The Gatekeeper / Zool makes no sense


She asks if he is the keymaster, and getting a 'yes', she lets him in the apartment..

..to do .. nothing?

To have sex, to seduce him by talking about him wanting the body.

What kind of sense does this make? Shouldn't she be focused on the task of opening the portal or whatever, instead of just trying to seduce the man she CLEARLY KNOWS is not the keymaster? Why not throw him out of the apartment?

How does the ritual even work, do they just have to have sex, is that all? Doesn't that mean Rick Moranis' character's body violated Dana's body without her consent?

None of this makes any sense.

"I am supposed to open the portal with the keymaster, but since he won't Fk me, I will just.. go to sleep."

What? Is this the extend of Zool's power? He/she can possess a girl and move chairs telekinetically, grow DEMON ARMS out of chairs, but against Venkman, she can just .. levitate a bit, do a low-voice impression and go to sleep? WHAT?!

Shouldn't it go more like this:

"Ok, now that we're together, let's start the ritual. Hey, why are you not doing your part? You don't seem to be the keymaster. You are an impostor, get the F out!!" *throws Venkman out immediately*

I mean, for it to make ANY SENSE, that is..?

Did you completely miss the part that Zuul wasn't willingly unconscious?

Or are you just that dumb?

All of avortac4's posts are inane shitposts. Just ignore them.

Yeah. That is a big flub on Avortac's part. He somehow missed Peter saying, "I just whacked her up with 300 CCs of Thorazine and she's gonna take a little nap now. But she says she's the gatekeeper."
