Who: Edward, Wander, anyone
When: Day 40, early afternoon
Where: coming from the 4th floor
What: TRIUMPHANT RETURN

[Look who's back from their nature exploration! Aside from both obviously being worn out and the bandage on Wander's leg, he and Edward seem to otherwise be unharmed.]

[There is a lot of nature stuck to Wander's sword, which he is kind of looking at now.]

Wander: Well, um, that was a good hunt.

Edward: It's too bad we don't have anything to show for it.

[slayerofgiants]

He is. It was an honor to hunt with him!

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

Ah, don't let him hear. He might get an ego if you say things like that.

[slayerofgiants]

Nothing wrong with a little boost to the ego now and again.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[Giggles.] I guess that's true too.

[slayerofgiants]

I will still make sure he does not get a big head, though!

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

That's a good man. [Most serious nod.]

[slayerofgiants]

[l-laughing]

So, did we miss anything?

[It HAS been three days, after all.]

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[She thinks she just missed Ed when she swung by. Since...no one said missing to her.]

Yeah! The meeting. Didn't you hear about it?

[slayerofgiants]

I did, when Kakashi was going around the apartments to get everyone's opinion on it. Ah, we left for nature right after that though, so...

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

...you were gone that long?!

[slayerofgiants]

Er, yes. It sure did not feel like it!

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

...those sort of things do tend to do that.

[slayerofgiants]

Hm? Have you gotten lost in nature as well?

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

Caves, actually. When I was younger.

[slayerofgiants]

Caves?

[Caves.]

Oh, ah. Yes, I heard about the caves...

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[Nods.] It was a HUGE maze out of the main area.

[slayerofgiants]

That sounds awfully confusing.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

It was. Even with phasing, I couldn't get out.

[slayerofgiants]

Phasing?

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[Nods.] It's a skill I have. Go through stuff.

[slayerofgiants]

Is it like...magic?

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

....not really, but it could be mistaken for magic. It's a biological function of a ghost.

[slayerofgiants]

Biological?

Er, ghost?

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

Natural function of the body. Like breathing, that's a biological function.

Yep! Ghost. I'm half ghost.

...which gets into a really complicated bit of explanation for how that happens.

[slayerofgiants]

Oh, like, um..sci, er, science?

[He remembers Aoko mentioning biology and science.]

[Wait half ghost?]

You are half spirit? I did...not think that possible.
