[Community Outreach]

On the 16th there's going to be a St. Patrick's Day festival for families at the community center in town - they need help with all sorts of things like set-up, running concessions, painting faces, running games, and a bit of babysitting, too. Hopefully at least some of that sounds like fun; you can let me know if you prefer anything in particular! And your kid interaction can be as much or as little as you want, promise.

[Flint]

Hey. What're your plans for this Saturday?

[Francesca]

Do you believe in ghosts? I mean, separate from whatever is going on with the Shadow World.

Yeah, that's sort of where I am. With all this Ouija board stuff I'm just thinking about it.

Oh, and Community Outreach is helping at that St. Patrick's Day party next Saturday, if you want to come.

My dad never wanted to let me summon demons in the living room. So I wasn't allowed to have one.

Ah, really? I haven't seen my babies in a while!

Ces/Scout

[star_boy]

I can't imagine my parents would even let a Ouija board in the house, either. [...] Adam's squad found one in the Shadow World, if you didn't hear. And I guess we might mess with it, a bit.

Really - I'm sure they'd love to see you. And Pearl would like the company too.

Ces/Scout

[thebadkind]

Don't summon any demons, honey. That's super frowned upon. Or at least don't summon any demons without me. So I can make excuses to your mom for you.

Oh, well in that case. Like you have to twist my arm.

Ces/Scout

[star_boy]

I promise we'll be real careful and won't be summoning anything. [...] I'm a little worried about what the board could hold, but I guess when they were playing with it at the planetarium it was fine.

[...]

You should definitely talk to her about it.

Ces/Scout

[thebadkind]

Okay, honey. I'll vouch for you. Even if you end up with a soul-eating passenger. [...] It could just be nothing at all?

Oh! Does she want to twist my arm?

Ces/Scout

[star_boy]

Mm, going to hope to avoid the soul-eating passenger. And it very well could be nothing at all. Other things that have come back from the Shadow World have been uninteresting.

Something like that, I'm sure.

Ces/Scout

[thebadkind]

Fingers crossed for something super uneventful, then. Just regular old hauntings.

I'm not against a little arm-twisting.

Ces/Scout

[star_boy]

I feel like we could handle a regular old haunting. [...] Although Adam and Atticus started talking about who was most likely to get possessed.

I'm not going to tell her that, you have to do your own flirting.

Ces/Scout

[thebadkind]

Oh, who got their vote?

Aw, but honey. What's the fun in that? I'd flirt for you if you wanted.

Ces/Scout

[star_boy]

I think they at least settled on 'not a Senior Sword.'

I'm very bad at flirting, you shouldn't outsource to me. And that's a very generous offer.

Ces/Scout

[thebadkind]

I think they're maybe a little biased on that one.

I don't know about that. The having a super cute boyfriend who thinks you're super cute thing makes me think otherwise.

Ces/Scout

[star_boy]

Just a little. For the record, I don't think you'd be easily possessed.

Still not entirely sure how that happened.

Ces/Scout

[thebadkind]

I don't know, I think it's very welcoming in here.

Don't make me start complimenting you, honeybunny. I might not stop.

Ces/Scout

[star_boy]

I feel like something evil couldn't exist in you.

Lord, I definitely don't want that.

Ces/Scout

[thebadkind]

We'd be real fast friends, I think. Maybe they weren't strictly evil, just cranky.

Careful. It'd be super easy to do.

Ces/Scout

[star_boy]

Alright, I could see this happening with a cranky-but-not-evil spirit.

Are you talking to Pearl now?

Ces/Scout

[thebadkind]

I'm sure we could work something out!

Maybe. [...] Want me to say hi?

Ces/Scout

[star_boy]

I'm going to just hope you don't need to.

Yeah, please say hi for me.
