Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Death was a far too familiar concept to Lydia Deetz. Between her mother's death when she was younger, the haunted house she loves, her godparent-like ghosts, and her knowledge of various aspects of the Netherworld and the rules, she feels confident that she has a firm understanding of death and the dead.But not all ghosts are the same as those she knows. And thanks to an accident and an aunt she's quickly growing to hate, she'll have the perfect chance to witness these other types of ghosts in Amity Park. Meanwhile, someone is plotting and a certain poltergeist refuses to let go.Written by Bookworm Gal, the story can be found here or here.And while the author claimed there were no plans for a sequel, they weren't quite done with what became the Say It duology. A prequel story, Say It Again, is currently in the works and can be found here or here. This story examines the bond between Lydia and Betelgeuse in the period between the film and the first story. How do they go from disliking/distrusting one another to regarding each other as best friends?Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })A stand-alone spinoff story, Just Say It (found here and here), was written for the BeetleBabes community's Halloween contest on DeviantArt. In this one-shot, set after the events of Say It Thrice, Lydia is celebrating her first Halloween in Amity Park, and her favorite poltergeist helps her carve some jack-o-lanterns.

comment
All Men Are Perverts: Or at least, all teenage boys are, in Betelgeuse's mind. While he's keeping an eye on Lydia's new friends through the mirrors, he's not best pleased at the idea that they might be viewing her the way he himself often views pretty girls.

Heroic RRoD: It isn't wise for Betelgeuse to use the ghost portal in Danny's basement rather than getting out the normal way. In fact, keeping it up too long apparently runs the high risk of him suffering Cessation of Existence.

Ritual Magic
 Say It Thrice / Fan Fic / int_1599db45
comment
Ritual Magic: Seems to be the preferred strategy for dealing with ghosts from the Netherworld. Anyone can use it if they know the right words, have a physical object connected to the ghost in question, and have a strong enough will to overcome the ghost's power. Or an Amplifier Artifact. It is stated that the living can use this method to summon, bind, banish, or exorcise a ghost.

comment
Practical Currency: As Betelgeuse explains it, the Netherworld operates on a barter system. Since its inhabitants don't need things like food and shelter, they instead trade in commodities which they want, like cigarettes and favors. In one episode, we see him exchange a package of chocolate striped cookies for a favor.

comment
Poor Communication Kills: When Danny first asks Betelgeuse who his mortal bride is, the Ghost with the Most finds that Melinda's binding prevents him from saying Lydia's name, so he simply describes her to him. Unfortunately, the description he gives (dark-haired goth girl) sounds a lot like Sam. Danny doesn't approve. It's only when Danny mentions Sam's name does Beej realize there's been a misunderstanding.

Family of Choice: Lydia regards the Maitlands and Betelgeuse as this. She rages at her aunt for assuming custody of her, taking her far away from her treasured "ghostly godparents," and most of all for banishing and nearly exorcising her beloved "Beej." Due to the circumstances at the end of the story, her chosen family expands to also include the Fenton clan, with whom she is living.

Mythology Gag: Just like in Say It Thrice, there are occasionally references to elements of the cartoon. As noted above, the blonde Alpha Bitch character is named Claire. She's not meant to be the same character from the show, however. The longer version of Lydia's incantation makes an appearance here, and it's implied that part of the events of the cartoon, including Lydia's random visits to the Netherworld, occurred during the time between this story and the main one.

Secret Relationship: The platonic version. Lydia and Betelgeuse initially have to keep their growing friendship hidden from everyone, since she knows that neither her parents nor the Maitlands will be at all pleased to know that she's interacting with him (nor will Juno be happy about him interacting with her). Secret Keeper: When she does reveal it to the Maitlands, they reluctantly agree to be this, on the condition that she will tell them immediately if he does anything inappropriate.

Thou Shalt Not Kill
 Say It Thrice / Fan Fic / int_2f94135c
comment
Thou Shalt Not Kill: Turns out Betelgeuse has gotten really good at restricting his hauntings to Amusing Injuries, which is why there were no lasting repercussions from him flinging Charles and Otho off of a staircase, or Maxie and Sarah Dean through a ceiling. Explained further when Betelgeuse assures Danny that he won't kill Aunt Melinda; he dismisses it as "boring and too easy" and that Lydia would never forgive him, but implies that the real problem is that though Juno and the Celestial Bureaucracy allows and even encourages ghosts to scare the living senseless to keep them from breaking the Masquerade, lethal injury is right up there with proving the existence of ghosts as the big no-no, as people murdered by ghosts tend to become really dangerous(not to mention really pissed-off) ghosts themselves — not that Sanduleak really cares. Betelgeuse went "juicing" with him exactly once, thinking he'd found a kindred prankster, only to realize he'd gone on a wilding with Jack the Ripper and sealing him in a well for the next century. Enforcing this rule on such a powerful ghost without being asked is why Juno and her superiors haven't done anything permanent to Betelgeuse.

Embarrassing Nickname: It takes Lydia a while to figure out what nickname to use for Betelgeuse, but when she presents a few possibilities, he vehemently refuses to let her call him "Spooky."

Adult Fear: In the flashback where Melinda performs her binding ritual, it's clear that while Betelgeuse is certainly very angry about what's being done to him, he's also genuinely afraid that Lydia's going to be hurt in the process. "She's off limits!" And later, when he realizes that Sanduleak is after Lydia, his voice drops almost to a terrified whisper.

Getting Crap Past the Radar: Lydia explains that she calls him "Beej" because to call him BG reminds her too much of The Bee Gees. Betelgeuse responds by teasing her that before she knew how to spell his name correctly, she probably thought of him as BJ and that would have reminded her of something else entirely.

Our Ghosts Are Different: Depending on whether the ghost originally formed in the Ghost Zone or in the Netherworld or human world, they will exhibit different traits. These include potential power strength, the variety of available abilities, and even whether or not they are composed of ectoplasm.

If I Can't Have You...: Melinda reacted murderously when the ghost she had a crush on didn't return her affections and didn't even know how she felt. She decided to expand this murderous anger to include all ghosts.

Big Brother Instinct/Papa Wolf: The prequel sets the stage for Betelgeuse to feel this way toward Lydia by the time of the main story. He's puzzled by his own fascination with her, and he knows it's not romantic or sexual in the slightest, but he has to acknowledge that she's already become important to him even if he's not sure why.

comment
Unstoppable Rage: Betelgeuse seems to have a reputation for this, based on the Box Ghost's comments to Danny. The ghosts all know that the Ghost With the Most is coming, that he's searching for his Mortal Bride, and that he's really angry about whatever's keeping him away from her... and they're terrified. And when he sees that Sanduleak is about to rape and murder "my girl," he goes ballistic.

Magic A Is Magic A: Or, as Betelgeuse puts it, Rule 1 is Rule 1. And his biggest rule is that he can only be summoned/banished by using his name three times. There is no other way for him to get in or out. That includes using the ghost portal. Trying anyway isn't a good idea - though for Lydia's sake, he'll risk it.

Driven to Suicide: Hinted to be Sidney Poindexter's cause of death when he remarks that, if he'd ended up in the Netherworld instead of the Ghost Zone, he would have become a civil servant. Betelgeuse actually tried this back when he was alive. In his defense, he was drunk at the time and he didn't actually succeed before he was interrupted.

Minovsky Physics
 Say It Thrice / Fan Fic / int_6d6945da
comment
Minovsky Physics: Ectoplasm. The Ghost Zone and everything in it (especially the ghosts who originate there) are composed of it. Ectoplasm mimics more traditional molecular structures, but are not composed of any recognizable atoms or atomic particles. The structures and forms created by ectoplasm are stable while remaining malleable. The ability for the ectoplasm to mimic and interact with objects from the real world is imperfect (i.e. "phasing" through solid objects, turning invisible), but is effective enough to allow entities from the Ghost Zone to exist outside it. The ability for ghosts to enter the real world, be seen by humans, and affect it without being destroyed is due to the relative stability of the ectoplasm from which they are composed. Destabilization of the ectoplasm takes extreme measures (like excess or loss of energy) and will eventually lead to complete collapse of the structure. The flexibility of ectoplasm and its ability to mimic normal forms of matter is also probably why it is possible for Danny to be half ghost.

In-Series Nickname: Betelgeuse is "The Ghost With the Most." Lydia is also often referred to by ghosts as the "Mortal Bride." They tend to refer to each other by Affectionate Nicknames too, since Betelgeuse's name is used as a summons and he is The Nicknamer. He calls her "Lyds" or "Babes;" she calls him "Beej." Betelgeuse takes to calling Danny "Danny-boy," and calls Juno "June-bug."

Then Sanduleak shows up with murderous intentions and grabs the thing, giving him a power boost and affecting his mind. "From Bad to Worse" is actually the name of the chapter in which this happens. And then Betelgeuse comes in contact with the Gem of Osiris.

"The Reason You Suck" Speech
 Say It Thrice / Fan Fic / int_7d89315b
comment
"The Reason You Suck" Speech: Lydia delivers one to the Fenton parents on their treatment and views concerning ghosts. While they can easily write off her more emotional arguments as being the result of misplaced sympathy, they pay closer attention when she points out that just making assumptions, rather than using the scientific method to determine whether ghosts could be considered people, is bad scientific practice. Reasonable Authority Figure: They have the decency to re-examine their methods and are big enough to admit that she's right. By the end of the story, it's strongly implied that, thanks to discussing the Netherworld with Betelgeuse and Lydia, they have completely reverted to only hunting ghosts who require it.

Apocalypse How: Aunt Melinda's end goal is to cause a Class 0 for ghosts, using a supercharged ghost shield as a city-wide circle for an exorcism. However, as Betelgeuse notes, between a stable portal to the Ghost Zone and the possibility of any open doors to the Netherworld, there's a good possibility of the effect spilling over, upgrading it to an X-5.

Aura Vision: Distinctively different than Danny's Ghost Sense, some ghosts can sense things about other ghosts and supernatural stuff. According to Betelgeuse's narrative, ectoplasm-based ghosts practically have a spotlight on them while humans have faint aura (though the ones who get involved with the supernatural are a little brighter). Apparently Danny's aura, being half-human and half ectoplasm-based ghost, is really distinctive.

Everyone Has Standards: As mentioned above, Betelgeuse didn't realize how young Lydia was during the events of the movie. He is not happy when he finds out what he almost did. And this time, it shows his exact thought process when he realizes the truth. He also doesn't use his power to force women to say "yes" to him. He'll still hit on any woman that catches his eye, but they always have the option to smack him and tell him to get lost.

Noodle Implements/Noodle Incident: Betelgeuse's first attempt to marry a mortal bride involved "possession, goats, torches, an angry mob, near certain doom, a scullery maid, a river, freaky trees, and something about a cursed coin." As in, that's what the mortal wanted him to fix, and Betelgeuse fails to mention how he did it. And the ingrate went and committed suicide during the wedding ceremony instead of holding up her end of the deal.

Acceptable Breaks from Reality: There are four chapters which flashback to Betelgeuse's mortal life during The High Middle Ages. These are not written in the form of English which would have been in use at the time, as that would be almost incomprehensible to modern audiences. The author's note requests that the reader just assume that everything has been translated into something they can understand.

In the flashback portion, Betelgeuse lives in the same area as Peter, William, Agnes, Elinor, Remfrey, Galeren, Agnes, Katelin, Lord Gilbert, Hamund, Ysembert, Derrick, Avelyn, and Sibylla. The time period helps make it more reasonable.

comment
Curiosity Causes Conversion: Betelgeuse can't figure out why Lydia would want to be nice to him, since almost no one ever is; he especially doesn't understand her motives after the almost-wedding. So he decides to stick around and see if he can work out her angle. In the process, he grows genuinely attached.

"When he got through with those two, no one would even think of bothering him or Lydia again." Sanduleak also plans to enact one against Betelgeuse, by once again targeting Lydia, after he escapes from Saturn.

It's only when she's reunited with Betelgeuse that she starts to actually show her feelings again. "I want to go home."

Futureshadowing: Thanks to the flashbacks, this happens a few times. Sanduleak is shown to have a grudge towards Betelgeuse and their first encounter is shown later. Lydia's dislike of her aunt is clear from the first chapter, but it isn't until later in the story that the scene where Aunt Melinda nearly exorcised Betelgeuse is shown. Even Betelgeuse's traits from the film (bug-eating, his skills at exploiting loopholes, his preference for making deals to get what he desires, wearing stripes) are all established long before the flashback to when he was alive. It's widely understood that Betelgeuse rarely feels actual love or loyalty toward anyone; however, once they earn his devotion, they have it completely. At the time of the story, it's pretty much exclusively Lydia (and Juno, somewhat) on the receiving end of his genuine affection, although this later expands to include the Fenton family as well as Sam and Tucker to varying extents. As the flashback reveals, this particular trait was foretold in the stars at the time of his birth.

Then there is Lydia, one of the main characters, and Lydia, the ghost associated with Freakshow. The former was named after the latter because Cathy knew her before she became a ghost and named her daughter after her.

Attempted Rape

comment
He also doesn't like Sanduleak's preferred methods of interacting with the living. Especially since he tried to drag Betelgeuse into it without telling him what he had in mind.

Evil Cannot Comprehend Good
 Say It Thrice / Fan Fic / int_f8e010ce
comment
Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: Whether he's really evil is up for debate, but Betelgeuse definitely doesn't understand altruism - at least, not directed towards him. He can't figure out why Lydia would set him loose for a couple of days when it doesn't benefit her in the least.

Drives Like Crazy: Jack Fenton. Tucker also qualifies, but that's mostly because he doesn't know how to drive yet.

comment
Running Gag: Betelgeuse's tendency to read and write notes in Lydia's journal. She eventually gives up trying to keep him out and they have full conversations in the text. Several chapter summaries are done through this banter. Him referring to Sam as Danny's girlfriend (and them denying it).

The Power of Friendship: When nothing and no one else can reach him, Lydia manages to get through to Betelgeuse.

comment
You Called Me "X"; It Must Be Serious: Betelgeuse ends up calling Lydia by her actual name, instead of "Lyds" or "Babes," when it briefly looks like Sanduleak managed to kill her.
