[ Isaac stares at the screen for a moment, a perplexed expression on his face. He tilts his head to the side a little before grinning. ]

Ha! I figured out how to use this thing properly the first time! I'll have to get the hang of that microwave thing next...

[ He trails off and shakes his head a little. He needs to remain focused! He came on the network for a reason. ]

Anyways, I discovered this mystical artifact while I was out at the store. It's called an Ouji Board! It can be used to contact spirits from beyond. Isn't that amazing? I bet it could be used to contact demons and fairies and... ghosts...

[ He pales a little. Ghosts were the one thing he really wanted nothing to do with. ]

And well, th-the ghosts sound pretty scary so I really don't want to try this alone. That's why I'm asking for help! If a ghost tries to possess me then someone can just... how do you get rid of a ghost? I'll have to look later. But I mean even with the ghosts this seems like something that would be more fun to do with other people, right? I want to try this as soon as I can.

[ He bounces a little in his seat, clearly incredibly excited and eager to try his new toy out. ]

I'll even make tea! And I'll get a cake! I promise it'll be fun!

[...Isaac. Isaac no.]

You really don't want to go messing around with those, if you don't know what you're doing.

[occultaddiction]

Oh yes, that's why I got this too!

[ He disappears momentarily and reappears to show off a slim book entitled 'So you want to contact Dangerous Spirts?: all you need to know about the ouji board' ]

Last time I tried something uninformed I accidentally summoned a demonic boar twice the size of an elephant instead of an angel so I figured I should do some research first.

video

[paladaddy]

[The title of that book doesn't help at all.]

You'll probably want to do the research first, rather than flip through it when you're in trouble. Why do you want to contact an angel anyway?

video

[occultaddiction]

I'm already working on memorizing it! Though it seems rather vague in areas...

[ Still it's a better sounding title then the other option 'Ouji Boarding for Dummies. ]

At the time I wanted to contact an angel to dispose of a demon who was after my friend... Right now though... Well I think it'd be fun! I'd love to make some more friends who aren't human.

[jagermeister]

If y'wanna get technical, I'm a ghost. Though I never possessed anyone before. I'd be more prone to eat 'em.

_{[NOT HELPING, GRIMMJOW.]}

[occultaddiction]

You're... you're a ghost?!

[ NooooOO! But wait... he is looking at this guy kinda suspiciously now. ]

But I can't see through you. And I'm noticing a distinct lack of chains and ethereal fog hovering like a halo around you...

[jagermeister]

What makes you think all ghosts are the same as the ones from your world?

video;

[occultaddiction]

That's true I suppose! And to be fair I've never actually seen a ghost... just read descriptions.

video

[darkasnight]

Demons aren't fun to play around with, kid. Fairies are even worse. They're known to rip your teeth out if you aren't careful.

video

[occultaddiction]

That's not nice at all!

[ Isaac frowns and narrows his eyes. ]

I happen to know a handful of demons who are quite pleasant! And there's a fairy who works for my father's company and he's the sweetest person I know. And Master Mathers' fairy familiars are really nice as well.

[ Even if those ones tended to giggle and tease an awful lot. ]

video

[darkasnight]

Pleasant manners don't equal a pleasant personality usually. Almost every demon you will ever meet is a liar and would sooner sell your soul than save it.

[... That may be a little heavy for a kid. Oops.]

Besides... demons and fairies and things like that are different between worlds. What may be good in your world may be evil in the next. Do you understand?

video

[occultaddiction]

There are a lot of bad demons, but there are good ones too! And there are angels who aren't nice at all.

[ Heavy but he's grown to naturally defensive when it comes to the things he likes. ]

And I guess I do understand but... I can't believe that the whole of an entire race no matter what world they're from is always truly awful.

[Video]

[crackpotcrocker]

Wait a second... You can catch fairies with an Ouji Board?! What the fiddle sticks are you blahhing on about?!

[Video]

[occultaddiction]

Well I'm not really sure! It's apparently meant to contact spirits but I was thinking perhaps there's a way to tune it to contact other beings!

[Video]

[crackpotcrocker]

I was going to say, never heard of an Ouji Board before, [Mumbling to himself] No, I haven't... But than other worlds, could possibly be a way. Wonder if I could use that to capture that fairy here. Mmmmm...

[His vocal returns to normal volume however now he's shuttering] And -- whhhyy exaccctly would you want to contact... [Gulp.] Spirits?

[video]

[cephalopodcounselor]

Ouija boards require at least two participants to use. It's not simply a matter of being more fun that way. It takes two to move the piece around the board to spell out answers.

If you're truly interested in contacting spirits from the beyond, might I suggest visiting the ghost pirate ship? I would be glad to accompany you there as I have been meaning to go anyway.

[video]

[occultaddiction]

A... ghost ship?

[ He shudders a little bit. Ghosts. One of the only things he is actually honestly freaked out over. Contacting one in a somewhat controlled setting is something he's fairly certain he can handle... Going headlong into a ship full of them seems positively frightening! Still he doesn't want to look like a wimp or anything... especially in front of a girl. ]

I... I would love to accompany you on such an adventure! Just how many ghosts are we talking about there...?

[video]

[cephalopodcounselor]

Yes, a ghost ship. I believe there's only a couple of ghosts?

[Or ten or twelve. She wasn't really certain. But she could tell he was apprehensive. So a couple it was.]

Would you like to go now, or are you still intent on playing with that ridiculous board.

[video]

[occultaddiction]

No! I definitely want to investigate it! Right away!

[ He will not look lame and chicken out. Even for ghosts... He'll just... find big bag of salt to bring with him for the occasion. Maye find a priest to give him some holy water. ]

[Video]

[makainoou]

You know those things are a load of crap, right?

[Video]

[occultaddiction]

I'm pretty sure you're wrong.

[Video]

[makainoou]

They don't contact ghosts. One of the other people intentionally moves the pointer around.

[video]

[lovedbyflowers]

Are you sure you should be doing something like this?

[video]

[occultaddiction]

Don't worry! Nothing could possibly go wrong.

[video]

[lovedbyflowers]

But what if you become possessed or... devoured.
