[ So uhm. The background on this post might be a little different. Obviously not her own room, or even world. ]

Hey. I need someone to go clothes shopping with me. The SSS isn't around anymore, so wearing the uniform all the time isn't really working. Oh-- if you're going to worldhop over to my world, I'm not staying there anymore, so I'll come to you.

[ Those who have been to Rokkenjima might recognize the background as the study, and those who are in that world are welcome to come find her. Yuri has probably kept pretty quiet since it's weird being in someone's actual home instead of a school dorm for more than an hour or two, so whether or not they noticed her being there or not is up to you.

Overall, for basically moving into Battler's bedroom, she's pretty level-headed right now. ]

That was before I even knew what her actual name was and living here was something I would've actually laughed about because of how ridiculous it would've seemed.

[shinjaeba]

That still doesn't change the fact that her calling you that doesn't mean anything. You aren't part of this family.

[tenminutes]

Funny, because that doesn't change the fact that I'm still staying here.

[shinjaeba]

Just because you're sleeping with Battler!

[tenminutes]

I'm not sleeping with him, I'm sleeping next to him, stupid!

[shinjaeba]

You admitted to sleeping in his bed!

[tenminutes]

Yes, adjacent to him! "Sleeping with" him sounds like something else that's not happening! SO just.. pick another phrase to use!

[shinjaeba]

Like he would just let you sleep next to him!

[tenminutes]

He's not that bad of a pervert. Nevermind that he'd end up with a broken nose if I had to ask him if there was a flashlight in the bed even once, I don't even have to threaten him with that because I know he's a good guy no matter what kind of perverted stuff comes out of his mouth.

[shinjaeba]

You're just making up excuses. I'm not stupid - I know what happens when a teenage boy and a teenage girl sleep next to each other in a bed. Even if you haven't? It'll happen soon.

[tenminutes]

If I crawled into that bed wearing absolutely nothing, Battler would make some perverted comments, then he would shove me out and tell me to go get some clothes on the second he couldn't deal anymore. There's not an issue.

[shinjaeba]

You're a good liar, aren't you? If you weren't a ghost and if Battler wasn't dead... I'd be almost worried.

[tenminutes]

Battler's not dead and he's not going to die. [ There's a very clear change in her tone. It wasn't like she didn't know that 'fact,' but there's an obvious determination in her tone. ]

[shinjaeba]

Only Eva Ushiromiya got off of Rokkenjima alive. This is a fact. [She might not have emotionally been the same person she had been but...]

[tenminutes]

I don't care what you or anyone else have to say. Even if Lambdadelta had said that there was absolutely no chance in hell, I still wouldn't care.

[shinjaeba]

It'd be better for you if he did die. Ghosts need to stick together, right...?

[tenminutes]

[ Oh whatever. She doesn't need to defend herself to Evatrice. She's not going to go around declaring things and jinxing herself either. ]

Well, a grandma like you would know best, right?

[shinjaeba]

What - I'm not dead!

[tenminutes]

No, you just smell like it.

[shinjaeba]

You're probably just smelling your own rotting flesh.

[tenminutes]

I must have a superpower. That's off in the ground somewhere. [ Hopefully. ] This body isn't the one that was alive, you moron. If I were really a ghost, I wouldn't be able to touch anything. I'm just dead. I even have to eat and everything still or I'll starve-- I just won't die from it. That's a 100% tested theory, by the way.

[shinjaeba]

I think I'll have to test the limits of that bo-dy. [She says "body" in a sing-song voice. Which is soon followed up by exactly what she means.] It's been a while since I've actually killed anyone. Even if you won't die? I think it'll be fun. I'll make sure to leave the messy stuff in the study for Battler to clean up.

[tenminutes]

Uh huh. Battler cut off my fingers once while I was still awake, but I pissed him off while he was trying to torture me so he cut my throat. Then Bernkastel and Lambdadelta spent half a day telling me how I was going to get strung up by the bunny girls with those golden things? That hurt a little. I fell off of the roof of the chapel out there once too, it was actually kind of funny to watch Battler freak out about that one. Then there was one time when one of the wizards on the community was using me for experiments in exchange for a worldhop before I had one of my own. Nothing quite like having your cells physically transformed into other substances while your nerves are still in tact. That one was a little worse than a katana to the chest.

[shinjaeba]

Battler did that? Kyahaha! I'll have to remember that one. Hm... That's a lot of ways, isn't it? I can think of some more. Really - it's nice that you can rattle all that off but that only means I have to use my most creative methods.

[Like... Throwing her in a giant oven, turning her into a butterfly and feeding her to a spider, drowning her in jelly...]

Really, even Battler's method was rather boring. A slit throat? That's the best he could come up with? Let me show you what real torture is.

[tenminutes]

I'm just that good at pissing him off so he gets sidetracked even when he's temporarily evil. I don't really want to be tortured and it's not going to prove anything other than that you're more bored than I am. I'm better at being on the other end of the torture, if I'm being honest.
