she died and now she's a ghost

[asknurseeloise]

I like when you let me sit on your lap... when I'm... close.

@askneelyexe

You can always sit on my lap.

Eloise sighed happily.

I’ll never take life for granted again!

[askneelyexe]

Never.

So warm...

[asknurseeloise]

Body or parents first?

@askneelyexe

Let’s go find bodies.

It was very rainy and windy. Eloise led Neely out into the streets. It was super crowded.

There’s an alley near here where I’ve seen corpses before. Come on.

[askneelyexe]

Neely followed.

This will be wonderful.

[asknurseeloise]

She led her to the alley. There was a pile of bodies because why not?

Okay, you go inside one and I’ll go inside another.

[askneelyexe]

Am I gonna be Chinese now? Which one do you want me to have?

[asknurseeloise]

Maybe. I don’t know. Maybe you’ll still be you.

Eloise pointed to the body of a woman in her late twenties.

[askneelyexe]

Neely went and layed inside.

I love you.

[asknurseeloise]

I love you too.

It got very dark and suddenly the two of them were human again. And they looked like their old selves because none of this has to be real or convincing! Some people should take note!

Neely? Neely?

[askneelyexe]

Neely sat up.

Did it work?? Are we alive???

[asknurseeloise]

I think so!

Eloise felt Neely’s pulse.

You have a heartbeat! You’re breathing! Oh, Neely!

[askneelyexe]

Eloise!!

Neely squeezed her. Poor Riff and Farley.

[asknurseeloise]

They really thought they got rid of us.

Eloise kissed all over Neely’s face.

Come on! We gotta get to my parent’s house!

[askneelyexe]

We do! Yes! Oh, Eloise!

[asknurseeloise]

They caught the train to Eloise’s parent’s house. When they opened the door, they were delighted to see her. They greeted Neely, expressing how happy they were that Eloise had met somebody.

[askneelyexe]

Neely felt happy and content. Because she's found love.

[asknurseeloise]

Eloise showed her up to her old room which was decorated with posters and some trophies.

They love you. My mother is going to bring us some tea.

[askneelyexe]

That's very sweet of her...

You're so warm... it feels amazing after being dead.

[asknurseeloise]

It does. When I was a ghost I was freezing.

Eloise cuddled up in the bed with Neely. Her mother brought them hot herbal tea.

I still want revenge, you know.

[askneelyexe]

I'm happy just being with you.

Neely lifted her shirt for a moment. There was a very nasty scar across her abdomen.

[asknurseeloise]

Ouch! Let me check that out!

Eloise felt gently.

[askneelyexe]

I suppose that's a side effect!

[asknurseeloise]

It’ll always be there but it should fade substantially. And it isn’t infected.

[askneelyexe]

Can we... cuddle?

[asknurseeloise]

Eloise gently pulled down Neely’s shirt, nodding.

Does it hurt?

[askneelyexe]

Yes.

[asknurseeloise]

Eloise gently rubbed numbing cream into it.

That should help. I’ll get you some medication too, alright?

[askneelyexe]

Alright.

Will we start hating each other again, now we're alive?

[asknurseeloise]

[asknurseeloise]

We're gonna hide in first class.

- @askneelyexe

And steal drinks. And I’m finally going to go home.

We should get married!

[askneelyexe]

We'll find a ghost priest. Come on!

[asknurseeloise]

Now?!

[askneelyexe]

No, when we get there. Onto the plane!

[asknurseeloise]

Can we adopt a baby?

[askneelyexe]

Maybe! Are there ghost babies in China?

[asknurseeloise]

Given the one child policy… Definitely.

[askneelyexe]

Do you like babies?

[asknurseeloise]

I do. Always wanted one. Just one. I didn’t care what gender. I just wanted a sweet little one to care for. Rather than always thinking about myself, you know?

And this is absolutely perfect because I never wanted to be pregnant!

[askneelyexe]

I love you.

Neely kissed her as they borded the plane.

[asknurseeloise]

Eloise was shocked at how easy it was. They hid quickly. She stole a drink of wine off somebody’s tray, sipping.

My parents will adore you. They aren’t homophobic, I promise.

[askneelyexe]

I would sure hope not.

Are Chinese people more... spiritually inclined?

[asknurseeloise]

I think so. They’ll definitely be able to see us, I promise.

They’ll probably want to throw a birthday party for me…

[askneelyexe]

Do they know you're dead?

[asknurseeloise]

N-No. They don’t. So it’ll be a bit of a shock.

[askneelyexe]

I'm sorry.

[asknurseeloise]

It’s alright. They’ll probably be upset but everything will be alright.

Eloise wrapped her arms around Neely.

Are you afraid?

[askneelyexe]

I've never been outside the US before.

[asknurseeloise]

It’s all going to be okay. China is beautiful. I’ll get to show you my old bedroom.

I used to open the window and sneakily smoke cigarettes.

Eloise stole another cup of wine quickly.

Do you want some?

[askneelyexe]

No, thanks. I just like watching you.

[asknurseeloise]

Eloise giggled.

Watching me drink?

This is so funny. Everybody is getting frustrated and wondering where their drinks have gone.

[askneelyexe]

Yes. Because I love you.

[asknurseeloise]

I love you too… I never thought I’d end up with somebody to wonderful. You truly care for me.

You poor baby.. You’re all bruised and bloody from the accident.

[askneelyexe]

You can... see that? I thought it had... vanished...

[asknurseeloise]

I can see that.

You’re sure you’re not in any pain?

[askneelyexe]

My ribs. My abdomen... most days...

[asknurseeloise]

Oh, my darling…

Eloise gently rubbed over Neely’s ribs.

At least I only died by being poisoned. Yours was far worse. We’ll hurt that horrible woman badly, I promise.

You know, I hear she’s pregnant?!

[askneelyexe]

Great for her...

I don't... want to deal with that anymore. I want to move on.

[asknurseeloise]

Alright. We move on. And create a nice li- death for ourselves.

We’re over the water… It’s so pretty. Do you want to look out the window?

[askneelyexe]

I want to look at you, Eloise.

[asknurseeloise]

Eloise blushed, giggling. She was tipsy.

How can I make your pain better, my love?

[askneelyexe]

Can you kiss me? Can we hold each other? Like living lovers do?

[asknurseeloise]

Eloise kissed Neely tenderly, scooping her onto her lap.

When we get there, we’ll make love.

[askneelyexe]

Neely buried her face against her.

I adore you.

[asknurseeloise]

I adore you too.

Even when I was scraping you off the wall.

[askneelyexe]

Neely cackled.

It was so gruesome! Imagine seeing your own intestines and lungs decorating the walls!

[asknurseeloise]

It must have been terrifying, my lover.

I remember seeing your heart… It was intact.

[askneelyexe]

Did you hold it?

[asknurseeloise]

I did. I held it in my hands and I thought ‘Wow, this is a real human heart.’ It was very beautiful, Neely. I wish I’d kept it. Preserved it.

[askneelyexe]

I think the scariest part was seeing my own dead face.

[asknurseeloise]

That was the scariest part for me too… I was just hunched over in my chair. Unmoving. And my skin was all grey. It was terrifying.

Eloise grabbed another cup and took a sip.

Ugh. This is just juice.

[askneelyexe]

Gross.

You have such a lovely color to your cheeks... I'm sorry I was a shithead to you when you were alive.

[asknurseeloise]

It’s alright. I wasn’t nice to you either.

I wasn’t really nice to anybody except Doctor McKinley… But I don’t care about him anymore. Only you. My one true love.

[askneelyexe]

Maybe we could find bodies... and reanimate ourselves.

[asknurseeloise]

You think so? Like… Dig them up?!

[askneelyexe]

Or on the streets, yeah.

[asknurseeloise]

How would we even do that, my love?!

[askneelyexe]

Force our way in and wait for a rainbow or some shit.

[asknurseeloise]

We're gonna hide in first class.

- @askneelyexe

And steal drinks. And I’m finally going to go home.

We should get married!

[askneelyexe]

We'll find a ghost priest. Come on!

[asknurseeloise]

Now?!

[askneelyexe]

No, when we get there. Onto the plane!

[asknurseeloise]

Can we adopt a baby?

[askneelyexe]

Maybe! Are there ghost babies in China?

[asknurseeloise]

Given the one child policy… Definitely.

[askneelyexe]

Do you like babies?

[asknurseeloise]

I do. Always wanted one. Just one. I didn’t care what gender. I just wanted a sweet little one to care for. Rather than always thinking about myself, you know?

And this is absolutely perfect because I never wanted to be pregnant!

[askneelyexe]

I love you.

Neely kissed her as they borded the plane.

[asknurseeloise]

Eloise was shocked at how easy it was. They hid quickly. She stole a drink of wine off somebody’s tray, sipping.

My parents will adore you. They aren’t homophobic, I promise.

[askneelyexe]

I would sure hope not.

Are Chinese people more... spiritually inclined?

[asknurseeloise]

I think so. They’ll definitely be able to see us, I promise.

They’ll probably want to throw a birthday party for me…

[askneelyexe]

Do they know you're dead?

[asknurseeloise]

N-No. They don’t. So it’ll be a bit of a shock.

[askneelyexe]

I'm sorry.

[asknurseeloise]

It’s alright. They’ll probably be upset but everything will be alright.

Eloise wrapped her arms around Neely.

Are you afraid?

[askneelyexe]

I've never been outside the US before.

[asknurseeloise]

It’s all going to be okay. China is beautiful. I’ll get to show you my old bedroom.

I used to open the window and sneakily smoke cigarettes.

Eloise stole another cup of wine quickly.

Do you want some?

[askneelyexe]

No, thanks. I just like watching you.

[asknurseeloise]

Eloise giggled.

Watching me drink?

This is so funny. Everybody is getting frustrated and wondering where their drinks have gone.

[askneelyexe]

Yes. Because I love you.

[asknurseeloise]

I love you too… I never thought I’d end up with somebody to wonderful. You truly care for me.

You poor baby.. You’re all bruised and bloody from the accident.

[askneelyexe]

You can... see that? I thought it had... vanished...

[asknurseeloise]

I can see that.

You’re sure you’re not in any pain?

[askneelyexe]

My ribs. My abdomen... most days...

[asknurseeloise]

Oh, my darling…

Eloise gently rubbed over Neely’s ribs.

At least I only died by being poisoned. Yours was far worse. We’ll hurt that horrible woman badly, I promise.

You know, I hear she’s pregnant?!

[askneelyexe]

Great for her...

I don't... want to deal with that anymore. I want to move on.

[asknurseeloise]

Alright. We move on. And create a nice li- death for ourselves.

We’re over the water… It’s so pretty. Do you want to look out the window?

[askneelyexe]

I want to look at you, Eloise.

[asknurseeloise]

Eloise blushed, giggling. She was tipsy.
