Jade and Death
Death: *herds some souls into Mandos* *tiny depressed skeleton*
Jade: :checks them in: Hey, are you ok? :crouches down beside him and keeps Opal from grabbing his scythe: Would you like some tea?
Death: ...*nods*
Jade: :pours him a small cup of tea: You want to talk about it?
Death: chitter ;_;
Jade: oh. I don't actually speak chitter. :offers cookie:
Death: *slowly turns human and takes it* mmph.
Jade: Sorry. I'm taking lessons, but I haven't learned it yet.
Death: it's all in the mime I'm doing to accompany it. *stares at his tea*
Jade: So they tell me. This is Opal, by the way. Please excuse the grabby baby hands.
Death: >.> I have horrible memories of babies. It usually involves gaping wet mouths and cries of 'rattle!'
Jade: I'll keep her over here. So, why the sad chitters?
Death: >.> Erendis.
Jade: Ohhhh. Should I get you something stronger, or is tea all right?
Death: tea's fine. *mopey voice*
Jade: :pats his shoulder:
Death: She was going on about hating her husband and throwing away her stuff and then she just...changed her mind o.o
Jade: People do that sometimes.
Death: they do? this is the only time I ever...
Jade: ah. Might I suggest someone unmarried, or at least without a visible partner next time?
Death: She started it. I don't understand any of you.
Jade: You being females or you being people in general?
Death: people.
Jade: People are strange
Death: *fidgets*
Jade: :sips tea: Sorry I can't be more help.
Death: I think I'm going to take a break.
Jade: From what?
Death: my job. That thing I've been doing since before Namo hired all you new people >.>
Jade: Oh. Well, hey, if you want to.
Death: do you know how to move the dead around? *worried look*
Jade: :nods:
Death: You do? The severing from the mortal coil and everything?
Jade: I watch, you know. I know how it works
Death: ...*still doesn't look convinced*
Jade: If you don't trust me, why are you leaving?
Death: I want to. *fidget* Maybe I can teach you.
Jade: I'm teachable
Death: give me your hand
Jade: :gives:
Death: *passes on all of it.*
Jade: oh. :headache:
Death: every single second. Every day.
Jade: Man, go take your vacation. Why haven't you done this before?
Death: ...I never wanted to. I'm more of an embodiment than a maia. I think Namo made me to be Vaire's pet
Jade: That wouldn't be so bad. Except for the shuffling people off the mortal coil thing
Death: They need that.
Jade: I know.
Death: so. can you do that?
Jade: yes.
Death: kay. I just get tired sometimes and it's what I'm made for and...*peers at his now cold tea*
Jade: :gets him a fresh cup of tea: I can handle it
Death: *nods* *sips*
Jade: :cuddles Opal: So... are you done for good, or what?
Death: I don't know. o.o
Jade: No rush. Just let me know someday
Death: *nods and turns into his normal form and darts off under his chair and away*
Jade: :sips tea:
Jade: :checks them in: Hey, are you ok? :crouches down beside him and keeps Opal from grabbing his scythe: Would you like some tea?
