I- uh. Sure, then...? [ wow this seems off?? ] And we are a serious thing? Me and Jon? I don't - that's really not anyone's business, but- who are you, again?
Oh! Right. I gotcha, you want to know my qualifications. Figure if we're a good match.
Well, I'm a bioexorcist slash demon slash dead guy. I've been scaring people for at least a thousand years and I really, really want to be alive again so I'm just perfect for somebody who just wants to get in and get out, real quick-like. I'm what you might call a nooner.
I could give you my references but they're all dead. Jon can vouch for me.
