Who: Danny and Anyone
Where: Gym Car
When: Jelly 29
What: Just hanging out practicing your ghost powers. As you do.



There were a lot of things Danny liked about his life here on the train. No ghosts to fight, no ghost hunters hunting him, no classes to worry about failing because he was too busy fighting ghosts and avoiding hunters....

The lack of space wasn't one of them. Flying was one of his favorite things about his powers, and there really wasn't anywhere here that he could push himself into any kind of speed. It really sucked on the days he was feeling a little restless.

Which may explain why he was currently flying laps around the ceiling of the gym car. Upside down.

"Try their life's work. They worked on the thing for twenty years."

Danny had a lot of conflicting feelings about the portal. On the one hand it was without a doubt his parents proudest accomplishment.It was a gateway to a dimension that he had slowly started to consider a kind of second home.

But it had also technically killed him. And definitely changed what life he had left.

"Huh."

This is getting increasingly awkward, given she already knows his parents are ghost hunters, but doesn't want to jump into what had previously proven an extremely weighty topic.

"So did they make it with science? Magic?"

A fair question to ask in this place.

[schrodingersghost]

"Close. They're ghost scientists. I'm pretty sure magic isn't a thing in my world. Unless you count ghost magic."

[wizard_redfive]

"Are ghosts magical? Last I heard they were more like the land remembering past events."

Some would argue that is one and the same. But wizardry blurs the lines between the natural and the mystical.

[schrodingersghost]

"Ghosts aren't magic, but there are magic ghosts? I know a genie ghost, and there are weird ghost artifacts that do things like turn people into dragons. There's even a whole mythology realm."

And yes, he was aware of how little sense that made.

Dairine doesn't seem that weirded out by it.

"Huh. I guess I haven't had that much experience with ghosts. I didn't stick around Ireland for very long."

Perhaps if she hadn't been so busy (or trying to keep her trips hush-hush from her parents), she could have seen the ghosts with Nita.

[schrodingersghost]

"What does Ireland have to do with anything?"

[wizard_redfive]

"The land in Ireland has a good memory. A bit too good. Between that and its turbulent history, ghosts are fairly common there."

"But I wasn't there long enough to see any."

[schrodingersghost]

Danny sighs.

"I guess I can expect one of the random portals to lead there some day then."
