A Wrong Turn or Twenty (Shiyami)

He had to admit. He didn't quite get this strange creature's humour but four hundred years of unlife was quite spectacular. Shane could see himself going mad having to live like that for so long. On the other hand if one could live forever than they could get so much done. If they had the right way to do it great wisdom could be found. Much like the wisdom of the longer lived races.

It was odd how the girl spoke of her death. Maybe the fact she had died so young meant that she hadn't grown attached to living. Maybe it was the fact she didn't remember how it happened. That had to be a blessing. Death surely wasn't that nice and the memory of it wasn't something he think would fade.

The other ghost, who did remember his death, didn't seem overly bothered either despite the horrifying betrayal. His own father had killed him; stabbed him right through the eye. Him and his whole family. What a terrible, terrible way to go. Shane had to look away when the ghost showed the wound. Even translucent it was a gruesome sight.

“Are... Are you hear to visit it? The site of your death?” Shane had a certain morbid curiosity about the whole thing. He didn't know what he expected he would find but he found himself wanting to go and see it. He wanted to see the room that had housed such a horror. What if there were new residents living happily and normally under the same roof where a man had once killed all his family with a knife. What if something like that had happened in his own home!?!

Shiyami shrugged nonchalantly at the boy's question. Not that he didn't care, but more as a method of hiding his true feelings, that were in a turmoil. "I just visited the place where it happened. If it wasn't for that, I would be floating around the Bronze Woods, or sleeping. And yes, before you ask, ghost do sometimes need sleep. Sometimes.", he said with a flat tone, revealing nothing related to his thoughts within his words.

Sighing once again, he looked down the corridor with his eye seemingly filled with the sorrows of far too many years. Reaching over and retying the ribbon back in Kimi's hair, he pointed at the wall behind the boy, and told her "Head on home. I'll be there soon.", gently. Kimi thought for a moment, before hugging Shiyami tightly, and waving cheerfully at the boy, and flying to and through the wall. "She died because of me...", Shiyami finally spoke, with guilt detectable in his voice.

Ghost Sleeping? He'd never thought of that before. It didn't seem necessary without a body but, then again, he had always found a good sleep necessary to gather his thoughts. Days had to have beginnings and ends. If you could not sleep forever than it would never end. Endless life. Immortality didn't seem like such a nice concept if it was faced without the possibility of sleep.

Shane waved as the girl left a little sad to see the moderately sane one leave... Through a wall. That still stunned him somewhat. Then it made him wonder what he could get up to if he could do that. Surely he could become the best thief in the world.

When Shiyami expressed the guilt he felt about the girl's death Shane suddenly felt very awkward. It seemed an odd thing to tell a complete stranger and Shane wasn't sure how he was meant to react. Was he meant to comfort the ghost? At least he was finally showing emotion. It made the ghost much more human.

“How did it happen?” Shane asked deciding that was the ghost’s goal. He just wanted to confide in someone. So Shane would listen. After all he had nothing else to do.
