So, I randomly died one day.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
ALEX...
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
IT'S TIME TO DIE...
...alex... says:
Oh dear. I have some last minute things to do, then.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Oh, okay then. Take your time. But I still have a few plane crashes an a heart atteck to deal with today, so, if you don't mind...
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
*and a heart attack
...alex... says:
Ah, I see. Well, I'll only be a few...
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Please hurry. Mr. Reaper will be unhappy with me if I take too long. This is only my second week on the job.
...alex... says:
Oh, I see. *shoots you*
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
I'm already dead. How do you manage that?
...alex... says:
I had to know for sure. I guess I'm ready to go, then.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Oh, right-o.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
*poof*
...alex... says:
*dies*
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
So, how are you?
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Other than dead?
...alex... says:
I feel strangely out of breath.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Well, don't be.
...alex... says:
Well, aren't I
...alex... says:
?
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Like, how out of breath? Marathon-like, or running up the stairs-like?
...alex... says:
Like, dead-and-not-needing-it like.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Ah, yes. Many people tell me about that when they first die.
...alex... says:
Ah. How did you die?
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Me? Fell down the stairs at my office job with a box of industrial staplers. Not the best way to go.
...alex... says:
Well, that's better than in a 'poof', I think. Not that I'm hacking your killing methods.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Oh, no, no, no. You see, you already died. I just poofed you to where ever your soul was headed.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
If I check my files...
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
You died of a yet-unknown disease that causes all bodily functions to cease immediately.
...alex... says:
Oh dear. ...Well, there are worse ways, I suppose.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
You have no idea. Just last week, I had to deal with a man who got nail-gunned in the back of the head, stumbled forward, slipped on a nail, slammed his hand underneath a circular saw, slammed down his head onto the top of it, sawed his hand in half, stumbed back, fell onto a table saw, foot slammed into the on button, got sawed in two from the waist up. Poor guy.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Then there's people who actually do die by a poof.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
It's a morbid business.
...alex... says:
Oh, you poor thing. *patpat*
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Hey, I never said I didn't like the job.
...alex... says:
Ah. *unpatunpat*
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Ohh... *takes pats back*
...alex... says:
Hrmp.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
So, I wonder where Mr. Reaper went. He should've shown up by now to take your soul somewhere...
...alex... says:
*humming, sitting on the floor* So what's your name, then? I don't really know who you are.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Oh, nobody around here has names, anymore. I'm K83.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Come to think of it, if you were to get recruited right now, you'd be called K91.
...alex... says:
91? Really.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Yeah. They say the last K91 committed suicide.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Nobody knows how she did it.
...alex... says:
Odd.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Yeah. We do our best to reuse names here. I'm K83 XXVII. I think you'd be K91 XX.
...alex... says:
Oh dear.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
The newest name we have is ZZJ92.
...alex... says:
Doesn't sound so new to me.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Well, there's 0-99 for each letter, and the sequence of letters is A, B, C, D, etc., AA, AB, AC, AD, etc., BA, BB, BC, BD, etc., so it's newer than you'd think.
...alex... says:
*bliiiink*
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Yeah, so that's about 100 000 names that we've used, not counting how many times each one has been used.
...alex... says:
I see.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Alot of people seem to be against the idea of serving here for all eternity.
...alex... says:
Eternity is rather long, you know.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Well, yeah...
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Time sorta starts getting mushy once you've been here a while, though.
...alex... says:
Mushy?
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
It all blends together and one year starts feeling like a day and a millenium passes by like a few months.
...alex... says:
That seems rather dreary.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
It is.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
But hell, thematic months seem to make the time pass by nicely.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Naked November has become quite popular.
...alex... says:
o,O
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
It sorta takes Casual Fridays and runs with it.
...alex... says:
That's rather casual. ...And being from Saskatchewan, that's gonna get rather cold.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Well, we're more or less in a strange purgatort-like place now.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
*puragory
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
**purgatory
...alex... says:
So that consistutes naked November?
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Well, it certainly makes the weather more warm.
...alex... says:
. . .
...alex... says:
Indeed.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Well, I'll be right back. Stay right there.
...alex... says:
Got no where else to go.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Fair enough.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Sorry, I'm back.
...alex... says:
*soooze*
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
...
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Wake up!
...alex... says:
*snorrr*
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Wake up, I said!
...alex... says:
Ehgh? ...Mhm. Oh, hello.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Jeez, people. Just cause this place is toasty warm doesn't mean you can sleep when you want!
...alex... says:
Numnhmm.. But I like being warm..
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Would you like me to leave you in a field in the middle of winter?
...alex... says:
;_; *wibble*
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
I guess Mr. Reaper is tied up with an unintentional death right now, so he's not gonna be here for a while. It looks messy.
...alex... says:
Ah. That's unfortunate.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Quite, soo...
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
I suppose we're stuck here for a couple days.
...alex... says:
Oh. Okay.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Argh. I'm sorry, but I'll be back again soon.
...alex... says:
Okay.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Back again.
...alex... says:
Hello there. *trying to do a handstand*
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
I wouldn't do that if I were you...
...alex... says:
Oh?
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
The gravity is always shifting in this place.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
You'll break your neck if you aren't careful.
...alex... says:
Aren't I already dead?
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Yeah, but it'll still hurt.
...alex... says:
Ah. I'll remember that.
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
So, I suppose we should talk to pass the time. I don't want to sit here for the next 48 hours in silence.
...alex... says:
Yes, that would be quite bad.
...alex... says:
I'm off and gone - Cheers!
=-= Sir Shojo : Elemental Demon of Stone =-= *Insert whistful sigh here...* says:
Aww. byebye
