[And once again, it is noon on meeting day in Patrol headquarters. There's a big open meeting room space, tables in the middle, a projector on the ceiling, computers in the walls. It is shiny, high-tech, clean, and full of a lot more people than last time. Yuan is already here before anyone else arrives, getting papers laid out and shuffled around. He seems tense, but satisfied. Things are finally coming together.]

((ooc: Please wait to tag until sections are up, thanks! Actually, go ahead and tag away in each section as it goes up. Threadjack lots! We're all in the same room, so jump in wherever you want.))

[to start, he takes his gloves from his belt and pulls them on, then takes two items out of the crate - a pair of modified welding goggles, and a strange contraption about the size and general shape of a hairbrush, with lights and buttons all over it. he puts the goggles on, pushing them back on his forehead, and gestures with the contraption]

These are ghost-detecting tools - the stuff we use to see whether or not there's a spirit, demon, or other paranormal entity in the area. They both detect the same kind of energy - psychokinetic, or PKE. It's a special kind of energy that only paranormal beings give out. It's not just for ghosts, though ... it works on magic, too. F'r example - [he turns the meter on and waves it in Yuan's general direction. the antennae on the sides begin to slide up and down, and the lights blink as it beeps, intermittently] - it picks up on Yuan's inherent magical energy, since he can manipulate the stuff. The more energy present, the stronger the reading. And, yeah, even the castle itself gives off energy. I took this stuff out into the Insolitus with Aradia and her FLARP party, and I got some really fantastic readings. I'm still compiling 'em, but I'll share with anyone who's interested once I'm done.

[he turns the PKE meter off and clips it onto a carabiner hanging from his belt] As for the actual ghost catching ... that's where the proton pack and the trap come in.
