Tess woke up feeling…groggier than usual. She had stayed up late last night, since today was their day off, and she had–

Her recollection was interrupted by a slight shifting in the bed next to her. Ellie was there, snoring peacefully as she unconsciously adjusted to Tess sitting up. Right. Tess and Ellie had had some…fun the previous night, and ended up both falling asleep in Tess’s bed afterwards.

Tess gingerly extracted herself from her bed, taking care not to wake Ellie in the process. As she got dressed, she began to think about what would come next. And she…honestly wasn’t really sure what she was planning to do with her day. It had been a few weeks and their group was dangerously close to fully clearing the Jagged Cliffs, but Ava and The Rumors wouldn’t allow them to go on their day off, even for this.

In general, Tess had been wanting to go into dungeons as much as possible, but her tutors had said it was important to have days where she rested her body and mind, that going all in on the grind would wear her down way too much. So, she had reluctantly bowed to their wisdom and taken Fridays off. Still, she wished she had something to do, so she wasn’t just at home all day doing nothing.

Fortune: Boy do we have an offer for you. How would you feel about making a little mischief?

Tess: You’re talking about causing supernatural phenomena, right?

Fortune: Bingo. Look, your friends have been wanting to play laser tag with you, right? Just go with them, then send Isabella a few buildings away to cause havoc. You’ll have an alibi, we’ll keep ramping up the incidents, and I get to watch live as people get scared out of their minds! It’s a win-win-win!

Tess: That last one really didn’t sound like something a goddess should be saying, you know

Fortune: Yeah, well…gods are kinda in a way vaguely reflections of the people, and the people say watching ghost videos is a good time. Have you seen how many views those get? I am doing my godly duty by watching this!

Death: You’re reaching hard.

Fortune: Shut up I know you want to watch too.

Death: Yeah but I’m not pretending this somehow fits into my duties. Come to think of it…I even like…practically own the concept of ghosts on this plane so if anyone gets that excuse it’s me.

Death: …

Death: So, as I was saying it’s my godly duty and no one else’s to watch this. Especially not Fortune’s.

Fortune: I’m being your assistant, you need someone to have a second camera, so you have all angles of the shot.

Death: Fine, I suppose Fortune’s my assistant, so this is her job too.
