My most favorite SxF doujinshi
Pixiv recommended this doujinshi on my rec list again. It reminds me that there is an English translation somewhere. I thought it was on tumblr and searched high and low for it for naught.
In fact, after a bit google-fu on duckduckgo, the translation was from reddit, user Kirosh has done a good job of making a clean and easy to read translation here. If you have a reddit account, please send them some thanks. (and one for me too, because I don't use reddit)
Darn, the more I look at this beautiful masterpiece of art, the more I fall in love with Twiyor 馃槶

Rebirths
(WORLDBUILDING FOR VITRIOL AU ONLY)
To continue off from the general ghost lore and type categories, there are another subset to go over: rebirths.
Rebirths are the results of a ghost's type category being changed into another, typically by force. This phenomenon turned taboo originated from essentially the ghost version of graverobbing.
When a ghost ceases to exist (departs/departure), their essence is returned to the Ghost Zone. During the departure, their damaged core releases the base properties of what makes up the ghost, one of them being the type category. It's basically the structure of their DNA. It is in this brief time window that others could harvest the base properties being released and keep them long enough to be tangible/stable.
Departure is something many ghosts are respectful about. A natural ghost has reached the end of their existence; a limbo ghost is experiencing their second and final death. Ghosts tend to say their last goodbyes or leave the departing ghost alone to have their last moments be peaceful. Harvesting base properties from departing ghosts is seen as being disrespectful, however, that didn't stop the many ghosts that did so out of curiosity.
The rebirth process phenomenon was prominent during the early Primary Era, when the Ghost Zone was known as the Abstract World and when type categories were established. Type categories are formed alongside the ghost, both natural and limbo. There was no possible way for a ghost to change their type categories until curiosity got the best in many and ghosts began experimenting on their own. Using the base properties released from departing forms, ghosts would infuse these properties into materials in order for them to not return to the Ghost Zone. From there, these materials (typically in metal form) would be converted into weapons or other tools. Ghosts discovered that in order to undergo the rebirth process, one must force these converted tools into their core for the properties to be absorbed, whether having an open wound that leads to the core or forcefully creating one.
However, the end result varied from many ghosts ending up in departure, as it was all trial and error. Many tried different type category properties that overwhelmed the core into failure, or some ghosts didn't survive after a tool was stabbed into their center. Afterwards, the desired result came down to using the same type category properties from various departing ghosts. The rebirth process is a painful one and it led to many rebirths suffering from the trauma of it, especially when the process was permanent. Those researching this phenomenon would turn down the opportunity while others would continue out of cruelty.
The rebirth phenomenon quickly died down as soon as the ghost king at the time became aware of it, forbidding the process to ever be performed. Many ghosts would find any material infused with core properties and seal them away. There were precautions taken for fabricators and anyone creating weapons to always check the materials/metals they use. Rebirths who suffered from the process were seen as something pitiful or some sort of abomination. It turned into a taboo that even after the dismantling of the law system (King Pariah's defeat), these precautions were still practiced throughout future eras.
In later eras like the Tertiary Era, rebirths are rare and are typically results of an accident. Many rebirths would enter rehabilitation areas to process the trauma and heal, while others try to move on and get used to their new forms. They've become a part of the Ghost Zone just like any other ghost.
Features of their previous type categories would carry over to the rebirth form, and their cores would store some of the previous properties into memory. Offspring with rebirth parents will typically carry the traits of their parents' original type category pre-rebirth as a result.
