"Is that its name?" Sadie brandishes her glass in Aiden's direction. "Aiden, I command that you release that short young woman at once! The power of gin compels you!" A moment later, the glass flies violently out of her hand, and Sadie gasps indignantly. "My drink! You're a very naughty ghost!"

Jodie folds her arms tightly and shakes her head. "He's not a ghost," she protests, though her heart is pounding in an uncomfortable mix of excitement and fear. What if they could separate her and Aiden, sending him back to the infraworld? Should she really try to stop them?

Of course, that assumes these two drunkasses could actually do it, and Jodie's far from convinced. The fact that they can see Aiden is alarming, but that doesn't translate to being able to do anything to him (as Johnny sort of proves).
