[To Cedric's credit, he's not going to say no to attention after that battle, even if he was merely fizzled a little bit. He's even kept quiet while the staff treats him, leaving the vocalizations for those who are really hurt - which means he easily picks up Emporio's words.

He frowns. It'd be nice if children could stop being put in danger everywhere he goes.

Best not to talk about that, he suspects. So he simply addresses the strange item the Cubone referenced.] Please tell me it's not called that because the computer is possessed.

Ill never forgive araki for confirming its literally made of ghost sob

[seacub]

Huh?

[Oh, he remembers Cedric! ...Cedric didn't know those tunnels near as good as the bird thought, but Emporio has trouble holding (most) grudges, so he'll just...not bring it up.

It's fine, he'll be nice.]

It's not a literal ghost, don't worry. I just called it 'ghost' because it's a tangible memory. In other words, it's basically a ghost! Right down to what it's made of.

PFFFF sob

[cedricthegreat]

[He raises his Murkrow brow (his Murkbrow, if you will). It's not a ghost, but it's also a ghost? Yeah, that still makes him a tad bit uncomfortable.]

You mean the mind of a d- [Cedric, child.] -late person is inside?

[He doesn't exactly want to ask, but... all right, he'll bite.]

And just what is 'ghost' made of?

me shaking him *REVEAL YOUR SECRETS*

[seacub]

W-what?!

[Emporio almost panics, and then remembers that's silly, because he knows that isn't the case.] N-no!! That's not what it means at all..!!

It's the planet's memory. It remembers what the object looked like, before it was destroyed. I used to be able to access those...so, if a room was destroyed and built over, I could access the planet's memory of that room, in secret. It was a 'ghost room' that no one else could find, unless I wanted them to.

...Ghost objects...I mean, anyone would be able to see or touch them, but I had to find them first. Either way, they were really neat. You didn't have to wash ghost clothes, for example, since they were always in a state of being 'clean'.

[cedricthegreat]

Oh.

[His eyes widen and he lets out a hearty chuckle.]

Oh, you mean the memory is inside, not a real soul! Of course! I knew that!

[He lets out a sigh, to calm his nerves allow himself to collect his thoughts.]

So it's more like... a box that allows you to reproduce something that's no longer there - but it's not the real thing, just the idea of it. Is that right? Reminds me of a spell I know, where you can make a magic visual of any item you want and even touch or wear it if you're so inclined!

[He tucks his wing under his feathers and pulls out... a feather. He stares at it for a moment before dropping it onto the ground, muttering softly:] Right, no wand.

[seacub]

Right! It's like...made of the memory, that kind of thing.

[Emporio please have mercy on this bird.]

But yeah, something like that...That does sound a lot like making a ghost object though!

...I haven't found anything like that here, so it's alright that you can't show me, [he adds with a weak laugh.] ...Honestly it's kind of a shame though, since we'd be able to get a good idea of what the ruins used to be otherwise I think...

[cedricthegreat]

[Cedric will never have mercy, for he is without his magic and he lacks a Psychic-type move. He lets out a deep sigh.]

Sometimes I think I'll get used to it. But I find the longer I'm here, the more I'm reminded how much easier all of this would be if we could just have everything we left back home.
