I can survive well enough on my own
Elizabeth laughed at the teasing comment, patting him playfully on the shoulder. "Although your height is a very helpful aspect, I just needed extra hands. My new telekinesis can only do so much." She'd been practicing with it, but she couldn't hold more than one end of the string, and it took a lot of concentration. Giving him a warm smile, she shrugged her shoulders. "And I happen to enjoy your company." He'd been nothing but kind during their meetings, and she liked their conversations. His insights were wise and compassionate, letting her relax into comfortable companionability. There weren't many other people she'd rather do this with.
Elizabeth let her eyes settle on the doorway, the entrance to her home, and the easiest access for spirits. His reasonable suggestion made her smile. "That's a great idea." She took another large sip of her hot chocolate, letting the warmth linger as she stood from her chair to reach for the first string of bells. They chimed lightly and she hummed a little to accompany the sound. Lengthening out the strand, she lifted one end towards the top corner of the door. "Can you hold here, please?" While she waited for him, she focused on lifting the other end with her magic, preparing the nails in her hand to secure it all.
