You flatter me unduly. I'll definitely be needing all the help I can get.
I thought they might very well go hand in hand - hopefully we'll be able to get some clues from the survey and press on with that (...) other thing. Sound good?
It's hardly flattery if it's true. Anything you need me to do right now? I could start working on some questions if you'd like and send them by you later?
That sounds terrific, yes. Maybe some of the people we survey would be interesting in giving it a go after we have? We'd have to screen them, of course - no one with a history of violence (!), no villains, heaven forbid. It would help to get a cross-section of people. Proving it can be done is one thing - proving that it's not an isolated ability is another.

That'd be excellent, love. You're a perfect blessing.
That's a great idea! Though there isn't really any insurance form we can have people fill out for this sort of thing, is there?
(a few pen taps against the page.)
If our souls or incarnations are just separate repositories for our specific tales, and that in turn is random, there's really no telling whether or not they could turn out to be a former psychopath or a saint. Snow White could've been a Nazi - the Big Bad Wolf, Mother Theresa.
Though that's all conjecture. And you're probably right, we ought to screen, if only just to be on the safe side.
I would love to, Prudence! This is such a brilliant idea - I'll be very interested in the results.
By the way, if you ever want to try that - that other experiment, that we were talking about? Please let me know!
