Mind if we hitch a ride?

Greetings, mortals, and welcome to my blog. I'm Phineas Isaac Montgomery -- oh my, that is quite the mouthful, just Phinny is fine -- haunter extraordinaire. When I'm not happily frightening visitors to my wonderful home, the Haunted Mansion, I have time to answer a few of your questions. Joining me occasionally are my fellow hitchhikers, Gus (who will be typing in italics) and Ezra (who talks in bold).

((HI I AM ABSOLUTE TRASH AND STILL ALIVE

Theatre absolutely ate my entire life last week, as well as a gift echange in another fandom the week before, and I KNEW they would but I forgot to make a post about it because, let me reiterate, I am absolute trash. But I will fix that.

However theatre is still eating my life so posting will be slow-going. I'll get a question or two done tonight.

Still really sorry, ~Emmy))

"Hello? I don't believe we've met before!"

Ezra eyed the ghost curiously, leaning back and crossing his arms. He was definitely before his own time, if the ghost's clothes were anything to go by. Then again, weren't there a few spirits in the mansion who had died at a costume party? "No, I don't think we have," he said. "Are you new to the mansion or somethin'?"

Hello,I have a qustion for Ezra,do you play pool and if you do,want to go against me.

I’m more of a poker kinda guy, but… *He shrugs.* …sure, kid. Y’sure you wanna go up against me, though? I don’t play often, but I’m pretty good. *He quirks and eyebrow and smirks.*

Welcome back you three

Thank you, Edda. I apologise, our dear followers, for out rather extended absence, but a few someones managed to smash our laptop flat.

It was Gus's idea.

My leg was ATTACHED to that ball and chain, thanks! ...Even if it was kind of fun.

Hi... do all three of you like Science?

Of course! My profession requires me to be a man of science, after all.

I can't really say I've had much experience with science... But I guess physics helped me escape jail a few times, right?

I... may or may not have failed science in school. I mean, c'mon, I was a lawyer for chrissakes. It blows stuff up, though, so it's okay.

((*brushes the stupidly thick layer of dust off of blog* It's been a loooong long time... *cracks knuckles* I missed you guys. Let's do this :D Ask box is cleared and open!))

[askthehitchhikers]

((Remember when I said I'd be back within the week and it didn't happen WELL IT'S HAPPENING NOW SO THERE ;;___;; I was kindasorta drowning in make up work AND I started taking an eighth class online so... Life ate me whole and finally spit me back out again.

...Hai guys

What are Gus and Ezra's full names?

Well… I never knew my full name, I don’t think. I can’t remember it. I had a lot of full names, over the years, since I had to get away from the authorities so often » I’d pick up last names from graveyards. …My favourite was Bisset, if it counts. It’s French… Kinda pretty. I used it as often as I could.

Changed my last name as soon as I got out of the house in order to… yeah. I got Petrovich out of a newspaper. Don’t think I’ll be giving my old last name out, especially not across the entire internet, just in case either of them have the means to see it. There’s no way in hell I’m letting them find me in the afterlife. I spent enough time having to deal with them when I was alive.

((Yet Another Mod Post (I KNOW I'M SORRY) ))

((Remember Tuesday when I said I'd be able to start answering questions again? Yeah... Life kicked me down again. When I got home from school that day, I found out my great grandmother -- who my mother was very close to -- was dying, and yesterday morning, she passed away.

The funeral is on Monday, and due to airlines being airlines, I'll be flying home on Wednesday night. Hopefully when I get home I'm able to finally reawaken this poor, neglected blog again |DD 

See you then, --Emmy))

Mod Post: I'm not actually dead

((So.... Yeah, I really don't have a solid, good apology for my sudden unexplained hiatus of... what, ore than 2 weeks? Yeah, that was really really terrible and unbefitting of a mod, let alone one playing three of the most popular characters in Disney. Not cool, Emmy, not cool. I do have an explanation, though. I disappeared right after Christmas, and I didn't have time to say goodbye since my family took a surprise vacation back to Colorado for the rest of winter break. As for the next week.... That was midterms week. I couldn't even touch my laptop, let alone answer questions for fear of my mother snapping it in half. But now midterms are over and I have lots more time now.

So yes, I'm back in business! The boys are coming back with some new headcanons and character development I found and employed over my hiatus, and I have a somewhat crack-y drabble I'm hoping to write tomorrow. On that note, though, the askbox is cleared. I did have a few m!As and some older questions hovering around, and being the terrible mun I am, I just kind of cleared them out. If your question didn't get answered, FEEL FREE TO ASK IT AGAIN I WILL ACTUALLY ANSWER IT THIS TIME I AM SO SORRY.

On that note, it's seven AM and I have to rush to school. Good to see everyone again :)

-Emmy))

I just want to give a shout out to all the medical staff that have to work during the holidays. Thank you for what you do and for caring and comforting those who are ill or hurt during the holidays. Thank you for spending your Christmas by their side and doing your best to keep them healthy.

And strange and frightening sounds echo through the halls…

[themansionwitch]

Is it possible to catch colds even when you’re a ghost?

[askthehitchhikers]

Unfortunately, yes, for some strange reason that has something to do with ectoplasm and mortal memories. Why, are you alright?

[askthehitchhikers]

What's one of your proudest moments?

Oh, definitely when I graduated from medical school and started practising — when I began to help people.

When I started to actually live instead of just surviving on my own, completely independent of everything to do with my parents. Even if I was dead pretty much a month later.

As terrible as it is, the first time I pulled off a heist… I’m not going to elaborate on that ;_;

Of course, those are moments in our mortal lives, but in our afterlives, per se, I think I speak for all of us when I say it must be the moment we were integrated into the mansion, when it was opened to guests.

Definitely :DD

Spot on.
