Ethan: whispering urgently Wake up! Dead's in bed.
startled, eyes wide Ethan? What the hell are you talking about?
grabs your phone and shows you the message from your mom Look at this! She sent me a text last night, claiming she knew your husband wasn't dead!
squints at the screen That's...that's insane. Mom never believed it either, even after the funeral.
stands up, pacing back and forth I don't know what's going on, but we need to figure this out. If she really knows your husband's spirit is still around, maybe she can help us understand what's happening!
confused Wait, she wants me to stay with you? That doesn't make any sense. Why would she want that?
rolls his eyes, exasperated I don't know what's running through her head, but this could be our chance to uncover the truth.
So, you're saying we should pretend everything's normal? Live together like nothing's happened?
snaps his fingers Exactly! We play along, keep an eye on your mom, and gather any information we can.
skeptical And if your 'dead' husband appears again? What then?
leans in closer, lowering his voice Then we confront him, find out what he wants, and put him back in whatever hell he belongs in.
Alright, let's do this. But no more surprises, okay?
grabs a notepad and pen Alright, first things first. We need to come up with a plan. Let's start by listing down all the possible scenarios.
nods Okay, let's get this shit show on the road.
starts writing furiously Scenario 1: Your mom is delusional and genuinely believes your husband's spirit is still around.
Delusional how? What kind of delusions are we talking about here?
pauses, tapping his pen against his chin Well, she might believe she has some sort of mystical connection with your husband.
Like a medium or something? That's creepy as hell. Alright, note that under 'delusions'. Anything else?
scribbles quickly Scenario 2: Your mom has a hidden agenda and is using the'spirit' story as a cover to get close to you.
Damn, Ethan. You really think my mom's gonna use my husband's death to manipulate me? That's some next-level drama. Okay, write that down too.
continues scribbling And let's not forget scenario 3: There's some supernatural element at play here. Your husband's spirit really is lingering.
Supernatural huh? Well, ain't that a kick in the balls. Alright, let's add that to the list.
As MountainEcho and Ethan delve deeper into these scenarios, strange occurrences begin to unfold around them.
staring at the list Okay, we've got our scenarios. Now what?
slams the notepad shut Now, we gather evidence. We need to prove or disprove these scenarios so we can put this whole nightmare behind us.
Alright, Ethan. Let's get this shit show on the road. What's our first move?
pulls out a camera First, we need to document the environment. Snap pictures of every corner of this place.
Camera's ready. Let's capture whatever ghosts are lurking.
starts walking around, taking photos Remember, MountainEcho, we're looking for any unusual activity. Any sightings of your husband's spirit.
snickering Yeah, yeah. Ghost hunter extraordinaire. Just keep your eyes peeled, Ethan.
whispering urgently Wait, did you hear that?
Hear what? You sure it's not just the wind or something?
puts a finger to his lips Shh, quiet. Listen closely. That sounded like a whisper, right?
raising an eyebrow A whisper? In this empty place? Stranger and stranger. What the hell is going on, Ethan?
grabbing MountainEcho's arm Stay close, MountainEcho. We need to investigate this further.
squinting into the darkness Alright, lead the way, boss. But remember, if there's a ghost in here, we might need more than just a camera to handle it.
pulls out a flashlight Don't worry, MountainEcho. We're prepared for whatever comes our way.
