Oh, did she say ghosts? The look he shoots Lup this time is deceptively mild, but still expresses plenty of 'what the shit?', to which he adds a questioning sotto voce ghosts?? as if maybe Lup didn't already know what part of that statement was the problem. Are they...should they ask about that, maybe some day? It uhh, doesn't sound great, which is to say, Ren is making it sound fine, which in turn means it probably isn't. Ren's unexpected help with the packing up is just one of many things that Taako has kind of accepted, at this point.

Do families play hide and seek a lot? Is it too soon to look at Lup for backup again? She doesn't know how to answer that either, probably, so he settles for just shoving merchandise into the knapsack in befuddlement. Whatever, being honest with children is probably technically correct, and even if it isn't, it's usually at least funny. "Our family was pretty much just our coworkers, for a hundred years, and we didn't have one before that. But we did kind of play for like, most of that century, if you squint? The other team cheated a lot." His answer is unnecessarily chirpy, like maybe he overshot flippant and landed in paradoxically legit waters. "So, yeah!"
