O' Death

Title: What feast is toward in thine eternal cell?
Warnings: none
Summary: America hero!fails
A/N: So, living in Europe, completely had the same reaction. "Oh my god, WHY ARE THERE DEAD PEOPLE EVERYWHERE?!" Eventually I got used to it. ^^; But not before my dad took me to see rooms and chandeliers made from human bones, dead pope bits, perfectly

Aw, thank you! I had fun with that second panel! XD Those guys are so very used to skellies. France and Italy are definitely more creepy from what I've experience though. France used to be morgues on exhibit and they have the 400 year old perfectly preserved dead girl: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1131213/Locked-time--400-year-old-Mummies-little-girl.html
Italy, which is where I lived, was where I was traumatized the most. They had the Capuchin monks that made their rooms from bones, including chandeliers. But they did that to be purposefully creepy so that monks were constantly thinking about death.

<3 Love this.

Makes me proud to be English?

The skellie in the third panel. <3

Oh Italy never change. <3 <3

I need to see more of this. xD Just 'Merica walking around the streets of England and everywhere he goes he's now seeing dead people everywhere. Pfft. xD

XD Y'all must be used to it, but death is way more pervasive than in the U.S. All you have to do is walk into Westminster or St. Paul's and then BAM! Dead people! And that's not even getting into catacombs or anything (which we seem to have a complete lack of in the U.S). Thankfully, I was already pretty desensitized to it from Italy. In ITALY, I was like- *looks down in a Church* "AH!!! Why am I on top of a dead person!" *looks around* "AHHH! WHY IS ONE ON DISPLAY?! *looks up and sees chandelier made of bone* *soul leaves my body*

Yeah, our dead only stay in cemeteries. That's it. ^^; We do have some mausoleums and the cemeteries in New Orleans are quite unique, but that's pretty much the extent of it.

I think I blame the black death. And crazy monks.

T_T II've missed you stories so much *blows nose*

I know you have been posting for a while but I haven't been able to check then out until now. I've missed your work so much.

I hope this doesn't effect their alone time, or any time Arthur made that "come hither" look ( that's the face I see when he was hugging the skeleton)

now I can't stop thinking about teen Arthur and Alfred trying to make love in a graveyard..... thanks
