[The feed clicks on and it's obvious that Wei Wuxian hasn't slept well based on the darkness under his eyes. His hair is a mess and he is clearly not wearing at least a shirt as he just woke up and couldn't even wait to get dressed before wanting to get some closure from what he just saw.]

So..I think I just got my second memory.

[His voice is a little rough, either from the rough night or the emotions of the memory, he isn't sure. He clears his throat and glances back as he hears the movement of sheets on the bed. But the other occupant doesn't seem ready to stir so he continues as he looks back over at the screen.]

It's just as unpleasant as the first..but apparently in my past life I had family. And I get the impression losing them was also my fault.

[He reaches up and rubs his face with his free hand, clearly disturbed by what he saw in his dream. He isn't even in his own apartment right now so he can't find a way to distract himself without finding his clothes and making a quick escape.]

I don't know if I'm strong enough to deal with these kinds of things...has anyone developed or gained a power for wiping memories?

That could be a problem but maybe as it's happening in your mind you might understand it anyway? You seemed to understand what was said in this one.

[ His nose scrunched, wishing he had some sort of insight into what purple robes might actually mean beyond being the chose of royals. ]

You never said much about him. The clouds left him alone?

Yeah..it's like they were avoiding anyone in purple. Which if he was family, I guess that would make sense.

[It means maybe he wasn't a complete asshole..he knew to protect his family...he just didn't do a very good job of it.]

[ Anthony was thinking along those same lines. ]

That's something. It hints that you were actually in control of these clouds so maybe you won't have to worry about ghosts rampaging around.

I hope so. Then that means you should probably stay on my good side so I don't send those doom clouds at you.

[A small smile as he gets a little bit of his spirit back. The second drink might be helping with that.]

[ Wei's smile was matched by a faint one of his own. ]

I am buying the drinks. That's got to mean a few points towards ghost cloud protection.

That does get you bonus points. And keep up with the bonus points and you'll even be granted zombie protection.

Useful thing to have in case World War Z ever breaks out.

Hey, it's always good to have a necromancer on your side when things take a turn. That's the one thing those zombie movies always lack..a person with some actual working knowledge of the dead.

[That that he has the knowledge yet, but it seems that is how things are trending.]

Looks like I might have to do a horror movie marathon. That way I can be prepared for when I can start calling on these things.

If they had had one maybe those movies wouldn't all have been such tragedies.

We should do that, zombies and ghosts for you, demons for me. Maybe we would both learn something.

Maybe we need to make this into a movie night. Popcorn, beer and all the terrible monster movies we can find. We can call it research.

Sounds good. I haven't been to a horror movie-thon since last Halloween.

Well my birthday is on Halloween so make sure you get ready to party this year.

But looks like the horror movies will have to be earlier this year so we can be ready when we start getting all..powery.

Seriously, on Halloween? No wonder you had all those spooky abilities.

We should though, when ever you have a day off. Maybe I'll invite Fell if you don't mind a third? Might give him some idea what to expect.

Sure! The more the merrier! Watching scary movies is always better in a group.

It is. Especially if you have some one in the group who gets scared easily. A good well placed scream can really set the mood!

[He laughs, finally feeling better after the rough morning. making plans is the best distraction anyone could ask for.]

I'm sure there might be others that are down for it as well. Depending on the size of the group we would have to figure out an appropriate place to do it.

Yeeaaah. My flat could hold two or three but if we are talking about making this a party maybe we should rent out a small theater. Hire some caterers. Might be cool to see these old movies up on the big screen.

Ahhh a movie theater would be great! And they would already have the concession stands! I don't suppose we know any of us that work in a theater...

Sure but unless we found a specialty theater they might not serve beer or wine. I can do some digging, find a decent sized place, unless you know of one already?

I'm sure there is some really underground old theater that would let people do stuff like that. I can ask around. Especially around the old off broadway area. If we can find one that is super spooky it would add even more to the ambiance.

Just don't overdue the spooky. I don't mind a few cobwebs but I don't want a cloud of dust puff up and drown me if I go to sit in one of the chairs.

Okay so nothing rundown and probably still being used once in awhile. Got it.

Simple enough to find in a city this size. Let me know if you need anything.

I'll put out some feelers and see if I can find us a place. You figure out a date and see if anyone else wants to enjoy a show. You probably know more of the people then I do.

It'll be fun. We could all use some of that.

[ Anthony downed the rest of his coffee in one swig, which wasn't very impressive at all when one realize he only had the thinnest skim of sugary dregs left. ]

So, are you up for another drink or should I get you a cab?
