Ghost Scene: Kate & Dad

Kate & Derek Bishop

Christmas Eve | Kate’s Room | PG

Kate gets a ghostly visit from her father (NPCed by Foster). Thread in progress.

⚠ TBD / Will Edit

Kate felt like she'd barely had time to sit down and breathe since she'd arrived in San Francisco. She'd been immediately greeted by some psycho elves and had found herself in the middle of a battle with them and some bad Santa in the meantime. Things had been blessedly calm in the meantime and she'd spent the last couple of weeks recovering after getting pretty banged up in the fight. Exactly two weeks later, even the worst of her cuts and bruises were finally starting to fade, although the were still visible.

Kate was half-seated on her bed with a book in her hand when she saw him and she couldn't help wondering if she'd dozed off, because there was no other plausible explanation. Standing there in here room, looking so much like he had when she'd last seen him, was her father. The father she hadn't seen since she was a little girl. The father who had been lost to her forever during the Battle of New York.

She'd attended his funeral. She'd watched them bury him. There was no way he could really be standing there, in the flesh, was there?

Derek Bishop had been dead for a long time. Even he knew that. The last thing he remembered was the attack and then...nothing. Still, he knew there was a reason he was here. A purpose.

And he saw her, sitting on the bed, staring at him. She was so much older, though. His little girl had grown up and it was written on his face how much he missed her, staring, smiling sadly as he stepped closer. "Hello, Sweetheart..." He wanted to run to her, hold her, hug her.

There were tears in Kate's eyes as she hopped off the bed, staring at him as she walked slowly toward him. She didn't know how this was possible, how he could actually be here, so solid and real-looking. She was afraid to blink or speak and she was almost afraid to move, for fear he would just vanish, but something pushed her forward, closer to him.

"Daddy?" she asked in a small, scared voice, like she was just a child again. There was no one else it could be and yet this seemed so impossible.
