~~Work Ethic~~
Box Ghost's POV words: 214
Every day was the same routine. I would show up, BEWARE!, Phantom would fight me (ok, he would zap me once, most of the time), I got sucked into the thermos, I got back the Ghost Zone, I find my way out of the Ghost Zone (How? Trade secret), repeat the routine tomorrow. I had to admire his work ethic. Every day, anytime, any weather Phantom would show up, put me in the thermos and go back to doing whatever it was he was doing. Catch and release, catch and release, no matter how threatening (Beware!) the ghost was, Phantom always let them go. There were so many times that Phantom could have squished Skulker's tiny form or blasted a hole through Walker's head, but chose not to.
Even though no ghost took me seriously and I wasn't even considered a threat by the humans of Amity Park, Phantom captured me the same way he captured the more powerful ghosts. It made me feel like I was 'just' dangerous enough to deserve capture. That's why I showed up every day, because even by a tiny amount, Phantom took me seriously.
"Beware! I am the Box Ghost!"
"Helllloooo misplaced aggression," Phantom smirked deviously.
Then again… I have considered cutting it down to once a week.
