 Roses are red, violet is... green.

Yes!  I'm not talking in rhyme!

Is that a common problem?

[schrodingersghost]

Only this last week.

[poison_puppet]

Did you get hit with a spell or something?

[schrodingersghost]

...Something.

[poison_puppet]

I didn't know magic could do stuff like that! It seems so...useless. Not a benefit, but not dangerous either.

[selfished]

... So what, do ya expect a gold star for it now?

[schrodingersghost]

Um, what?

[selfished]

You're makin' this whole 'not talking in rhyme' thing out to be some great accomplishment! Anyone can not talk in rhyme, y'know.

[schrodingersghost]

How lucky for you.

[selfished]

What, don't tell me ya are from some sorta world where it's normal.

[schrodingersghost]

Only when someone decides to get creative.

[selfished]

So there's a person who decides all that stuff in your world?

[schrodingersghost]

No.

[selfished]

Huh? Then why are ya sayin' 'when someone gets creative'? Who's this person who is s'posed to get creative?

[schrodingersghost]

He's not in charge of anything.

[selfished]

Man, I don't get it anymore.

[ghostshippingly]

You managed to break the curse? That's great!

[schrodingersghost]

Yeah, somehow.

[ghostshippingly]

What broke it in the end?

[schrodingersghost]

...Long, very complicated story. But the first break was when I said Orange.

[ghostshippingly]

Orange... oh, because it doesn't rhyme! Of course!

That's really very clever.

[schrodingersghost]

Thanks!

[ghostshippingly]

You're welcome!

Oh, I can't remember if we ever introduced ourselves to each other. I'm Pearl, it's nice to meet you.

[schrodingersghost]

Nice to meet you too. My name is Danny Fenton.

[ghostshippingly]

So, do you usually have to deal with spirits causing trouble for you, or was that just the one time?

[schrodingersghost]

My town is pretty infested with ghosts. Weird things happen sometimes. {Both technically true.]

[ghostshippingly]

Wow! That sounds like it must be a real problem. I've heard of buildings being haunted before, but never of a ghost infestation that large.

[schrodingersghost]

...It has its moments.

[ghostshippingly]

Any really bad ones?

[schrodingersghost]

.,..A few.

[ghostshippingly]

I'm sorry about that... dealing with malevolent spirits is really hard.

[schrodingersghost]

Oh, I don't deal with them. I leave that to the professional ghost hunters. Which I'm not.

[ghostshippingly]

Um. Okay.

Does your world really have professional ghost hunters? That's really cool!

[schrodingersghost]

Unfortunately.

[ghostshippingly]

Why unfortunately? I suppose I could understand why if they mistook friendly spirits for bad ones, but... does that happen?

[schrodingersghost]

According to ghost-hunters all ghosts are evil. No exceptions. And most of them are pretty trigger-happy.

[ghostshippingly]

What?! But that's not true at all! A real ghost-hunter would check their facts and do plenty of research instead of assuming something like that. Aren't there any mediums in your world that they could consult?

[schrodingersghost]

Never met one.

[ghostshippingly]

That's such a shame... they'd probably be able to clear things up very easily if they were around. Ugh, if I lived in your world I'd give those ghost hunters a piece of my mind! I truly would.

[schrodingersghost]

What do they do?

...Probably wouldn't work.

[ghostshippingly]

Channel spirits so people can talk with them, mostly. But we also exorcise evil spirits on occasion, and of course a fully-fledged medium is very knowledgable in spiritual matters, so she can act as a kind of spiritual consultant.

Why wouldn't it work?

[schrodingersghost]

Stubbornness, mostly.

[ghostshippingly]

Oh, I see. That must be frustrating. It always is when people don't listen.
