[He almost bolts when he sees Lea, it's clear in the way his body is entirely tensed. Since he still has some shreds of dignity left, probably, he doesn't do that. Instead, forcing himself to relax before speaking.
Also, you won't really be conscious during it... It'll be all him. You might not have a choice about what you're doing while he's in there, or where you are when you pass out afterwards. Is a mattress that big of a deal?

week three, sunday.
Hey. You got a second? We had something to ask you... A favor, basically.
no subject
The blush he can't do anything about.]
What kind of favor do you need?
no subject
We think we might have a way to help find out who killed Swift Wind.
no subject
We've got a way to summon his ghost, but - sorry, why are you blushing?
no subject
[ There's a very long moment before Val says anything more. ]
I've... Been cursed. Continue on.
no subject
What? Did someone make you fall for Emma?
[
he's an idiot ]
no subject
...I'm pretty sure it isn't me, Lea.
[She hates it, thanks.]
no subject
Go back to talking about the ghost.
no subject
ah ]
Ah, well. We need a body the ghost can use.

no subject
[Thanks guys. Let's pretend that never happened. Thanks.]
Very well, I agree.
no subject
You're not even letting us say how it'd work before agreeing, huh?
no subject
no subject
For how long?
no subject
Couple hours, right?
no subject
[She is not actually 100% sure. It’s fine.]
no subject
I'd like answers. Being out for a few hours is a small price to pay.
Make sure nothing happens to me while I'm out.

I prefer a coffin over a mattress.
[Some vampire stereotypes are true.]
I could simply stay seated while I'm possessed.
no subject
Yeah, but this is less about your aesthetic choices and more about a location that's both secret-ish and not likely to give you a concussion.

The matress is fine. Just put me on the floor after I've collapsed.

no subject
Vally...?
no subject
He's the type to use nicknames.
I have no reason to stop him.
no subject
Yep, what he said.
no subject
[Anyways:]
We aren't putting you on the floor. We will update you as soon as you're awake, though.
no subject
His back is gonna feel weird if they put him on a mattress. But at the same time Lea's the one who's asking so-]
If you insist.
no subject
-- Sure, let's go with that. So, tomorrow, ghost horse charades at Emma's house? Everyone good with that?
[ it doesn't have to be emma's house but she deserves it ]
no subject
Yep. I'll let Shess know what's going on and where to meet.
no subject
[Even as much as he likes Lea at this moment, he still smiles at their antics. They seem good together, and that matters just as much.]
I'll be there at the appointed time.
