No they do not. By seeing the tools as crutches, they are unable to realize their full potential.

god there is so much to unpack.

First, yeah Gramps still thinks tools suck ass.

Second, he has basically beat into Flipflop (and other spirits probably) that their worth is based on their powers and usefulness

Not like it can show a person’s skill for adapting and using those skills in creative and alternate ways, but I am getting ahead of myself.

Third, he purposefully did this, thinking that Isabel will fail with a spirit without “OP powers”, meaning he never had any confidence in her tool use at all, and that he doesn’t have any faith in her abilities and intelligence to adapt with said tools.

Because fuck, she picked up on that flipping shit so naturally it was scary, but it isn’t like Gramps would actually care about that.

Basically, Gramps is trash and Isabel deserves better.

Oh shit she is asking? You are actually asking what happened to Flipflop? Oh man, that is a big can of ghost worms.

I was right, Flipflop was basically abused by another spectral (implied as her grandfather) and just knowing that has changed her behaviors on fighting. I know it is a sad thing, but she can and has learned from this

You know what? I can’t tell if Jeff is saying that he is cool because he has calmed down and is perfectly fine, or if he is cool because a “cool kid” touched him.

The fact that all it takes is a high five for both sides to be cool and understanding to the other amazes me. Johnny has a way with being cool as he is about to be jumped by the Jr. Popo’s

Like any rules can contain Johnny.

Johnny can probably break the laws of physics if needed.

See Johnny’s apparent 6 pack for example.

This is so fucking weird because Johnny looks like he is going to his own execution, and he still has no idea about Jeff being Hijack.

Yeah Right, you somehow got angry drunk on soda.

In a Fascist society that would be good behavior

Glad she was waiting for Jeff, but god are those Student Council uniforms dumb.

Yikes, that sounds like a history between you and the talking finger puppet.

Is that why Dimitri doesn’t want to do the whole ghost thing, because he doesn’t want ghost powers or talk to his ghost or anything like that?

That is like a mimikyu as a legit ghost, I love them already.

Wait, so you are a medium like Isaac then. But…with a child? Because that is like a toddler play mat.

That hurts…..but she is trying so hard…..

You are so devoid of color it isn’t funny. You do not have this under control, but you are moving in anyway because of your kid.
