This place is just hilarious. Seriously, I can tell. Barrel of laughs a minute from here on out.

[Phantom Girl has swapped out her black and white costume for a dusty old tan jumpsuit and a whole lot of weird electronic equipment. Actually, she vaguely resembles......]

Apparently, 'helping the city' translates into 'ghost-hunting' today, which is just about the worst use of my superpowers I've ever heard. ...Maybe I need a new costume insignia. Anyway, I'm not egotistical enough to think I can handle everything on my own - I've only been here like, two weeks, and yeah, there's stuff in this crazy place I've never gone up against before.

So! ...Who wants to help me out? I can make it worth your while. Never hurts to have a bona fide superhero in your debt, right?

I've been hearing about this weird castle that turns all spooky at night. In the, uh... Leo district, I think it was? It's pretty recognizable. Lots of gold filigree and that kind of thing. If you think you're game, feel free to meet me there a few minutes before midnight.

I'll totally bring snacks.

((Edit! The action/log portion will be taking place here instead.))

...You do realize that some of us live in that castle, right?

...You live in a haunted castle? Are you sure that's a good idea for your, uh, extended life expectancy?

It's not haunted... though I can't really explain what happens to it, my Master knows about it better than I do. Either way, I really wouldn't suggest trying to come inside during the 13th hour; you'll get lost and put in danger and end up on the roof when its all done. Only my Master can navigate properly during that time, and I don't know if she'd approve of what you're doing enough to want to help.

((I hadn't realized the castle was being used for anything! Sorry about that. The locale will be officially changed elsewhere, but I'll just keep the conversation going for now.))

Um. ...Right.

[It's probably rude to ask about slavery or anything along those lines. Phantom Girl bites her tongue on that one.]

Honestly, danger describes 90% of my life, anyway, so it wouldn't really be a huge issue. But I'm not going to go wandering around someone's house for something like this, you're right about that. Sorry.

Just out of curiosity, any special reason you moved into a random monster-infested castle?

((no problem at all! i half considered approaching you about them busting in and finding the cast sitting in the main area all ?!?! but none of them wouldve been outside of their rooms near midnight so they wouldnt get caught in castle oblivion uwu))

[Kairi has never considered how someone might misconstrue her calling Aqua 'Master'. Oops.]

It's a castle from our world, think of it like a training facility to learn more about our particular abilities under the guidance of a Master. I'm not entirely sure why it gets all weird at night, but we're all right every other hour and we aren't affected if we stay in our rooms until it's over. It can get a little awkward, but it's otherwise great and has awesome stuff to train with.

((Aha, sorry again!))

Oh, you mean that kind of -- Right. Phew.

I think I mostly get what you mean, though I'd still probably personally sleep somewhere else. Imagine needing to use the restroom at the wrong time.

I'll find somewhere else; your place is just the first one some guy on the street thought of when I was asking about weird things that happened during the 13th Hour.

We all learned the hard way to go before midnight hits. You aren't really wrong, though.

[She laughs a little.]

No problem! At least I caught you before you came knocking. Why exactly are you going on a 13th hour ghost hunt, anyways?

So you know the Blue Room or wherever it is we're supposed to go to learn about Personas? Someone there asked me to do her a favor.

...I'm not sure why this is a favor, but. I couldn't just say 'no that sounds dumb' or anything.

Oh, you're doing a quest for Caroline? I can't say I'm surprised she'd want you to do something like a ghost hunt, she has a lot of odd requests sometimes since she isn't able to see Hinoto-ri herself; interferes with the job and whatnot!

Are you still looking for people to accompany you on the trip? It sounds like it'd be pretty fun.

...You mean she's stuck in that room all day? That sounds like fun. I only spent a half hour in there and the whole atmosphere was already putting me to sleep. ...Maybe I'll bring her some ghost movies or something.

Anyway, I won't say no to more help. Just carrying all of this stuff alone would probably wear me out.

Yeah, her and her brother and Igor. As far as I'm aware they're always in there and aren't supposed to leave, they need to be around to help out people with their Personas and stuff. It's definitely gotta get boring, which is why it's important we help her and her brother out when they have requests! Gotta bring 'em some fun.

Oh, awesome~ Do you have a new place in mind since the Castle is out, or do you need help finding a new location? I could ask around at my job.

If there's one thing I've noticed, it's that the people here really like gossiping about us. I'll see if I can dig up any more information - I'm pretty good at hearing things.

But thanks! I'm Phantom Girl, by the way.

Haha, that much is definitely true! It shouldn't be too difficult anyways, there are a lot of weird buildings around here.

Nice to meet you, Phantom Girl! My name's Kairi.

I'll let you know when I find something more suitable and less occupied by things that breathe. Sound good?

Perfect! Talk to you later, then.

Great. See ya soon.

[And in a bit, she will call Kairi about a weird hospital...]

((Thanks for being interested! =D The action portion is here. No tag order, just feel free to tag in and out as you have time. I'll try to NPC some stuff and hopefully awesome times will be had! I think I'm going to try to move it along soon...))
