Galantros sighed as he scrubbed behind his neck and where his ears would be.
GL: "Tormentors, the whole lot of you. No such thing as a private bath anymore... And no, I'm not really a kid anymore. I just technically turned into a young adult about twenty years ago..."
He blinked confused when Veni called for Rosemary. And then yelled for Jacob.
GL: "What's going on?"
- - - - -
Jacob entered the bathing area, hand over his eyes. He asked if they were decent, and once Rosemary put on a towel, Veni told him to open his damn eyes. The old lady spirit was too busy trying to grope Veni's behind the entire time to notice the necromancer had entered the room, which made for an amusing scene that confused Rosemary, wondering what her husband was trying to swim away from.
Old spirit: "C'mon you sexy looking thing! I'm a baker, and I wanna knead those hot buns! HAHAHA!"
Jacob just sort of stared for a moment, in shock.
Jacob: "Veni, you can see that old woman?"
Veni: "YES!"
Jacob: "...Great, since you two feed off of me, he must've gained my abillity to sense and interact with spirits."
Old spirit: "HOT BUNS! HOT BUNS! BUTTER UP THOSE HOT BUNS!"
Jacob muttered some words, and suddenly the spirit became visible to even Rosemary.
Jacob: "*Ahem* "SPIRIT! Stay where you are!"
Old lady: "Oh damn, not you... I've been trying to stay away from you ever since you came here!"
Jacob: "Apparently. From here on out, you will leave this man alone! You will give him his privacy and his peace of mind!"
Old lady: "Oh no! NO! Pleaaase! He's such an eyefull!"
Jacob: "You will obey spirit! Now!"
Muttering, the ghost vanished, flying through a wall, muttering swears about necromancers.

GL: "Well, bathing's supposed to be a personal thing >>; Preferrably in nice, hot lava... Uhmm.. That's okay, I can get my own back.. Uhmm... See?"
With a bit of effort, Galantos managed to make his wings grab a washcloth and start scrubbing his backside. It probably didn't notice that he seemed to be trying to wash up as quickly as possible, feeling as uncomfortable as he did... His aura started to leak out those feelings.
GL: "Perverted ghosts? .... creepy..."
He couldn't help but cover himself a bit more with his wings while looking around
- - - - -
Jacob: "I wouldn't let your imagine run too wild. When you can't interact with a spirit, they normally can't do much other than watch, creepy as it is. Hmm, this could pose a problem."
He glanced around the general area of the baths for a moment, looking for something that wasn't there. Jacob then began to chant, kneeling down, and drawing symbols in the floor with his fingers. There was a bit of electricity in the air, and that was it.
Jacob: "There... a basic spell to keep spirits from intruding for a short while you all bathe..."

GL winced at her remark, and his shoulders sagged when he realized how upset he made Black. All because of his own hang ups and shyness. It wasn't even exactly his society's fault, as Limbo had a number of cultures that had things such as shared baths. He was just the odd one in that way... ever since he had hit puberty apparently, he'd been worried about almost any act of his being seen as perverted, despite almost having not a perverted bone in his body (figuratively speaking). And now that he was half - incubus, it just made his head swarm more with it.
...He felt bad, to sum it all up. Real bad. His wings unfolded and he opened a small portal, reaching in and pulling out several toys that were apparently from his own bathroom. He tossed what looked like a giggly-goofy octopus with a bowler hat and monocle over in front of Black, the squeaky toy gently splashing to a stop.
GL: "I'm sorry, I'm just all weird when it's a public bath I guess... do you still want to play?"
He should calm down, he told himself. He's wearing underwear anyway. It's like wearing swimming trunks in a pool.
- - - - -
Jacob: "Well, as disturbing as it may be, in more heavily populated worlds, there's usually a 90% chance you'll have spirits watching you at any given time."
When Veni invited Jacob to bathe with him, the necromancer's eyes just sort of widened, and a faint blush came over his features. The man was actually a bit dirty and scruffy from the tumble he unknowingly took from Heegh the other day, but much like Galantros, he had hang ups about public bathing. The immediate, uncontrolled thought of "No thanks, I don't think I'm gay" came to his head as he gave his answer.
Jacob: "Uhm... Thanks for the offer, really, but I need to go take care of the dishes I left in the main room. I'll just uh... catch a shower a little later."

GL just nodded when Black commented on Jacob's anger. When Black started to hurry up and get clean, he found himself doing the same, basically dunking himself under water to rinse off. He quietly and meekly excused him self, wrapped in a towel and a bathrobe as he went off to his office, where he kept some spare outfits from when he used to turn into a out of control demon.
Meanwhile, Jacob stormed into the main room, and grabbed at one of the dishes. It instantly shattered in his hand, sending glass fragments flying. He was momentarily shocked out of his temper for a brief moment. He tried to grab another.
*SHATTER*
Jacob: "What the HELL!?"
Gingerly, he picked up another plate.... for a moment, things seemed fine, so he relaxed a little... and then hairline cracks spread like spiderwebs on it... gritting his teeth, he shouted and slammed it on the ground.
Jacob: "WHAT IN THE FLYING FUC-"
- - - - -
Galantros bumped his head against the small closet in his office while getting dressed into a fresh set of clothes.
GL: "My God, that was the loudest obscenity I've ever heard"
- - - - -
Opting to use his magic to move the dishes into the sink, and clean up the shattered the glass, the necromancer stomped his way outside, slamming the door.
*WHAM, CRASH* The door shattered and fell apart, falling to the floor.
Jacob: "DAMN IT ALL TO HELL!"

Jacob had been in the middle of pummeling what looked like a large stone figure with his fists and knife when Veni appeared. Large chunks would fly off the thing, before melding back onto the souless puppet. He stopped, acknowledging Veni, but then continued to beat the ever loving crap out of his creation.
Jacob: "Yeah... the dishes frustrated me, and the door moreso."
Jacob had to actually pause for a moment to think about the subject when Veni brought up what traits would be shared amongst them. He picked up throwing blows at the immobile statue again.
Jacob: "Yes... I do have to wonder what I'd adapt from you... and what Rosemary would adapt from me. I have a feeling though that this inhuman strangth is going to prove extremely frustrating for a while, though..."
A few swift and powerful movements, and the stone humanoid suddenly had holes punched in it's chest, and it's head sliced off from Jacob's dagger, the rocky sphere hitting the ground with a loud thud. Taking a deep breath, the necromancer seemed to be calmer as he let his creation crumble into tiny bits of rock and dirt. Physical exertion seemed to do the trick for him. He then studied Veni for a moment.
Jacob: "So, how do you feel? You look okay now."
- - - - -
Once Daphne's room, there was silence for a little while, now that Jacob had finished swearing at the top of his lungs. After a little while though, there was a weird "Boing!" sound. It was soft and quiet though.
*Boing*
*Boing*
Something then bumped at the foot of her bed. *Boing* *Thump* *Squeak!* Just as she went to look to see what was making that strange noise, a pink, translucent blob jumped up on her bed.
*Boing*
The creature was strange, with bright black eyes, and a cute little smile. It's body was vaguely see through, and rubbery on the outside when she went to touch it, though on the inside it seemed like it was made of some sort of goo, jelly, or slime.... Actually, inside of it, there was a familar, blue-colored shape.
Inky: "Wheeeeee! I'm riding the digestion tract!"
The poring, (For that was what the pink blob was called), burped, and just smiled in that seemingly semi-spaced out but cute manner.
