GameToons AU: Novisor's New Host (WIP)

The Talk

Back on the Skeld, Player was carrying on as if nothing had happened. Already, he had had an improvement in luck. Sure, he wasn't winning every single game, but he wasn't losing all of them either. To him, this was heaven... that is, until the fourth day after. That was when things took a turn for the worst.

Player was walking to Electrical to do wires. However, when he passed the boxes in Storage, he felt as if something was hovering over him. He whipped around, only to find nobody there. "Hmm...weird," Player muttered. He continued walking, then felt something hovering again. He turned around again, slower this time, only to see that something WAS there. It was a black ghost with no visor, just a mouth with grinning teeth and dripping blood down that smile.

"NOVISOR?!"

"It's been a bit, hasn't it?"

"B-B-BUT- BUT I KILLED YOU!! I SLICED YOU IN HALF, DIDN'T I?!" Player stammered.

"Well...yes...you did. However... I found a way to continue on. Through YOU."

"Through...me? Like, as... your-" Player knew the word, but he wasn't sure if it was real. Should he say it? It made him feel uncomfortable, like finding out that prediction from Mercury's retrograde came true. He gulped, and his voice dropped to a whisper. "Host...?"

"If you were my host, you wouldn't be standing here right now."

This made Player fall silent. With nothing left out of him, Novisor continued explaining.

"You are not a host, but I AM bound to you. Now us two share this weird bean body of yours. And we will-"

"NO!"

"What? I didn't even say anything-"

"I am NOT helping you take over the world!" As soon as the words left Player's mouth, he had a realization. Novisor was BOUND to him. A smile crept up his face. "Wait a minute... I OWN you."

"Wait what?"

"Hey, YEAH! I don't have to take orders from YOU!! You have to obey ME now!"

"That's not how this works-"

"HAHAHA! THIS IS AMAZING!!"

Novisor sighed. Loudly. "NOBODY IS OBEYING ANYONE!! However...I suppose you DO get something..."

"And...what's that?"

Novisor seemed to smile with his words. "You'll find out soon..."

And with that, he disappeared. Player took a moment to recollect himself, and to make sure that he didn't hallucinate the whole thing. He and the ghost who had killed MANY of his friends, and intended to make Player his host, were now BOUND to each other. Player's thoughts spun with dread, yet the worry wasn't too overwhelming. Novisor didn't seem like he wanted to ruin Player's life, but it would be best to not trust him right now. If Player stayed chill, hopefully nothing would happen.

Player saw Veteran walking in from Admin. After what felt like a long second, Player took a deep breath, and walked up to him. "Hey, Veteran? Can I talk to you?"
