"Let me get this straight. The plan is to kill someone to free the spirit? That's the plan."

"I am not planning to kill yet, angelwolf. But it's good to know the resources we have at our disposal. I can probably control my shocks well enough to knock out a target, but I wouldn't want to risk it."

"He's got a point about the strategy. How sure are you that we can trap it?"

"Mountain ash will trap a nogitsune just as well as it traps everything else."

"Cool plan. Now what else we can do?"

"I can research the possibility of an exorcism. If the spirit has taken hold of his mind, it should be possible to disrupt that."

"Where and how do you do your research?"

"I would probably need to leave town for this. The goal is to find experts, books, and occasionally places that can give new insight."

"I get how the incentives must have lined up over time such to produce the current world as it is, but don't you ever wish you could just do a wiki search for things?"

"It would be convenient in some ways. I should get packing."

"Safe journeys. Let me know if you want clear weather for an airplane trip or something."

Trevor turns back to the others. "Okay, so how do we safely capture Stiles?"

"We don't. We minimize casualties."

"I know this is hard for you to understand, but sometimes we have to use our words instead of our claws."

"Yup. We have options, we can contain the Nogitisune host through non-lethal methods. Also, if it comes to killing it's probably safer if we use bullets or my lighting bolts. Unless there is a reason not to?"

"No. The method shouldn't matter, if you can land a hit."

"What do we do if we can contain it? Can we get it out of him?"

"That's what the research is for. When the good doctor returns, we'll know." 

"I can probably knock-out someone with electricity, but I never trained that skill. Not to sound threatening or anything but killing anything with a human body is trivial for me and Felix. I think we could focus on how to keep the thing out of action once we contain it."

"After we trap it, we have time to consider other options."

"Can't we just do an exorcism?"

"Not really my area of expertise."

"Alright. So what our plan should be? Should we contact fox lady?"

"I don't think we should trust her. Kitsune can be pretty wily."

"Well, I wouldn't know. I don't think we have any fox specific magic back in my- I mean Felix's native universe. And even if she is wily she at least looked a bit informed about things. It might be worthy at least keep in touch with her."

"You should put us in touch. The adults should handle this, going forward."
