Stella nodded as he confirmed his promise to keep Adeloise safe. That in itself eased her worries. Man, she just wished she could do the poltergeist thing so she could have a little more control over the kid--that way she didn't have to demand too much from the guy. The actual poltergeist in their presence really didn't do much about keeping the girl out of trouble.

"Just knowing there's a living person who can actually carry our girl to safety is good enough, honestly," she spoke blandly. It was the truth anyway. If Adeloise didn't want to get possessed, neither her or Adrien could take control of her body to run off. "Anyway, I hope you can convince her not to have you out any later than that — she actually believes that ghost are more active in the evenings and in daytime," it was hard to ignore the way Stella rolled her eyes. For someone who was a spirit medium, you think they would already know how spirits don't really pick the time of the day, Stella thought to herself.

"As far as I know, Adeloise has never turned down pizza but..." she frowned a bit, "You don't really have to treat her to anything, honestly. Having you get dragged out here is already too much of a favor."

Alex scratched the back of his head and looked to the side for a moment. He was coming up with arguments for why the pizza was so important. "Well, if nothing else it'll help convince her to go back to town before it gets dark. " came his response. "So, anyway, I take it we're in agreement now? Was there another I had to 'convince'?" Alex felt a little funny, making deals with the dead had always been a taboo in the cultures he had grown up in.

Stella hummed in thought; he had a point. Adeloise could rarely turn down offers like that. "I guess that could work," she hummed thoughtfully. "And yeah, that's all there is. There's no need to convince the other one there. He'll jump in on this adventure as he feels like it. He's the one who's going to be disturbing you if you fuck up though, just so you know." Stella had a sneer on her face, though it wasn't so much as threatening, it was bordering mocking.

"I'll be leaving this conversation to you and the little squirt then." Stella made a gesture of waving goodbye and pointing finger guns at Alex before the body dropped to its knees.

It might have taken more than a few seconds before Adeloise stirred to consciousness, shaking her head to get her bearings back. Her head spun a little but she could deal; she could see Stella and Adrien at the corner of her eye. "H-how was it?" she asked Alex weakly.

Alexander raised an eyebrow slightly. "You don't remember?" This really bothered him. It took several seconds before he moved on and summarized: "she talks a lot and likes to walk around while doing it. But we've got a deal, plus we're getting pizza afterwards!" He could not completely hide his personal enthusiasm about the latter part.

His eyes remained a little narrowed, however. His mind dwelled on other things. "I think it's about time you get going though, I'm sure there's some teacher or other personell worried sick about you." He grinned. "And I'm sure you'll make really good friends in school." He stood back up and faced the direction she had come from.

Adeloise shook her head, "Not clearly. Just dreamy impressions," she replied, seemingly a little dazed. Adeloise had to swallow back down a really unpleasant feeling in her throat — she almost forgot how bad it was when it was Stella's turn. She tried to pull herself together before it became an issue.

"Stella's a real chatter box; that's definitely her," she stated. She didn't need to check how the aforementioned spirit was giving her another look. Not that she would have cared about it at this point because she was more excited about the prospect of actually being permitted to walk around a graveyard! And yesss, there's pizza! There wasn't really much hiding the glee in her eyes. "I'm so glad! I can't already wait!" she cheered.

The girl didn't seem to notice the look on Alex with her excitement, barely only paying a few seconds to glance at the sun setting in the horizon. (It wouldn't be the same with her companions, though.) "Oh gosh, you're right," she gasped softly. "I guess I do have to go. It was really nice meeting you! I was actually supposed to see my dorm parent," Adeloise stuck her tongue out a little, laughing at herself for intentionally pushing her schedule. Then again, Stella did take up a little of their time negotiating which makes it not entirely her fault.

"I'll go make friends at school too! So don't worry. I'll be okay for now, I can find my way back to the dorms," she stated, skipping ahead of Alex with a wave of her hand, disappearing into the distance.
