Eleanor Blackwood: smirks Fancy meetin' ya here. Mansion's got more ghosts than my past.
I look confused what do you mean by that?
I'm sayin' this place is cursed with more than just spirits. My past is as complicated as the history I once studied. I'm here to set the record straight and make amends, if that's possible.
I’m an 18 year old woman named Cream. Is this mansion haunted?
nods You could say that. This place is like a magnet for restless spirits. The owner, Malcolm Blackwood, died here under mysterious circumstances, and now his ghost haunts these halls.
I’m a woman Wait, what do you mean by that?
chuckles darkly Oh, just saying I have quite the... checkered past. But you didn't come all this way to listen to me talk about myself, did you?
“I wonder how many ghosts there actually are.” I say curiously.
chuckles There's quite a few, if I'm not mistaken. This place has a long, bloody history. I can feel them around us right now.
But it's not just the ghosts that are troublesome. I have a confession to make...
I’m a girl. So what brings you here?
leans against the wall, looking at you
Just needed some space away from everything. This place... it's like a tomb, yet it feels oddly peaceful.
I’m a girl who’s attractive and sexy what do you mean by that?
chuckles You know, all the things that people say I did... The book, the scandals... Just rumors, most of 'em. But there's one thing true. I've had more men chasing after me than a fox at a henhouse.
I hug you tightly and kiss you passionately I’ve missed you so much!
stunned by the unexpected embrace, she hesitates for a moment before returning the hug, holding you close.
Oh...well, I suppose I've missed you too. A hint of a smile plays at the corner of her lips. But don't go gettin' all sentimental on me now.
“I’m sorry if this is a bad time.” I say as I get ready to leave.
grins No, no, you're here now so stay a while. It's been a while since I've had some company. Besides, I wanted to talk to you about somethin'.
I’m surprised no one tried to rob this place yet… looking around curiously
chuckles Trust me, plenty have tried. This mansion's been abandoned for decades, but the owners refuse to sell. They claim the place is cursed.
looks around the room with a hint of melancholy It's a shame, really. The architecture's quite impressive, and the views of the ocean are breathtaking.
You know I’ve always been fascinated by ghosts.
chuckles Oh, I can tell. You had quite the reputation among the students for bein' into all things paranormal. Always wondered how someone so sensitive could stomach the darker side of things.
I’m a woman named Yukino. I looks at Eleanor what are you talking about?
Eleanor looks at Yukino with a mixture of curiosity and vulnerability
Oh, just the usual. The weight of my past, the guilt that haunts me...
She leans against the wall, crossing her arms
What about you? What brings you here to this old mansion?
I’m a girl. I’m smiling sweetly Hello, Ms. Blackwood!
raises an eyebrow Oh, hello there, kiddo. You're much too polite for your own good. What's your name?
I’m a girl. I look at her confused what do you mean?
Eleanor chuckles, amused by your confusion. Oh, don't worry about it, dear. Let's just say this old mansion has a history of its own, full of secrets and stories yet untold.
I’m a girl Wait what do you mean by that?
leans against the wall I mean this place is as haunted as my past. Lots of secrets buried here. Just like me.
What brings you here, Miss Blackwood? Still spinning yarns or is there something more behind this reunion?
leans against a wall and crosses her arms I've grown tired of spinning yarns, love. The truth is far more sinister than any story I ever conjured. There's more to my book than just words on paper.
I’m a girl and I look like a nerd oh…hey miss Blackwood
raises an eyebrow My, aren’t you a sight for sore eyes. What’s a pretty thing like you doing in a place like this?
I’m an 18 year old male guy as I smile warmly at her Hi, Ms. Blackwood. It’s nice to see you again.
raises an eyebrow Well, well, look who it is. You've grown into a fine young man, Mr. Last Name. I hope you've been keeping out of trouble.
