Monster Party

(Gary is gripped by paralyzing fear. Even though the room is chilly, he sweats all over. Eventually, he overcomes his fear-induced paralysis and grabs his cell phone, activates the flashlight function, and shines it on the ghost)
Gary: ...Holy shit a ghost! I gotta get a picture of this- oh wait....we have demons and mermaids and manticores walking around, no one's gonna care about a ghost...wait, just a ghost? Ha! Ghosts haven't been scary since the 90s. Er, no offense of course...

Spooky: *her groan fades and levels out, her illusions fading with her voice* ...you asshole. I put so much effort into this. *she lets go of him and floats in the air, hanging her head, her arms dangling lazily as she sighs* Wait, why have ghosts stopped being scary?

Gary: Sorry, they're just kinda overdone I guess. Oh wait, lemme guess. You're another one of those supernatural guys they're putting in my place?

Spooky: Yes. My...name is Spooky. I doubt I'll cost you anything while I'm here, as beign dead has its perks.

Gary: Your name is Spooky? Well, at least you don't start your haunts with that...sorry, I meant no offense...was that your name when you were alive?

Spooky: If I remembered I would probably be calling myself that instead. *stretches as she yawns* But I spent so much time living by myself after I died I forgot most things about my old life.

Gary: Really? How much time has passed since you died?

Spooky: Hm...*looks to the side a bit, in thought* Perhaps a couple centuries. Maybe a little more?

Gary: Woah! What have you been doing all this time?

Spooky: Sleeping. I decided to go out for a walk one day and they said I should come here since I was freaking people out.

Gary: Wait, ghosts can sleep? Also, were you in some person's house sleeping? Woah....and they exorcised you by telling you to go away, cool...

Spooky: Yep, pretty much how it went. Ghosts don't need to sleep, but it's relaxing.

Gary: Wait a second! You're a ghost, right? What's the afterlife like?

Spooky: Well in my case Earth is veiled in a fog and I can see other ghosts that aren't bound very strongly to Earth, so they're invisible to anyone that's alive. Sometimes demons show up because they're looking to possess someone. They're terrifying but usually don't bother interacting with ghosts.

Gary: So are you bound to earth by some unfinished business or something?

Spooky: I feel like if I were bound here by unfinished business I'd remember it. I'm not sure how that works. I imagine if I forgot what bound me here I'd pass on properly or something. I might just like living too much.

Gary: Soooo what can you do? Like, move stuff around and pass through walls and junk? Oh wait....hold that thought! *gets up and rushes to the bathroom, turns the light on, lifts up the lid, and starts peeing* Ahhh.....oh that feels so much better...

Erna: *stirs and wakes up, all sleepy eyed and stuff* Huh? Why turn on the light? Is it morning?

Gary: Eh? Oh my god! I'm sorry! *doubles back, and trips, falling on his ass* Ouch!

Erna: Oh no! Are you hurt? *sits up in the tub, exposing herself unknowingly*

Gary: Eh? I gue-WOAH! *covers his eyes nervously* You're naked! Why are you naked?!

Erna: Huh? I sleep naked. Does it bother you? I guess I could invest in human swimwear for sleeping in then.

Gary: No it's okay...*rubs the back of his head, and then zips up his pants after putting away his penis* I guess we're even in that case...>///>

Erna: Huh? Your doodle? I guess that's even? Mermaids are naturally naked underwater anyway. No need for clothing in the ocean depths after all.

Gary: So they're all naked? And they're all girls, too? Woah...
