Yeah, thanks, Alastor, but he's definitely going to have to pass on a trip to Hell. He'd like to think he may be in the Nexus because he wasn't bad enough to go there, but also not good enough for Heaven. Or maybe just beneath notice of both. That would be consistent with the path of his earthly life, anyway.

Either way, he doesn't want to tempt fate.

He's not sure whether or not he should go anywhere outside the Nexus with a demon, when it comes down to it. But Alastor is painting a picture that's more...wholesome isn't the word, but more low-key and human than Cricket expected. Like maybe he just misses being alive in the world he came from. He's kind of pressing Cricket's sympathy button, in short, and some rational part of him is trying to tell him that may be deliberate and not to get too comfortable, but he's respectfully ignoring it at the moment.

"Well, sir, I don't wanna get caught up in hurtin' no one, but just visiting and seeing the place sounds, um, tempting." There's a glimmer of self-deprecating humor in his eyes. Is tempting the point? Are you that kind of demon, Alastor?

"Sounds like you were lookin' for ghosts a lot when you was alive. Is that so?"
