#leading to rumors that lilith shouldn't be the bearer
Note
Ghost au ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿ‘€, I mainly just want to yell about Shannon and Avaโ€™s potential relationship dynamics
Let's set the scene:
Shannon has just died. The Halo was removed from her body less than 30 seconds ago. The mercenaries attack and the medic takes the Halo down to the morgue and hides it in Ava. Ava gets resurrected, but the girls regroup faster than they did in the show, and find her before she escapes. They uhhhhhhhhhhhh kill her. Or at least, Lilith kills her and takes the Halo back.
The Halo is stressed, okay? Probably never in history have two of its Bearers been killed in such rapid succession. So if it gets a little upset, a little fucky perhaps, who could blame it? Thus, through some truly biblical Fuckening, Shannon and Ava wake up next to each other on neighboring autopsy tables. Sitting above their own dead bodies.
They're both confused. Shannon is upset. Ava is just processing the fact that she can move again. Neither are in the right headspace for calm conversation or critical thinking. Shannon wants to find the other girls. Ava wants to get as far away from them as possible (since they just killed her. Sheโ€™s 2 for 2 on being murdered by nuns.). She also wants to enjoy her new ghost status and use it to finally experience the world (I'm imagining ghosts in this setting can feel and interact with the world to some degree).
They resolve to go their separate ways but oops, not so fast! Due to Ghost Fuckery, they are unable to stand more than like 15 feet apart at any given time, so if they head in opposite directions, no one's going anywhere. This leads to arguing. Shannon tries very hard to explain how dire her situation is, but she's talking to a scared, defiant teenager who her sisters just killed. Ava kinda shouts that at her during the heat of it, shocking Shannon and bringing the fight to a stalemate.
They try to give each other some space, as much as 15 feet will allow them, and eventually start talking a bit more normally, with Shannon apologizing to Ava and trying to be more tactful in explaining her position. Ava is still skeptical, but she concedes that staying in the morgue is counterproductive to her goal of seeing the world.
So eventually she agrees to go with Shannon, and they set out for Cat's Cradle. Let the ghost buddy cop hijinks ensue!
