DEATH TWELVE: THE REAPER MAN

[likescats]

[Okay so the skeleton was creepy. The addition of the black robe didn't help much with things either. Which is why anyone who's walking by Death today might be even more unnerved to see the new addition to the ensemble. Death, has his scythe back. You can find him out and about today.

A. He's cutting the grass outside his house. With  his scythe.

[The scythe definitely has Slugger's attention, possibly even throughout the entire class period. When class lets out, he'll approach the desk and hesitantly reach out to touch the scythe's handle.]

BE CAREFUL, IT'S QUITE SHARP.

[Which is why the blade is glowing a faint blue as it cuts the atoms around it.]

[strike_you_out]

[If allowed, he will carefully lift it and stare up at the blade in awe.]

It's nice.

[likescats]

[He is.]

I'M GLAD TO HAVE IT BACK.

[strike_you_out]

[He steps away to give it an experimental swipe through the air, then peers over his shoulder at Death as if to wonder 'Is this how it's done?']

[Congrats you have just cut air. No really.

Death nods.]

IT'S SHARPER THEN IT LOOKS.

[strike_you_out]

Does it cut through souls?

[likescats]

OF COURSE.

[strike_you_out]

[Awesome. He slices through the air again, grinning.]

Can I borrow it for a day?

[He's joking. Sort of...]

NOT UNLESS YOU WANT TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN SUSAN GET'S VERY ANGRY.

[strike_you_out]

[He might have an idea.]

You mean the Voice?

[likescats]

PART OF IT.
