[That doll... That most freakish doll ever. It was so cute and charming at first but then she had left it behind and it followed her... And keep talking to her. Heather didn't like it one bit. It scared her. That woman, Little Washu offered the bonfire idea but it was too far away and she really didn't want to spend that much time alone with it

Is there a problem, sweetie?

I don't like the doll, it kept on following me and talking to me. Plus it made me think strange.
[She goes to look up and adjusts the old worn, patchy sweater again.... Okay, the person is really pretty and... so far nothing has register about who the reaper is in front of her.]
Any idea on how to get rid of it?

Grell looks to the doll in question thoughtfully.] Have you tried cutting it up? Or burning it? [ADJUSTS GLASSES] Burning would be a bit more beneficial, though.

Someone was making a fire to burn the dolls with but she lives in Discedo. [The doll itself was a little girl in school uniform.]
.... [That is a lot of red.]
Is that what you did with your doll?
Reply
[It's a strange doll...]
No, but many who have unwanted dolls burn them in order to make sure they do not return. [Scarlet Fever. Soulless Automatons. Whatever else came up.] She looks to the girl.] How about we make our own fire? It is not so difficult~!

I like that idea! [Fire always sounds nice.] How can we make one?

You also need a woman's touch.
[She drops the doll ungracefully and looks about.] A good question. Fire burns best with wood, but this island has little of that. So there is just ONE thing to do.
Create an explosion.
[Because traveling 7 hours via train or teleporting to Discedo is just silly.]

A woman's touch? [Wait what? Why is a man saying these things? At least she still somewhat thoughtful of her words as pieces are slowly falling into place.]
A-A-A-A EXPLOSION? Wouldn't that be too dangerous?!

Eric is a coworker of mine. [A pause.] Or is it former? We're no longer in our world, after all.
...you have a point. [Humans are such fragile things.] We should just cut up the doll.

Coworker? .... Are you a Shinigami too?
Yeah, that would probably be better.

I hope it's better than living in a subway.
...a shiniwhat? [Sorry, Grell speaks only the Queen's English.
Pulls out a dagger from her coat and hands it to the girl, handle first.]
Did you want to do the honors?
Reply
[She goes to frown up at her.] It's the best place to live.
... A death god.
[She blinks again as she was given the dagger. She twirls the dagger a moment before nodding her head.]
Okay. [Okay, if Grell is who she thinks she is... Heather goes to make sure that she doesn't really make any sudden movements.]
Reply
[Raises an eyebrow] Why is that?
[She pinches the bridge of her nose.] Is NOTHING sacred, anymore? Such things are not for humans to know. He must get that from William.
[Grell gives the girl some space to let her do as she pleases to the doll. Mutilation can be a private thing for some.]
Reply
It just is.
.....Who is William? [Okay, that just conforms her fears... Grell is there and she is the number one person next to Batman according to Eric to avoid.] Do you also have a Death Scythe?
[She takes a quick glance behind her towards Grell. She does make a quick work of the doll though she does cut her finger during the process and drops the knife. She goes to put the cut part of her hand into her mouth to keep it from bleeding and with her other hand, goes to offer the knife back to Grell.]

Since the weather is getting cooler, you'll need at least a coat. Clothing that fits would be nice. [Crosses her arms in thought.] Do you have an aversion to dresses?
Well, such logic cannot be beaten. [What even.]
William is our superior. [At the question, Grell frowns.] Although such matters are not of your concern, all reapers possess one.
The cut does not go unnoticed. Novices. Grell steps forward and takes the weapon, placing it into her coat before extracting a handkerchief.]
Your first time wielding something that sharp?
Reply
Never worn anything that you mentioned.
No, it can't. [SUCH is the logic of a child!]
Superior? Eric's is probably better then yours.
[She blinks as she notices the handkerchief.]
I think so... Don't remember.
