i know i’m the one who keeps saying it’s not going to be like flipping a switch but it is a little disheartening that my coworkers seem to have like. zero faith in me whatsoever.
#one of my coworkers called me on the verge of literal tears this morning because i hadn't started working on the newsletter i took over#from her#(she just collects the articles and pieces now and i organize them into a pretty newsletter for her)#at literally 8:00 am which is the INSTANT my work day starts#and i know part of that is bc she had surgery yesterday and she's just generally anxious about her work getting done#bc god forbid any of us take any time off for any reason ever#but she's almost crying bc i haven't started working on it and it goes out *checks notes* on tuesday of next week#like i know that might seem a little tight but 1.) she knows i usually do our other newsletter ALL BY MYSELF like. the day of.#and 2.) i had a lot of other really high priority tight deadline shit going on this week bc we have a big conference going on next week#which again........ she should know#like not only did i have another newsletter go out on tuesday of this very week#but i had other really high priority shit that was due yesterday and the day before#like idk i guess what i don't like is the assumption that i had forgotten and that i didn't have a plan#when literally the only thing on my to-do list today is [NEWSLETTER NAME] in all caps#and i sent her a preview of it (which tbh i thought was pretty fucking good and one of my other coworkers agreed) and now she's just#nit-picking it apart#and i'm just so frustrated#like all she does is weep and wail about how overworked she is--WHICH SHE IS#but then like you have to let me do things for you#the whole idea is that i'm trying to take things off your plate#if you're just going to fucking bitch at me non-stop then like idk#you do it#go back to working 60 hour weeks see if i give a fuck#work tag

LUIGI'S MANSION 3 HEADCANONS
There's a lot of headcanons I have for everyone sosnsjsnsn so enjoy!!!
~~~~~~~
General ghost headcanons
Ghosts don't technically NEED TO eat and sleep, but a lot of them do both anyways because it's a pleasant experience, and a lot of them never stopped those habits after they died.
Ghosts can make themselves solid and transparent as they like; meaning they can make themselves solid to interact with objects and people (like Luigi), but can also make themselves transparent to go through walls, people, etc.
Not all ghosts are people who died - some ghosts are born that way. Portrait Ghosts/Boss Ghosts however ARE people who died.
Ghosts curl their tails together as a sign of affection, akin to holding hands.
Ghosts can change their bodies a little bit, like extending limbs, etc. Some ghosts (like Morty....mostly just him) like to change their tails into legs from time to time!
---------
Hotel Staff
The hotel was functional before the events of the game, and served as a hotel for ghosts. The staffing was the same (i.e. all of the portrait ghosts were there) as well as some of the Goobs and other ghosts working for the hotel.
Even though they're ghosts and don't technically NEED TO rest or anything, the staff still have an end to their work days to sleep and do as they'd like...but they still have to work LONG days.
On the second floor on the left side of the hallway, there's a door that leads to a hallway containing a set of rooms for the hotel staff to stay in, since they all live there.
---------
 Steward
He died in the 1940s at the age of 25, working as a bellboy - he lost control of a trolley of luggage and fell down a flight of stairs, snapped his spine, and was smothered/suffocated under the luggage when it fell on top of him.
He has nightmares sometimes about his death.
He overworks himself to please Hellen because he MUST Be A Good Worker. He does the jobs of at least three people all at once and is constantly moving.
He's very anxious and is prone to having anxiety attacks.....about work and just life in general.
He's trans and gay and is dating Kruller!
---------
 Chambrea
Chambrea was murdered in the 1940s on her way home from work one evening, by an unknown man. She was 36.
She's a HUGE Gossip, and she loves to listen in on people's conversations to get the Tea. She's known to spread rumors and not have all the facts though...so take her gossip with a grain of salt.
She has a HUGE crush on Johnny Deepend. (She's into very toned guys.)
---------
 Kruller
Kruller died in the 1980s at 42 years old, from a heart attack while running around on the job. He had high blood pressure and high cholesterol from poor diet his whole life that led to the heart attack.
He feels much more confident with his sunglasses on.
He wears glasses when he's off the clock. Poor guy can't see without them! His sunglasses are prescription too.
He LOVES board games!
He's really nervous and easily flustered! He tries really hard to be tough, but in the end he can't do it because he's just a really sweet guy.
He falls asleep on the job a lot.
He's Bi and loves his boyfriend Steward!
He's best friends with Morty and DJ Phantasmagloria!
---------
Chef Soulfflé
Soulfflé died in the early 1910s after getting locked in the freezer overnight of the kitchen he worked at. He was 51.
He thinks all of the food he made is Top of the Line, and he WILL get angry if you say otherwise.
---------
 Amadeus Wolfgeist
Amadeus died in the late 1700s from an aneurysm brought on by his temper after a performance. He was 49 years old.
He sleeps in his piano more often than in his room in the hotel. He prefers solitude and doesn't like being around the others. Most of his free time IS spent alone in his theater or dressing room.
He has a BIG sweet tooth and can't resist sweets....especially donuts!
He doesn't like DJ Phantasmagloria's music.
---------
 King MacFrights
Died in the mid 1300s at the age of 41 in battle, when he took a Lance to the chest and was impaled.
He's very sensitive about his height and he will get VERY angry if you comment on it at all.
---------
 Dr. Potter
Died in the late 1970s from old age at 85.
He was a recluse and took care of dozens upon dozens of plants all at once and he loved every one of them dearly.
He sweet talked his plants and would Hum to them softly as he made his way through his gardens.
He names every single one of his plants!
---------
Morty
Morty died in 1972 at 37 years old, when a stage light fell on him after he uttered the word "Macbeth" in the theater. He didn't believe the superstition.
His real name is Mortimer, but he prefers Morty. Don't ever call him Mort he will Kill You (unless You're Kruller. He's the only friend who's allowed to call him that)
Morty was an actor as well as a director when he was alive and performed in theater, plays, musicals, etc as well as on film.
He was fluent in a handful of languages including English, French, and Italian. 
He has a wonderful singing voice and also performed in an opera or two!
After he died Morty continued to haunt the theater he died in for a good decade at least. Mostly he spent his time moping about and crying in the theater, upset over his death.....the locals began to tell stories of the Weeping Ghost that haunted the theater, and his death became a sort of joke - the man who died because of a superstition and now spent his days crying about it. Morty did NOT like that and that just made him ANGRIER.
Eventually he got fed up with that place and in a fit of rage absolutely trashed the place before leaving to find a new place to live, coming upon the Hotel and being given a job there by Hellen.
He's got a big gay crush on Luigi let's be real here guys. They're dating!
He has a fainting couch in the studio that he'll throw himself onto while wailing....he's a big drama king after all!
---------
Ug
Ug was trampled to death and then eaten by a T-rex, around 30 years old.
He doesn't understand anything going on in the rest of the hotel and is prone to destroying everything he sees, so he just stays in the museum.
Thog Ug don't care.
---------
Clem
Clem died in the 1960s due to exposure from the various toxins, diseases, etc. In the sewers where he worked. He was about 28 years old.
He has a rubby ducky collection!
He collects things that people drop down the drains/that end up in the sewers with him, and will bring them back up to be found and collected.
He's dating that weird mop with a face drawn onto it. It's been a steady three year relationship so far.
---------
Serpci
Serpci died around 2000 BC~ at the age of 31, being sacrificed to the Gods. She was the reigning queen at the time, and gave herself up to the Gods for a better afterlife, as well as to help her people flourish.
She's very attentive to how she looks and dresses; a queen such as herself must always look the part, you know.
She's intrigued by all of the new technology and things around the hotel, and enjoys going from floor to floor, learning about it all. Though she does get a bit scared of things like movies, DJ Phantasmagloria's music, etc...
She's a lesbian and is dating DJ Phantasmagloria!
---------
Nikki, Ginny, Lindsey
The triplets died at the age of 12 when a magic trick misfired, and caused the building they were performing in to catch fire and burn to the ground, in the early 1980s.
Ginny is the oldest, Lindsey is the middle child, and Nikki is the youngest.
They like to switch and change hairstyles to confuse others as to which triplet is which!
They think all love and romance and affection between the adults is GROSS!!
The three of them will flock to Chambrea when in need of comfort....the maid is almost like a pseudo-guardian to the three girls, and reminds them of their mom.
---------
Captain Fishhook
Died in the late 1600s during a conflict between his pirate ship, and a band of soldiers. He was shot in the chest and fell overboard, only to be ripped apart by a shark.
The shark however did not survive attempting to eat the captain and died as well.
He very much likes how he looks now and thinks he's a lot more intimidating than he ever was when he was alive!!!
Despite the fact that he thinks and acts like a human, he has an animalistic side as well and sometimes succumbs to those instincts.
---------
Johnny Deepend
He died at the age of 26 around the 1980s, when his swimming trunks got caught on the drain of a pool and he drowned.
He's very cocky and confident about his looks and he loves to show off his muscles.
He's a bit of an asshole......he's just a straight fuck boy, honestly.
He knows Chambrea's head over heels for him, but she isn't his.....type. Not thin or young or pretty enough for him.
---------
DJ Phantasmagloria
She died in the 1970s after overdosing on ecstasy, when she was 29 years old.
She's self conscious of her actual hair and doesn't like it all that much, which is a big reason as to why she wears wigs all the time.
DJ Phantasmagloria is her stage name! When she's not performing, she just goes by Gloria.
She tends to call people "baby" and "sweetheart" as friendly pet names.
She's dating Serpci and is very.....very gay for her gorgeous girlfriend!!
She really enjoys Amadeus' music, even if he doesn't like hers. She understands! She loves listening to him perform.
---------
Hellen Gravely
She killed herself in the 1930s at the age of 43.
She was a model for a period of time before her death. She didn't become the owner of the hotel until she'd already been dead for a few years, but it had been an ambition of hers in her life.
She HATED how she looked as she started to get older, and layered on the makeup to make herself look young and pretty again.
