There is a litter of kittens on a table, most of which are so tiny that their eyes haven't opened yet. They're forming a soft, mewing pile of fur, looking for the warmth of a mother that isn't there ( Read more... )

At first, Max's expression says OHMIGOD KITTENS!

... then, not a second later, it says OH MY GOD GIANT SKELETON.

Death is distracted, so doesn't look up straight away.

He's trying to detach a kitten who got too involved in the suckling.

Give him a second, and he'll warm up to the image in front of him.

... there!

"Aw!"

Sure, it's a thousand different shades of creepy, but! Kittens!

It is, indeed Aw.

Death looks up.

Good evening, he says. Do you like cats?

Max nods, cautiously shuffling a little closer.

He will know my displeasure when I meet him.

Seriously, who wants to meet a displeased Death?

"That's... good," Max says, still looking quite appalled.

This is when he reaches down and starts gently petting one of the kittens.

It's so soft! And warm! AND CUTE!

And this is when a look of fondness appears on his previously-shocked face.

"Poor little things."

That was my sentiment, Death confirms.

He likes cats.

Max nods, still preoccupied with the kitten.

Then, once he remembers his manners, he sheepishly says "I'm Max" and (a bit reluctantly) extends a hand. "Maxwell Smart."

Death knows what to do with hands!

He shakes it with his own.

I am Death.

Yes, says Death.

Huh.

You meet all kinds here, don't you?

Max isn't really sure what to say to that, so he goes back to petting the kittens.
