[Someone has found her way into the ghost zone. Nat shows the network a shot of floating rocks and some ghostified sparrows hopping among them.]

Why aren't more people going through these um warp holes? They should be mapped. "There are flying weird animals sometimes" isn't a good keep-out sign, if you ask me. Besides, most of them are harmless.

[She yelps! -One flew too close and startled her.] -Just annoying.

Well... it's in Las Vegas right now. Which- um. Actually. Which is more or less safe again, now that we don't have to worry about Raye's other trying to murder us. Yeah, that should probably be a priority.

And what did I just say about not trying it on purpose?

[alderaanda]

There's murderous others now?

[she's fifteen and has never gotten worse than a bad bruise. Nat thinks she's immortal.] Or I could try climbing up those hills in the junkyard. There's so much stuff there, it'd be worth a shot.

You heard about the doppelgangers, right? Raye's tried to kill my fiancee and I. We only just barely got out with our lives. But there wasn't time to move the car, or check on my parents, or to finish recovering from almost being cut in half, or... really anything except "run away". Except we watched Raye's doppelganger die, so that specific problem is taken care of.

...A junkyard sounds moderately safer than running into traffic. Still not great, but that's a more normal teenager thing to do. [Winter, you read romance novels and desire to actually serve on the student council for the betterment of society. You are not qualified to determine what normal teenager things are.]

...Wow. Pretty heavy! I'd heard but not that they got that bad.

'Normal' left a long time ago. Besides, it's all totally subjective.

[peacefulwinter]

It depends on which one you're dealing with, honestly. Raye is extremely strong, but she's normally good about using it for the right reasons. So her opposite... wasn't.

And don't change the subject! You're going to get yourself hurt, you know. Special sense or not.

[alderaanda]

Huh. Right, so good people get bad copies?

There just isn't a way to test a danger-sense without danger.
