🐝 Bee: What is a video game that you find comforting? 
andreas likes call of duty. back when he visited his dad on weekends (and by extension, julia) the three of them would spend afternoons demolishing one another. gets really competitive over it. probably would get into pubg if given the chance.
hélène is big on 8-bit games and the like. if asked in public, she would say something like tetris, but she’s the type of fan that would genuinely shed tears at the ib remake announcement. definitely listened to the corpse party soundtrack on repeat when she was younger.
senali/shihan is a huge mmorpg fan. used to play runescape like a religion, currently attached at the hip to ffxiv. has a viera named elisarai, and their internet friends are blissfully unaware that they’re a celebrity. (they prefer it that way.)
??? enjoyed a good game of sudoku here and there. would probably appreciate wordle too, but alas.

LOCATE. HUNT. DESTROY
You thought you knew your job well before this assignment. You thought you had things under control. When the folder found your hands, you went where the dog whistle pointed you – Warden, a sleepy town in the Appalachians. A few missing townies, a few urban legends. They’re nothing to you, your agency’s best hunting hound.
But when your arrival coincides with the awakening of an ancient evil, you realize you’ve bitten off more than you can chew. You’ll need allies, and you’ll need your wits. But what will you do if you lose both?
Greenwarden: Book One is an in-development, word-based interactive horror game set in the Appalachian wilderness. Play as the Tracker, one of the best of the best, and make friends (or enemies), uncover the truth behind the disappearances of Warden, West Virginia, and try not to lose your mind.
Rated 16+ for crude language, violence, and horror.

“this—” [MC points at their chest] “—this belongs to you. always.” for ???
The keychain is wedged at the back of a cabinet, Office Depot notebooks and crumpled sheets of print-outs covered in annotations and a kaleidoscope of rainbow highlighter smears trapping it against the unvarnished wood.
You reach inside, wiggling at the metal links until it pops free. The keychain itself is nothing special; it’s an engraved slice of circular metal, the letter “J” outlined in divots made by long-lost rhinestones. It hums in your hand, a sliver of energy at your fingertips as you allow it twist this way and that in the light.
The door eases open, hinges creaking.
You don’t turn, but you react almost instinctively to the hand resting on your shoulder, touch casual and light. The shudder runs up your spine, and you lean into it, feel their fingers as five individual points of pressure through the fabric of your clothing.
“Was this yours?”
“Used to be,” they answer. “Want it?”
You take another critical look at it, peering at the scratched surface. “Okay,” you say decisively, because you think you can conjure up the image of them picking it off the rack at a tourist shop, a remnant of their once larger-than-life presence. You curl your fingers over it.
Their chin lands on the top of your head, and you can feel vibrations against your scalp as they speak. “Any reason you’re poking around? Hoping to find something?” Their tone is teasing, but an undercurrent of something other needles their words.
You push the drawer shut. “I was looking for you. This,” you say, placing your free hand on your chest. “This belongs to you. Always.”
They’re silent. “I know,” they say finally. “You have me too.” Their always remains unsaid, but the iron of the keychain against your palm is warm. You close your eyes, and let yourself breathe.

“you have stars in your eyes. i like looking at it.”
“i trust you. it’s okay.”
“you’re driving me crazy here.”
“wherever you want to go, i promise i’ll be with you every step of the way.”
“i’ll be damned if i don’t make you smile at least once today.”
“...please stay.”
“hey…” [hesitates] “be safe, alright?”
“i’ve been worried sick! where the hell were you!?”
“so what? you’re still my [name], idiot. i don’t care about what they say!”
“let me take care of you today. don’t do anything in return, just let me.”
[cups person b’s cheeks] “you are a menace and you almost died back there if it wasn’t for me.”

“you… you don’t even have to love me back, you know?”

I do love how ??? is like "I don't throw things at people, I am a POLITE ghost" and then tries to possess the MC. Having plates etc thrown at you is preferable to having your body hijacked, lmao. I think I'll still love them <3
??? says their morals got messy when they died but if it’s just between you and me they were already preeetty flexible (and that’s a generous description.)

so is ??? the kind of spirit that can interact with the human world without outside help or do they need a vessel?
they can interact with the human world minimally! they just choose to stay incorporeal more often than not.

Hello!! Would ??? possessing the MC mean that their memories would merge (i.e. lead to a kind of symbiosis), or would the MC be relocated "to the backseat", so to speak? I'm very curious about how that would unfold! 🤔
think of the MC being inside a room with an open door. anyone can come in and out, and there’s very little you can do to stop that from happening, right?
now think about somebody coming with the intention of staying. the person could choose to share a space with the MC, force the MC out and close the door, stay but completely vandalize the place, the list goes on. basically, you have no idea what ??? wants when they come inside the metaphorical door. it could be any of the above (or something even worse.)
