the blood you bleed (is just the blood you own)
Ghost hunting au! where Phil, Techno and Wilbur run a ghost hunting agency, Phil gets killed on a job and Techno has to prove his innocence against a first degree murder charge, while seeing the ghost of his best friend, dealing with his asshole of a lawyer who he beat up in college, and doing a deep dive into a sketchy company that has a little too much interest in the house where Phil died.
Featuring: Quackity is a fantastic lawyer and a little shit, Fundy is an unpaid intern, ExDee industries, ghost children, Lockwood and co ghost mechanics and a suspicious number of people called Dream.
“Phil… Phil was my friend as well. I don’t like you, but I know you well enough that’s there’s no way in Nether that you killed him."
Techno swallowed, the sick feeling twisting further to the point of pain, “... fine. What do you need me to do?”
“Keep your mouth shut and play nice with the judge. If you say anything about how corrupt the government is, I’m leaving the country and immigrating to Romania where I’m going to live in a trailer in the forest and sell plums for a living.”
“That’s oddly specific.”
“New rule, just don’t speak at all. It might help"
