The counselor's office, like you said before... The woods... The auditorium... But, none of these places have any water, that I can remember. They're just spooky.

[hanaban]

They wouldn't normally. You'd have to enter the boundary somehow— something transitional, like doors or mirrors or stairs. So keep an eye out for that sort of stuff, and tell me when you do!

[closewithnewintown]

Doors, mirrors, stairs-- Hold on, I should be writing this down. [reaches into her bag next to her, pulls out diary, starts taking down notes.] Can I check if it's a boundary or just a normal mirror by myself, or is that something only you could do?

[not that she's gonna go off to fight a monster by herself or anything except she's totally gonna.]

[hanaban]

You can check, but you might never be able to come back.

[ Most humans who get snared in boundaries don't go looking for them anyways— they stumble upon them by accident, or are lured inside. In Hanako's experience, he wouldn't think Stephanie to be wrong to say the school is gobbling everybody up. ]

So... come find me first, alright?

[closewithnewintown]

[she nods, you know, like a liar.]

Gotcha. I'll keep an eye out for anything that looks like a way into someplace.

[hanaban]

And you're going to come find me first, right?

[ hello? the more important part? ]

[closewithnewintown]

What? Oh, yeah, of course. [like a liar.]

[hanaban]

[ He's going to let the school eat her.

... ]

Well, that's that! Anything else you want to know from a ghost?

[closewithnewintown]

Um... [thinks...] Oh, can ghosts really get inside cars and make them drive around on their own? Trixie told Stingy that they could, but I think she was just trying to give him anxiety.

[hanaban]

[ what ]

Sure can! We can make the headlights blink and everything!

[closewithnewintown]

I see, I see... [nods very seriously] Yeah, that's all the questions I have.

-- No, wait. If I ever find myself facing some kind of supernatural - not in this situation specifically, just in general - what should I use to fight it?

[hanaban]

Whatever you have on hand.

[ Everything she has on hand, tooth and nail. ]

For me, nothing works better than a kitchen knife.

[closewithnewintown]

Oh. Those are kinda rare, though; everybody else always snatches them up. [NOAH] Anything else?

[for, you know, the evil ghost hunting trip she's definitely not doing by herself.]

[hanaban]

[ What are y'all cooking with if you don't have knives ]

Hmm... Some people have staffs, some have swords... What do you have on you? I bet we can make a weapon out of it.

[closewithnewintown]

[thinks...]

I have a hoop?
