Who: Tsuyukusa
When: Day 24, night
Where: hallway outside apartment sparkles
What:

[Treebird seems to have regained his humanoid form, even devoid of antlers of any sort. He's been staying pretty scarce after his run-in with Thusia in his basest form, and is currently leaning against one of the hallway walls near Apartment Sparkles, running his hands thoughtfully over a length of sturdy branch he apparently has brought in from Nature.

Investigate, y/n?]

Creepering, then? What did you do?

[rootless]

I just stayed outside for a while!

[ibedeadpeople]

And you didn't get eaten by anything?

[rootless]

...Why are you surprised?!

[ibedeadpeople]

Everybody says that outside is full of bitey death. But you look notably unbitten or dead, so either you have superpowers or people have been pulling one over on me...or both.

[rootless]

...Powers. It is pretty much full of bitey death, not going to lie.

[ibedeadpeople]

Darn. What sort of powers?

[rootless]

....A lot of them.

[ibedeadpeople]

Like protector of justice, walking around in spandex suit-amount of them?

[rootless]

....What?

[ibedeadpeople]

Isn't that what people with lots of powers do? I just channel spirits, that's not enough to get color-coded outfits or nifty helmets.

[rootless]

....I am a spirit.

[ibedeadpeople]

R-really? You look so--solid.

[...attempting to pat you now]

[rootless]

[is solid at.]

[ibedeadpeople]

[mind: blown]

[rootless]

....Are you done?

[ibedeadpeople]

...Yeah, think so.

So, is the reason you can't go inside because ghosts can't open doors?

[rootless]

[....reaches over and turns the doorknob.]

[ibedeadpeople]

Wh-whoa! Geez, what can't you do!?

[rootless]

Stay alive, apparently.

[ibedeadpeople]

I thought that was the point of being a spirit.

[rootless]

Whaddya know.

[ibedeadpeople]

Then what's the problem? Maybe you should go in and have breakfast. Low blood sugar is a major contributor to irrational grumpiness.

[rootless]

....I don't eat.

[ibedeadpeople]

Wh-what? But eating is one of the best parts of living!
