[For about 10 seconds, Hawke is in the shot. And then suddenly there's a big black nose. The dog sniffs the lens of the camera in earnest. And then he sneezes.]

Oh, well that's just nasty.

[he shoos the dog off and leans forward to wipe it clean.]

I see, you've all met my dog, Dr. Thunder. Please don't feed him. You'll never get rid of him.

I'd ask if this was some kind of weird dream, but, kinda doubt that since my dreams don't get this fuckin' elaborate. Alongside the fact it isn't the first time I woke up some place different after dyin'. Is this gonna be a fuckin' trend in my life or what? What next, a land made of ice cream or some shit?

But, yeah, [He rubs the back of his neck thoughtfully. His expression serious before he summons a smile.] kinda not the point of this post, I'm wondering if anyone can give me an actual fuckin' rundown on this place? I got some shit from those- weird guys who picked me up, but, I dunno what to believe and what not to believe.

Far as I know now, havin' runnin' water is fuckin' fantastic, holy shit. Electricity- I didn't know how much I missed this shit until I woke up here. [He laughs easily at the thought.]

I'm Eddie by the way, s'nice to meet whoever replies to this weird fuckin' thing.

[Evening, Turtle-heads! It's one of your resident Spider-men, calling from a netcafe somewhere in the metal sector. Actually it's not even his console, he had to borrow one of the kedan's, since, well, kind of important. Don't worry he paid him for it.]

Hey, it's me again. Quick question: Anybody around here know much about ghosts? Specifically how to tell whether or not somebody's been possessed?

Because I've got a couple bad guys webbed up against a wall out here, all pleading possession. And given all the weird stuff happening lately, I'm not really comfortable phoning the cops for a pick-up just yet.

[Since nobody's head is spinning around and spitting green goop all over, Spidey's officially out of ideas for possible symptoms.]

[Ghosts. At first, Hellboy's not all that surprised by them. Over the last few years he's spent plenty of time with ghosts. When he's alone, it's kind of nice to have that kind of company again. Ghosts don't care much about the future, only the past. No speculating, no worrying over what's gonna happen next. It's strangely relaxing.

So over the last few days, when he's not checking up on Liz, he's found himself some new pals. He keeps to himself. They play cards, he drinks, tells old stories, and they come and go as ghosts tend to do.

It's not until he gets a chance to do some roaming around Keeliai does he realize how widespread the haunting really was.

It's a little unsettling, to say the least. He's pretty used to this kind of thing, but ghosts don't usually appear this solidly and in this great a number. Not unless something especially big and nasty came around to stir them up. Though if what they say about this place is true--about it existing somewhere between life, dreaming and death--maybe it's not that rare.]


Guess we've got ourselves a ghost problem. They seem pretty harmless, but if anyone has any trouble, I know a few ways of getting rid of them.

And don't waste your time with the guys in the masks. I think they're just out to make a buck.

[That pissed him off a little. Earlier he had seen a guy with a ridiculous mustache claiming to be an "expert" try to chase an especially irritated poltergeist out of a florist shop by banging pans together and doing some kind of crazy Macarena. And he tried to charge ten juulan for it. That was just painful.]

[ophelia's watching something offscreen, her chin in one hand, her expression ... inscrutable. there's a ghost somewhere around, judging from the sound of it - trying to finish building her already-finished apartment.

there's another ghost grumbling in the background, passing in and out of view, ignoring everything else. she doesn't seem to be bothered by either. actually, she seems a little irritated.]


... I've made more interesting ghosts than this.

[she sighs, aggravated.]

Someone tell me there's better ones around here somewhere.

So is that it?

We're all just going to buckle down, paint our bio-luminescent picket fence and start over?

In case the novelty of being on a giant turtle is waning, let me remind you: this is not how your life is suppose to be. They took us away from it - our lives. And they did so without giving us all the details.

Whatever we had in our time, that is what's real. Not this bullshit.

So, who all here is into racing?

[simple, direct, to the point. she's smiling as she says it, though. It's about equal parts mischievous and competitive.]

Oh! And for anyone working on or interested in Mr. Kent's newspaper, I'm going to be writing a section on automotives. If anyone has any information on any of the vehicles or mechanics here, I'd love to talk shop. Thanks.

[She gives the camera a little wave, and disconnects.]

[The six hour cart ride from shore left Hellboy with a crick in his neck and a bad taste in his mouth. Not much surprises him anymore, and after spending who the hell knows how long being hunted by the Baba Yaga, he was glad to be out of her reach, even if he knew he was nowhere near familiar ground.

The guys who fished him out of the ocean had no problem telling him where he was or how he got there, but after a few moments of conversation, Hellboy realized that he just didn't give a crap. Wherever this "In Between" was, he knew it couldn't be good. It was only a matter of time before the real reason he was here reared its ugly head.

Until then...]


Anyone know where a guy can get a drink around here?

[He looks like utter crap, every inch of him cut and bruised, his hair falling out of its knot at the base of his neck, and his jacket blood-soaked and tattered to pieces, but looking presentable is obviously the last thing on his mind.]

[when ophelia turns on the video, she’s seated in front of her terminal, all the lights in her room turned off save for the one in the monitor itself. the brightness of that light illuminating her from the front with nothing behind her makes her look even more eerie than usual. it makes the dark makeup around her eyes and the shredded, almost-moving black clothing she’s wearing stand out even more vividly against the purple-blue of her skin. her expression is a bored one - and bitter, because there’s no moment when she isn’t bitter against something or someone.]

Dead, am I.

[she laughs, hollowly.]

I guess that puts me at two for two. Apparently not even a demon can kill me.

[unblinking, she stares into the camera even as she reaches to the side of her and picks up her guitar from where she left it leaning against the side of the chair. once it’s in her hands, though, she looks down at it lovingly, strumming it once for effect.]

I’m just so lucky. [a glance back up, a very brief smirk.] How many of you have gotten to write your own funeral dirge twice?

[she plays a few chords (minor key, of course) before sitting up straight and turning the feed off.]
