"Absolutely dead serious." He replied, "And I'd like to be able to do it again on purpose, sometime." A sigh as he settled back in his chosen seat, "The problem, is that I'm still not totally sure how I did it the first time, and also I don't really want to summon any of the ghosts that are hanging around this place, yech."

A sigh, picking up his coffee again to take a gulp, "So as much as I hate it, because being sober sucks, even after that first detox, it's what I've gotta do if I want to figure out how to control all this." If he wanted any actual chance of somehow being able to manifest Dave again, if it would even be worth it.

"Problem is I don't even know if it's actually working." Partly because of his reluctance to try manifesting any of the ghosts he usually saw, they were bad enough when they couldn't actually touch him, having them there and solid would just be so much worse.
