Well, not right now. Obviously I don't have any of my ghost powers here. And I've...been shoved into a human body. But inside? That's all ghost.

[sootprints]

You have "ghost powers" normally?

[foreverphantom]

[ waves a hand dismissively ] It's just shorthand to mean that I can switch into ghost form whenever I want, and use most ghostly abilities even in human form.

[sootprints]

Does that mean you can separate your spirit from your body at will...?

[ trying to picture this. ]

[foreverphantom]

More like there's two layers to me, and I can turn myself inside out to show the human or the spirit at will.

[ she was in the middle of trying to imagine it and now she's picturing him turning inside out. thanks!! a puff of smoke rises from her head. ]

That's... wow. I'm not sure how to picture that.

[foreverphantom]

Glowing rings. When they pass over me, the other form is revealed. I'd show you, but, well. [ nerfed. ]

[sootprints]

[ that's better, thank you. ]

Right... I suppose we'll all be without our powers, perhaps for the entire duration of this.

[foreverphantom]

Probably, if this is the state we'll be in for the duration of this. Not even last time was I left this powerless.

Does being a...shadow fairy give you any powers that you don't have access to anymore?

[sootprints]

[ a nod... ]

I can control soot.

... but without any powers, the soot is just a nuisance.

[foreverphantom]

[ nods, that all makes sense to him ]

Is that what the helmet was for?

[sootprints]

...

That was just to help me talk to people who have never seen a faceless person before...
