[If this were any other time, Chrissy would focus in on that second part and let it be the start of an incredibly happy and likely very cute conversation. But it's hard to focus on that when the first thing he said is replaying in her mind over and over again.]
Really? A skeleton? [Okay, so maybe it is the afterlife. Or one really complex hallucination. But she's pretty sure she's not capable of hallucinating Eddie Munson quite like this. In fact, she doesn't think she's creative enough to hallucinate someone like him at all. So she's banking on the hope that just maybe this all is real. It's weird, and it's confusing.
But she desperately wants to be alive.
Which means that maybe she shouldn't sound so excited about a skeleton guy just walking around. But she's curious.]
That sounds pretty freaking metal, if you ask me.
[She can't bring herself to say fucking yet. But someday she'll get there. Just like she's managed to pull a smile out now. This place is scary, she's still seeing things, and she probably died back in Hawkins. But she's got a friend here, and that's a good start to trying to feel more like herself.]
