You're quite welcome.
**********************************************
A couple for "Apology Tour":
Stella: I've gotten an invitation to a support group for those that have had it rough in past relationships - it explicitly mentions my recently finalized divorce.
Striker: Well, I suppose that is a good thing. And I am sorry that I snapped at you so badly last night. I guess I've gotten too paranoid and failed to take your feelings into account.
Stella: I acknowledge and PARTIALLY accept your apology, but it will take quite a while for me to accept it completely.
Striker: Yeah, I definitely deserve that. I've majorly messed up too many relationships to not expect that. And, aside from you, the only one I've honestly apologized to was Chaz and that was a pretty recent thing itself. But then, I suppose this is a good opportunity for me to get in some practice with that gizmo you gave me to allow me to run my business before I start doing missions with it.
and 2. Striker: Have to say, this looks like a really good support group.
Moxxie: Thanks. I admit that I got the idea for the support group when I noticed that I wasn't the only one who was struggling through a failed relationship, whether with you or not. I was only trying to help Stella get over what her ex-husband put her through. You DID do a good job keeping your past relationship discreet.
Striker: Well, yeah, I have to admit that I DID mess up pretty big with us and I DO owe you an extremely sincere apology. (hands Moxxie a large pile of cash) And some payment for everything I put you through on the last night we were together, with interest. Yeah, I was, and am, extremely terrified of commitment, but that's no excuse. I legitimately AM trying to change for the better. Adopting Tex was part of that.
Moxxie: If it helps, your employee's sister is extremely enjoyable company that I wouldn't mind seeing again sometime soon.
Sally-Mae: Look, when humans die, they either go - here - or to Heaven - more frequently here. Yes, sometimes, Sinner Demons or Winner Angels DO manage to find some way back to the living world as ghosts (or guardian angels in the cases of the Winners), but that is EXTREMELY rare. And, even then, the Sinner Demons that return to the living world usually get dragged back here by the Reapers before they can do much harm.
Rita: You said, "usually". That's NOT the same thing as "always".
Striker: No, it is not. On the rarest of rare occasions, there IS an especially slippery escaped Sinner Demon that manages to get in some actual chaos before they get caught and dragged back. But, more likely, it is an Infestor Demon that killed you. Infestor Demons can fly, turn invisible and/or intangible, create illusions, shape-shift and possess people, so they DO have powers strongly resembling those of a ghost. In fact, most of the stuff in the human world concerning ghost activity is actually the work of Infestor Demons. But whether it is an actual ghost or an Infestor Demon, we WILL get your killer.
