'This is your stop.'

[ Her face contorts into confusion, then... flat out irritation. What happened? Did she die? Did something go wrong with the --mystical event thingie? -- Why is this guy all cloak-ridden? She scrunches her face up and squints her eyes, completely perplexed. ]

Wha-? No! No stops. And -- and, where am I? What'd you do with

[...oh no. Not again. He doesn't want to go through it with another Buffy, or even the same Buffy who doesn't remember this place, which is really like another Buffy. Besides, when people go home and come back, usually lots of stuff has happened and they're like another them either way. Po certainly left the Dragon Warrior and came back the son of a goose and all that other awesome stuff (read: noodles + kung fu).

Now, it's different. Now, he's shamefully hideous, and hideously shameful. Now, as per usual, he'll simply use the voice function. He won't show his face over the video. He can't. He's too...strange-looking, even to himself.]

You-You're in the Underworld. Some people call it hell, but they're different, so it's not really.

So - [ Gosh, she doesn't sound too happy right now. ] - I am dead, then. Very, very non-alive.

[Po does not fear that voice!]

No, no...well, are you dead? Did you die? Because if you still can, uh, hear and fell your heartbeat and have to breathe and get hungry, you're not dead.

You hungry?

[Voice]

[slayery]

I don't remember dying. I do remember the big ouchy of the mystical whatever-it-was-thinger that happened right before the creepazoid with the cloak in a boat, though. [ UH - ]

I'm... Not too hungry right now, but that could change. Maybe if the decor was a little more appetizing.

If your pulse is there and your heart's beating and stuff, then you're not dead. [Obviously, Po, obviously.] So...yeah, then, uhm...there's like a little city beyond the docks, and you can live wherever you want and stuff, there's a market, etc., etc. ...

[Voice]

[slayery]

Okay, I can live wherever I want but um - there's this whole... Money thing. That I don't exactly have on my person. So, what about that? How does one deal with the lack of funding?

[Voice]

[savedbyradishes]

There's all sorts of jobs! It's kind of, uhm...it's kind of easy living, you could say, besides all the, uh...bad things that happen from time to time. Live wherever you want and eat whatever you want, and...well, I mean, if someone already lives there, it'd be rude to move in or make them leave, then people wouldn't like you...but jobs are...less an issue than pretty much, uh.

...everything else.
