83 [Video]

Hey, Adstringendum. I've got a question.

[Rei is sitting in a chair, in Castiel's impromptu study, with a worn book in her hands. An anthology of ghost stories. And, because of simple curiosity:]

Do you believe in ghosts?

[Scientists? What scientists? Fran is going to handle that part.]

Kind of interesting -- the Greek myths were more interesting than the ghost stories, but I couldn't resist.

Hmm..[Ami held her chin in thought, trying to remember what she knew of Western paranormal lore.]

The Greek myths tend to have more structure to them, at least as far as characterization goes, it seems.

[Ami knew her fair share of Greek mythology, if for anything, to better understand Plato, Socrates, and Aristotle.]

And American ghost stories seem to lack the background to make their ghost stories all that believable. [If you can believe ghost stories at all, really.]

I've been reading a lot of them thanks to the Animus.

[She's been trying to pin down names. Hrgh.]

And these ghost stories are just terrible.

Just ghost stories in general, Rei-chan, or American ones?

Any of them that are based around the idea of ghosts being scary.

[Rei rolls her eyes.]

They really aren't. It's a stupid basis for a story.

[Nervous smile.] Not to sound trite, but people fear that which they don't understand.
