On the outskirts of Petalburg, a medium ways into the woods, where the sea breeze doesn't reach; a large, abandoned building—more akin to a concrete jungle gym—attracts locals during the more spooky months. Walking past an influencer type, taking a (pretty sick) photoshoot, and someone spray painting, Nine sits, cross-legged, on a cleaner stretch of concrete and waits for sundown.

All of this, of course, was illegal: trespassing. It, however, wasn't the type of place where authorities (or actually, most people) want to stick around for too long. It isn't that it's stuck in the middle of the woods, and it isn't road too potholed to drive on leading through the thicket. Or maybe it is. But, anyone brave (or naive enough) to stick around knew of the old juvy's reputation—or was in an urban exploring schtick.

Someone starts singing; they brought a whole setup and a mic person. The tall, stripped-bare concrete walls did create hallowing, echoing acoustics. And speaking of, a small group of teenagers with various musical instruments slink in, looking coy, despite their intentions.

Again, although well known, none seem too careful of the rumors of the building they gather in: an old juvenile corrections center, shut down due to its egregious human rights violations. (A couple of unsolved missing persons' cases end here, even.) Rumors of ghosts, in Nine's opinion, usually means a rare ghost-type to catch. And always a skeptic, an academic. It wasn't too long before he ended up here, ghost hunting, of all things.

Exploring old, decrepit places like this piqued Thomas’ interest in many ways: the inherent danger was always a challenge, especially for someone with his pre-existing conditions. Less physically, he enjoyed the solitude, the aura of time bygone, as though the movement of the world had skipped this place and left it tinged with collected energy of everything it had touched but not moved with.

He was also quite fond of the supernatural, especially during these months.

Molly lingers behind him, her perpetual frown an ever-present comportment in his life. If it were up to her he would be at home, laying down, resting. Forever. Sometimes he wondered if she’d rather he be dead.

Helena, meanwhile, was flitting incorporeally in-and-out of walls and ceilings, frightening a pair of teens making out in a dark corner and cackling madly as they fled. Thomas tsk’ed at her meddling, stepped around a mysterious puddle, and pressed on.

The eerie sounds of someone singing a very windchime cover of In A Gadda Da Vida echoed down a corridor. Intrigued, Thomas headed towards the sound-- and almost trips over someone lingering in the near-dark.

“Apologies,” he says, fighting down a wince at the twinge in his bad leg, “I didn’t see you there. On account of you sitting on the floor. In the dark.” He added that last bit for posterity’s sake.

Sunset fast approached and the lilac of the evening was muted between concrete walls.

Thomas raised an eyebrow. “Are you well?”
