"I do have my tarot cards, I could tell fortunes for a price so we can eat." Lydia said, her eyes returning to normal as she calmed down and became more optimistic. Maybe Beej had a point, they were free here in the city with no chance of anyone knowing them.

"We'll need to find the right spot for it, a place lots of people pass by." She said as she looked around

Fear gripped Lydia as the city attacked her; car horns, bright lights, people bustling about their daily lives, it was all too much. She put a hand on Beetlejuice, reminding herself that he was there beside her to keep her safe. A faint smile appeared before she started to join the crowd. "Come on, boy." She coaxed.

Lydia let out a roar of her own, her door slamming shut without her even touching it. "This is bullshit!" She yelled, no doubt loud enough for her father to hear her. She grabbed a duffel bag she had found while searching the house beginning to pack her clothes, the grimoire she started to create, tarot cards, and her pocket knife Charles had given her for protection.

She grabbed a piece of paper before furiously scribbling something down. When finished, she turned to Beetlejuice, eyes still golden with anger and energy. "Take us to the city. Now." She signed to him so Charles wouldn't hear.

Great minds think alike. Oh, remember how we were making crossover parodies? I thought of another. Lydia the teenage witch, staring Beetlejuice as Salem the cat.

"Not safe?! He's kept me safe more times than I can count whenever I was in danger! He has never even lifted a finger to harm me or anyone who's close to me! Yes, he's everything you just said, but you don't know what he's been through that makes him that way!" Lydia shouted back, her eyes golden now as her hair moved on its own.

One thing I realized is that with Lyds and Beej is that the human reflects their demon. Shoggoth is a Lovecraftian horror that messes with the mind; Lydia is telekinetic. That being said, perhaps Ash's human is pyrokinetic.

"What?! No! Why do you always accuse him of something he hasn't done? It was my idea to see them!" Lydia exclaimed, getting between the two as she heard Beetlejuice growl. Her own eyes were slowly changing as anger built.

"You don't trust him because he's a demon, don't you?"

Stranger Beetles

"We just wanted to see our friends and let them know we're okay. It's not a big deal, we weren't even seen." Lydia argued

Stranger Beetles

Lydia sighed softly before nodding in agreement, hugging the labradoodles one last time. They had been so kind and sweet to her that she almost didn't want to go back home but knew she had to before Charles found out she was missing.

She looked over at Beetlejuice once he returned. "Ready?"
