Eric didn't understand that; he thought being in contact with others like her might make her feel more comfortable, and anything that made people stop being hostile towards the mediums (or made them stop calling them crazy) sounded like a good plan. But he knew Emma Jane would either love or hate the idea and he hadn't had many expectations to begin with. With a shrug, he nodded. "It's okay, I wasn't expecting you to jump right on it. It's fine, she'll have to find others. I'm sure there's others."
But if he was honest, he was just a little sad that this might be the one possibility of him becoming somewhat corporeal and Emma Jane wasn't interested. If she still thought he might change bodies, she was still sorely mistaken, so he hoped that wasn't the case.
