34 days till Halloween [video/action for breeding center]

_{[HELLO, JOHTO. HAVE A SCREEN FULL OF JACK FACE. It's the turn of the month and somebody is excited about it.]}

Hello, everyone! It's Ok-toh-bah! I know some of you have to have Halloween where you're from!

Tell me what you do there! I'd love to get some new ideas to take home with me if-- You know. Anyhow!

_{[ALMOST let the sad come through. ALMOST. NO. Jack will fight his homesickness with spreading Halloween to every living breathing thing he comes in contact with this month.]}

------------------ACTION------------------------

_{[Anyone in the Breeding household will notice Jack rushing around with a notebook tucked under one arm, writing down locations and ideas for decorations to put up. >8U MUST. DECORATE. ALL THE THINGS. He may accidentally trip over a soul or two.]}

Heeeeh, really? [[so interested!]] Have you ever managed it? To talk to the dead, I mean?

Oh-- well I am dead. Or I was! So...yes!

Eh? You were? For more than a few minutes? What was it like?

Oh, I've been dead for a long, long time! It was fine. It wasn't as bothersome as being alive.

_{[Jack takes a moment to eye a bandaid on one of his fingers. Origami accident.]}

But having a heartbeat is nice. You don't fall apart easily as you do when you're dead.

[[a big smile there]] I can imagine!

So you weren't a ghost or anything, then? If you could fall apart?

Oh, no, I was a skeleton. I did know several ghosts though.

Heeeeeeeeeh, really? [[rapt with attention now.]] That's amazing!

_{[Jack isn't one to let praise go to his head but...it was kind of nice being admired for being a dead person instead of treated like a crazy old man. He grins broadly.]}

What about you? Have you ever talked to the dead?

Aaa-- only once, sort of... [[rubs the back of his neck a little]] Though I don't know if it really counts...

[[since he was kinda dead himself at the time...

And the Ring's spirit did NOT count.]]

Well don't keep me waiting! I want to hear a ghost story.

It's not really one, though... [[a bit apologetic and sheepish]]

I just met my sister's spirit for a moment when... when I had died myself.

Though it was just for a minute! She sent me back.

Oh, I see.

_{[Though he had frightened people to death, the idea of people dying before their time did make him sad. All the people around him Going Home made him understand the feelings of others more. It gets hard to understand why death bothers people after being dead for years and years.]}

I'm glad you got to see her.

Un, me too. I wouldn't mind being haunted if it were by her. [[a warmer smile there since whoops, he just brought the emo to the conversation and he really hadn't meant to.]] Or really by any ghost! [[once more excluding the spirit of the Ring]]

Oh, I don't know about that! I've met some pretty nasty ghosts. One I knew had a habit of hanging people upside down while they slept. I'm pretty sure that's not good for you.

[[covers a small laugh]] Sounds like that would be a problem! I don't think any of the ones in my world could do something that physical!

What are your ghosts like?

_{[Maybe the kid hadn't met that kind of ghost yet. Jack sort of hoped he never did. He had enough bumps and bruises now not to wish pain on anyone. Possession probably wasn't very fun.]}

[[Possession was the WORST, Bakura knew that first hand!]]

There's all sorts of different types, a lot of them the spirits of people who either died with strong emotion or with unfinished business, or who didn't have proper rites done for them. Some of them are vengeful and cause terrible disruptions in the home until they can be put to rest, others, like zashiki-warashi actually bring good luck as long as you treat them well!

_{[Jack grins. All this talk of ghosts is making him homesick, but in that bitter sweet way. He's glad to see someone who appreciates the spirit world instead of just fearing it.]}

I wish there were ghosts here...and not only ghost pokemon.

That would be really cool, un!

Ne, I'm thinking maybe for Halloween to try holding a seance to see if there really are any real ghosts around, did you want to come?

Maybe! If I can't make it, I'll make sure to tune in gear-wise!

I'll be sure to broadcast it, then!
