I've been receiving many fan letters from you guys, asking for more information about me and my best friend Hinkly the ghost.
Well, since everything else is so stressful right now with the ally ghosts and trying to figure out how to stop the apocalypse... I could use a break. So I will tell you guys more about me now.
When I was 3 years old, just a little toddler who liked to go on walks in the woods with her parents, I met Hinkly the ghost.
He was also 3 years old, and looked exactly like a chubby adorable blonde baby, only he was floating and translucent.
By this time in my life, I had been seeing ghosts for as long as I could remember, which to be fair, wasn't long. So, I wasn't freaked out to see Hinkly just floating there, when I see ghosts all around me all the time.
I was a silent kid, at least with other humans. My mom said she would find me "babbling with myself" a lot as a kid. In reality, that was me talking to ghosts. I have always been an odd one. I feel really awkward with people, but I find it easy to communicate with ghosts.
Anyways, so as a 3 year old in the woods with my parents, I remember waving to Hinkly, and smiling as he waved back. My parents didn't pay much mind to this, since I had always been an odd baby, and I barely ever talked.
We left the woods after our walk that day... and Hinkly followed.
There hasn't been a day since that I've been without Hinkly.
When I asked him why he hung around me, the best I've ever gotten from him is "I wanted a friend. I felt like you were it."
Hinkly is a kind and compassionate, and awfully sassy ghost who gets his fun from either having stupid silly little arguments with me, interrupting me, or just floating next to me and being a kind presence when I'm sad or hurt.
When I was about 10, I finally told my parents about how I could talk to ghosts. I'm sure you can imagine their response...
They got all worried and started sending me to all these therapists.
Thankfully however, when I was 13 years old, I was able to save them from a really scary encounter they had with some of our particularly angry ancestor ghosts, and since then, they believed me.
To this day I have no idea why I have the ability to talk to ghosts when no one (at least as far as I know) other than me has that ability. But for the most part, at least until recently... I was happy to have this special skill.
I've never seen the world in the same way as everyone else. But, I wouldn't want to.
