis says it. They nod vigorously, flapping their hands around as they stare at him. Absolutely!! Where can they get this thing?]

[iote]

...I still have the flamethrower you made me. With the odd spray can. I can get it for you.

Arcade

[beardcheck]

...hey.

[What's so weird about daylight? Pyro's a zombie. Ghost. Thing, not a vampire.]

How's being dead.

[rainblower]

[They tilt their head to the side, seemingly mulling over this question. After a moment or two, they give Grog a big thumbs up. It's pretty good, now that they can get back to setting things on fire!

They then gesture towards the lighters in their hands. Wanna get in on this?]

[beardcheck]

....Yeah, okay. Fuck this place.

[He takes a lighter and- ....stares at it. How do.]
