talking to ghosts
Who: Miggy & You??
What: Miguel stays behind to do dead honoring activities
Where: the Pole to start
When: Late October, Early November (Day of the Dead time)
Warnings/Notes: themes of mourning, though it can be lighthearted also
Miguel would be reluctantly absent during the action around Halloween. A strange enough decision, given his first instinct would be to throw himself into the fray as a distraction.
But as of late, he couldn’t hide that something was eating at him. The gloomy spell over his mood seemed more intense than months prior, burning away his patience and making short tempered remarks and the flashing of fangs more easy to let slip. He'd done okay keeping things somewhat under lock, but it was clear now something was definitely wrong.
And so, after some tense, but persuasive conversation just convincing enough to accept staying behind, Miguel finds himself idle on a quieter and lonelier Pole for a few days.

At least, with Miguel’s very blunt way of talking to others, the sparse compliments sprinkled in between have their authentic shine to them.
Dan had most certainly earned his, in his own way. He starts to get up - if the power tools were about to be turned on… well, enhanced senses came with their drawbacks.
Maybe it was time for him to find another task for the altar.

Dan, being married to someone with heightened hearing, anticipates Miguel’s concern. An electric saw would be easier, but he doesn’t want to be rude and drive Miguel off, so he gets the clamp set up and his safety gloves on and starts to use his analog hand saw. There’s still the sound of sawing, but it isn’t the terrible whine of a power tool. It’s an accommodation he’s happy to make without drawing attention to it.

Dan wants him there. For whatever reason. Despite the inconvenience.
He settles down then, for now. Perhaps he can get some painting done, after all.
