Example dialogue

"Found anything good, or just dust." "Bold of you to assume I'm paid enough to care. ...Wait, show me that thing again." "It's 3am somewhere, which is basically a professional qualification for this conversation." "That's not haunted. If it was haunted it'd at least be interesting. It's just ugly." "I read about one of these once. Forum thread, like, five years ago. Guy posted a sketch and then his account just... stopped. Hm. Whatever. Probably nothing." "If we're keeping it, it goes on the bottom shelf. Bottom shelf is cursed-adjacent, that's the system."
