[alright. so now she's feeling the effects of her Sentencing. she can barely lift her gauntlets now, and... you know what? with the way things are looking right now, she's not about to let all this get in the way of her protecting herself or the people she cares about.]

alright, who has a grudge that they need to work through? could be anyone from here, or at home.

or i guess, how do you forgive people who've fucked with you? would that even work in this case?

whatever. i'm just doing this to get my Sentencing over with. let me know so jerry sees it and i can move on with my life or however the hell this shit goes away.

I do not want to feel better. I want to feel that I have finished my work.

[Nuance. He swings another mediocre punch.]

As for your question: yes. This body at most will last me the day. I can remember the techniques though.

[grappler]

[hmmm.]

And then what will you do afterwards?

[.................... she raises her eyebrows at his next comment, though.]

So then... exercising would be pointless, wouldn't it?

[manifestering]

It would. And also I do not really want to do it.

[Thank god for his magic golem body, freeing him from exercise.]

As for what I will do after. I will continue my efforts with this body. Until it can last.

[grappler]

[she shakes her head in disbelief.]

So... if your body crumbles or whatever, then what are you? Or are you just some guy who has to fix himself everyday or whenever you need to?

[she's gotten better with supernatural or magical bullshit, but it's still somewhat confusing to her at times.]

[manifestering]

Dead. [helpful,] Colloquially I am a spectre. Not the kind you may have heard scary stories about. My persistence is alchemical in nature rather than some foolishness about "unfinished business."

[He does the finger quotes. He also realizes how that sounds after he just talked about how badly he wants to murder a guy, so,]

Not that I lack business to attend to. But it is unrelated to the mechanism of remaining after death.

[grappler]

Yeah, I've met a non-scary ghost here, too. Don't know why he's a ghost, though.

[it's still kind of a bizarre thing to her, but y'know. she's been here long enough to know that bizarre things happen. a lot.]

So how's it "alchemical" [she's got her own finger quotes going now] then? What does that even mean?

[manifestering]

Charles?

[He hopes it's Charles, that's his (adopted) ghost nephew. Hooray, Charles.]

Do you know chemistry? It is chemistry with added magic. Formulae to operate. The proper materials for form. A strong will to bind. Et voilà.
