- Uh...

[That's the only sound that comes out of the feed once it switches on; gold eyes blinking owlishly at the screen for a moment as Lapis realizes that yep, it's recording. Slowly opening her mouth to speak once more, before... something off-screen catches her attention. Prompting her to nod, before she turns her eyes back to the screen to focus on texting instead.]

so i guess this is the only way everyone can understand me, so i'll stick with this.

i know we have to deal with those bug things right now, but i've never really lived with.. other people before. besides my family, anyway. so there's something i want to get out of the way, since i know not everyone likes this kinda thing.

i have a ghost with me.
[At least she's straight to the point.] most people can't see him but he's there.

[A pause, before she shifts underneath her to grab some of the sheets of her new bed that she's been sitting on - throwing them behind her. Which then land and drape over the invisible figure that was floating behind her, who puts his hands on his hips in a 'are you serious' manner - his new cloak allowing others to see the movement.]

i just figured it would be easier to let people know this way, rather than explaining it whenever i ask him to do something. also no, he won't haunt anyone or anything like that.

[This is clearly the best way to introduce herself, A+ Lapis.]

[Thanks to a certain totally useless law student, Jin's a bit more sympathetic to people who've been pulled here with comparatively less combat ability under their belts-- it's kind of a relief to hear that she's got something going for her.]

I'm Jin. Give him my regards too.

Can he affect the environment? Or physical beings? Somehow, I've got a feeling that what we're going to be dealing with on missions won't be limited to just ghosts.

[Then she'll definitely be fine. At least ALASTAIR isn't totally morally depleted, throwing armfuls of unequipped civilians around-- more like handfuls.]

Any reason why you have a ghost tagging along? [He's nosy, sue him.] Doubt you picked him up from a personals ad.

[okay, he laughs to himself a little at that one.]

So just a spirit familiar, still hanging around our mortal coil out of the goodness of his heart. Sounds like you lucked out.

It's not a family thing? Ancestral spirits can be a powerful thing-- I've seen those more than once before.
