Sure, [ peter agrees — it's a loose, easy agreement, and before turning to head towards the square, he points out over the water, at the lighthouse. ] Thereβs an intro guide on your tablet, [ which heβs going to assume she hasnβt had a great deal of time to read and let the information sink in, not with the ferry issue, and the whole being a walking, talking hair- and tumble dryer combo. ] Itβs not totally inaccessible, but itβs pretty difficult and dangerous to reach. The lighthouse keeper isβ [ his gaze flickers back to and over hermione for a second, then: ] Robin.
[ a kid is what he wants to say, but there's no easy way to lead on from that, to say: apparently, she was seventeen when she died and came to beacon. she's been here for twenty years, so she's technically closer to forty, but she still sounds like she's in high school and yes, she controls our fate.
(they can come back to that.)
the walk into the square doesn't take long and there's not a lot to see on the way - the bonfire's more or less the central point, with the rest of the town (quote unquote, loose definition) spilling out from there. they pass the church first (non-denominational, by the way, he'll say, with an impenetrable trapdoor from which anyone who (re)dies in beacon will emerge once they've been revived. it's morbid, it's creepy, but it is a super creepy death town, so what were they expecting?)
after the church is the post office and the general store — bothe former is manned by a spirit (who like shiny things, peter will explain with a shrug, before adding that the spirits communicate musically, and ocarinas can be found in the store if hermione wants to learn — and despite its name, the latter isn't so much a store as a storage hub of groceries and supplies.
in other words: no payment necessary, which would be way more refreshing if it wasn't a creepy death town.)
finally, before they reach the invincible, peter will point out the town hall: not to emphasise the creepy thing too much (but it really is, okay, it really is), he'll skirt around the subject of the super weird and not at all ominous busts that line the walls of the town hall and instead mention that it holds the current history of beacon. no, not the history, just the current history, of the current residents, and yes, did he mention beacon's actually kind of unsettling? sorry, hermione. ]
—There's a bridge just past the bonfire, which leads into the village. It has a [ he holds up a finger ] library, [ second finger: ] a gym, [ third finger ] a park, and an ice cream stand.
