not that she can talk, her future girlfriend is an enforcer so y'know. heavy is the clown nose. ]
You are really obsessed with these ghosts, are you like, okay? They're not real, they're not going to get you. [ she says, in this horrible haunted estate. ]
[ Ah, yes. The perfect setup for when they reach the top of the stairs for the second floor, and one of the doors along the hallway suddenly slams shut on its own.
Aventurine stills for a moment and then glances back at Vi. ]
[ okay, for all she's been calm so far, that does absolutely get her to jump like a cat confronted with a cucumber. she grabs for his shirt instinctively, spooked, and then lets go of it like it burned her when he glances back at her.

I can at least assure you that I'll encourage you to step out of line, so as long as it doesn't summon a ghost to come after us.
