You have been tasked with your first ever haunt! Not that you haven't done haunts before, but this will be the first one you're in charge of!

The other ghosts are not allowed to interfere, but they can provide advice here and there.

Hopefully, you can scare the new tenant out of here and beat the current record of 1 week.

What NAME are you called? Around how OLD are you?

Name: Boo
Age: Just had a heart attack in the apartment upstairs five minutes ago

Blankie, you’re about thirty dog years old and you are so ready to bark at stuff

Afton Montclair, 94 human years .5 ghost years old

Name: Little Goober
Age: One day old in dog years

You are Afton Goober Junior Montclair. The other ghosts think your name is too long, so they just call you BOO.

You are about thirty one day dog years old and you are so ready to bark at stuff!

Haha. You don't really know how you died. But that's okay! You have the afterlife to live even longer.

3+10i (imaginary plane for 'death years')
Your name is Gilgamesh and you died in a freak accident
Your mother developed a spontaneous case of what the street calls "Superman's Stroke", causing her to throw you at superhuman speeds as she spasmed to death. (The guilt has rendered her spirit insane and talking to you throws her into fits.) You landed at the perfect time in a cult ritual, destroying what was left of your baby body in exchange for amazing spiritual superpowers
You also lived in a low-magic world so said superpowers consist of moving a few light things with your mind and appearing to normies. Boring, huh?

You're going to scare the pants off of them! Then you'll have the new record and the bragging rights.

You are currently in the bedroom of the apartment. You have wicked superpowers that allow you to lift a few light objects with your mind and manifest yourself for a few seconds. All super cool powers that no one else has except for ghosts.

What do you do?

Scare the mouse that presumably lives in the mouse hole

Collect Coat Hanger.

Prepare for the tenant’s arrival by bending the coat hanger into a spooky shape!

>>1111453
Yeah like a B! For boo

Time to be a proper ghost dog and pee ectoplasm everywhere.

That mouse is technically the current tenant. Go into the mouse hole and BOO him!

>Collect Coat Hanger

You use your cool superpower to float the coat hanger over to you. It doesn't take much effort since it's very light and you've had some good practice before. The heaviest thing you've been able to lift is a hardcover book.

Great idea! You muster your concentration together, feeling the shape of the hanger through your extrasensory vision, and try to pull it inward with just enough force.

It takes a few seconds, but the metal bends. B hanger acquired!

You float over to the mouse hole to give her a scare. She is the current tenant now that you think about it. Miss Mouse has lived here longer than you have, but the other ghosts don't seem to bother her much. She must be ripe for a haunting.

It doesn't look like she's home, but you're a patient ghost, so you wait!

You back away as she exits her home, her needle spear in hand and a tiny hat on her head.

"What do you want, Boo?"

"YoooOOOOoouuu!"
She definitely weighs less than a book. Float the mouse!

Tell the mouse that you are a ghost of a cat, that will scare it.

"It's my first haunting! I was going to haunt you but your house is too small"

Test out your telekinesis!

Make her table start floating. OOOOoooOOOOooooOOOO, so scary!

As she struggles against your ghostly hold, you continue your scare, wiggling your body dramatically, "IiiiIIi aAmm aAa CAAATTT! MeeeEEooOOWWwww."

She squeaks at you, which you take as a success and suppress the urge to fistpump in triumph. You're a natural.

Miss Mouse eventually finds a sense of gravity, her limbs no longer flailing as she lays back into the air of your hold, her beady eyes staring at you, "Can you put me down?"

She doesn't sound very scared.

"Are you scared?"

"Not really." It's okay, Miss Mouse can lie.

"It's my first haunting! I was going to haunt you but your house is too small."

"It is too small. Thanks."

Miss Mouse sighs, "It is, very very scary."

"Really?"

"Yes, why don't you try it on the human outside?"

"Well, I can't float their table yet. It's too heavy."

She gestures with her tiny paw as you start to juggle her table items in the air, "Do you know what it means to be scary, Boo?"

Of course I do! Being scary is about being unknown. You never know what I’ll do next!

Being scary means being a ghost. There's like tons of underlining psychological stuff encompassing death, the uncanny valley, uncertainty, but that all is moot since you're clearly killing it

It means doing something unexpected, building up a sense of antici...

It means people are surprised when they see you, like a fun prankster

You float over to look into the downstairs section of the apartment. Many boxes are strewn about with random pieces of furniture here and there. No couch yet. Or a bed. Just a few tables, a chair, some empty bookcases, and other miscellaneous objects.

You also spot the new tenant once again. You are unable to leave the apartment, so you weren't able to get a better look at them until now.

The new tenant looks nice. Their clothes are a bit rugged looking, but you don't know what clothes are normal or not normal. They also look young. What are young people scared of again? Taxes?

Quick! How do you scare them?

Young people are scared of rejection. Open their phone and pull up their dating app!

Turn the plush to follow them whenever they're not looking.

Have the plush do a wave when he's turned away so he sees from the corner of his eye.

Haunted dolls are a very popular fear among the young folks.

Rejection! Of course! You're scared of rejection too. It would be one thing for Mapa to get mad at you for failing your haunt... but it will be another if they stop seeing you as a worthy ghost at all.

The thought makes you sad... Wait! Focus!

You float down and gently pull the phone out of the new tenant's back pocket, the rectangle light and easy to grab. They don't seem to notice, whistling to themself a tune you're unfamiliar with.

push all the dust off the ceiling fan and make it swirl around him. maybe even have it form a capering goblin shape, if you can manage that level of control.

You've got to start with a slow burn. Next time they turn around, whisper 'Behind you' in a soft, sensual tone.

Maybe not the fancy swirling just yet, but all the dust falling off the fan at once would certainly be spooky!

hang out and learn this tenant's habits, that you may spookily disrupt them.

As you observe, you learn that the new tenant has an interest in camping. He pitches a worn tent in the bedroom and rolls out a sleeping bag inside with an expertise that only experts have. He takes time cleaning up the space and bringing all the boxes inside, wiping things down and sweeping up all the dust that's collected from the time the apartment's been sitting empty.

You also spot what looks like some puzzle boxes in one of the moving bins and a collection of pinecones that he unpacks. Seeing the pinecones makes you miss nature, you haven't been outside in a long, long, time.

Also! The new tenant is a terrible singer. When he's cleaning, he sings offtune to whatever music he's listening to. It's almost haunting you instead!

While you observe, you slowly regain your energy, but you'll still be a little limited until night comes.

Soon, he stands and wanders over to it. You float over and follow his gaze.

You're not sure what he's looking at at first, it's a busy neighborhood after all! Then, in the opposite building, you see a figure that exited it as they enter the street. The figure looks familiar, like you just saw them! Is it the person on his phone? They looked happy together.

>Go haunt someone else.

No, you can't give up yet! The other ghosts will make fun of you if you fail your mission. You have to haunt this guy out of here.

Besides, the neighbors aren't prime haunting targets. The neighbor to the left is a very nice psychic that carves wooden dolls for you and the other ghosts to play in. You'd feel bad if you bothered her, she's usually really busy with her "many online girlfriends" and "needs her private time."

The neighbor to the right was a prime haunting target, an easily spooked "musclehead gymrat" that ended up getting a cat. Now you guys can't haunt him!

What do you do now?

Possess his laptop and view his search history.

Team up with the cat! Cats love to bother people.

Oh this one's easy
Get the psyker to non-sexually stalk him until he freaks out

When he's not looking add a note to his order, requesting the pizza have pepperoni spelling out "BOO"

>>1111727
Oooh if we can do this, can we put something scary on his computer? Like, a popup that says all his files have been encrypted? Or "CRITICAL ERROR HAS OCCURRED, REFORMATTING C: DRIVE" on boot, that kind of thing?

You could also go for a slow burn of dread, like the monitor's colors going all fucky for a few seconds, then part of the screen freezes and won't change, other graphical glitches like that, before giving him the boot problems...

>>1111727

This 100% this!

When they watch out the window, you watch back as that guy they stared at.

>Team up with the cat!

Even though cats are masters in the art of bothering people, there's one issue with that plan...

You're afraid of them! Cats are one of the only living beings that can touch ghosts and they really like using that to their advantage. Like chasing you! And pawing at you! So scary...

Not a bad plan. She likes some good ol' mischief just as much as the other ghosts. But, she'll probably take some convincing.

You'll have to offer her something in return!

>When they watch out the window, you watch back as that guy they stared at.

Oooo you like this plan! You'll try it out once it's closer to nighttime, when it will be the most effective. The new tenant seems really interested in that person, so maybe it'll really freak him out.

Heheh.

You hop dive into his laptop, feeling the electrical currents run through you like spaghetti in a can. Your understanding of computers is rudimentary enough to know how to manipulate some things, so it's no issue typing things out on a laptop vs a phone.

(You're not one for binary, but you're +1!)

You wait until he's staring back at the window to add a little request for the pizza makers. A special delivery with a pepperoni surprise of BOO please!

Hmm.. You don't know what to make of that. He seems normal! And a romantic.

>put something scary on his computer

Ohohoho that's right, you have to get with the times! What else can be scarier... than a computer error!

As he finishes his purchase and moves to go to a different tab, you start to make the screen glitch, the effect subtle at first then warping and stuttering the screen. His features freeze. Slowly, he starts to tense, shaking his mouse to get the screen to respond until you freeze and stutter that too.

His eyes widen. For the first time, you see real fear. AHAHAHAHA!

Slowly, you make the glitching worse and worse, your own beautiful ghostly visage appearing on the screen at the last moment before you turn the screen completely black.

He doesn't quite scream, but he makes a noise of shock, a "Guhauh?"

As he attempts to turn the laptop back on, you have a message flash: "CRITICAL ERROR HAS OCCURRED REFORMATTING C: DRIVE"

He swiftly presses the off button until the laptop screen dies once again, then shuts it closed.

"I'll.. Go to a repair store tomorrow." He swallows and puts the laptop down on the ground.

You cherish this victory as you start doing donuts in the air. You knew you could do it. Now you just have to squeeze this guy until he pops!

The new tenant is on definitely edge.

Should you take a break or press on? Maybe see if the psychic is around?

This is good for now. Slow burn!

Let’s go say hi to the psychic.

What can we offer the psychic? Maybe to play them in the boardgame of their choice

Short his laptop's power supply (not the battery) then go see the psychic.

Laptop is destroyed but what about his phone? That should be our next target, his technology failing is the thing that scares him.

>>1111919
Wait, he looked for hauntings before picking this apartment? He WANTED to be haunted???

Also, don't actually destroy his laptop. If it's gone then you lose future opportunities to scare him with it!

Maybe he is trying to communicate with a ghost, or maybe he is trying to have a romantic conversation with a ghost. Try to send him a Morse code.

It's a good thing the laptop is only pretend destroyed! It'll be even spookier when he takes it into the shop and it's fine. He saw what he saw...right? Aaaanyways, as for what do, while we wait for the pizza to arrive, chatting up the psychic for a sidequest in exchange for assistance sounds like a decent plan~ It must be fun, pushing that little planchette around~

>Destroy Laptop

You wouldn't do something so mean just yet! The laptop is perfectly fine outside of the ghostly interference, so it will be all the more spookier when he takes it to the shop and it turns out to be fine. That'll be a real head scratcher for him hahaha! And you can have more future opportunities to scare him. Maybe with a creepypasta... Next up, the phone when you figure out how to manipulate it!

>Maybe he is trying to communicate with a ghost, or maybe he is trying to have a romantic conversation with a ghost.
>He WANTED to be haunted???

You feel yourself blush. You're flattered but you don't like him in that way! You want him out of here! If he knew about you beforehand, that would explain why your first tricks didn't work at first, but you can handle a challenge. Mapa warned you about humans that might seek you out and how they're always freaks! So maybe he is a freak.

Or... Maybe he just wants a friend! You can understand that. You like the other ghosts, but a part of you feels like they cannot understand you in the way a true friend can. Maybe... Maybe the new tenant could understand you...

NOT! Anyone that's rude to you is out of the question!

You do like the thought of communicating with him, so you look for the closest light object to tap a morse code signal.

-... --- --- / .. ... / -- . --..-- / .. / .- -- / -... --- --- -.-.--

At the sound, he looks over in mild bewilderment at the pen tapping itself until it falls over. There's a moment of silence. Then, he just stands up and leaves! See what you mean with these kinds of people!

>Ask psychic for help

You shake your head and move to phase through the neighboring wall and into the psychic's bedroom. To your relief, she's home! It looks like she's watching something on her laptop.

A few of the other ghosts are around, possessing dolls and bumping planchettes on a large board like mini bumper cars. There's clothes scattered around and figurines and posters and other knick-knacks decorating the room. The psychic really knows how to make a place feel homey!

When you enter, you try to say hi, though the other ghosts don't pay you any attention. They're really busy playing!

when you float over to the psychic, she glances at you then smiles. It makes you feel almost warm inside... If you could feel temperature! She pauses her animated show and removes her headphones, the blankets all bundled up around her.

"Hi Miss Psychic!"

The psychic speaks in a naturally soft voice, "Hey Boo.. You know you can be more casual with me."

"I don't want to be rude Miss Syven!"

Her brows furrow but she just chuckles, "What's up? How's the haunting?"

"It's hard work! The new tenant is a really rude nut! But I've got him on the ropes." You mime holding your fists up and she laughs.

"You must be working hard."

"I am!"

She crosses an arm around her chest, "Here, you wanna rest on me?"

You can't really "rest" but you can't say no to the psychic either! You shrink yourself down so you can pretend to lay on her chest. In a way, it's a bit comforting.

"You're very nice, Miss Syven. Can I ask you a favor?"

The psychic tilts her head, "Ah.. What kind of favor?"

"I was hoping you could help me with my haunting! I want to scare him so bad that he runs right out of the place and never comes back!" You cycle your legs in a running motion. "Maybe you could follow him around all scary-like?"

"Mmmm... I'm still pretty busy, but I can do something more specific. You'll have to do something for me first."

You nod. "We could play a boardgame?"

"Haha, maybe next time, I actually need something else. I have a.. date coming up.. and one of my earring's went missing. If you can find it, then I'll help you. It looks like a small tooth. I looked all over the place for it and couldn't find it... Not sure where it could've disappeared to."

Ohohoho finding an earring sounds clear enough! How bad could it be to find?

How do you respond?

Check every damn drain in the apartment.

Time for an under the couch adventure

Maybe you could make a new tooth earring?

I wonder if there's a mouse in here too? Maybe they've seen it, if so.

>>1112187
But like, innocently. It’s just the first place that comes to mind, since that’s where we’re laying. We don’t really get the implications cuz we’re a ghost. She might get flustered, but that’s for her to deal with.

What if the person that she will go on a date is the same person that we are trying to scare! As for the earrings maybe she lost it in her beautiful and long hair.

Sidequest Accepted: Find Earring

You stand and do a mini salute, "I'll find that earring even if it's the last thing I do!"

The psychic smiles. "Thanks Boo."

>Check boobs

Well, you're already here! You do a visual inspection then dive to check if it could've gotten stuck. You feel like if you had a chest this big you'd have stuff get lost there too. And it never hurts to be thorough!

After your dive, you find yourself lost in an expanse of soft. At least, it probably is soft!

Sadly, you don't find the earring. And once you emerge, you see that the psychic is looking at you, blushing heavily. Oh no, did you do something wrong?

You stare. "Did I do something wrong?"

She half-coughs. "N-no. It's fine... But you should ask first before you search someone."

Oh no! You were getting a bit ahead of yourself.

You bow respectfully, "Can I check your beautiful and long hair?"

With permission, you dive into her hair. You feel like an explorer in a vast jungle, parting the curtain of keratin aside in an endless void.

Nothing here!

You bid the psychic a temporary farewell before blasting off to her living room. The couch is the next best place to go! At least according to TV hahaha.

You sweep through the floor underneath, passing through dust bunnies and other random trash bits as you go. When you can't find it there, you float up through the couch to inspect the cushions. Besides some loose change, there's no dice!

>Consult house mouse

You're pretty darn sure that there's another mouse that lives here too. You float through the rooms and find his home hole in the supply closet. Thankfully, he's a real helpful guy! He tells you that he may have seen it down south and gives you directions. You nod along amazed at his wisdom.

It's not until after you part ways that you realize, you don't really know what he was talking about! Hahaha!

Sewer adventure time!

You dive down the drain, unimpeded by what living people would call stink or water or filth. Your ghostly form remains pristine as you root through the piping and search for the earring.

It feels like going through a waterslide, as you continue to descend and descend.

Finally, the pipe spits you out and you find yourself in some type of corridor. A sewer rat's secret lair, perhaps?

There are slight cavities in the metal walls that allow the sewer rat to rest and hide things. You spy a shelf above their sleeping form of what looks like lost trinkets.

You approach. The sewer rat awakens to your presence.

You clear your throat and try to make a good impression, "HELLO! IT'S NICE TO MEET YOU. HAVE YOU SEEN AN EARRING THAT LOOKS LIKE A HUMAN'S TOOTH AROUND HERE?"

Heh. Way to show your business acumen.

They cough, "W-What?"

"HELLO! IT'S NICE TO--"

The sewer rat gestures, "No, no, I got that. I. You don't have to yell." They seem to look down, suddenly shy. "Um... Sorry... I'm kind of.. depressed."

You smile. "Hello, depressed."

"That's not... Anyway. I think I have seen it. I could... Maybe point you in the right direction."

You float closer, excited, "Really? Where is it?"

They hold their paws up in front of you. "Hold on, hold on. I'll. I'll tell you... But, um... Only if you tell me a really good joke."

A really good joke? You've got plenty.

What's the difference between a rat and a mouse?

A rat doesn't work with my computer!

"How many rats does it take to chew through the heart of a progressive politician? I don't know because I've never seen one in my life!"
(P.S. the joke can be interpreted as 'the lack of a heart', but it's something else.)

Knock knock
who's there?
rodent
rodent who?
Rodent you like to know

Ghost jokes!
What kind of pants do ghosts wear? Boo jeans.
How do ghosts wash their hair? With sham-boo.
What's a ghost's favorite bedtime story? Little Boo Peep.
Where did the ghost go on vacation? The Boo-hamas.

Why did the chicken cross the road?
To get to the KFC!

"Why did the cat cross the road?"
"Who cares, run!"

"Why did the bird cross the road?"
"Because it was glued to the cat."

Or you could do the duck-grapes joke but have a mouse ask for cheese and get threatened with an imaginary cat.

"Nothing makes cents!" you sing-song. "Except for a penny press!"

You twist your body around a little more as you get closer, "Will you tell me where it is now?"

"Oh. Um..." Mister Depressed starts at you, tail moving back and forth, "It's somewhere hard to reach."

"It sure is!" You say in agreement. "But where?"

Mister Depressed tilts their head down. They seem even shyer, "You'll get it. If you get me to laugh more."

Before Mister Depressed can react, you stretch your ghostly wisps to tickle them. You're not fully materialized, so it feels more like a realllyyyy weird breeze. They still see your limbs trying to tickle them as you add in some OooOoooOoo's for emphasis. They look taken aback, then they fold over and laugh.

You double--No! Triple your efforts! Their fur sways here and there as you tickle with all your might.

A dam breaks! Mister Depressed Rat starts to guffaw. Their laughs echo within the sewer pipes. You laugh along too, delighted at their joy. Moments like this are what you're dead for, you think.

"HaaHAhahhaAHAHhahaAHha hAH--I-- I CaN't! HahAHa--" they suddenly gasp and cough.

You continue to laugh along. Mister Depressed Rat starts to hack and laugh, his body contorting with the joy you've given them. They're so happy! So joyful! They claw at their throat, struggling to get the laughter out.

Mister Depressed wobbles on their paws, still coughing and laughing as you float the earring up in the air. "Ah.. Haha... You got me."

"It was in you all along?" You ask.

They nod. "Yeah... You could say I got desperate. Figured it was big enough."

That's true! What an odd thing to do indeed... Maybe living beings are just quirky like that sometimes.

You stretch over towards Mister Depressed, "Thanks for helping me! What did you need it for? Maybe I can help with that?"

"Oh... I guess.." Their tail flickers anxiously. "I've just been having a hard time with life, you know? I've been tired... Real tired. And I was hungry. Hungry by choice... But I didn't want to feel hungry."

You tilt your head. You try to understand how those two things don't contradict. The intricacies of life. "You wanted to be hungry?"

Mister Depressed nods. "Yeah.. So I found something big and special. I, uh, I wanted something special inside me before I slept. I figured, if I ate it, maybe I could be special... Feel special. Yeah, it's funny talking about it out loud. Something childish like that."

You shake your head, "I'd want to feel special too! If eating a tooth was all it took, I'd eat a whole mouthful!"

"You're really nice." They chuckle. "Looking at you, a ghost, so happy, I want to feel that too... Do you think I could be happy?"

"Of course! I can come back after this and help you be happy again!"

Why wouldn't you want Mister Depressed to be happy? It's not a problem, since you don't have to scare them like the weirdo upstairs.

"Help me be happy like you." Mister Depressed Rat looks at you with big firm eyes.

You shouldn't kill yourself, you should make the make friends and construct a mouse utopia.

Being a ghost is super fun, but there are things you can't do anymore. Like eating and sleeping.
Mr rat should think about what he would like to do before taking such a big step.

"What's.. Um.. Do you know how you? You know?"

You squint as you try to decipher their riddle. How you got down here? The pipes. How you knew they were there? Coincidence! Then... A lightbulb forms above you. Metaphorically, of course. You can't go into the light yet.

"Oh! How I died? Not really. I don't remember much." Every time you try to remember, you start to get a headache and you feel really tired.

Is getting bashed in a car accident really that traumatic?

Shopping cart, margarita mix and a really hot paramedic.

Being a dog, burying a bone, not calling 811 before you dug

The last thing you remember is actually not super helpful. You really just rember the taste of strawberry ice cream. Not how you looked, or where you were, just that flavor is all you’ve got to go off of, as to what your life was like

Last thing you remembered was being a rapping dog on the Titanic and the rest is a blur.

You rack your ghost brain for any semblance of a memory. It would've been so cool if you were a rapping dog with a bone that drove a shopping cart into a paramedic on the Titanic. Then promptly got hit by someone's convertible that drove off a nearby iceberg.

Boooooo.. And a part of you does want to say that! But you also don't want to be dishonest to your newly acquired friend. You don't have many friends to throw around. But maybe you can juggle them later!

"It's not that big. I just remember the taste of strawberry ice cream and being outside." You squint and try to form the vague memory into something that makes sense. But it feels like a dream. The more you think, the less you can make sense of it. "I miss ice cream. And being outside."

"Oh." They seem deep in thought. "I haven't had ice cream much."

"I remember that it was really good! You should have some."

"I'll try."

When you both finally emerge from the sink drain, the sudden light causes Mister Depressed Rat For Now to squint.

"I can't remember the last time I wasn't in the pipes." They say.

You stare at them in disbelief. "How do you know what time it is?"

"I don't." They glance down at themself. "Cheezits.. I'm dirty. You think the human will still like me?"

"Of course!"

"Well... Should I still do this? I'm starting to think that maybe this was a bad idea.. I don't want her to get mad at me since I had her stuff."

"Why would she get mad at you? Did you steal it?" You ask.

"No... I took it."

"Then that's different!" Stealing and taking are just sliiiiightly off from the other after all.

"Oh.. Then.. What should I say?" They seem to shuffle nervously. "... Can the human even understand me? What if she can't and she starts screaming?"

Vocalizations are hard for humans to understand. So words are probably a no go. What they do understand is music, so let’s see about remembering the friendliest music you ever heard…

How about squeaking the theme from Friends? And clapping along?

First off you didn't take it, you found it. Finders keepers means you were within your rights to keep it.
Second she hangs out with ghosts, which are so scary. She definitely won't be afraid of a little rat.
Third She doesn't need to understand what you say, squeaks are cute.
Just offer it up to her and she'll get what you mean

Try to present yourself as a cute little rat and she will adopt you as her pet.

"Psh! She hangs out with us ghosts, and we're suuuper scary. She won't find you scary at all." You shake your head. "Besides, she might not understand you, but humans can understand the power of music!"

".... The power of music?"

"Yeah! And humans love squeaking. We can squeak together and clap along to the Friends song."

"Right."

"Right! Friends, friends, friends." You singsong and clap. "Like that."

They seem to practice muttering it to themself before nodding. "Okay."

"Great! If she really likes it, maybe she'll adopt you too."

Mister Depressed seems to get embarrassed at the suggestion. They squirm and mutter. "Someone's pet huh..."

Okay!

You both scamper down, past the bathroom, and back to the bedroom area. It's quieted down now that it's hitting later in the day. Most all the other ghosts have departed to haunt other areas of the complex and to get their fill of the night's haunts.

When you enter, Syven notices immediately, smiling and putting down her phone. She's partially dressed. Must be getting ready for her date!

Excitedly, she crouches down to greet you both.

"Hi Boo. Who do you have here?"

Mister Depressed seems to freeze at the sight of her. You nudge them encouragingly then give a wink.

"We have a present for you!"

"Oh?"

You start to clap a tune, squeak singing as Mister Depressed joins along. They seem to realize their hands are preoccupied, moving to wave the tooth earring instead of clapping. You clap louder for the both of you.

"SQUEEeEee SQUEEAAK ssquee squeeak SQUeeAaAak!"

You don't really know when to stop and neither do they! You didn't talk about that part!

Your singing is eventually interrupted by Syven's giggling, growing louder and louder, until she's fully laughing.

"Okay, okay. That was great. Thank you both." She continues laughing then moves to hold two fingers out for them to drop the tooth onto. Mister Depressed complies.

She holds it up as she examines it closely, "Huh. Looks cooler than I remember."

Syven leaves for a moment to finish getting ready. In the meantime, you reconvene with Mister Depressed on your success. They still seem unsure, but they're smiling as they talk. Maybe they do want to be a pet rat after all?

When Syven returns, now fully dressed, she shows off the earrings. "Looking good, huh? Anyway, you earned that favor, Boo. What do you want me to do?"

BOO-YAH!

----

Conditions for the Favor:
- Syven can only act as a support to the main scare plan. Boo will need to be the main actor.
- Syven can only act once.
- Syven will not physically harm the target.

Time to enact our scare plan on the new tenant! He showed nervousness at his laptop not working… perhaps we could get Goth Psychic to help read his mind and see/hear why he is being so rude?

Sure, Syven can't hurt the guy physically but that doesn't mean she can't hurt him in a mental way. She can be the one who tells him the spooky story and that can be our opportunity to strike!

She could be a potential distraction while we try to figure out how a phone works! If he freaked out when you haunted the laptop, haunting the phone would REALLY scare him. We just need an opportune moment to learn. Wait for a moment where he has it charging, then have Syven occupy him with some polite neighbor chatter! Then, while he’s distracted, we try and figure out what a phone is!

She should introduce herself like friendly neighbor. And use the opportunity to both probe him for his fears and plant the seeds of how there's something very wrong about his apartment.

You can use the favor for Syven to be our ghost mediator, we can have a proper introduction, set a time for a haunting, if he suffers from allergies and what we can do with our target during our off hovers.

Awww yessss it's all coming together in your mind's eye.

While Syven introduces herself as a friendly neighbor, she can use her Totally Legit Psychic Skills to gather more information and probe his mind more intimately. Find out his fears and what keeps him up at night. Maybe tell him a spooky story to get the mood going! While she does so, you'll use that time to figure out what that darn phone does and how to use it.

Your target has a fear around technology, so you just have to get technological! BOO-LOGICAL!

And once that's all squared away, you can have a proper ghost-duction, and better discuss haunting etiquette. He can learn the proper manners and you can both plan accordingly how the scare should be done. You've done all this work to get to know him after all, he should do the same for you!

You convey your plan to Syven, who gives you a thumbs up of approval.

"I have a couple ideas on what I'll say. Like that old couple that fell down the stairs a few weeks ago... Sad they died from a mutual heart attack."

You nod solemnly, "Yeah, too bad they didn't become ghosts."

You don't fully know the criteria of what makes someone a ghost or not, but it doesn't always happen when someone dies. You'd know, this apartment complex has deaths every year!

Syven moves to put her bag on, "We can start the plan tomorrow? I won't be back until tomorrow morning. Give yourself some time to rest, you're going in and out."

You blink and glance at your ghostly form. You're turning a bit toooo off-shell-egg-white. "Okay! Thanks Miss Syven!"

Syven giggles at you and gives you a little pat on the head. She then looks down at your new rat friend and brushes a finger down their fur, "I'll give you a bath later."

Mister Depressed seems to wiggle shyly at the gesture. Nice! Everything's going well.

As she exits, you regard your next course of action.

I wanna see the results of the “Boo!” Pizza we set up! Our side quest hopefully took the exact amount of time for the pizza to arrive outside! Once we see the confusion, we’ll have finished a day’s work and can rest, in preparation for phone haunting tomorrow!

No now it is not the time for rest, now you need to go to the ghost gym and start working on improving your ghost muscles. Have to develop some impressive physique, and maybe even gain ghost nano-machines.

>Deaths every year isn't normal

You wouldn't really know what's normal or not! The complex houses around a hundred people, from your rough estimation, and all of varying ages but usually skewing to young adults. Most die of tragic occurrences, though always within the complex. Sometimes, it's because they get too scared from a haunt and die from fright.

But everyone tries to avoid those! It's always suuuper awkward if someone comes back as a ghost. There's a lot of fights that start that way that Mapa has to resolve.

>Check Target
>See if Pizza worked

OH YES!! Let's see the spoils of your hard won labor! You kindly say goodbye to your friends, adding that you will come back to introduce your new rat friend to the other rodents as well. The building blocks of Rodentopia starts with you.

You phase through the wall and down into the first floor, where the new tenant has conveniently finished paying and picking up their pizza. He didn't even open it yet! Score!

You quickly approach as he opens the pizza and rub your ghostly limbs in anticipation.

Once the decadent pizza box-top has risen high enough, the new tenant stares down at his presumable spoils, blinks, rubs his eyes, then looks again. His mouth opens in palpable confusion then looks over his shoulder, presumably to you. You smile wide and giggle to yourself, kicking your feet.

That's right! Another one for BOO!

Once he looks over and sees nothing behind him, he gazes back down at the pizza box. The new tenant's expression goes blank... And the distraught look disappears back into that smarmy smile...

"Huh. The pizza people must be pranking me. Real funny." He says and shakes his head.

BOOO!! BOOOO!! AND NOT THE GOOD KIND!

The new tenant chuckles, snatching the humor that was meant to be for your ghoulish enjoyment!

What a fiend.

He starts to head upstairs. You know you should get some rest, but you're peeved enough to follow him up and curse him for his lack of manners once again.

...... That's a lot of pictures.

So is this the, it is the one thing you can't replace the room? Well call the police and get this guy arrested, or at least inspected.

perfect, he's a photographer. Ghosts showing up in photos is classic spook

Is he in all of these pictures with the woman? Like, does it look like all these pictures were taken with her permission, or does it look like some were taken in secret? It's kinda creepy but not outright stalking if he knows the girl (or is her current boyfriend) and just, like, loves her a lot but uses the wall instead of a photo album.

>>1116046
Oh hmm one of them is torn, like it was her and someone else that the guy doesn't like.
Could be he loves her but she loves someone else...

Ooooh! Illusioning all these to be blank could be a real scare! These are clearly important to him! We’ll keep that in our back pocket. I think it’s time to rest for tomorrow now though~

Haunt the photos make them talk to him. That will freak out this freak.

>>1116085
Even if we weren’t low on spirit energy, I feel like we should get more data on what to have the photos say for maximum spooky effectiveness. At the very least they should say his name, which we DO NOT KNOW actually. We should make sure that’s intel Syven is gathering! (He’ll probably introduce himself naturally, but as a ghost it’d be cute to ask Syven to add it to the list regardless, since we’re not as familiar with human customs)

>>1116085
No, he might like that! Don’t do that!

Oh right, after getting a little more info on the photos, go rest.

Unless you count the way that the new tenant is absolutely murdering that pizza. Completely in their own world as they scroll on their phone.

You try to decipher what is being shown on the small screen, but he scrolls too quickly for you to read. As if he's looking for something specific.

>Investigate photos

You put your detective cap on and saunter over to the photo wall to ponder their significance. The subject of each one is constant; a smaller, almost nerdy, human, that matches the one you saw on his lockscreen previously. The subject seems to be aware of the photographer in the majority of the photos, their gaze towards the camera, except in more scenic pictures.

A few of them are torn. A handful have people(?) completely blacked out in marker.

Here is what you gather:
- Seems like a romantic photo album!
- All the photos are of this subject. There are no other people visible except the new tenant.
- Most of the photos look worn/yellowed. The newest ones seem to be torn or vandalized.
- Some photos look to be taken at a far distance.
- The subject... looks a lot like the guy you saw across the street!

Perhaps there's a romantic tryst going on between the two? How juicy! How interesting!

If you didn't dislike the new tenant, you may be rooting for them!

>Illusion photos

Manipulating photos is not your expertise, but it's good to practice anyway! If you were to make them all blank, it would take a significant amount of energy. If you were to try and have them speak, you could probably do one at a time. Otherwise, the least amount of energy would be spent in making yourself show up in them.

As practice, you muster the last of your strength to possess the photo, your ghostly visage taking shape where the subject once was. Their spectacles appear too to match of course. You feel a sense of joy that was likely captured in the moment. It feels nice!

Your understanding of photos has increased! You'll be able to appear and make the photo speak.

Though it would definitely help if you knew how the subject sounded.

DAY 2: BEGIN.

You wake with the day. You feel BOO-FRESHED and ready to get your haunt on!

Syven has not yet returned, so you have some time before you can put your plan in motion and let her know of all the new information you'll need her to gather, like a name.

At the moment, you are in the back hallway area. It connects the surrounding apartments together as they all have backdoors. It's a bit of a maze, but you're used to navigating it.

The back hallway can also be used to access the garage, the front office, the utility closets, and the storage closet Mapa resides in.

Where would you like to go?

>>1116352
Ah, that's a guy. So, looks like ex-boyfriend, or former friend, but they split up and our target has resorted to stalking. This kinda seems like something we should tell the psychic. Even if our GHOST persona doesn't understand romance, we could at least mention the room full of photos as a potential route for a scare.

How far away from the building can we go? The guy in the photos is nearby, so it'd be useful to spy on them for a bit to learn about them and thus get better context for photo haunting.

>>1116356
Ah, if it's only these locations... Wait, who is Mapa exactly? Let's go say hi, check the storage closet.

the front office probably has tenant records to spy on

>>1116359
I like these ideas

Snooping through front office sounds like a good idea, then we can go say hi to Mapa~

Why does the tip feel more like a threat, yeah the ghost can't be hurt but we have living friends. As for the destination just follow your heart.

You can't leave the apartment complex. The boundaries end where the complex meets the sidewalk or sometimes the walls of certain buildings. You do get access to a few patches of "outside" where there's some foliage, but nothing compared to the REAL outside.

Mapa gives you a warm pat on the head. You beam at the affection.

" "

"It's going well! The new guy's a tough nut, but I'm working him down." You mime raising your fists in a boxing stance proudly.

" "

"Mmm I dunno. I think maybe he knows I'm there and just ignores me! So rude!"

" "

"Acting strange? Besides being rude?"

Listen, I don't think we should see this guy as harmless. To me, he seems like a deeply concerning individual and someone up to no good.

The guy doesn’t react to the normal stuff, only young people malaise!

He also looks out the window weirdly! Gives off weird vibes.

Huh, seems we can't hear or understand Mapa. Could you recount what he/she/they told you, or translate?

Also got some questions on ghost lore!

1) Why are hauntings so important that they have supervisors and assignments?
2) Do all ghosts manifest by default in the Egyptian Medjed shape (bell-shaped, sheet-covered entity with eyes and legs) like you do, or is that a matter of personal preference, experience or heirarchy?
3) Is ectoplasm a thing?

As for what to mention to Mapa, say that you
suspect them being aware of your haunts but seem ti pretend they're something else or make up excuses for them. Haunt targets can't see you normally, right? They're not a medium or similar?

Also that they have a fixation on a specific human with hundreds of photos, in case that means you have to involve said human in a haunt if they ever come over (alive or otherwise).

Also worth asking what happens if you do your job a little too well (death by fright or accident), is that a failed assignment or a success?

its like he's looking for something outside, what a weirdo

>acting weirdly
He's got a room full of pictures of someone that they keep staring at out the window.

Describe the person they have pictures of to Mapa. Maybe she knows more about them that could be useful for spooking.

It also might help to know if the current target has any ghost friends in the complex or outside of it. He might be aware of ghosts from a different haunting and is mistaking you for a different boo.

Or maybe they're a werewolf, and as we all know, good boys can detect ghosts and similar entities.

A brand new day and prefer for a booo job. So find somebody to get your present of surprise. It might scare them initially but when they recover form it they will feel stronger.

Prejudiced! Just cuz someone looks spooky doesn’t mean they aren’t nice! Boo looks SUPER spooky, and they’re a real sweetie! Well, when they’re not haunting I mean.

WEIRD. You can understand Mapa just fine. They've only been asking about your assignment, nothing too big just yet.

>1) Why are hauntings so important that they have supervisors and assignments?

Mapa said it's important for ghostly enrichment to have haunts. A bored ghost is a tragic ghost! Also something about birthing two eggs at once by keeping people safe. Something something.

>2) Do all ghosts manifest by default in the Egyptian Medjed shape (bell-shaped, sheet-covered entity with eyes and legs) like you do, or is that a matter of personal preference, experience or heirarchy?

Egyptian Medjed sounds awesome... Nah, this is your ghostly uniform of course. It's important to wear it to keep everyone on an equal playing field. Mapa didn't raise a cheater.

>3) Is ectoplasm a thing?

If you spit, cry, or get juiced you'll make ectoplasm!

>what happens if you do your job a little too well (death by fright or accident), is that a failed assignment or a success?

A failure!! No ones supposed to die! Like you said before, everyone tries to avoid those because then you get another suuuper angry ghost and that's when a fight can start. There's nothing more frightening than another ghost attacking you. Well, cats are number one actually.

Hm. He hasn't done anything real bad though?

"He doesn't react to the normal scary stuff! Is that the young people mayonnaise?"

Mapa chuckles at you. You don't know what you said that was funny but it makes you feel good.

"Hmm, he also looks out the window weirdly! Like, like, he's looking at something!"

" "

"Oh, that's what windows are normally for?" Boo thinks hard. "He's not just looking out the window... He's looking at someone important to him! A guy with glasses. He has pictures of the glasses guy too. Lots of 'em. That means he's someone important, right?"

There's a long pause.

" "

Mapa seems to agree.

" "

"Oh, I shouldn't worry about it? Okay. Yay!"

Mapa's other hand crawls out of the door, presenting you with a shard from a mirror. Ah, you know this. This is one of Mapa's tests.

Do you accept Mapa's assistance?

Heck yeah gimme the test, test is best.

yes, probably fun right?

Sure, accept, and I have to apologize for accidentally implying that you, Mapa, are untrustworthy. You are cool, I was speaking about the human.

We will do the test but only if we get to give one to Mapa as well.

"Heck yeah! A test sounds fun..." You gesture dramatically. "But on one condition!"

Mapa sizzles in anticipation.

"I get to give you a test too. Boo style."

They stay silent, taking your proposal quite seriously, their limbs roiling along the space of the cracked open door. You do wonder how big Mapa is, since you've never seen them come out of the storage closet. Hmm it must be cramped in there!

Mapa eventually gives you a thumbs. Yessss.

You accept the MIRROR SHARD. A hand-sized piece from an old tenant's bathroom mirror.

For a moment, you inspect your warped and handsomely beautiful reflection as you rotate it in the air.

For the test, Mapa asks you if you know what it does. Pshhhh. Of course you know.

It can.....

Show a human's fears to a ghost. They'll appear in the reflection as sort of illusions. The more abstract fears can be hard to figure out though.

It lets us spy on things that happen outside the building! That way we can do more digging on how to effectively haunt him without leaving the apartment complex. Cuz we can’t.

It lets you see behind corners and look at yourself!

But also, it shows a persons surface thoughts as Edgar Alan Poe-style writing.

>>1130103
Well, that raises a few more questions.

A) How on Earth does a ghost get 'juiced'?
B) Why are cats the scariest thing to ghosts?

>>1130146
Creates a temporary copy of yourself, allowing you to pull off more elaborate hauntings that would need more than one ghost effect active.

For example, the copy could knock ominously on a door in another room while you're busy whispering in someones ear.

>>1130146
It lets you glimpse into an 'opposite' dimension - its like our current world, but things are opposite in some way - e.g. a coin being flipped shows it landing on the other side, a cat looks like a dog, etc.

>>1130146
Shows a brief glimpse into a possible future of - usually one minute ahead. This future can be altered if you or other supernatural events intervene.

Got a potential haunt tactic! What makes many people scared is the thought of a stranger being present in a place they assume safe from intrusion. Knock on doors or make footsteps when our target is alone, from rooms that they assume to be empty (e.g. a bathroom).

Tapping peoples shoulder when they're completely alone is also a good way to unnerve them.

If you put it under the pillow of a sleeping human, it gives you the ability to enter the mind of that sleeping person.

That piece of mirror you can attach to any mirror gives you the ability to make illusions appear in the attached mirror. But the only people who can see the illusions are really tired ones.

The mirror shard lets you see the most handsome and spookiest ghost in the room. :3

Heehee stoooop, you're the most handsome and spookiest ghost in the room!

>A) How on Earth does a ghost get 'juiced'?

Sometimes during ghost fights there's some juicing... Or if you get captured by ghost hunters, then they'll turn you into juice and sell you at the grocery store. Real scary stuff.

>B) Why are cats the scariest thing to ghosts?

They're creepy! Not only can they see you and knock you around, they clearly have malicious intent... Just thinking about one spotting you makes you shiver. You don't understand how living people keep them around.

Back to the test, you think about all the possibilities. An illusory aid? A fear finder? A glimpse into the outside world? A peep into the future?!

You mime putting on glasses and gesture academically, "If you put it under the pillow of a sleeping person, it gives you the ability to enter the mind of that sleeping person."

There's silence. You hold your pose. You must be confident!

BOO-YAH!

MIRROR SHARD officially acquired. Though you'll have to wait until the end of the day to use it. Or maybe you'll get lucky and find someone napping.

Now, it's time to really squeeze your brain. Since you've passed the test, you've got to dish one out too.

What's a good test for Mapa? A knowledge test? A skill test? A creepy spooky scare test?

A creepy spooky scare test, have to stay on brand. As for their test, let us see their spooky powers. What they can do, if they can scare people, how do they do it, and other spooky, ajesent demonstrations, and we will score them on their thenick, creativity, and ingenuity.

How well does mapa know the apartment? quiz on Who's the easiest human to spook, who's the hardest, and which ghosts are the scariest.

Knowledge test. Who's on the cover of this months 'supernatural supermodels' magazine.

Skill/spook test: Show us your best jumpscare. Terrify US. Cats not allowed.

Skill test: Karaoke / singing / rapping.

Or maybe just 'best ghost-party trick'.

Knowledge test: What is the standard safety procedure when faced with a cat.

Skill test 1 Mapa vs 100 cats. Mapa has to pet them all while all cats have to show why ghost fear them.

Skill test! Mapa should do a flip!

Knowledge Test: Name every variety of 'employed' ghost or spectral entity and their job/heirarchy (e.g. wraith, poltergeist, banshee, dullahan, phantom, shade, yuki-onna..).

>Knowledge Test

You ask Mapa for a knowledge test! Name every ghost and their job/hierarchy!

Mapa proceeds to give you a run down of every known ghost variety in the region. All of them are ghosts, but not every ghost is the same. Like squares and cubes.

Poltergeists (That's you!) - An all-rounder in terms of capabilities. Usually, poltergeists have telekinetic powers and are generally incorporeal unless you try really hard. A good ghost. Best for standard haunts.

Phantoms - They're ghosts that think they're still human. Or ghosts in denial if you want to be ruude. Generally, they're super angsty and love to sing. Not much in terms of power, but they're real good at being mistaken as living people. Not that good for haunts.

Wraiths - They have the same powers as poltergeists but on drugs. They also feed on negative emotions and they're pretty territorial. Mapa doesn't like them much. Best for solo-haunt-spaces of intermediate to advanced levels.

Hungry Ghosts - They're hungry and they'll eat anything. Not great for planned haunts. Good for potluck parties.

Vengeances - Very powerful ghosts. Also, super angry. Very mean, very bad. Mapa's told you to stay away from them. Easily the scariest ones. Legendary haunt capabilities for all haunt levels.

Shades - They're more like shards of souls. Kinda just there. They don't respond much to anything. Bad for haunts.

Headless Ghosts - These ghosts are awesome! Looks cool, has steeds sometimes, great messengers. The ghost mailmen. Retired haunters, but awesome for all haunts if you can convince them.

Screamers - One trick ponies. Great for chasing people and loud noises. Good for all haunt levels (in teams).

No surprise Mapa is so knowledge! You also ask Mapa what kind of ghost they are. They say they're like an advanced version of you. Because they're so strong, they can be everyone's Caretaker, which is a special ghost role.

Hmmm.....

"Who's on the cover of this months 'supernatural supermodels' magazine?" You ask as a tricky question.

" "

Gah! Of course!

You take your time evaluating all of Mapa's answer, feeling the silence so they can get a sweat in.

With a drum roll, you announce, "Boo-plus! You passed!"

Mapa seems to be laugh and the door rattles with them.

"Sooo, what do you want as a reward, Mapa?"

" "

Wah. No reward needed?

"But you have to have something." You pout.

Mapa insists that they don't need anything.

Hmph! Like you'll take that!

"Alright Mapa, now I gotta do it."

You do your extra special ghostly flip and strike a pose.

Mapa claps and cheers. Heh. Gottem.

" "

Ah! Right! Back to haunting. You thank Mapa for the magic-mirror-sleep-shard-reward and head to the front office to proceed with your snooping.

You float down and enter the office through the front door. Nice, the apartment manager is here. Sleeping at his desk. No one else seems to be around.

What do?!

SnooPING AS usual, eh?

Take the hat and hang it on the computer!

write "boo" on a little piece of paper and stick it in his hat brim. Like reporters do with "Press" but spooky.

and then snoop

See if you can find any files on your roommate/victim/target.

Try to possess the chair in order to make the person fall. Sleeping on a table is not good for your back. We are professionals, our hunting is meant to bring excitement to the lives of humans, and if we can stop somebody from getting harmed, that is a plus.

Humans are terrified of things going wrong or spooky with their technology. Make the computer screen show something like 'All drives successfully formatted. The computer will reset automatically, followed by jumpscare and returning to normal.'

Does the keyboard they've planted their head on count as a 'pillow'? Could put the mirror shard under it and give that noggin' a peek.

Subtly rearrange some of the smaller furniture/decorative items from where they should be Just enough to make them doubt their memory. And lock the door from the inside (but leave a key so they can exit) so they can't use the 'oh I got pranked by coworkers' excuse.
