[Home: 308 Miller Street]

[A package from the post office has arrived at the house. Death opens it to find a goldfish bowl with two goldfish in it.]

Well Slim, Wandsworth, what would be a good place for you?

[And how is this going to go with Rincewind...]


[Visiting: 726 Anderson]

[Death knocks on the door and waits for someone to answer. She's here to check on Edward, but is always up for conversation with the rest of the clan.]


[Shopping: Pet Store]

[Regains are often lacking in the appropriate supplies. So Death can be found at the pet store purchasing fish necessities.]

Okay, got the flakes, there have to be some brine shrimp here somewhere...


[Out and About Mayfield]

[After finishing her shopping, Death takes a meandering route home. If she sees you and can tell you're not a drone, she'll approach you.]

Good afternoon!

Really, any day that the town doesn't pull anything is pretty good.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Yeah tell me about it. So where ya off to? [He always relishes a chance to talk to someone new, so he's trying to extend the conversation a little bit.]

[bread_goes_bip]

[She loves meeting new people, so she's quite willing to oblige]

The town just returned my goldfish, so I was picking up supplies for them.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Goldfish huh? At least that's something this town has the supplies for. I prefer cats myself but goldfish are kinda cute.

[bread_goes_bip]

There's a kitten at our house too. That... is probably going to get interesting.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Yeah probably. You might wanna invest in a screen to put over the bowl or something. That way the cat can watch, but not get in if you have it in a place where it can't be knocked over.

[bread_goes_bip]

That's what I was thinking. Keeping the kitten and the hawk apart was bad enough when Arslan was here and at least Rincewind could hide.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Hawks are viscous things when they get hungry, that's for sure.

Rincewind, is that the kitten?

[bread_goes_bip]

Yeah, Death apparently named him after a wizard he knows. He's a skittish little thing.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Wait a minute, there's a dude called 'Death' here? Talk about your ominous names.

[Ken has not encountered either personification of Death before.]

[bread_goes_bip]

[Death shrugs]

It's my name too.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

I...you...we talkin' literally here?

[bread_goes_bip]

Yes. Death and I are both anthropomorphic personifications.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Holy shit...[brb brain restarting. Please wait a moment]

So this place can even screw over death?! In more ways then one?!

[bread_goes_bip]

[It's okay. She gets that a lot.]

Yes. It's been... an experience.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

[Well, when you're death, a lot of people are going to WTF at you.]

So they made you mortal and everythin' for a while?

[bread_goes_bip]

Yeah. I've been mortal before, but never for as long.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Really? What else could make Death mortal?

[bread_goes_bip]

I do it on purpose one day out of every century.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

How come you'd wanna do that to yourself mrs...death..ma'am...

[bread_goes_bip]

To remind myself what it's like.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Oh. [Well that is a reason that Ken can agree with. Being human is hard, and something like Death might not understand what is like to be mortal and afraid and fragile.

That's neat!]

Whoa, that's really brave of ya.

[bread_goes_bip]

I think it's an important thing for me to know. I used to be a real bitch before I started doing that.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Yeah I guess people don't go quietly and all that.

You know who isn't Death? MARTHA JONES.

[bread_goes_bip]

Well, it's frightening. When people die, they really need a friend.
