”All say, ‘How hard it is that we have to die’
- A strange complaint to come
"I like the trashy pop and rap music you hear on the radio." She snickered as she slowly attempted to get a hold of the offered supplies. Thunk It was just as Kasie predicted. The poor and ruined sketchbook and pencil simply slid out of her grasp and landed onto the floor. "Um... Markus did it? I'm kidding, but I really am sorry about that, Jukka." She winced, really hoping that there weren't any drawings in it to begin with. "I... didn't expect you to hand it over because I thought I got the 'no touch' thing across already."

It must have been frustrating to have to wander the earth without being able to touch anything, but he didn't have that problem, so he really didn't care. Yet, Markus just had to throw out some ideas. He had no clue why, since he didn't care about her unfortunate problem, but he did, "Have you ever tried... practicing? Or tried focusing really hard?" ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀

Kasie crossed her arms and huffed out in frustration. "Of course. All the time. Since I can't sleep, I spend all my time either studying or trying to pick something up, but it seems impossible. I'm not even sure why I try since it's all the same result. I usually give up the moment something is too tough. I guess I'm too used to touching to really ignore that. Any other wise suggestions?"

Markus was just going to push her until she could do it. "You're annoying, you whine too much, and you're persistent. That persistence. Use it for something less stupid." He held out his arm for her to use. "Try until you can move my arm." He had no clue why he was trying to help her. Maybe he was hoping she would go away if he did this for her? ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀

"Was that an insult or a compliment? I'm having difficulties telling the two apart, so pick one or the other." Kasie raised a brow at how adamant Markus was being about this matter. Strange. She always thought that he was the type to just not care. Then again, he was that "cuddly teddy bear with thorns" kind of person just like Veith and Sethrian. Wait, that was the wrong analogy since they'd never really hurt anybody. How about an onion? After all, one had to strip down their layers of meanness to reach their inner... stench? Okay, she was horrible with this stuff.
"Fine, fine, but like I said, this will get us nowhere." She mentioned as she swatted at Markus' arm back and forth, missing each and every time.

If someone said that to his face, he would break their face with his horns. He watched as Kasie swatted at his arm, each time steam floating up from the liquid boiling on his skin. "You're not even trying. You're just flapping your arm around. TRY." ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀

Kasie idly slapped Markus a few times and missing to indicate to him that he needed to shut his face. "Shush. I'm trying to focus here." She remarked, not even bothering to comment on the insult portion. By now, insults hardly mattered to her after all her years of suffering through them. Still, she was easily distracted when she saw that steam came off of Markus. "Is that supposed to happen? Why exactly is that happening? Am I doing something wrong?"

For once, they were actually useful for something besides getting strange looks when he recited Shakespearean quotes in the middle of a crowd. While wearing tights. He hoped telling her that would give her hope, and maybe that hope would cause her to finally manage to move his arm. He didn't say anything more, wanting her to be able to concentrate as much as possible without his voice distracting her. ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀

Kasie rose a skeptical brow at that. As a former human, she was fairly certain that people did not have steam rising off them whenever a ghost touched them. Then again, Markus wasn't a human. "Really?" She asked, certain that he was just yanking her leg. Well, she tested that theory out by not trying at all as she attempted to go straight through him in order to see if steam would still come off him. "Blleeaaauuugghhhh. Nasty." She stuck her tongue out in disgust as soon as pink entered her vision.

He could feel the flame building and burning his insides, but he tried his best to ignore it as Kasie passed right through him. Very little steam came off of his body now, to the point that it was easy to miss. He quickly let out all of that pent up heat in a puff of fire before she could turn around and see. Now that his body temperature would rise slowly, she probably wouldn't notice the water slowly evaporating. "You didn't need to do that. It's gross, and now my clothes are soaked. Can you just try without being skeptical this time?" ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀

Woah! So, it really did work!? Kasie pumped her fist into the air and cheered. "Oh, snickerdoodles! You were serious? That's so awesome, Markus!" Yessssss. Now she finally stood a chance. With more determination, she enthusiastically tried to move his arm and failed each time once more. ".... Maybe I'm approaching this the wrong way. Hm. I managed to touch one thing before, but that was a book because Kamil was crushed by a huge pile. I think Suzume or Veith mentioned something about strong emotions."

He was just doing this on a whim. He didn't care if she succeeded or failed. Strong emotion, eh? "If you don't move my arm in the next ten seconds, I will torment Veith for all eternity. And never. Let. Him. Die." He told her, looking extremely serious. His expression, his voice, nor his posture didn't once give away the fact that he was lying. "If you think I'm joking, I'll have you know that my kind live for a very, very long time, and there are many ways to extend his life. By the time he dies of old age, you will have been able to wander around the earth a million times and forget everything. Your friends. Your name. How to speak. Why you exist. Everything."

"WAITWAITWAITWAIT!" Kasie immediately blabbed forth when she didn't even get a chance to go 'huh?' at Markus' threat. "Markus! I thought we were friends. Gosh darns! Why must you be so meeeaaaan? Plus, why did you pick Veith?! Are you insinuating something because there's nothing between us. We're just friends too! There's no need to be so harsh!"

Of course, he wasn't insinuating anything by picking Veith, having chosen him simply because he was introduced to him in Mythology class. But, he wasn't going to tell Kasie that until he was done counting. ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀

Her desperate flailing worsened when the counting was sped up. No fair! Snickerdoodles. Oh, freaking snickerdoodles. What was she supposed to do? Well, besides touch Markus, but still! Markus didn't look like he was lying about torturing Veith either. She immediately kept trying to shove Markus' arm, but it was to no avail. Nononono! All this panicking was making it difficult for her to think, and in the end, she was reduced to a blubbering mess when her ten seconds were up.
