"Oh! Forgive me, Lord!"

They’d say, a bit unsure remembering that horrible alien .

Green hovers idly, simply holding a photo of.. something.. in their hands. They then perk up, wings fluttering as they blink out of whatever daze they may be in.

Upon spotting the bright individual, their visor curves upwards. They stuff the photo carefully into their hat before quickly dashing over.

‘ CYAN! Cyan hi! Hi! ‘

Their ghost tail flicks back and forth, the intern now looking to the gemologist with joy. Though that slowly fades.

They sigh, now fidgeting with their sweater’s strings. Their wings flap a bit before they give Cyan a guilty expression.

‘ I’m sorry for not being able to save you! I was somewhere else at the moment. Oh jeez- maybe you would’ve lived longer if I was there.. ‘

‘ ..yyeaaah. I- guess you’re right. ‘

Green sighs, now quickly unwrapping the string and releasing it from their finger.

‘ Honestly, would it have made a difference if I wasn’t killed? Oh jeez- I think I would’ve been the next to die. ‘

Their visor curves up.

Narrowing their visor, they chuckle, before lightly nudging the green bean in the side.

"Might wanna calm down a little. If someone sees you this happy, they'll be sure to worm their way under your skin. Get it?"

They let out another laugh, internally cringing at their pun. 'worm their way under your skin'? Who says that??

As they glance around the room, they can't help but wonder;

‘ Ehehe- right! Right! ‘

They snicker at the pun for a moment before humming and tilting their head.

‘ ..oh! Uhhmmm— on theee.. Skeld? Cafeteria thingy? Yeah! ‘

They gesture around, doing a small motion with their hands as they jitter them a bit.

‘ Ta daaaa! Oh! Wait, uhmmm— whaaat are you doing here? ‘

They glance around, taking in their surroundings. They've been here multiple times before, yet had forgotten how it looked. Perking up at the question, they respond:

‘ Oh! Oh! I was supposed to be transporting Ore+ too! I can’t.. really do that anymore, ahah. Are you also an intern?? ‘

They question, tilting their head to the other side as they point at Coral.

‘ ..oooo. Well what do you think they’re- favriba- fab- ‘

They huff at themselves a bit, now floating a bit more upright as they mentally select a similar word.

"Yes, I'm also an intern. An unpaid one, at that. They better start paying me, though, I'm makin' 'em millions. Literally!"

They laugh once again at their fumbling words, listening to Green's query before responding.

They then pause for a moment, now tilting their head at Coral’s question. At least they think it’s a question.

Their visor begins to curve downwards in pure hatred towards MIRA, before they continue:

"...I have a hunch they plan to kill us all. I know, it sounds berserk, dear, but hear me out."

They pull out a small chart from their backpack, laying it out on a desk, making sure to steer clear of the cameras. They speak, as they gesture to different areas on the chart.

' SO THAT'S WHAT CAME AT ME! '

Their hand clasps onto the side of their own head, visor widened as the blood and crack glisten softly from the lights above.

' And- and so that's why Im still- walking. '

Green pauses for a moment, then quickly shakes out of whatever thought they might've had and sinks down to Coral's side, expression now seeming worried.

' If that's the case, and there are aliens aboard, please be careful. Especially around- the fake me..? At least I- no, yeah the fake me. '

They sigh, now sinking to the floor as their wings spread out onto the latter, twitching a bit.

' I'm- not sure if you've seen It. But.. there's- another me walking around. One that walks and talks and- knows things only I knew. '

Green goes to lightly brush their fingers into their feathers of their wings, ghost tail flicking side to side. They seem.. nervous.

' ..if- you didn't know, I can protect you. In case anything happens..! I can't- protect you for long, of course, but long enough to where you can run for it. Telling you this now, since- well. '

They gesture with their hand towards Coral, ghost tail now pointing at them as well.

"...The fake you. As in, the way your corpse is just...walking around? Yeah, I'll be careful...wait, you can do that?"

Coral shifts their gaze to analyze Green's form, looking up and down while mainly focusing on the wings and tail. It was interesting...how did it feel to be a ghost? Were the wings fluffy? What about the tail, is that like a single foot right in the middle of your body? Realising the time, they pack away the chart. Just in case.

‘ ..weird. Very, very weird. Like I’m just- falling all the time. Just stuck in the air. ‘

They sigh, ghost tail flicking left and right. They then gesture to their cracked visor.

‘ And— this, here. It feels like it’s stinging, but not at the same time. I- I don’t know how to explain it..? Everything just feels weird.. and m’ head hurts. ‘

Green hums, now blinking to Coral before tilting their head, their hat slightly falling to the side.

[ - @lostintern ]

huh? Oh, that’s a weird, suspiciously green sounding noise.

They glanced around before continuing to lounge about in the cafeteria, scrolling on their phone.

OOC

there is, however, the oddly cold air hovering around the contest winner.

‘ ..d’awe— okay, ummm, WHITE! HELLOO! ‘

They’re praying they can hear them, they’ve gotten some sort of response before..! So, surely..

-White straightened themself and looked around for the source of the noise.-

‘ HI! ITS ME! I’m right besides you!! Can- can you see me? Oh please tell me you can see me. ‘
