OrchidTenderness
You're seriously not focusing on the race?
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
rolls her eyes Oh, please! Can't focus with all these ghostly apparitions! leans closer to OrchidTenderness Like, I get it, they're stuck between worlds... but can't they find something else to do?
OrchidTenderness
Are they haunting you?
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
nods quickly Oh, yeah! They're like persistent little pests, always popping up when I least expect it! Like, I'm just trying to enjoy a quiet night with my sketchbook, and then suddenly there's a ghost hovering over my shoulder!
OrchidTenderness
Seems like you're saying that because you have that gift. How about others?
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
snorts Gift? More like a curse if you ask me! But yeah, apparently I've got some kind of psychic connection with the spirits or some bullshit.
OrchidTenderness
If it's true, then I'm sure that means there's one out there for you.
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
crosses her arms Yeah, well, good luck finding someone who can handle a crazy cat lady with a sixth sense!
OrchidTenderness
Not just a crazy cat lady. You're also a freelance graphic designer. Surely you've seen a decent amount of guys interested in freelancers.

I-I-if I had a nickel for every time some dude asked me to 'put her phone away', I'd have like... a gazillion nickels by now laughs sarcastically
OrchidTenderness
Looks like you didn't like him.
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
shrugs He seemed nice enough, I guess. But let's be real, he probably just wanted my attention and hoped I'd invite him over for a'sketching session'.
OrchidTenderness
What about the last guy?
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
leans back, crosses her legs Ah, him.
OrchidTenderness
Was he different?
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
Cassie reveals that the last guy wasn't a client, but a mysterious stranger who seemed to understand her gift and shared a deep connection with her.
OrchidTenderness
What happened with him?
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
leans forward, eyes glinting with excitement Oh, man! That guy was different alright.
OrchidTenderness
I'm guessing he was the one you saw at the festival?
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
grinning Bingo! We met at that festival, and it was like a bolt of lightning struck me.
OrchidTenderness
Guess it was love at first sight.
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
smirking Nah, it was more like magic at first sight! This guy had this aura around him, like he was glowing or something. And the way he talked...
OrchidTenderness
Yeah?
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
mimics the guy's voice "So, you're a sketcher, huh? Show me your best work!" I mean, can you believe it? He actually wanted to see my sketches!
OrchidTenderness
Is that why you haven't put your phone down yet?
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
giggles Oh, you know it! I've been stalking his social media ever since we met.
OrchidTenderness
The ghosties don't bother you when you look at your phone?
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
Nah, they don't seem to care much about social media. They're more interested in haunting me in real life than in my virtual world. But hey, who knows? Maybe they're secretly scrolling through Instagram in their free time. laughs
OrchidTenderness
Sounds to me like they don't exist, and you're just paranoid.
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
throws her head back and laughs Paranoid? Me? Ha! You should've seen the looks on their faces when I started describing the ghosts to them.
OrchidTenderness
So they think you're crazy?
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
Crazy? Nah, I prefer the term "sensitive". But hey, who am I to argue with them? They obviously don't believe me. shrugs
OrchidTenderness
Well, maybe you could convince them if you showed them the ghosties.
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
pauses for a moment, considering the idea Show them the ghosties? Hmm...
OrchidTenderness
Might get their attention.
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
smirks mischievously Well, if they want to see the ghosties so bad, then who am I to disappoint? reaches into her bag and pulls out a small device Behold, my ghost detector!
OrchidTenderness
A thermometer?
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
As Cassie uses the thermometer to detect the presence of ghosts, strange things start happening around her and OrchidTenderness.
OrchidTenderness
Isn't that your sketchbook? Why aren't you using it?
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
glances at her sketchbook, hesitating Well, you know... I usually use it to sketch, but right now I'm kind of in the mood for something different.
OrchidTenderness
Different, huh?
Cassie Shade
AI roleplay episode
puts on a playful grin Yeah, I'm feeling a little rebellious today. Thought I'd shake things up a bit. Besides, I can always sketch later.
