Dudes. And Dudettes. And people that are other than those.

Haunted House next month. Loki and I are going to do it. Part of his learning what Halloween is about. Anyone wanna help? Gonna have to figure out a good site for it, but if you think you've got useful skills, definitely raise your voices.

Because this is gonna be the spoopiest thing EVER.

Explain to me just why human beings get so rattled up by these holidays?

[He'd read a ton of literature on the subject of things like Christmas and Thanksgiving while still connected to the net, but it had never quite clicked with him why people found them important.]

[doubled_speed]

They're fun.

[Come on, Gramps, he's already had to explain things to Loki. Does he have to do it again?]

It's about... happiness. And a break from the normal. I think. I mean, I've only had about two years to celebrate shit.

That sounds like fun.

I'd be interested in helping.

[doubled_speed]

That sounds genius.

Uh... I don't know what your actual power entail actually.

Why not the abandoned domes? They're suitably, well, abandoned, aren't they? And such things seem to be "spoopy", likely due to ghosts.

I wonder if they're actually haunted.

[doubled_speed]

I mean, with some time I can clear away anything we don't want too, because explosions. But they would definitely create a nice spoopy atmosphere. I could gather material and we could rebuild a section to just functional enough. But some degree of break down is awesome.

Haven't seen ghosts there yet. They're where I go when I need some exploding time.

[itsnothingpersonal]

Why have I never been invited on these explosion sojourns?

That being said, how large of a facility would we like this to house. You are, after all, possessing of more experience.

[doubled_speed]

You've never asked. I wasn't friends with you when I needed them. You weren't friends with me when you needed them?

[He's taken Enis and Bev. His life is sorta weird, okay?]

I mean, we'd want multiple rooms. But multiple stories definitely isn't a requisite. I've seen places use warehouses and office spaces to section them off. So something like that.

[itsnothingpersonal]

I didn't realize there was something to miss.

[He always needs to blow stuff up, man. Always.]

The domes are connected by corridors and doorways. I'm sure we can utilize them well enough.

[doubled_speed]

Yeah, well, it's not the part of my powers that I use as much. People get uncomfortable.

[HE gets uncomfortable. It's a dangerous power.]

That's probably a plan. We'll definitely need to scout.

[itsnothingpersonal]

[Oh. Well. Awkward.] I...see. [He pauses for a moment.] ...Do you need any help with...that?

[Why was actually offering help this difficult?]

Yes, and soon.

[doubled_speed]

Dude, I know how to blow things up all on my own.

[That's definitely a memory that will come up someday. That is not this day.]

I can run through things too, if I focus and have some time.

Soonest.

[itsnothingpersonal]

I only meant that it won't make my uncomfortable.

[But that's fine. We're done with that, then.]

...physically? Truly?

[doubled_speed]

Bev's pro-boom. I'm fine. I promise.

[Many different kinds of not fine. None relevant.]

Yeah physically. It's all a matter of vibrating.

Had no idea Loki was interested in learning about human holidays. [ She chuckles. ]

Gotta ask though, what is spoopiest?

[itsnothingpersonal]

Vibrating?

[Okay, we're losing track of the point.]

the haunted house is meant to be an attraction, right?

Re: audio; UN: Nemesis

[doubled_speed]

He seemed more interested in this one than Thanksgiving. Which makes sense. You know if we still worshiped Asgardians, he'd be the patron of the holiday.

Uh... Better than spookiest.

[doubled_speed]

It is meant to be an attraction. People like feeling like they're in danger when they're really not. I think that's why rollercoasters are popular too.

[itsnothingpersonal]

So, the point is to inspire the threat of death without actually threatening death.

[doubled_speed]

Bingo. It's about adrenaline and uncertainty and the unknown. People can't handle ACTUAL horror.

[wasinnocent]

Nobody is ever interested in Thanksgiving. I'm sure he'd take credit for it somehow. Can't say I know too much about modern Halloween but I'd been under the impression it was something humans made up pretty recently.

[She 100% believes it's just something he made up right now. ] Is that an actual word or one you just made up?

[doubled_speed]

I'm interested in Thanksgiving. All the food.

[Halloween is the best, and he's sorry you've missed it.]

Been around all my life. And Spoopy is a meme.

[wasinnocent]

Can't say I've ever really celebrated it. Or seen it celebrated. So I guess I don't know what kind of food I'm missing.

Is it going to help or hurt my image if I admit I don't know what a meme is?

[doubled_speed]

Thanksgiving is all the food really. Anything you want is probably appropriate. Or maybe the Kaplans just made a lot of shit so I'd be able to eat while making sure they had food for themselves.

I mean, it makes you old or boring. But it's okay, you can learn.

[wasinnocent]

Was that the entire point of the holiday? Food and nothing else?

Older than most of you, but definitely not boring. [ That's just rude. ]
