Everyone always thinks that having your soul devoured is a clean process! It's separate from your physical form, right? But, that's not how it works! Your spirit is part of every little part of you - and to get it, they'll take whatever piece they can grab first! Ripping flesh from bone! Cracking bone to the marrow! Yellow fat and white fat and red muscle - you'd be awful surprised how long your conscious mind can stay attached to your physical form as it's devoured before your eyes! It's when they start on your organs that you die, usually! Immortal-types always seem to have a particularly awful time of it, and sometimes last even beyond that!
Ok, well, I guess I just have to hope I don't pull the wrong soul out of the nothing.
[Petty? yes, but there are others she can talk to you about the ghosts and Friday has given her some interesting information. Which means that others might also have interesting information. And she's not going to risk Max or Erin by actually attempting what Friday told her not to do.]

[Others might be upset if she got torn apart, but if she learned something in the process, well, it might be worth it.]

That's you, isn't it!

So someone has attempted it before and that was the outcome.
[It would have been silly to assume she was the only one with the ability to pull souls out of people and places to ever end up on the Serena Eterna.]
Does the ghost disperse after that or keep going?

Oh, you can't possibly think anyone's ever done that here! We're here right now, aren't we?

Did it happen in a reality that wasn't the Serena Eterna?

I would deeply appreciate hearing the story, Friday.

See you later, Friday!

Well, you'll certainly see someone...
