Just the stuff I've picked up from being on the app. I had no idea the spirit realm existed before that.

Why?

[switchaxe]

...you ever hear of someone bein' possessed?

[fiddlestick]

...Yeah, I have.

It can happen sometimes when someone's had a close call to death, right?

[switchaxe]

Yeah.

[Silence for a moment.]

Albarea said I should let you know, since you're a teacher at school an' all. But...fuck, I've been possessed since I was a kid. Some fuckin' Greek bullshit that likes to pick fights.

[fiddlestick]

O-Oh...

[He had been expecting to hear that, considering the line of questioning. But that doesn't make it easy to hear]

I'm sorry, Ash... Do you want to talk about it?

[He has a lot of questions, but he won't push Ash to tell him unless he wants to]

[switchaxe]

Not really sure what's there to talk about. I'm possessed. It's why I get into so many friggin' fights. Figured Albarea should know, since there's fuckin' fae on the horizon and I'm gonna end up pissin' them off. He said I should probably tell you.

[Ash sighs.]

Hell, maybe you can help him keep my ass out of jail or whatever.

[fiddlestick]

[Ah. Yep. That's Ash. Cagey until the end. Well, Elliot's not going to push it for now. It's not like he needs to know every little bit of Ash's past to see him as family]

So in other words, fighting is your price...

[he sighs. Well. Great]

Yeaaaaah, if the Fae really are coming back, you should probably just stay clear of them unless you wanna spend the rest of your days as a cat person like me.

[switchaxe]

[Thaaaaaaat's Ash!]

I mean, wouldn't be the worst thing to happen. [Since. Possessed.] But. Yeah. You're one of the teachers, even if you ain't one of mine, so...yeah.

[Also Class VII is ride or die but this is also Ash. He'd never admit that telling you two makes him feel better about this shit.]

[fiddlestick]

If you say so, I'll be happy to show you the ropes when you're a cat.

[he says this as a tease. Mostly]

I'll help keep an eye on you, don't worry. Maybe I can't fight you myself, but I know a few people who'd be thrilled to go a few rounds if that's what you need.

[switchaxe]

Nah, I have to piss 'em off and get them to want to fight me. Doesn't work if I don't.

[Trust him, he's tried.]

...thanks. It's...actually getting harder, for some reason. Maybe havin' people keep an eye on me and it will get it to calm the fuck down.

[fiddlestick]

I see....

[That's concerning]

Does it have to be physical fights? Or can it just be arguments?

[switchaxe]

Physical. If someone ain't bruised, it doesn't count.

[fiddlestick]

Dang, I was gonna suggest internet fights.

No wonder it's been getting harder. [...] But we'll figure something out, okay?

[switchaxe]

If this thing ever wants me to get into pointless arguments, I'm goin' to Twitter first thing. I got some hot takes that'll really get people pissed.

[Ash. Ash please.]

Alright. Hell, if you know anyone who might know how to get rid of this fucker...

[fiddlestick]

[he sighs] Yeah, I bet. Too bad we haven't found Machias yet.

[Machias is SO easy to bait ok]

Not off the top of my head, no. But I'll keep my eyes peeled, okay?

[switchaxe]

Or that one Swiftie chick.

[Duvalie. He means Duvalie.]

Yeah. [. . .] Thanks.

[fiddlestick]

[Swiftie chick...yeah, not ringing a bell. Oh well]

Of course.

And hey...thank you for trusting us enough to tell us. It means a lot.

[switchaxe]

You two and the higher ups are the only ones who know. [And Jun, but that's different.] But...yeah. See you at school.
