Very Bland Goings On

Who: Peter, etc
When: Late June, early July
What: Very little

 

Peter has been behaving exceptionally well.

 

For Peter, at any rate.


There have been no tantrums, no attempts at violence, no petty theft, almost no name-calling.
 

He's even taking an admittedly token attempt at doing his job in janitorial, running a cloth over common room tables and even late one night scrupulously shining every doorknob on Decks Five, Four, and Three. Very early each morning, he visits the dining room and straightens the chairs, which doesn't need doing but he's decided that's his job.

 

And anyone he passes gets an overly cheerful 'Hello!' Which is probably jarring, coming from the two-faced spectral child-shaped wraith he's still stuck as. That could be any hour of the day or night - he hasn't bothered sleeping since he came out of his coma.

Blanky is lost enough in thought that the greeting makes him jump a little. "Hello. You're Peter, right?"

He remembers Peter being more sullen, but he's not going to mention it. He also remember Peter looking more solid.

"No," he says, "I'm in the Navy. We fight pirates."

"There's not as many in the time I came from." Blanky bends a little, to be closer to Peter's height. "Perhaps we managed, after all."

"That's very brave of you," he says, "are you the only one? Or do you have allies?"

Blanky would hug him, but he's not sure Peter wants that. "How terrible. One always needs allies in a fight."

"Of course they were," he says, "but don't allies help?"

As someone who is always in the kitchens very early in the mornings, Sebastian, when Peter first started his self-appointed chair-straightening job, kept a very close eye on him - never confronting him; just assuming the intention was sabotage. But with time it's become clear that Peter wants to help, and, well. Even if his efforts aren't strictly needed, Sebastian can appreciate the thought, not to mention it's a nice break from all the people wrecking havoc in the kitchen and dining hall.

"Thank you as always, Peter", he says in passing as he walks into the dining hall to wipe the tables.

"So they do", Sebastian agrees, with complete sincerity. Is perfectly aligned chairs the most important thing in the world? Not at all. Sebastian still values perfectly aligned chairs.

"You have been doing an excellent job at this for some time now. Would you like to learn something more challenging?"

Deck 5

Hanna has taken to wandering late at night since there isn't anything really to do and he's used to being out and about. Taking a page out of his Zombie partner's book, he's just walking with no destination or goal in mind, hands in his pockets, though coming down the stairs from his room to level 5, he's a little surprised to see a small spirit of some kind just polishing door knobs.

Tread carefully. "Those look fantastic, you planning on doing the whole floor?" He starts, not wanting to spook the spook, but he is a little curious. Even if ghosts are bad for his health this should be fine.

"Oh, gotcha. Well, you're doing a good job." He puts his hands in his pockets as he moves a little closer down the hall.

"I'm Hanna by the way," He's not going to try and offer a hand to shake, but he does smile, "What's your name?"

It is probably jarring for like... most people. But Edwin is not so much 'most people' when it comes to things like two-faced spectral anythings.

It's also the middle of the night, a time he's used to having mostly to himself and/or John, but here is Peter, polishing doorknobs. Edwin watches him for a minute, head canted slightly, before he says, "Why the doorknobs?"
