dead hearts are everywhere

[Stan arrives at the chapel early. It doesn't take long to re-create his ghost summoning setup from yesterday; he left all the materials stowed under one of the middle pews, where the hymnals should have been. He sets it up exactly as it was, right down to the angles of the candles. Honestly he suspects the mirror was the only really important part, but he's not about to risk technical difficulties. Not tonight.

The rest of it was all gathered up earlier: there's some coffee, to ward against people falling asleep outside the rooms, and a lot of extra notebooks and pens taken from the storage room. He didn't tell anybody what to bring, after all, or what to expect. Secrets are easier for one person to keep, even if only for a day. Some of the rest might have gotten excited, the Kingmaker might have gotten curious, and then what?

As the meeting time draws near, he tears a page from one of the notebooks, scribbles his little symbol and a message on it, and slides it in front of the mirror.]

You there?

[To the others, he turns with a grin. In a voice somewhere between a gravelly whisper and his Mr. Mystery act, he says:]

Thanks for comin'. Our friends on the other side have been waitin' for us.

["I'm sorry, we can't feel Beheeyem. He can feel us, though?"

"were we supposed to feel something???"]

[pokexplorer]

Hmmm.

[Colress glances at Beheeyem who is still concentrating and occasionally looking around, then looks back to his notepad.]

Indeed, he is even looking around the room. At the very least, he is aware of your presence.
I wonder if there is a way to make it a two-way channel, like the one we have here.

[trustharder]

["maybe if you have him spin around and say 'misa-misa' in front of the mirror three times???"

"Perhaps it would at least be a good way for you to locate us if you wanted to have a one-on-one conversation? I don't know if that would work, though..."]

[pokexplorer]

He is a Pokemon, Miss Misa, I don't believe he can even say human speech.
You know, for reference, here is a drawing of him as well. I realize many of you have not met him.

[Below that message is a quick doodle of...an alien with glowy fingers. But it's a Pokemon, he swears.]

That is a good idea, actually. But will I be able to get your attention elsewhere in the Vault if you are not able to sense Beheeyem back?

[trustharder]

["I guess we could meet up in the lab room later on this week and experiment a little?"

And then in the same handwriting: "With the ghost things."]

[pokexplorer]

[That gets a smile out of him.]

Ah, and even in my favorite room! I would very much like that.
Do you have a specific timeframe in mind? I am there most days, but having things locked in is nice.
