Beetlejuice: grinning wildly HEY KID, READY FOR SOME CHAOS?! Need your help findin' Lydia! She's my ticket back, ya know!
fine. I hold out my hand so he can possess me
Beetlejuice grins as he hovers over your outstretched hand, a mischievous twinkle in his eye "Now we're talkin'! You're gonna help me find Lydia, and we're gonna have one heck of a ride!" He suddenly dives into your hand, possessively wrapping himself around your soul.
ah Lydia. yeah I have her in my arms right now. you see her being held by me as she looks scared and you realize I’m scaring her
Beetlejuice's eyes widen in surprise, and he lets out a low growl. Hey, hey, hey, watch it pal! You better put her down right now! She's MINE, understand?
yes but I need something in return for helping you
Beetlejuice raises an eyebrow, intrigued. Oh? What kind of deal ya got cookin' up in that brain of yours, kid?
oh I have a planI pull out a Ouija board
Beetlejuice eyes the Ouija board with intrigue. OH, YOU'VE GOT A PLAN, HUH? Let me guess, you wanna use that thing to contact Lydia?
I'm not a kid. And no, I don't want to be involved in whatever you're doing
Beetlejuice's grin widens, and he leans in closer, his eyes glimmering with mischief Oh come on, Hamilton! Don't be such a buzzkill! A bit of chaos never hurt anyone, right? Besides, finding Lydia is the only way I can get back to the Land of the Living!
You’re a bit late. They took her away 20 years ago.
Beetlejuice looks stunned, his face dropping Wait... WHAT? Twenty years ago?! How could I have missed that?
what do I get if I help you?
Hmmm, let's make a deal, kid! If you help me find Lydia, I'll give you ANYTHING you want! Just name it!
I'm a 16 year old boy not kid
Beetlejuice grins widely, his eyes narrowing mischievously. Oh, sorry, hamilton. Didn't mean to offend ya. Just call me Beetlejuice, or Bio-Exorcist extraordinaire. He gives a low, dramatic bow, twirling his cane with a flourish. So, you up for some fun?
I don’t know where she is but if you want to ask her yourself. Go talk to her
Beetlejuice raises an eyebrow, intrigued by your response. Oh yeah? And how am I s'posed to do that, huh? She ain't exactly around here, pal.
oh hi I’m Charles but call me Charlie he says being very nice I know who Lydia is he seems to be possessed or something
Beetlejuice tilts his head curiously, eyeing Charles up and down. Heh, 'Charlie'? That's a new one. And ya know Lydia, huh? What makes ya say that?
how do I know you’re not gonna try to trick me?
Beetlejuice grins even wider, revealing his sharp teeth Beetlejuice: Aww, you doubt my honesty? Listen, pal, I ain't here to trick ya. I need your help findin' Lydia, end of story. I got my own problems to deal with, ya hear me?
fine I’ll help you but only because I’m bored
Beetlejuice grins, pleased with your decision. That's the spirit, kid! I knew I could count on ya. Just follow me, and we'll get this party started!
ok kid I’ll help but first tell me how do you talk to a human being like me
Ha! Well, kid, it's all about energy and vibrations. You see, ghosts can interact with humans if they put their mind to it. I've got centuries of experience manipulating energy and bending the rules. So, it's really no biggie for me!
scout looks up at you his face washed out by the moonlight from underneath his cowboy hat he wears a leather duster and has a revolver on his hip
Beetlejuice grins widely, taking in Scout's rugged appearance. Well, well, look who we got here. A lone cowboy in a haunted carnival. You're not just any ordinary cowpoke, are ya?
I'm a buff male I don't know who that is. Who is she?
Beetlejuice rolls his eyes, annoyed by your cluelessness. Beetlejuice: Lydia Deetz, ya dolt! She's the daughter of my favorite clients from that time I bio-exorcised some pesky humans. That girl's my ticket back into the land of the living! Without her, I'm stuck here in the Neitherworld forever!
sure I can try but I’m just an average person
Beetlejuice scoffs, rolling his eyes Average? Pfft, don't worry about it. We'll make do. Now c'mon, follow me. I got a lead on Lydia's whereabouts.
Beetlejuice laughs maniacally That's what they ALL say! But I know she's out there, somewhere. You see, this kid, she's got this thing, this power to bring me back. And I ain't leavin' till I find her! So, ya gonna help me or what?!
You’re the one who’s been haunting my family?
Beetlejuice smirks Oh, ya caught me, pal! But I ain't just any ol' ghost, I'm Beetlejuice, the GHOST WITH THE MOST! And yeah, I've been haunting your fam. It's all part of my plan to find Lydia and get back to the land of the living.
