So I get we got plenty of urgent business to take care of what with...well, we live on the moon, bombs, wars, yadda yadda, but indulge me for a bit.
Everyone keeps talkin' about Halloween, yeah? An' it's about ghosts an' the departed...
So for Ghosts, those currently present that is, would this be like a second birthday? Y'know, as in gifts an' the like? Cause I could stand behind somethin' like that a hundred percent.
I'm in 155 if anyone's feelin' generous.
[As always he's just posting to see if he can't rustle a few jimmies down the line. Treating urgency lightly usually does the trick in his experience.]

I mean-- how, anyway? We're stuck on the moon and everything right now there's not a whole lot of options.

... ... O-oh.
Was I supposed to laugh at that?
no subject
But the best thing about smiling all the time is even if you make a legitimate joke and don't get the reaction you want, you can play it off as totally serious.]
No, I'm deadly serious.
The more vicious ghosts eat people, kid. Don't go pissin' 'em off.
no subject
I am incredibly careful about that sort of thing. Seriously!
Do you have experience with them or something?
no subject
The nasty ones, anyway. Sent 'em right off to hell.
no subject
Like, the ones that appear when people are about to die and you swing a scythe and take their souls away!?
no subject
The rest's pretty spot on though, kid!
no subject
There are more of you!?
no subject
Hundreds!
no subject
Do you guys work internationally?
no subject
Why all the questions?
[It could just be curiosity, but call him curious about his curiousity.]
no subject
... I'm curious, actually.
no subject
Thinkin' it over, we got 13 divisions an' at least twenty formally ranked members in each, so that's at least 260 of us. But we got some unseated ones I can't account for, so it could be much higher even still.
Though my division never did no international work, I'm sure someone keeps an eye on all the rest. We send down some unseated folk to stay in the human world for a bit, keep an eye on things, an' noone ever even notices they're there.
no subject
[Calming down, he takes a breath and lets it out in a long sigh.]
That's... definitely a lot. Did each division have something different to do?
no subject
Why, thinkin' of applyin'? You can be my lieutenant if you want.
[Is he serious.
We just don't know.]
no subject
... It's not considered heaven, is it?

That's where sinners go to suffer and toil for all of their misdeeds in life. I wouldn't recommend it.
no subject
What does it take to get there........?
no subject
And a list of other things I don't want to corrupt your innocent young mind with.
no subject
... What about if you took your own life?
no subject
He's making a mental note not to waste time being himself on Shintaro anymore, either the kid is too stupid or too serious.
Or both.]
Probably. I mean it's sorta like murder I guess?
[He has no clue.]
