[Network] An Inquiry into Bargaining

[Hanako didn’t really want to post this, but after confirmation that he couldn’t promise a memory to the Ferryman in exchange for Yashiro coming back, he at least figures he should get a wider perspective.]

Has anyone actually had any success bargaining with the Ferryman?

[Yes, that specific term, as opposed to ‘getting something from them,’ though it’s almost the same thing.

(Hanako has skipped denial and is now in the Bargaining stage of grief.)]

I think you're dead wrong in that sense. Not the 'letting down gently' bit but anyone having interest in me. Last time I tried to ask someone out the reply way 'We should invite my boyfriend too!' and it ended up as a group activity. I'm sure there's a much, much better exlanation- like the Ferryman knowing I'm not trusting them and making me pay for that.

[Is he serious Is he not? Kel would probably lose a lot of his cool should he spot Jay instead of Basil in the mist, though.]

I GUESS. But hey me having 'bad thoughts' isn't like 'oh, Kel acted on them', right? It's not like I followed my gluttony and actually bought the full shelf of discount whipped cream bottles and emptied them in my mouth in a single sitting.

You truly are a weird guy...
