It's a ghost. This is actually happening. Jade stops in her tugging. "I won't." She hisses, sounding almost offended.
She recognizes Pearl from the stories of that night. When she asks to trade, Jade gropes around and finds her cat, first. She considers, but ultimately just tugs loose a small orange cat collar, complete with a pumpkin bell. She'd charmed that, for the holiday, but this is a far better use. "The cat's famous." She says in a whisper, eye peering through a tiny crack in the flap, to get a better look at the ghost-girl. "So it's worth a lot."
She sits back on her ankles so that Ari can have a chance to turn over her semi-valuables, too, if she wants.
