The Longest Thread (Misadventures)

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

Everyone doubled over in laughter.

[NameIess]

It's not funny. What good does being a jar do? Almost as bad as being incorporeal.

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

"No it's hilarious. Sequence will probably stick you on a shelf in her museum or something." Everyone had to sit down they were laughing so hard. 

[NameIess]

She will not just stick me on a shelf. I'm far too powerful to be sealed away so easily.

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

"Not if you're an orb."

[NameIess]

I'll still be a Narrator! I could bring unspeakable harm upon any who disrespected me.

[The Wandering Wizard he/him]

Lightseeker whispers some words and a bronze clad statue appears. "Would this work?"

[NameIess]

The statue began screaming in agony before melting slowly in slag.

Apparently not.

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

"Well, I guess that means the orb is your only option..." Everyone said with a grin.

[NameIess]

I'd rather possess you than an orb.

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

"Ha, good luck with that. You'd probably go insane and become the next Witherlord or something."

[NameIess]

Really? That could be fun.

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

"That was mostly sarcasm. Your Narrative energy will probably collapse in on itself as it comes into contact with the Red Third of a Sequence."

[NameIess]

Even better!

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

Everyone stared at the empty space where Nameless's ghost supposedly was blankly. "Even then it's not like I'll just let you possess me."

[NameIess]

Oh yeah? And how would you stop me?

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

"I don't know. I'll figure it out though."

[NameIess]

I'm sure you would. Definitely. It's not like I'm a nigh-omnipotent Narrator or anything.

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

"Well, I came from a copy of what is now a Narrator." Everyone said triumphantly.

[NameIess]

Yes, so you're part of a Narrator. A very odd and destructive part. Which is why you'd be the perfect host. You'd be powerful enough to contain me, and I do believe your unique powers would have quite an... interesting effect when combined with my own.

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

Everyone blinked a few times. "... Listen, I can make you a kind of wax-figure doll thing that will have enough of my power in it to contain your essence, and then I can give you a serving of my power from that device Calano made me." They sounded almost... scared. "Deal?"

[NameIess]

No deal.

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

Everyone's face grew pale and they vanished in a swirl of black mist.

[NameIess]

Oh please. I don't have physical form, or any of the restrictions that come with it. You think you can run?

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

Everyone gasped at their new location. "Please, I can give you two- no, three servings of power, I can make the host into whatever you want-" They immediately shrouded themself in dense black fog, which supposedly was able to shield one from incorporeal presences.
