Elton's fingers are intertwined with Corey's as he starts off their video, standing in their office, in front of their shelf of oddities.

"Welcome back to the Overnight channel," Elton's voice was soft, and a grin spread across his face. Those words felt good to say again, and Elton couldn't help but love the feeling of getting back to the work he loved most.

"I want to start by thanking you all for your patience during my break to get better," Corey's hand squeezed Elton's, "I know Corey did a good job at giving you guys an update video and getting you guys up to speed on... all the crazy shit that's happened."

"Before this video starts, which yes, is my real exorcism, I wanted to tell you all that from this point forward, we will be filming Overnight in a new way.
We'll still do investigations, take our group to different locations to find their proof of the paranormal, but we'll be doing it a lot safer from now on."

Corey nodded, "and no more possessions, please."

Elton nodded, turning to face Corey with a soft grin on his face.
He unlocked their fingers, reaching off screen and grabbing the wooden box. A Dybbuk box.
Elton couldn't remember what was in it, he had never gotten to open it. The only people who could remember what was in it were the witches who helped him with his possession on the Queen Mary, and even then, Elton didn't want to ask.

He and Corey agreed that they should bury it, in the garden behind the house, and they'd never dig it back up again. They doused it in holy water and wrapped a crucifix around the outside.

Elton and Corey both took a look at the box, then up at each other, before Elton tossed it onto the desk beside him, immediately locking his hand with Corey's again.

"No more possessions."
