You know that we can shut her down by just ignoring her right? She's a self aware reflection of a past life, a living memory. Not an actual person like Ddraig.

Yes, but she's the memory of a total badass. Even diminished as she is compared to her original self, it's entirely possible that she could pull off a bodyjack, and we should not underestimate her.

Anyway,
[X] Talk to him and ask what's wrong.

Could our source have mistaken this guy for a youkai?
 
not mistaken as there have been Witchings...
That and Japanese ghosts are pretty heavily categorized...unless it's a Creeper...fucking hate those things...

The Youkai we're looking for is a ghost. A Hi no Tama specifically. They're the souls of the dead that separated from their body and lead people astray to get them lost.

Ah. And those are considered the Nura clan's responsibility as well?

Apparently. Everybody knows what it is, the witness we talked to didn't have any problem identifying it. Besides, plenty of youkai are ghosts of one type or another.
 
I see you all being super paranoid towards Bright, who until now was nothing but helpful...

And giggle, because I find the situation most hilarious :))

She's an Elder Solar Exalt. That means she's manipulating us. She can't help but do so, just talking to her invites dozens of social attacks. The question is whether or not she's manipulating us to our benefit.

    ----

    While you aren't sure how to behave with a ghost, you can't just leave someone in distress like that.

    "Excuse me." You walk closer. "Why are you crying like that?"

    "Booh...Booh...Because-!" He whips his head around to stare at you with wide eyes. "Wait! You can see me?"

    "Seem like it." You rub your head in embarrassment. "It's my first time seeing a ghost though. But I can't just leave you like that."

    "Oh Heaven yes!" He shoots at and hugs you. What is surprising is that his limbs don't pass through you. "I can finally talk with someone! All the others just ignored me, no matter what I did!"

    "Ghosts are supposed to be invisible." You pat your back to reassure him. "My name is Hyodo Issei. What's yours?"

    "Sniff...I'm Sawabari Shoushouke. I know my name is long, so just call me Shou."

    You nod. "Alright Shou-san. In return you can call me Issei. If I may, why are you here crying? You should have passed on already? Do you have a lingering regret?"

    "Lingering regret?" He step-floats back, eyes alit with some indescribable emotion. "Lingering regret is too weak of a word! I shouldn't have die! No, there is no way that me dying was anything but an error in the world!"

    This manner of speech. It reminds you of someone. Who?

    "I recall it as if it was yesterday." He looks off into the distance, his eyes stopping seeing the present. "I was born in an average, normal family. My father worked hard to sustain both me and mother, so he was rarely home. At the same time many guys I never saw before started coming to pick up mother when she got out. Later I realized she was cheating on father with a new guy every week."

    'Oh. Wow. Okay, what...fuck, what can I say to that?'

    "As a child I was scrawny. My grades were good, but because of my weak looks I got bullied. During the second year of high school I couldn't endure it anymore and I ran away. I left behind everything. For two months I was a hobo, until I arrived at a charity society that let me live there in exchange for minor jobs."

    You stay silent, not wanting to make him clam up.

    "Then, when I was seventeen, a friend introduced me to the world of online videogames." His glasses light up. "World of Magicraft, Lord of the Staffs Online...It was awesome: there it doesn't matter who you are or how you look, there is just your character and the determination behind it. That time, I felt in love."

    Y...eah. Personally, you prefer meeting people face to face and physical contact.

    "And the best part? There are people paying to enjoy better perks of those games, and so there are also people willing to provide those services. I became a recluse, spending all my time playing on those games questing and collecting rare items for those people, and they paid me for that! At the cost of zero social life I managed to acquire a stable source of income that let me buy an house for myself and even a car directly from Germany!"

    He begins crying again. "And then I had an incident the first time I ride on it! Who knew driving is so difficult without a license?!"

    That should be obvious!! Still, a life like that is bound to produce a lot of regrets. "I understand. So, what is preventing you from passing on is-"

    His face lights up in anger. "TWENTY-SEVEN YEARS OF LIFE! AND I DIDN'T GET LAID EVEN ONCE!"

    "I see you didn't-" At that point your brain stop working. "...What?"

    He grabs the street lamp and begins banging his head on it. Without success, as his head passes through it like it was a mirage. "Sixteen Gigabytes of downloaded porno! An entire collection of 'Kiss Me Baby' with every possible fetish from boobs to leather! My master plan of making chicks fall for me with my new car! My first time was supposed to be an orgy with four supermodels!!!"

    "...What?"

    "But nooooo!" By this point Shou-san looks like a raving loon. "That *censure**censure**censure* cat had to traverse the street right that moment! And I like a *censure* idiot steered to avoid it, only to make a full frontal with a camion! I should have just run over that *censure**censure* son of a *censure* cat!"

    But.

    This.

    What the hell is this....?

    [] Write-in.

    What is this I don't even.
     
    Huh. This sounds like a what might have been for Issei had god not smiled upon him.

    Maybe we should pass forward the reality check Issei got?
     
    If you don't know what to do, or are just rolling on the floor laughing, then I achieved my goal :D

    On another note, it's has been a long time since the TvTropes Page was update. Is someone willing to do it?

    -[X] "Look man I don't now what you are going true BUT look on the bright side the world is you oyster and go anywhere you want not mention in this big wide world there has to be at least ONE female ghost out there that you can get with not mention what else could be out there."

    [X] Talk to him about the afterlife, and ponder aloud the definition of "paradise" Suggest to him that what he wants might just be waiting for him on the other side.
     
    I know there are Charms for this. Can we just punch him to the afterlife and leave already?

    ... Also I wonder if we just gained Limit from this.
     
    [X] Calm him down, Commiserate with your fellow Oppai lover and help as much as you can so he can find the path to enlightenment. Suggest that being invisible can help him peek more freely at changing rooms.

    I get the vibe that Issei is currently thinking: "This could have been me had I not Exalted"
    He sheds tears for the poor man.

    How to turn this into a positive outcome?! Quick we might be able to get a Poltergeist Spy/familiar if we can spin this right? Just how visible are ghosts to the supernatural in Dxd? Cause there's no indication of any of them being capable of seeing one.
     
    [X] Tell him that not killing a cat was kind of him, and that if Heaven is anything like Hell, it's probably filled to the brim with smoking hot angels.
     
    [X] Tell him that if he cannot find a female ghost to have sex with (maybe someone with similar problems), then perhaps he can achieve his goals vicariously by watching others have sex?
     
    [X] Pass on the knowledge you have learned to your fellow oppai lover.
