I tried to get through to you

[You know what that was? A fiasco. That was an utter fiasco. Three more people gone on a chance that may not happen! This is horrible. Even if some people dislike her, Rhea... is up to the challenge once more. This time she does it nearly herself: writing out the invitations, ordering the food and telling everyone to meet at the bar. In Ema's honor, of course.

She hands out the invitations herself and if she can't find you, she'll slide yours under your door.]

That's true...but it still makes me wonder if she let it erase any of her last hesitations.

Maybe. But even if it did, it was only a chance. Maybe he won't be able to do it.
ladygeryon: (okay yeah sure)

Yeah...it's good to know we have some way to communicate, but I'm not banking on them actually coming back. [Even the miracles that can revive the dead have a time limit between initial death and unrevivability.]

[This has generally been Rose's experience as well.]

It's probably better not to get our hopes up.

Definitely. I'll be happy enough if we manage to keep in contact with them while we're here and they don't end up trapped in some kind of purgatory when we leave.
lovelikeyou: (🌸 I could even)

[Rose doesn't really know what a purgatory is, but she can figure it out from context clues more or less.]

That would be nice. I don't...do humans usually do this when they die?

There's stories, and some Ghost-types seem to have memories of being human in some way, but generally...once someone dies, if they're not revived in time, their soul's just...gone, somewhere they can't communicate anymore. I don't believe they just disappear...but also stuff like this is usually the stuff of scary stories, not something that just happens in plain sight.
