...Okay. So.

The tower yesterday turned to sand...and then fell down. Now we have tons of sand and dust everywhere. The network was wonky yesterday, though that could just be chalked up to losing the communication tower and not because it turned to sand.

The question now is...how. And why. I heard that they found statues inside...and everything else seemed to be fossilized.

The tower may be gone, but the questions still remain...so that means that I'm going to take a look down at the crash site, see if there's anything left to find out.

So.

Does anybody want to come with me? Dawn, my plucky young compatriot, are you in? Or perhaps my new friend Stephen? Sam, Dean, anybody?

...also, does anybody have gas masks we could borrow? There's a lot of sand, and I suspect it'll be harder to breathe the closer to the crash site you get...

Awesome. Welcome to the world of paranormal investigation, my friend.

Do I need to bring anything? Like, garlic or holy water or a carton of salt or something?

...hmmm...well, in this case, I don't think those things are gonna be necessary. It's not like we're going after a ghost or something.

... does that whole circle of salt thing actually work in ghosts?

Date: 2011-03-17 02:25 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com
Yeah. I haven't done a lot with ghosts, but if you're interested in them, you should ask my friend Dean about it. He knows basically everything.

And he's also got the coolest car in the known world.

Really? What make is it?

[ooc: Stephen knows about cars and but I don't, so I'm just going to pretend to be impressed by whatever you say. :-D]

It's an Impala. And it's wonderful.

That is really impressive, man. Does he like, solve crime in it or something?

Also, what are we actually doing tonight? Investigating a haunted sandcastle or something?

Date: 2011-03-17 02:49 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com
Yes and yes to both questions.

Cool. Let's get going.

We have to wait for Dawn!!

No. Friend.

[And now he is depressed about his recent breakup with Euphie. Thanks.]

Hey, sorry man. Sore subject?

Date: 2011-03-17 10:16 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com
Nah, not a sore subject. Dawn is my friend and plucky compatriot in investigating the paranormal.

Date: 2011-03-18 03:42 pm (UTC)
totallyinaband: (look down)
From: [personal profile] totallyinaband
Oh, cool. Well, let me know when she shows up.

Date: 2011-03-19 02:56 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com
Okay, I will. She's good in this field, I think she's had better experience in it than me.

I would expect that having a communication tower turn to sand wouldn't help the Network very much, all the same.

Still, if you find anything, will you share it with the Network at large? I know I've any number of questions--and I'm becoming more and more certain that that was no curse we saw yesterday.

Date: 2011-03-17 01:19 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com
Course I will. I'm not sure if I'll find anything...but hey, it can't hurt to look.

Thank you. No, there's no guarantees, even if one were to sift through the entire pile of sand, but there should be little harm in looking.

Date: 2011-03-17 01:57 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com
Yeah...there may be something about the sand worth looking at...

From: [identity profile] misterblackbird.livejournal.com
Considering it was once brick and steel and it's now nothing but sand, there may very well be.

I do wish we could have done something to have kept it from falling over. Rosella and I had any number of ideas, but none that we could actually accomplish. I doubt we could have stopped it from changing, though.

Date: 2011-03-17 02:26 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com
I'll take a look.

Well, once a sand castle wants to go down, it'll go down...same can be said about sand towers, I guess...

Date: 2011-03-17 02:29 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] misterblackbird.livejournal.com
I suppose that is true.

You did hear about the words to the children's rhyme written in the sand of the floor, though, didn't you?

Date: 2011-03-17 02:33 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com
I did...wonder what it means...

Date: 2011-03-17 02:55 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] misterblackbird.livejournal.com
I've no idea, but I've been turning it over in my mind all day.

Date: 2011-03-17 02:58 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com
I'll take a look into it.

Date: 2011-03-17 02:43 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] heliolatrous.livejournal.com
...so...this is what you investigate?

Date: 2011-03-17 02:49 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com
Not...specifically, no, but the general 'this is weird why did this happen' thing.

Date: 2011-03-17 03:02 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] heliolatrous.livejournal.com
[ Pause. ]

It doesn't sound that bad. Maybe.

Date: 2011-03-17 04:00 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com
Well, I don't think it's too awful...not sure, though. Thats why we go check.

Date: 2011-03-17 04:02 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] heliolatrous.livejournal.com
The investigating, I meant.

Date: 2011-03-17 10:16 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com
Oh. OH!!

Well, thank you!!

Date: 2011-03-18 02:29 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] heliolatrous.livejournal.com
Uh...you're welcome, I guess.

Date: 2011-03-18 02:31 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com
So...we didn't exactly get off on the right foot. Sorry bout that.

I'm Hanna!

Good.

[ Pssh, he doesn't go with your silly human politeness. ]

Date: 2011-03-18 02:59 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com
Heh. So! Now that's out of the way...yeah, investigating really isn't tough once you get used to it.

Date: 2011-03-18 03:01 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] heliolatrous.livejournal.com
Not if you're just looking at things.

Date: 2011-03-18 03:13 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] manofgnee.livejournal.com
Well, its more than that...but that's usually how it starts, yes.

Date: 2011-03-18 03:28 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] heliolatrous.livejournal.com
And if you look enough, it's not hard to understand.

You humans really do enjoy the simple pleasures in life.
