“What do you want? Tarot reading? Talk to your dead grandma? Oh.” Ed says, interrupting his own halfhearted spiel. Because as the kid pushes the beaded curtain aside and comes in, Ed can see that there’s a surprisingly solid-looking spirit trailing behind him, flinching slightly as the beads pass through him like he’s expecting them to hit. And from the spirit’s outfit, which looks several centuries out of date, if he’s a relative it’s a very very distant one. (Or he carked it at a costume party. Ed’s seen weirder.)

The kid watches Ed’s face as it flicks between him and the seemingly empty space over his shoulder. “Oh thank fuck, you can see him. Frenchie said you weren’t a fraud but he also believes that old guy down by the pier can turn into a seagull.”

Ed’s about to be annoyed about the fraud thing -- okay, he is, most of the time, but still, fucking rude, but then the spirit chimes in, voice as clear as if he were in the room with them. Which he is, technically. “Oh thank goodnes

“That’s the skull, yes,” Stede admits.

Ed isn’t sure what he expected --- some flash of recognition, maybe – but it’s just a skull. A skull of distinction – it’s clearly old, the jawbone is missing, and parts of it are covered in silver – but nothing about it feels like him. “Fucking fancy.” He reaches a hand towards the case and then stops himself.

Stede grimaces. “It was being used as a – drinking vessel, for a period. Hence the silver.”

Ed snorts. It’s the kind of thing teenage goth-him would have thought was completely badass. Current-him just thinks it’s funny. “Not like I was using it at the time.”

“Yes, well,” Stede says, clearly affronted enough about it for the both of them.
