life offers up these moments of joy despite everything.
ah, you need to choose your words more carefully, @fa1thshakes! the ghost boy is very sensitive whenever life is mentioned. he tends to forget that he died a few months ago. it comes up in conversations that always trail off into nothing. "we should go bowling the next time---..." the next time what? a year later whenever he can leave the park on halloween night? sure, he could leave the park for about an hour tops, so long as he had his dragon figurine but each time he's come back----....he was nearly too weak to pull himself back into the park.
life offers up these moments----.... he doesn't really hear the rest of her words. wide, doe like blues seemed to glare at nothing in particular in front of him, avoiding eye contact. his jaw seems to set, chewing on the inside of his cheek as his hands pull into the long, large sleeves of his hoodie---...hiding them as they ball up into tight fists.
"---...yeah." words are hoarse, forced. he's trying to be better at snapping at people. he's trying to wrap his head around his whole situation. his own death. "---....maybe death offers up these moments too. or something," words seem murmured, uncharacteristically quiet.
