Hey Sheena!  I was wondering if you had some time to help me out with something.  Its been a while since I did a check up on how strong my ghost powers are, and I really need a second person to help measure stuff.  You know, like how many miles an hour I can fly and how many times I can duplicate myself.

Well, the first time we met, you nearly ran into me while flying down the halls at high speed. I mean, sure I didn't immediate think, "Oh wow, he's a ghost." It could have been some other kind of superpower, but you had a certain ghostly glow to you.

And the floating was kinda a tip off.

[....Wait, she thought she was talking to Phantom? Danny knew there wasn't much of a difference in their voices, but the echo he had as a ghost was usually enough to keep people from connecting them.

But hey, he could work with this. It was even the truth, so he could just agree with what she thought. And then make sure Danny FENTON and Dairine never met.

What could possibly go wrong?]

...That's right. I'm a ghost.

[Sort of? It's not like she caught his name while ghostified. And while she noticed the difference, his voice was totally recognizable.

Only everything. Just ask Conan.]

Huh. Odd to meet a ghost who's so... self-aware.

...What's that supposed to mean?

Most ghosts are just recordings of past events or people. If there's enough emotion or intent, the event imprints on the surrounding area. When the land remembers, you end up with a ghostly sight from years past.

It's rare for these visions to be capable of interaction, let alone speech. That you are able to do both implies that whatever happened was incredibly traumatic.

Yeah, well... There are ghosts and then there are ghosts. Sounds like you're talking about the level ones and twos.

Dictated

[wizard_redfive]

Oh yeah? How many levels are there?

Re: Dictated

[schrodingersghost]

No clue. Its the guys in white's scale. I just know that apparently I'm a seven something. And I'm not the strongest ghost out there.

Dictated

[wizard_redfive]

Guys in white? [Something sounds off about that, but Dairine is not quite sure what.] Probably a ten point scale then.

The government's ghost-hunting goons.

Dictated

[wizard_redfive]

The government has a ghost-hunting department?

Re: Dictated

[schrodingersghost]

Yeah. They're major creeps too.

Dictated

[wizard_redfive]

You don't say.

I'd suspect an alien division before ghosts. I'm not sure if I'm relieved or disappointed.

Re: Dictated

[schrodingersghost]

Maybe the alien division is more competent.

Dictated

[wizard_redfive]

God, I hope not. I'd rather not have government agents show up at my door. I promised dad they wouldn't.

Re: Dictated

[schrodingersghost]

...You have alien issues?

Dictated

[wizard_redfive]

Sort of. I signed my family up for an intergalatic exchange program. The aliens came with it.

Re: Dictated

[schrodingersghost]

...Cool?

Dictated

[wizard_redfive]

I guess you could say that. Once things calmed down, they turned out to be pretty nice guys.

[Surprisingly enough.]

Re: Dictated

[schrodingersghost]

Well, that doesn't sound too bad.

[Better than what would happen if any ghosts ever tried to move into his house.]

Dictated

[wizard_redfive]

Yup. I mean sure there were a few near slips with their disguises and a lot of cultural stuff to explain, but given the choice, I'd do it again.
