*Faye nodded once, steeled herself, then uncorked the vial and tossed back its contents, choking and spluttering a little. Within moments, she appeared, albeit bent over double.*
"Christ on the cross! It tastes like something died in bucket of bilge water!" *She began to gag lightly while scouring her tongue with the loose sleeve of her dress.*
"Gaaaaaah..."
*she looked up and paused as she realized both Richard and Aimery were staring at her.*
"...Dun yoo dayah th-taht waffing ah bee."

*Aimery turned back sharply at the sound. There…the last thing he expected…the last person…Faye. His face lit up like Christmas morning as he ran towards her with a huge smile.*
Oh God, Faye! It’s you…I’ve missed you so much! You’re…
*He paused and touched her cheek gently, oblivious to the audience.*
You’re real…I mean solid…here. And I’m not naked.

"Did I forget to mention the taste? Apologies," said Richard, wincing.

*Faye shot a glare at Richard before turning back to Aimery, smiling sheepishly.*
"I...um...there's other ways to, er...get me solid."

I’m sorry…I didn’t mean…
*Aimery looked down sheepishly.*
But how? It’s…amazing. And you’re here.
*He looked up, smiling happily.*

"Richard has this elixer that can make me solid for forty-eight hors!" *she said brightly.*

Richard: *looks self-satisfied, but not in a smug way. Just... glad that he could actually help someone.*

*Aimery looked her over, awed.*
That’s…that’s wonderful! What do you want to do? Where would you like to go? Let’s do whatever you want for the time that we have….wait, who’s Richard?
*He looked a little confused.*

"Oh!" *she turned to Richard to introduce them.* "Richard, this is Aimery. Aimery, this is Richard."

Richard rose to his feet, shakily as usual, and extended a hand.

*Aimery turned sharply; looking surprised, but smiled and took Richard’s hand. He bowed his head repeatedly in a gesture of gratitude.*
But how? How are such things even possible? Who is he?

"Er...a ghost?" *said Faye helplessly.* "He knows more about being dead than I do."
