"Something I'd want to have my soul stuck in, of course."

"Uh-huh."

She giggles. "It is actually important. You can't stick someone in something they don't identify with, at some level or another."

"Well, all I have right now is a water bottle."

"Not something I could easily be, I don't think."

"You'll have to give me some clues, then."

Hum. "Something pretty, but not in a flower sort of way - I guess unless it's a very dangerous flower."

"Dangerously shiny. I'll keep an eye out."

She laughs. "You know me already."

"I guess. Anything else I need to prepare."

Hum. "Some things."

She can provide Ellie with a shopping list for ritual components. (Fortunately, all the ones the ghost thinks are rare or difficult to get, Ellie recognizes as things the local crystals-and-hippie-stuff shop sells. Either that or the grocery store.)

"Cool. It'll probably take me a couple days to come up with everything."

"Will you come back before then?"

"In theory, no reason why not."

"I'd like you to."

"You can sleep here. There's no dust."

"I didn't bring what I'd need to spend the night."

"What else do you need?"

"Toothbrush. Change of clothes. Breakfast."

"There's clothes here..."

"But you probably don't want my toiletries."

"Thanks for offering, but no."

Nod. "...I'm not going to try to stop you from leaving."

"That does make me more willing to come back."

"I'll never trap you somewhere. - Not on purpose. I wasn't - awake, earlier, when the door got stuck."

"I'll try not to do it on accident."

"Great."

"I should get going soon, then."

...Nod.

"Okay."

"I'll be awake when you're back."
