No. [ that one's even more abrupt than his surprise at her touch. sorry, annie. ]
I mean— no, no possessing people. Tears, lots of them. It's a terrible idea.
[ which is to say: no, he's not going to tell annie how she does it. ]
And that's probably the blood. [ it's a quick, thoughtless reply to her comment about metallic flavors. he realizes after he says it that it's slightly off color.
maybe it's for the best that he can only do the human interaction thing once a month. ]
[ well i never said tact was his strongest suit okay!! ]
I'm sorry.
[ for being tactless, and for her being a ghost. josh had assumed it would be easier for annie, given that she can at least feel something - clearly he was wrong. and also an insensitive ass. ]
Maybe it'll change here. I mean, I'm basically a dog at this point. Anything's possible, right?
[She smiles a little, but it's clearly sad, there's something painful there. She knows how strange she is, she knows precisely how this isn't exactly easy]
[ josh's motto is more along the lines of it can always get worse, but he still does a good job of offering her a smile like he's almost sold on the optimism. ]
Yeah, of course it will. I've dealt with worse. [ ... maybe. ] I think.

[Wait maybe she can-
That's not a thought for public]
I'd probably be terrible at it anyway. And people can see me here so there's really no reason, is there?
no subject
But seeing isn't really the same thing, is it?
[ several years before he and sally even managed to hug, his own self-imposed exile - he knows what it's like to miss the tactile side of things. ]

Well, Mitchell and George, they hug me-
