You grab the notepad and pencil, write out a Ouija board for the spirit to use to communicate with you all, and put it on the ground. You briefly explain your idea to everyone including the duck.
“Great thinking!” Kobashi loves your initiative. You’re not used to being heavily praised.
“Let’s see what our spirit friend has to say.” You all sit down in a circle around the duck and the notepad. Kobashi pulls out another notepad to write down what the duck will be saying.
“Are you ready?” Kobashi asks the goofy animal.
“Quack.” The spirit points at the word ‘yes’ on the board.
“Perhaps we should retread our steps, ask the same questions again.” Fiora proposes.
“Well then.” You put your hand on your chin. “Who are you trying to communicate with? Me? Kobashi? Or Fiora?”
“Quack.” The duck begins spelling her message:[b:lit] A—L—L[/b:lit]. Kobashi lets you know despite being fairly obvious.
“All of us?” You wonder why. “You know us three?”
“Quack.” The duck points at the ‘yes’ again. How…?!
“Are you native to this world?” You wonder.
“Quack…” The duck takes her time. It’s a long message, so you’ll let Kobashi read it.
“Same as yours.” Kobashi raises an eyebrow. The duck is staring at you intensely. She comes from outside the bubble?
“What can we do to help?” Fiora asks the next question.
“Quack.” Again, the duck takes her time spelling a long message.
“I need my real body. Give me more energy and I’ll be on my way.” Kobashi reads.
“Do you know where your body is? Your real one, not your duck one.” You ask.
“Quack.” The duck points at the ‘yes’ yet again.
“What’s your real name, Ducky?” Kobashi gets all serious. He knows it’ll be the last time he’s going to be able to call the spirit ‘Ducky’.
“Quack…” The duck starts dancing on the table to spell the answer.
“Dorothy.” Kobashi acts like this reveal is mighty important. “A perfect name for a duck.”
“Mhm!” Fiora agrees completely.
“Q-Quack?!” Dorothy doesn’t like what she hears.
Dorothy… You know a Dorothy (Lise’s evil scientist mother), but that Dorothy is dead. And death means that your spiritual energy becomes the tiniest fraction it can, like with Osgood and Dhrtarastra. So, it is most likely a coincidence, except for the fact that she admitted to knowing *you*.
>>What do you do?
>“I take that back, I think this is an evil spirit.” Time to get rid of the evil ducky.
>“You’re Dorothy Villiers?” Ask the duck just to make sure you’re not pulling at straws.
>“How exactly do you know us three?” Maybe it’s good not to raise red flags, so keep the question vague.
>Donate energy to the evil Ducky.
>Write In.
