Return it when we're done. Got it. I think I can handle that. [ This is a once in a lifetime opportunity, and if she's honest she'd be surprised if it came around more than that- once in a lifetime. She'll be stepping into their world for a day (much less, in reality) and just a taste is more than almost anyone else could hope for. It's something she didn't even realize she wanted until literally THAT moment.
She takes a breath and doesn't waste anymore time, finishing what he started and opening up the box, calling the being inside out into the human world for what might be the first time in ages, for all either of them knew. ]
