 [Cue the sound of a fifteen-year-old trying to play it cool and not sound nearly as nervous as she was starting to get:]


So...uh...shot in the dark here: is there anyone who's special abilities are acting a little...off?  [Because that was so specific]  Either the ones you've picked up from Jaunts along the way, or whatever powers you had before you got here?

[There might have been a slight emphasis on the latter, which was what she was more concerned with at the moment.]

No reason.  I was just curious, is all.

[She wasn't just curious.]

[There is no way this is going to end well for her, is there?]

Okay, so...where I'm from? Dead people are usually either...really, really quiet...and unmoving...or maybe they grunt a little, if they're zombies.

They don't really act like they're still alive. Otherwise everybody would start getting confused.

... that's because the dead people are in the world of the living. I'm only a piece of jaw in the world of the living. But I've been in the Golden Land! So I get to walk around like I'm alive there! But I'm not.

[Why does she keep saying all this like Zatanna was supposed to know this stuff?]

Well, sorry.

I've never even heard of the Golden Land. How was I supposed to know?
happyhalloween: (>:U)

[personal profile] happyhalloween 2016-01-21 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[Because she's Maria.]

Not every world has a Golden Land. The Golden Land is only for my family. But doesn't your world have a land for the dead?

Not unless you count Cemeteries.
happyhalloween: (B[)

[personal profile] happyhalloween 2016-01-22 10:04 am (UTC)(link)
... no Heaven or Hell or Yomi?

[Your world is a weird one.]
backwordscompatible: (looking up)

[personal profile] backwordscompatible 2016-01-22 12:48 pm (UTC)(link)
I mean, there is the Underworld.

[Because in her world = Greek/Roman mythology and gods and goddesses are a thing.]

But I've never been. And, last I heard, the dead stay dead down there.

I'm still dead. I never said I wasn't dead.

[Really, how complicated is this?]
backwordscompatible: (sensing a disturbance in the aster)

[personal profile] backwordscompatible 2016-01-23 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[...ugh...]

Okay, can I call a do-over yet? Or, even better, just quietly back away and pretend this whole conversation never happened?
happyhalloween: (>:U)

[personal profile] happyhalloween 2016-02-18 05:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[...]

If you promise not to be mean about dead people. There's a lot of us.
backwordscompatible: (...what?)

[personal profile] backwordscompatible 2016-02-20 02:44 am (UTC)(link)
...here?

[Somebody needs to make a list for her, so she doesn't end up offending even more "dead" people.]
happyhalloween: (>:U)

[personal profile] happyhalloween 2016-02-23 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
Uh-huh. Why do you think that one lady did a whole party for us?

[personal profile] backwordscompatible 2016-02-24 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
I thought that was just a party for having a party's sake. I didn't know there was any specific reason.
happyhalloween: (>:U)

[personal profile] happyhalloween 2016-02-24 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
Even I knew the party was for the Day of the Dead! And I didn't even know the dead had a day before the party!

backwordscompatible: (just like home (except not))

[personal profile] backwordscompatible 2016-02-24 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
...are we still talking about the same party?

[She was thinking the "prom", mostly. The other one had...mostly slipped her mind, because of other things going on with her.]
happyhalloween: (>:U)

[personal profile] happyhalloween 2016-02-24 03:31 am (UTC)(link)
I'm talking about the one where there were marigold flowers and lots of candy shaped like skulls. In Mr Leo's yard!
backwordscompatible: (pretty much)

[personal profile] backwordscompatible 2016-02-24 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, yeah, I think I missed that one. Sorry.

Sounds like...fun, though? [Maybe? Was a dead party supposed to be fun?]
happyhalloween: (=:3)

[personal profile] happyhalloween 2016-02-27 11:02 am (UTC)(link)
It was! I ate a lot of yummy skulls and listened to a funny story about a man who talked to trees.
