ITT: We are our avatars.

Vivian: It is good to meet you as well, Mr. Spirit Seeker.

...And if you want to talk to someone that's currently in the afterlife, you go to a...

-Points to Spirit Seeker-

Spiritualist. Duh.

@Alyx: Spirit Seeker: Worry not. Because while he may be dead, we have located his grave. If we perform the ritual there, we can use your body as a catalyst.

Tommy: That means that we can go into the memories he had about you!

@Vivian: Spirit Seeker: While that is true, miss Vivian, it is not always recommended. I am afraid the poor soul has been dead for a while, and his current whereabouts are hard to discern. So, we will take a shortcut. *smiles*

Alyx: Oh. Right. Sorry about that, Vivian. (looks embarrassed, but he gets over it) Really? That's awesome!

Catherine: I'll go to make sure that nothing bad happens.

Michael: As will I.

Victoria: Me too.

Andreus: Count me in!

(Adult!Rika nods)

Vivian: Eh. I know little about that sort of thing anyways.

Remilia: "Hm? What is this now?"

Spirit Seeker: Right then, let us depart immediately. *takes out a strange blue jewel, which starts to glow*

-The blue light envelopes Tommy, the Spirit Seeker, Alyx, Catherine, Michael, Victoria, Andreus and Rika, and makes them disappear. They reappear on the edge of a quiet graveyard, in the outskirts of a small Wild West kind of town.-

Spirit Seeker: This way, please. *starts leading them across the graveyard*

Lupony: ...Goodbye.

Lillian: -stands in front of Sharon-

Garcie: I'm willing to go now, if it's all the same to you.

(they follow)

Alyx: ...wow...(he looks at all the graves)

Catherine: ...

-It's not a very big graveyard, but it seems people have been buried there for hundreds of years, going by the numbers. The Spirit Seeker leads them to an unimpressive gravestone on the edge of the graveyard. Only one thing is written on the gravestone.-

Here rests Joel Rawlings

Adult!Rika: Wait. Joel? The Sky Cowboy? (her mouth drops)

Catherine: ...Alyx...

(Alyx looks stunned)

Alyx: ...

Tommy: Yes...the Green Lightspeed Ranger...I'm sorry, Alyx.

Alyx: It's...it's all right...(his face is pale from shock)

(Catherine gently hugs Alyx in order to comfort him)

...Joel? C-can you hear me?

Spirit Seeker: *shakes his head* I am afraid he no longer haunts these premises.

Rei: *appears* Seeker, the preparations are ready...

GG: "Oh, great! Make sure you have everything, and I'll go get the Platypus."

~smiles, then leaves for a moment~

Stupid RL. I'll be back in ten minutes.

*Vriska and her Ariados enter the Pokecenter lobby*

Alyx: ...okay...(he takes a deep breath)

Catherine: Alyx...

Hina: ...Blanked. *at least she had finished draining GG' misfortune to the best of her ability earlier*

-There is a bright light as magic circle lights up around Alyx's group. When the light fades, they are in the main street down in the small town.-

Tommy: Ah! Over there! *points*

-And there he is; Joel Rawlings, in his cowboy hat. He is clothed in the same strange skins as the people in the town, and he smiles and is greeted by people in the street. His left arm is in a sling, and his right is holding a bag of groceries.-

Catherine: Heh. It's Joel, indeed—(looks at the sling)

Garcie: -gets packed-

Tommy: Come, let's follow him. There is food for at least two people in that bag; I don't think he's alone.

~GG returns on a big Cyber-Platypus~

GG: "Hilarity made it. Don't ask."

~grins~

GG: "Hop on, honey."

Garcie: Yeah, I remember.

-gets on-

Sharon: H-Hey Lily. U-Um, I think I'm ok now. Just got a little scared for a second there...

Hilarity: I assure you, I made it with only the finest in sci-fi nonsense technology.

Hina: ... *glances at the TV*
