Harley opens her mouth to almost ask a related question, but then luckily Reinholdt saves the day by asking a more personable version of the same type of question.
Harley figures being told Kitsuki is technically fey is mostly for her benefit. After all, she's the odd one out who's the only one here who doesn't already know that. However, like Kitsuki, she's also not quite sure how, exactly, that's relevant. "And if Rein counts, then Manja probably counts at least half as much, too." And maybe a bunch of the children here, too, towards this 'fey limit', she thinks. But...this last time, apparently, it was just those three adults there (could be argued as a 'high concentration' maybe?), plus ghosts or spirit energy or whatever. Possibly something esoteric, since only three times so far likely means 'spirit energy' is something very specific.
...
Which, by most definitions Harley's magical girl powers could be easily called 'spirit energy'. Although Harley sees absolutely zero reasons why she would need to use them here, she makes a mental note to especially not use them near here, just in case.
Manja, hearing her mother say her name, turns and looks, and then says something irrelevant but also cute.
Harley bites her lip, thinking. In order to get a better picture of what would trigger 'Otherbriane', she asks Obriane, "So, as an example, what would you say is missing right now in the situation we're in, that's would cause it to happen?" Bunch of fey concentrated in the same room, check. High energy of some type....the Nexus could easily cause to randomly happen. But this question is just about trying to understand with an example how easily it could happen again in the future.

Reinholdt frowns a little in thought. "But... don't you actively seek out high-spirit energy places with your job and all?" That seems to be driving the incident rate up! Though there's another trigger involved, fulfilling one of two conditions is still playing with fire. Still, it's good to know she won't just spontaneously transform sitting here in conversation, so that's a bit of a relief and a disappointment.
Rein glances at Kitsuki, before shrugging a little. "Sure. I mean, I guess I knew. She's a kitsune right? Those are fey in some places. Honestly, fey's a little vague around here. Some even call me fey and I'm not sure how accurate that is." It is questionably accurate.
"Uh..." Obriane gestures towards the book again when Rein asks about seeking out spiritual places. "-another thing about changelings is that we attract spirits. When I were younger I was even possessed by spirits a lot until my parents managed to ward them off with the help of my uncle. Whose the author of the book." She gestures to it again.
She wouldn't get bogged down with details though. "So the spirits come to me wherever I like it or not and I've learned how to deal with them. Which is why I got into this business in the first place." This she felt a lot more confident saying, for a moment she had nearly forgotten all the awkwardness regarding what they were talking about.
But she couldn't linger on the topic of her profession sadly since Harley also had a question. "Well, I'm honestly not sure if Kitty or Rein is even contributing to it. Since it's usually things that don't have an actual body if that makes sense? Something which manifests as-" Obriane waves her hands in a gesture she hopes would somehow compensate for her lack of terminology here. "-spirit-stuff. Like, when there's so much energy that they can actually create an actual physical body and objects from it. That's unusual since usually they need people to possess for that or appear as y'know ghostly specters. It takes at least that if not more. Since I do recall when we were at the, uh, place that this fey manifested itself out of nothing." Hopefully the other two could remember that too.

As Leis comes running with spices in hand she will soon be face to face with the door in question. It's shut closed of course yet she can tell that there's a light on the other side as it floods through the gaps. She was fairly sure those lights were turned off earlier and she can hear what sounds like a hushed voice or voices from inside.
Meanwhile, in the kitchen, the girls can hear how the television is suddenly turned on. Weird.
Nightly Visit
"Another time." Jaahlyn agrees with a nod, though don't look quite as enthusiastic about the idea.
She then bid Strider farewell and as she said, it won't be long until they can start climbing up again.
Back to Jim's dream.
Then there was some other matters they had to attend to once Jim woke up but the important part was that he now had the most important component for his staff and a couple of other gems...
