[ OMG. <3 Like I'm literally smiling. DO YOU KNOW HOW BADLY I MISSED YOU?
Yeah, I have no idea what you said in between 'LOL' and 'took a whole month...'. Bahahaha. What's wrong with your keyboard, ol' friend?
Edit -
Now that you're back, I can post. Bahahaha. Post'll come soon. D: ]]

[ I'm still so happy to see you online every time I go to Respals. <3 Gosh, I missed you. ;-; I literally wanna' hug you right now. We should do another role play to celebrate, even though I have tons. |D
Also, I don't want to make you wait for my post any longer, even though you might not be able to respond with that key board. D: But, I'll just assume that Powra dropped the piece of wood to wake her up? Even if you hadn't meant it like that, I'll just do it so you won't have to wait. <3 ]]
My eyes blinked open at the sound of something dropping up stairs. I jolted up. Footsteps? No, just a big plop. The events before I fell asleep came back to mind, but maybe it was just a dream. Maybe the boys were upstairs helping me out. I sat up from my position on the bed, my back sinking into the cushion weakly. That had to be it. Just a dream. All the boxes were gone! A relieved sigh came from my mouth. Just a dream.
I got up and looked at the light, the relieved sigh only lasting so long.
If the boys really weren't here, then what was that sound upstairs?
The words of the last guy that left came back. What had happened to the others in this house? I guess I'd find out.
Coming to the bed room, I opened the door slightly peaking in. No one. I sighed, feeling so much better. Opening the door fully with out thinking of being stealthy, I stepped into the room. The second I came in I shrieked, my eyes unbelieving.
I paused, blinking twice, wondering if what I saw was real. My breathing was hitched again. I backed away as far as I could.
"Wha-... Wha..."
Was I supposed to run now? I gasped, reaching for the door handle. But that's probably what the monster wanted. For me to turn my back on it so it could suck my brains out. Or... Whatever else ghosts really did. I let the tears go, streaming down my cheeks the second I allowed it. Was this how I'd die? By a ghost? A thing that's used to tell fictitious stories?

[[/on le computer/ I am. Not all the time, though, it varies. I barely slept last night though, I don't think I'll sleep much tonight either. x3]]
Damn. Why did he have to drop that stupid piece of wood? Everything was going so well before then... Well, never mind. She probably hadn't woken up anyway, and if he was lucky he could get this all finished before she did. At least, that's what he thought until he heard a scream, and wondered why she was screaming already. She was clever alright, if she realized that quickly there was someone in her home that shouldn't be.
There was another moment there when he thought he would be okay. When she opened the door and didn't seem to see him, and sighed, as if she suddenly felt relaxed. That is, until she screamed again. What was with the living and screaming? He could have sworn he didn't scream that much when he was alive.
Oh great. Now she was backing away. This was just getting better and better... Stumbling over her words now. When she reached for the door handle, he moved across the floor to where she was standing, reaching out to grab her hand. Of course, he wasn't quite solid enough yet to get a good hold on her wrist, and his hand passed right through hers. Realizing that would probably frighten her, he pulled his hand back to his side, standing awkwardly. That had felt... strange. Electrifying. The living didn't usually feel like that.
''I, ah...'' Powra tried to speak, despite knowing his voice would be other-worldly to her. Maybe he should just leave, before he really did frighten her to death. ''Sorry for waking you.'' He sounded sincere, and as he moved past her and into the hallway, stepping literally through the door, he spoke softly over his shoulder. ''I don't want to hurt you, but... Others do.'' Hopefully that would be warning enough for her, and she might leave, and be safe. Yeah, and it was just as likely he would be alive again the next morning.

[[ No sleep is unhealthy for you, Ty. :c
She didn't actually 'scream' the first time in the post. |D She yelled 'Hey boys?'. As in, to get the boys attention to see if they'd respond. It's fine though. |D
I'm getting off to read. Post'll come soon.

[[ Kay. I'm back. <3 Can we have a new role play later on, not now? I realized how many role plays I have and it's just like... o.o stressful once everyone's on and I just choose a few to respond to. :D]]
I held my breath as this... Thing came closer to me, my heart hammering in my chest, telling me that this was when I was supposed to scream and run to a terrible fate. Instead of pulling my hand away, I let him touch my wrist. That coldness I felt before came back. How long has this ghost been here?
That shouldn't be the question I was asking. I should be asking him - no pleading to him - to let me live. He went through the door and I hesitated a moment before opening the door, seeing if this was all real. I peaked my eyes through the doorway to look at him as he said over his shoulder,
''I don't want to hurt you, but... Others do.''
I swallowed. Coming through the door nervously but staying at the doorway. "You're real. You were making me so cold when I first came... You scared the men away. You... You put the boxes in other rooms. You...You're real."
I barely heard what he said. I was too busy shocked. Ghosts were real? Maybe the men gave me some kind of rape drug and these were the repercussions.
"If you're not going to hurt me, then what are you doing here?"

[[Sure thing, just lemme know when you're running low. ♥]]
Powra turned and looked at her, unsure of how to explain things to her. He had been planning to just leave after he gave his warning, but she wasn't as hysterical as she had been. Perhaps he should just get her facts straight that it wasn't him that scared the men away. He wouldn't want her to think that.
''Well, this is a lot to explain...'' He murmured, but more to himself than to her. Running his hand through his hair, he decided to take things one at a time.
''I was making you cold because I came to greet you, although the temperature was out of my control, I assure you. I was not responsible for the lights shattering, although yes, I did move the boxes. I thought it might be helpful to you, but apparently not.''
Why oh why had he even bothered trying to help one of the living? There were just so many things they didn't understand until they died, and then, well, they weren't exactly the living anymore, were they?
''And what am I doing here? I was doing the same thing you are now. Moving into a new house. The key difference being that I didn't get a warning, whereas you are doing. There are spirits here that play games with lives, and to them, you're just a toy.''
Looking straight into her eyes for a moment, his gaze piercing, he decided it was definitely best to leave now. He had done far too much already, and was beginning to feel the repercussions. As he moved away, he faded into thin air, until there was nothing left but a slightly colder temperature where he walked.

[[ Omg. How did you get that heart? :o ]]
I hadn't warmed up to this thing even if he was warning me, trying to help me. None of it made sense! Ghosts shouldn't be here! Or, spirits, as it said. I stepped forward when he turned away, fading into nothing.
"Wait! I don't understand!"
Actually, I did understand. He was a ghost, that haunted this house, along with others. And he had helped me, warned me that other spirits 'play games with lives'. It all made sense, but at the same time, it was all lunacy.
And now I was all alone, with only the cold draft of the ghost to keep me company. I shivered, fearful tears pooling in my eyes. If this was all happening, this was usually when I ran out of the house, screaming that there were ghosts. But I would be put in a mental institution if I did that.
Swallowing, I took a step, and turned my back. That ghost that spoke to me could be anywhere now. He could be watching me. All of the spirits could be watching me. I all of a sudden felt paranoia and I ran from the hallway, tripping down the stairs slightly from running so fast, and to the living room where I had slept. The light had broke before right above me, and I didn't have a scratch. It would be impossible - unless something covered me.
"You saved me from the light's glass, didn't you?"
I said loudly, wishing the thing I saw before would come back. Let's say this thing did save me from getting cut open. If he was a ghost, wouldn't he be wanting to hurt me, not help me? First he saved me from the light, and then he tried helping me by putting the boxes away. Why would he care?
He had said something about not getting warned. That he lived here too. Why was everyone talking about the past people that lived here?
I scrambled to my laptop case, unzipping it, and putting it on the kitchen counter, willing it for it to turn on faster. "Come on, come on, come on..." I whispered until it finally came to my wall paper. With shaking fingers, I clicked on the internet button and typed in google. All I had to do was type the address of the home, and articles already showed up. About men falling down stairs, others hanging themselves, some being called mental and lunatics. Kind of like me right now. There were even pictures. I shuddered, backing away, once again feeling that paranoia like I was being watched. I turned my head, looking over my shoulder, to see nothing.
This couldn't be happening. The spirits - they played with those peoples lives? It didn't say it in the articles of course. They mostly said suicide or natural causes. But, putting two and two together with the ghost I just witnessed...
No. I was turning into these people in the article. There were no ghosts! That's impossible! I laughed slightly at myself. I can't believe I fell for it. Maybe one of the boys were doing a prank. I sighed, putting my elbow on the counter, my palm over my forehead wearily.
"Very funny, boys."
I muttered a smile on my face at being so stupid.

[[The attention span of a goldfish is not helpful when roleplaying. o _ o And I got that heart by pressing + holding Alt, pressing 3 on the number pad, and releasing. c:]]
Powra sighed softly. He had to do something, make her leave, before... No, that wouldn't happen for some time yet. They planned to toy with her for a while first. Unfortunate, perhaps, in the sense she would likely go insane, but incredibly lucky for him because it meant he could get her out of there before that did happen. And now she thought it was all down to those handymen of hers. Well, this was going very well.
He stood behind her as she turned the laptop on. It was something he'd gotten used to, but still didn't like much. Computers weren't huge anymore, they were tiny. It was... Strange. Still, he supposed it was a good thing she'd seen all that, but she still didn't appear to care much for it. He was glad she hadn't seen any pictures of when he had died, it had been... Unpleasant. To say the very least.
''Those 'boys' went home hours ago. Cowards, every one of them.'' His silver eyes appeared first, followed quickly by the rest of his body filling in. Still that slightly hazy, translucent texture, though.
''And yes, I prevented the glass from hurting you. I didn't want for it to hurt you, that's all.'' He spoke softly, but there was a slight note of urgency in his voice. She clearly didn't believe he was what he appeared to be, and who could blame her? She was living, after all.
''Please, you must listen to me. These spirits, they don't hesitate. They plan to toy with you for a while, weeks, months... Maybe even years. They want to turn you insane so you either kill yourself, or they can make it look like that. And then you'll end up like this.'' With that, he gestured downwards at himself.
''It's no fun, trust me. What do you think I spend my time doing? I've been here for over thirty years. It's a long time to think about things you wished you'd done.'' Or, more importantly, things you wished you hadn't done. Like getting in that argument with his parents. Inviting his friend over to spend the night. Not understanding what was happening when Dale- aforementioned friend- shoved him over the balcony and began butchering him while he was still semi-conscious.
Yes, there were a lot of things he wished he'd known, a lot of things he'd like to have done. It was far too late for him, though.
Well now. I should... Probably put something intelligent here. At some point. Eventually.

... Screw it. HYE. ♥
