“Mm,” Emily hummed, meeting Wise’s eyes and nodding again, although she kept her face carefully neutral. She didn’t make any assumptions about what her partner knew or believed. It could really run the gamut from pure materialism to the high strangeness of indigo children, and that was just the mundane stuff.
The supernatural dipped into that but tended to be fairly straightforward, Emily thought. That said- the guy was allegedly an empath, and one who would claim the power but not want to focus on it. It was a strange tact to take, and distracting overall. They still needed to get to the scene.
Introductions made, Emily finished off her notes, and at the bottom wrote a small that read:
Psychic medium, I guess? Want to humor him, see where this takes us. Might need to book him though.
She tipped it in the other detective’s direction. It was written in normal script rather than Emily’s skilled shorthand, so it would draw her eye, but Emily kept it angled away from Shudder.
At the same time, she said, “Alright then, why don’t you show us around? Tell me you didn’t touch anything, though.”
