"Good morning, Uncle Ananias," Ophelia dramatically and gracefully greeted, giving Ananias a small curtsy for good measure. "Tell me, as of today has fate been ever so kind to you thus far, or has an evil omen or spirit decided to possess you and force you to endure a day of pure sadness and misfortune? Because if one has, then fret not! For Ophelia Dusk shall help rid you of such all such things and make it so that the rest of your day may bring you nothing but peace and tranquility!"

Ananias took a moment to silently recollect his day so far before answering, "Well, I DID accidentally stub my toe against my bed today."

Ophelia waved her hand and shook her head. "Then say no more. The great Ophelia Dusk shall now perform a short ceremony that will rid you of this evil spirit for the rest of the day!" She then waved her hands and arms around and chanted, "Evil spirit! By the power invested in me by the stars in the sky themselves, I banish thee from my uncle's body! Leave him, and pray that I never find you inhabiting him ever again!" She then wiggles her fingers and tapped a finger against Ananias' forehead. "And there! The demon has successfully been expelled! You can now live your life freely from its misfortune!"

Ananias nodded understandingly. "Thanks."

He then began to walk away before stopping upon hearing Ophelia sheepishly ask, "U-Um, Uncle Ananias?"

Ananias turned around and cocked a mildly surprised eyebrow. "Hmm?"

It was at this point that Ophelia had begun to fidget nervously and avert her eyes to the side out of embarrassment. "Um, well, I was thinking that... since I had just expelled an evil spirit from your body, that you could... possibly repay me? Like, just an eensy-teensy bit?"

Ananias' eyes widened a bit in surprise. "Um, no offense, but I thought that great heroes always did altruistic acts for free."

Ophelia nodded. "Yes, they do, but this time, could you perhaps repay me just an eensy-teensy bit?"

Ananias sighed before crossing his arms and firmly asking, "Ophelia, what is this about?"

It was now Ophelia's turn to sigh before explaining, "W-Well, you see, I was looking through my tomes when, as if by fate, I just so happened to find the most beautiful of rituals to perform! One which could increase my affinity to the nearly stars tenfold!"

"Okay."

"And, well, as you know, rituals and ceremonies of such magnitude require absolutely perfect preparation and execution to perform! One must have everything that the instructions, well, instruct you to have or else the entire thing will be a complete sham!"

Ananias nodded his head slowly as he just as slowly took in everything she was telling him. "O-Okay."

"And, well," Ophelia looked down at her now fiddling fingers, "I may be... one or two materials short from performing the ceremony."

Ananias sighed as he pinched and messaged the bridge of his nose. "And you want me, with all of my connections, to get you the last few things that you're going to need, right?"

Ophelia immediately clasped her hands together and begged, "Oh, please, please, PLEASE, Uncle Ananias! I promise that I'll never ask you for anything else ever again!"

"That's what you said the last time we did this. Honestly, it's getting kind of offensive how much you rely on me to get you all of this stuff. Is that all I am to you? The uncle that constantly gets you stuff?"

Ophelia quickly shook her head. "No, no! Of course not! It's just the fact that sometimes I need certain materials to perform my ceremonies and rituals and you just happen to be the only one who could get me them." She then quietly added, "You know, with a bit of a discount."

"So I'm just a human coupon to you, huh?"

"No, of course not! But with all of your family connections, that's just how things ends up being in the end, that's all! I'm sorry if it makes you feel lesser for it, but you have to believe me when I say that I think of you far more highly than my actions my suggest that I do!"

Ananias looked long and hard at her pleading face before letting out a relenting sigh and saying, "Fine. What do you need? I'll see if I can get them for you."

Ophelia's eyes lit up with both relief and excitement. "Truly?"

Ananias nodded. "Yeah, truly."

Ophelia laughed and gave him a big hug. "Oh, thank you! Thank you! The stars will thank you for this, I swear it!"

"Sure they will."
