[peter nearly offering a ghost his jacket is incredible, thank you peter you are the best. said spirit just flickers like a candle in the wind as mob nods and looks to peter.]

That's a good idea. Maybe we can make him some tea. [a pause.] Well, I guess he can't drink it but maybe he'll like it anyway.

[it's ghosts, who knows. then a pause as he asks,] Do you think sensei would mind us bringing a ghost into the dojo?

[poor daniel, his life.]

[possessum]

Good idea! You know what, I totally don't think he'd mind, he's always super nice about letting people in.

( That... probably has never included a ghost, before.... Sorry, Daniel.

Peter looks back up to the ghost — Antony — and smiles at him. He's still standing a teensy bit behind Mob, but he's no longer looking frightened, just kind of politely cautious. )

You want to come with us, dude? We'll get you some warm.

[this may end with the dojo being haunted by a chilly young man, just a normal day at miyagi-do. mob nods though, of course daniel would want to help someone, ghost or not. he's just a good guy like that, their sensei.

mob points the way for the spirit, starting to move and only glancing back to see their new friend sort of floating like a mist behind them. all the way back to the dojo, where mob opens the door for everyone.]

This is where we study karate. [he informs their new friend. hopefully no one else is around or peter and mob are just talking to the air.

said new friend looks around, a little less jittery around the edges which is probably a good sign? he seems to gravitate over to the bonsai around, making their tiny leave rattle]

( Peter smiles and moves to follow, also glancing back on occasion to make sure the ghost is trailing along. This is honestly pretty cool! They're helping out a ghost dude.... it feels nice.

When they get back inside, he's gratefully shaking off his own cold, slipping his hands into his pockets as he nods along to Mob's words, and adding on some encouraging ones of his own. ) It's totally safe here, everyone's real cool.

( They definitely don't look insane, right.... Peter's slowly following the ghost over to the bonsai, leaning in closer to Mob for a moment to talk to him. )

I can see why you've made ghost buddies. They're actually pretty cute.

[centile]

Yeah, they can be really nice. [peter gets a tiny smile as antony makes the bonsai leaves rustle a little bit.] I think most spirits probably just want to exist or move on. Then really bad ones hurt people and those are the only ones people really know about.

[jelle said it would be okay if antony the frostbite ghost maybe haunted the dojo a bit so... this may be the start to peter getting to look crazy more often, saying hello to an empty room and having bonsai wave back.

mob goes to the kitchen though to put on a kettle. he very, very rarely uses his powers casually but peter's done something very big here without knowing it, namely making his powers feel kind of nice and normal for once. so the stove turns on on it's own, the kettle floats to the sink to be filled while he gets some teacups.

thank you peter, you are a real one. he will move the kettle to the stove with his own hands though, as antony continues to float around. a little less skittish, a little, tiny bit less blue lipped.]
