No, I'm pretty sure it's because you act like one.

[ now she's just fucking with him, really. he does actually kind of remind her of mylo sometimes. ]

So what do you really look like? This but older?

[foreverphantom]

[ glares at her for a second...but realizes that fighting that point any further will only make him look more like a teenager. growth! ]

I said the body's not mine. No, I was much bigger. And older, yes. I looked a lot less human.

[doublefists]

[ hehe.

she finishes her steak, and leans back. ]

Huh. [ ... ] Ghost isn't the weirdest thing I've ever heard, I guess. Hey, did your - thing, your game, your last round, whatever - did it have wishes?

[foreverphantom]

Wishes? No, not really. Why?

[doublefists]

Just curious if you would've picked a different form if you had them.

[foreverphantom]

Oh. No, we didn't have wishes, but we had a book we could write into that would make whatever we put in there real.

I remember writing in that I would be able to return to my old form, but...I don't know. Something strange happened. [ furrows his brow in confusion ]

[doublefists]

[ alarming! a reality writing book sounds alarming to her!

she doesn't say anything about that, but. ]

They probably took it from you here. A couple people can't do magic and stuff like that.

[foreverphantom]

Oh, no, that's different. I don't have my powers here either. But my old appearance...I haven't been able to go back to that even before I got here.

[doublefists]

Huh. [ frowns. ] Something out there things you look better this way, I guess.

[foreverphantom]

[ yeah. it's reigen. ]

Something out there has it out for me, then. But that's nothing new.
