sounds good, thanks.

maybe somewhere pretty close to my place? i know that's more inconvenient for you but otherwise he'll probably just show up while i'm walking wherever

i'm okay.

[ He's not, of course, but he isn't going to say that. ]

he couldn't even if he wanted to
he's barely strong enough to knock over some papers

[ Which of course only means that the ghost can't harm him physically. Psychologically has been another matter entirely. ]

[scholiast]

It's okay, I can kind of teleport? So location isn't an issue for me. Could be right at your front door if you'd like.

(Like a... ward delivery service haha.

Lucretia can sense his discomfort with the topic of Eobard and opts to keep it simple, no extra pushing.)

Well, that's good to know at least.

[franciscoramon]

if you teleport here to ward me every morning, i'll make you breakfast as repayment.

[ He knows she's not offering because she expects something in return, but... ]

least i can do.
and i make a pretty mean breakfast burrito.

yeah. kind of the one silver lining in this whole shitshow.

[scholiast]

Okay. You sure?

(Honestly, Lucretia's not gonna pass that up even though she wasn't expecting anything in return because she can't cook worth a dime and not living with Taako and Lup any more is Suffering)

I'll take you up on that, then. Thanks Cisco.

Yeah, I'm... honestly pretty over it, and it's only just started.

[franciscoramon]

i should be the one saying thanks
breakfast's easy. magic anti-ghost-stalker wards aren't.

i am very extremely fucking over it
i don't know what i'm gonna do if this ghost stuff keeps going past the end of the month

[ He'd been assured by various people that the borders between the living and dead would be back to their usual strength in a few weeks, but Cisco's not exactly the best at taking people's word for it. ]

[scholiast]

Well, I mean
It's just a sixth-level spell with a couple tweaks, it should be fine.

(It's half wanting to reassure him that he isn't asking the world of her or anything, and half a brag.)

Huh. I didn't think about that.
Well, fingers crossed that it doesn't extend past the month. Nobody deserves to live with that hanging over them all the time.
