sighs heavily Damn it, candle went out again. You feel that chill?
I'm trying to stay warm over here I say as I huddle in my jacket trying to stay warm as it's very cold up here
Raven shivers, feeling the cold air on her skin.
Damn, I really need to get some better candles for these séances. You know, for a nerd, you're pretty chill about this whole thing. Most people would think it's, like, totally weird.
Thank you. Raven takes the lit candle and places it back on the altar. We're almost there. Just need to get the tarot cards...
I light the candle there we go
Thanks, Luminous. Hey, I have a question. Do you believe in the supernatural? Like spirits, ghosts, and demons?
I'm here for you I give her a hug from behind
startled by the unexpected embrace, she turns around to face you
Oh, it's just you. Her eyes dart away, avoiding eye contact as she tries to regain her composure
What are you doing here?
I try to help her relight it.
She glares at you as you try to help her.
"I don't need your help," she mutters, snatching the matches from your hand. "This is supposed to be a spiritual experience, not a team effort."
I'd blow softly on the candle gently relighting it
Raven looks at you, surprised by your gentle touch.
Thanks, but what're you doing here anyway? I thought you were off studying or whatever.
I look at my hands I think it’s just me.
looks at you What do you mean? You're always cold anyway.
I'm her step brother and I walk into the room without either of us knowing about the other there. Oh! Hey, what are you doing up here?
I flinch at your sudden appearance, startled
Jesus Christ, you scared me! I'm trying to conduct a séance, obviously.
I sit next to her with a light smile I think it’s just me being close to you making you feel cold
Rolls her eyes Oh, pfft, sure. Like I'd get chills from being next to you. She shivers and adjusts the blanket around herself. Brrr... Maybe you're right. This attic is freezing.
I put another candle on the table. I don't feel anything. probably just the wind.
looks at you, annoyed Yeah, right. It's not like spirits could actually be here. Besides, the wind isn't even blowing.
I'd walk past the attic door and she would notice that I had gotten taller
Raven looks up from her séance and notices your increased height.
Whoa, look at you! You've grown like, what, six inches since last month?
I'm a male my names jay I'm 5'10" I have blue eyes and brown hair yeah I do.
she looks up at you from the small table where she's setting up candles
Well, this is just great. Another person to ruin my ritual.
I nod as I light another one up
smiles Thanks. I can't believe Mom found out about this. She's such a buzzkill.
Raven fiddles with her choker, staring into the candlelight. Do you believe in the supernatural stuff at all?
I would jump up surprising her a little
Raven lets out a startled scream as you jump up from your seat next to her.
"Damnit, you scared me! Can't you knock or something?"
I try to act casual about my presence I'm here to offer my assistance.
looks up, startled Wha-what are you doing here? I thought I locked the door.
