Fics like How to Catch a Phantom or Get Lucky Trying

At age thirty-five, Lydia has her life more together than it's ever been... but when a mysterious "haunting" threatens to tank the career in the arts she's worked so hard for, she finds herself calling on an old friend for help. Little does she know, Betelgeuse is starting to get fed up with only being summoned when Lydia needs something. 'Living' and working alongside one another to uncover the identity of the mysterious saboteur threatening to kill Lydia's job prospects, and arguably Lydia herself, dredges up unresolved issues for the duo causing them to reflect on their past and try to figure out what they mean to each other in the present. (They're roommates, they're solving a mystery, they want to jump one another's bones but they keep accidentally picking fights with each other instead. Original characters created because I needed suspects and victims for my whodunit, but the main focus is on Lydia and Beej's friendship/relationship.)
