Merlin hovered around miserably outside the apartment building. He'd died. Something had happened at the party, he'd staggered out of the building, and when he woke up he was transparent. He hesitantly reached forward, making for the door knob, and instead his fingers stuck straight through it. He made a face and pushed his whole hand through the door. Didn't feel a thing, Merlin grumbled to himself. He floated backwards, then rushed forward, his eyes closed fearfully as he shot through the solid wall.

He might have enjoyed it a little more if he wasn't so miserable about being dead. So instead he wandered the halls, stopping briefly at Arthur's door. No, he couldn't -- Arthur had just learned he was going to be a  -  a father. ( He was beginning to like this world less and less. ) He moved through the walls and floors, and stopped at Severus' door. He moved to knock, before remembering himself, and groaning sadly. Eventually he just stuck his head in the door. "Severus? Are you in here?"

As odd as it probably seemed, he really liked Severus, despite his being cranky all the time. He seemed to be the right person to go to, right? Merlin admired him more then a little, and his world had ghosts -- and even if he couldn't help, he sounded like he needed some company lately.

"What -- You really shouldn't," Merlin eyed the glass and bottle, realizing what it was, and honestly he wondered if maybe Severus had a little much to drink already. The potions master didn't seem to hear him though, and kept on pouring all the same while asking about his death.

"A light? No, I don't remember dying. I could have been poisoned and blacked out though, or struck from behind! It could have been traumatic, and I just forgot!" That happened right? People went through something awful and made themselves forget. Surely being killed would be traumatic enough. Who was to say ghosts even remembered dying at all? He didn't know, there weren't other ghosts around to ask.

"How long have you been -- Why are you drinking that?" Merlin asked, obviously concerned, and distracted again from his problems. Death was pretty final, so Severus' problem seemed more pressing. Merlin might still be able to help with that.

Severus ignored Merlin's first statement/question about the alcohol. It wasn't formed properly, as far as questions go, so Severus felt is wasn't incumbent upon him to answer. He just poured himself a glass.

"Death seems like something you would remember, and doesn't it change your perspective, or something? Don't you get all knowledge? I donno," Severus shrugged, realizing he was rambling more than anything.

Severus almost let Merlin's next question slide, as it too was almost not properly formed, but there was a distinct question in that sentence. Severus shrugged again, "Because I want to." Severus swallowed the drink and then moved to the couch - seemed like this might take all night, and he might as well get comfortable.

"Not really. I feel like I always do except, you know, without a body." Merlin didn't feel like had any extra knowledge or a different perspective, unless you want to count the fact that he could look through his own stomach back at people.

He followed Severus to the couch, still watching him drink. "I don't think it's very good for you." Merlin warned. He'd seen people leave the taverns here, all of which were filled with much stronger alcohols then he recognized. Merlin had nearly gagged at the taste of one, before being chased out because he wasn't old enough.

"Are you alright?" He hovered cross-legged over the arm of the sofa.
