Halliwell Manor has been empty for several years. The layer of dust that has accumulated on the furniture is unpleasantly thick. There are cobwebs in every corner, waiting to spring themselves on an unsuspecting visitor. The rooms smell musty, like a waterlogged library. Though the garden shows signs of maintenance, the interior is oppressively lifeless. Without people to fill it, the house has become a shadow of its former self. Underneath all of that, the place is the same as the sisters remember. Halliwell Manor looks like home.

"Okay, and the less contact they have with you, the better. Unless, Theo objects?"
"Okay, I'm going to give you lessons in pretending to be Good."
"I've had to give the lecture before. I've never met a demon that could pull it off without practice."

"He wasn't that bad before. Granted, I'm probably the last person that should be consulted on the matter."
"I might need help finding a spell. I can't touch the Book."
"It's also not great with people from averted timelines. I'm pretty sure if the Halliwell Book of Shadows and I fight over whether I exist or not, I lose."
She finds one, and Warren elects to read over her shoulder.
"I should be able to cast it. I've tried spells I remember, and they worked."

"And you're confident that you won't turn into antimatter and explode?"
