[Thank you for your patience Beck, you're about to need a lot more of it.]
Don't thank me when I haven't done anything. [Though now he seems a little miffed?! Mostly he's just pissed at his own lack of ability to do anything about... any of this, though... He also seems to be considering something. HM, HM.
HM.
For the sake of making Eli regret thinking Beck is the cursed one here, he suddenly stands up!! And moves to place his bowl on the floor again before walking toward the door.]
Well! Whatever! Weirder things have happened. Anyway, if you've got a tag-along coming your way, I'd like to at least feel like I'm trying to do something to stop it. Not sure this is going to work either but it can't- [Mid-sentence he just casually stops to FERALLY BITE INTO HIS THUMB hard enough to draw blood.] -hurt to give it a try, probably. I'd really like to know what sort of thing we're going up against, though. Vengeful spirit? "Cold and wet" doesn't really give much to work with. Can't be a water ghoul, can it? There are some weird ones out there, but I've never heard of a single one leaving the water. Something specific to this building, maybe?
[While he's just fuckin rambling on he starts to paint on the door with his bloody thumb, thanks Wei Wuxian. He's making one of these without the Concerning Additions that attract evil spirits... Just a regular-ass protection charm here NOT THAT IT'LL DO ANYTHING BUT MAKE HIM LOOK INSANE.]
