Just woke up next to a skeleton

[bread_goes_bip]

[Death wasn't really expecting to wake next to a skeleton today. Well, really, she wasn't expecting to wake up at all, since she wasn't intending to be mortal again for another ninety eight years or so. Definitely one of the stranger days of her existence.

Still, confusion is no reason to be rude. Never an excuse for that.]

Uh, good morning?

[Later in the day, Mayfield residents may find her wandering the town, taking everything in. She remembers the fifties, but she was never mortal during them so it's a whole new experience for her. She's likely to say hello!]

[Out front, mowing the lawn.]

"Hey, why are you so ☠☠☠☠ cheerful."

[bread_goes_bip]

Well why not be? Life's more fun this way!

[heartstar-blues.livejournal.com]

Because this place is terrible.

[Death isn't fond of sleeping, but it has to be done sometimes. So have a voice in the inside of your head now as a rather confused skeleton in pyjamas looks at you]

HELLO?....

[Edward spots her walking around through town.]

...hello?

[bread_goes_bip]

[Voice in the head. Not her preferred approach, but she's far from unfamiliar with it.]

I'm... really not sure what exactly is going on here.

[It's the only way you can talk when you don't have vocal chords]

YOU HAVE BEEN KIDNAPPED.


[Death, he's not subtle]

[bread_goes_bip]

The people seem nice though.

[bread_goes_bip]

[Death examines him. This one actually seems familiar.]

Hi! Do you live around here?

[bread_goes_bip]

[Well, that has her worried]

That's a problem. A huge one.

[puzzlerprince.livejournal.com]

[He's probably come so close to Death's door that he would seem familiar. Though I'm sure she's dealt with the Joker far more often than with Edward.]

Well, currently, yes, though this is far from my real home.

[Sits on the porch, trying to finish a reading assignment. Why is this so hard.]

[likescats.livejournal.com]

MOST PEOPLE SEEM TO THINK SO.

[bread_goes_bip]

I mean... for the universe in general, if I'm not where I'm supposed to be.

[likescats.livejournal.com]

REALLY. WHAT UNIVERSE ARE YOU FROM?

[bread_goes_bip]

[Okay, now she's confused. Took a while, but that did it!]

What universe? There's just hte one.

[bread_goes_bip]

[Notices the frustration, can't be having that!]

Hey, is something bothering you?

[likescats.livejournal.com]

NOT REALLY. THERE ARE QUITE A FEW I BELIEVE.

[But first introductions. A polite nod]

I AM DEATH, FROM THE DISCWORLD.

[bread_goes_bip]

[That first part is surprising. The second part? Considerably more so. Really not sure what to make of it, exactly.]

Well then... uh... I'm Death, from... not the Discworld.

[She's never met another Death before. This is rather confusing.]

[bread_goes_bip]

[Death is pretty sure she remembers him being born. The joys of doing double duty.]

I get the impression it is for most people.

[likescats.livejournal.com]

[That last bit she said surprised him as well. It's a bit harder to tell with him though as his face can't change from the bony grin.]

INTERESTING.

THE TOWN SEEMS TO HAVE A SENSE OF HUMOUR.

[sveariket.livejournal.com]

[Lifts the book up for her to be better able to see it.]

[bread_goes_bip]

Yes, it seems so.

[A strange one indeed. She looks Death over, again.]

I take it you go for a more... traditional approach?

[likescats.livejournal.com]

I SUPPOSE YOU COULD SAY THAT.

[heartstar-blues.livejournal.com]

Only the fake people and that's only to your face. There are a few good kids around here and a couple good people but for the most part there are a lot of ☠☠☠☠.

I'm The Captain by the way. Figure I'll tell you before someone else says something about me.
