PHASE III: [ joy isn't exactly an emotion one feels after dying and reviving, no. not to mention that she had seen simon blackquill the day before, and was led to the streets. it was then she got hit by a truck and passed away for a few hours until being recoded again.
she might be code, but the pain is real. and it's still there. so when a ghost decides to make contact with her, there's nothing new to what she's feeling. although she might be slightly more apathetic than usual. someone who's full of emotions acting the complete opposite way than normal? yeah… there's definitely something wrong.
she has complaints to bring up to ceres, and what better way to do that than to go there directly, right? so that's what she does. and because she just doesn't care at all, she just decides to fuck it and walk to the tower from the residential district.
one may notice athena walking about, looking rather lifeless. a girl wearing a lot of yellow shouldn't look so dull, right? ]
PHASE IV: [ ghosts possessing technology a little too close to home, huh? well, try this ai for size.
athena's necklace is now projecting a holographic display of various videos of her dying. this isn't just for her to view, either. she conveniently happens to walk across an electronics shop where there's a lot of televisions on display. these tvs happen to play the same thing that's being projected from her necklace.
there's all kinds of things to see: her getting stabbed; an electric fan blade coming off loose and flying to her neck, chopping her head off; getting trapped in a tanning booth as it malfunctions—woah, is it getting a little too close to final destination in here? sure is.
and there's nothing else for her to do but freeze. just dying once was enough. she doesn't need to witness her own death (or impending death?) over and over. athena, first of all, doesn't have the stomach for these kinds of things (WHY IS SHE EVEN A LAWYER), and secondly, she's still recovering. it's just too much for her to handle right now. ]
Athena is dying!
[ her necklace is even talking over the video! how fun. ]
