[ it's just an ace attorney thing to denote important phrases!! ]
... Not really. I did think there was something different about you.... I guess I'm more surprised that you have powers. You're not a spirit medium yourself, are you?
[ yaywon let's also have a last rites thread bc i love this combo ]
He's my sidekick! My sis... she was a spirit medium like me, but she was also a lawyer.... he was her understudy, kinda. But he's a pretty hopeless dork, so I look after him! And then, when he gets into a pinch during cases, I channel my sis. Pretty neat, huh?

It's just like a regular hotel, really. Most spirits find the way to the hotel themselves. They get checked in at the front desk, and then given whatever services they want.

They can go to the salon to make themselves look nice... Or go to the lounge to get something to eat... Get married to another ghost at the chapel... Or just hang out on on the beach. There's a lot they can do.

... Yeah, well... I was feeling a little restless, so I figured I'd get some fresh air. Are you doing okay?
no subject
She looks surprised at being asked that though, huh...]
Much better than most of us, I think. [she tilts her head] Are you thinking about the trial?
no subject
A little bit.... there's still so much we don't know. But I was thinking about you, too. I'm pretty sure I heard you say.... that you're a ghost.
no subject
Manwol now looks amused,]
You heard right. Were you thinking about how strange that is?

I can communicate with other ghosts, but you're right in that I'm not a spirit medium. [hm] Is that what you are?
no subject
Yep! In training. The reading stuff was just for fun, what I actually do is channel spirits.
Kind of ironic that we're both here together, huh?
no subject
[manwol just stays invisible and talks only to maya = she'd do it!!!]
Spirit channeling, huh... That's rare. What do you use your channeling for? Helping bereaved families? Handling leftover ghostly affairs?
[can't wait for maya to say law]
no subject
[ why is that her first thought ]
Well... all of the above... and also helping Nick out, 'cause he's totally hopeless without my sis.
[ its law but worse ]
no subject
Nick? [give me the lore] And what exactly does he need help with?
[is he a businessman? is she about to learn the existence of a new rival?]

...I've seen and heard of lot of things in my time, but I think your situation is definitely a first.
[...'was', huh?]
I like it though. It's interesting. Are you studying to be a lawyer too, Maya?
no subject
Well... Nick is very.. unique!
[ like that's the weird thing about it? ]
Oh, no... I'm a spirit medium... in training. I just help out, is all.
no subject
You say 'help out', but it sounds like you're pretty vital to me.
[esp if this nick person constantly needs help from someone who should be RESTING]
...Your talent is pretty rare. I know of a few mediums, but they can't channel spirits. Or if they try, the spirit just completely possesses them.
no subject
[ maya gets very uncomfortable quite suddenly! hm! ]
W-Well.. I'm still in training, so... I've got a long way to go...
What about you, Ms. Manwol? What's your story?
no subject
Me? It's not as interesting, but I'm the owner of a hotel. Hotel Del Luna.
[thinking about how Maya is the only one who knows the name of manwol's hotel now]
We cater to ghosts who need a place to stay and time to settle their affairs before they move on to their afterlife.

[ and she is also very eager because she's never heard of this concept before ]
What? That's super interesting! [ she's so intrigued ] How does it work?

[ the only time she went to a fancy hotel she got fuckin kidnapped so it's not like she could really enjoy the amenities ]
If I was a spirit, I'd definitely want to go there! Maybe my sis can take a vacation from babysitting Nick sometime....
