...But then Dolly offers a subject change, and he latches onto it for dear life. "YES! My family! That sounds great!"

Hm! He'll have to figure out the logistics for this. "Lets see... It might be better for you to meet in town... either the Bay or over at the Outpost. Bringing a stranger into their territory unannounced might come off as too presumptuous. So I'll send off word that you'd like to meet! Maybe they'll have time to get together within the next couple months... I imagine their neighbors have already warned them about having to prep for winter here, and they're accordingly busy..."

The Ring-Spirit's already perking up as he ponders arrangements.

"They're all one pokemon, by the way - a Spiritomb. I think condensing like that helped them a lot, their souls were pretty ragged before we made it over here... They're the village of Kul Elna."

...And something finally occurs to him.

"...Oh. Is there something I should introduce you as...? I forget about that, since... I don't really have a name, myself... though Shoka calls me 'Freakazoid', which serves the purpose well enough... but then again, Pokemon in this world seem to usually just go by their species name, so maybe I'm overthinking things."

Dolly listens and watches the Ring Spirit after talking about his former Body Landlord(?). That sounds like an incredibly rough situation to have been in for both parties and an even harder thing to talk about....

2/2 I love that these eldritch goobers' conversation, its perfect

And here come that mood shift coming in like a wrecking ball, catching Dolly off guard a bit! Okay cool, changing the topic to that one instead!

A few months doesn't sound too bad at all to Dolly, that's pretty reasonable amount of time. "I think the town is a very good place to meet up in a few months from now. Winter preparations are going to be worry for sure for them and don't need the added surprise of a visit on top of it."

That...okay that makes sense. If it was like an entire ghost village, surely they're going to be much more comfortable in a Pokemon that's like a generational home for them. Yep...a centuries of being on Earth with different sorts of magical beings did a number on Dolly's sense of what's normal.

"The raggedness must have been unpleasant beforehand, I'm glad they got a Pokemon form that's comforting for the village of Kul Elna...Oh! My true name is cursed, but people have been calling me 'Dolly' for the past century and is usually my go to when introducing myself when asked."

Dolly tilts her head in thought, "Oh, if you're alright, may I give you a handle to go by? I'll understand if you want to wait a bit on that though."
