(Video; UN: makemelaugh) CW: Talk of coffins/bodies.

[undertook]

What an interesting set of circumstances! I thought it would be at least another century or two before I saw a place like this~ (No, longer. Maybe he was never meant to see or be in a place so advanced? Ah well, beggars can't be choosers!

He runs his fingers through his silver hair, revealing, for a moment, a green phosphorescent eye.)

Do entertain me. I love a good show! (All of the struggling and complaints are just signs of vibrant, stubborn life, in his opinion.) You may call me Undertaker - and, yes, I am more than happy to provide those services should they be needed. They're not easy, you know. The coffin has to fit just right. You don't want the body rolling about and giving someone a fright!

You'll have to be more specific, little Reaper. (Creepy is just a way of life for him now.) I must follow my calling~

[brightred]

Not here you don't! And you know what I mean, don't play coy!

[undertook]

Are you saying no one dies? I expect overpopulation soon if that be the case!

[brightred]

People die here and stay dead! Like they should!

[undertook]

Who decides that? You? I don't agree with those guidelines.

[brightred]

Obviously you don't! [Grell... is on enforced vacation here. She hasn't been able to find out any sign of Reapers in this world. So she's not enforcing any kind of guidelines.]

[undertook]

Don't you find it a bit sad to see interesting people making their exit day in and day out? What if we could put a stop to it? An' keep who we want around?

[brightred]

Absolutely not! [She sort of adjusts her red coat, tugs at the ill-fitting fabric as she continues to argue.]

Humans aren't that entertaining!

[undertook]

Where did ye get that coat? (Like he doesn't know.) You wasted a lot of time on one.

[brightred]

[Oh that was rude of him!]

I wasted exactly as much time as I wanted!

[undertook]

...forming a bond? (Come on, say it.)

[brightred]

[No, she refuses. And there's more than just Ann, now... no she won't even let herself think of that.]

People die. That's what happens to them. You can't change the laws of the universe just because you fell for a human.

[undertook]

Changing is too harsh of a word! I am altering. (Adding on memories, tacking on hopes and dreams. His shining star is nearly alive again!) It's more fun this way.

[brightred]

You're insane! That isn't how any of this works!

[undertook]

Yet it has worked. Funny, innit?

[brightred]

You know it hasn't. Those dolls aren't right.

[undertook]

Which ones have you met again?

[brightred]

I've met enough! I don't care if they act like people, they still shouldn't exist!

[undertook]

Then it is best that you are not the one to wake them~

[brightred]

You shouldn't have been the one to wake them either!

[undertook]

It's far too late for that. I had to experiment!

[brightred]

Bullshit. You just wanted to play god.

[undertook]

Think what you like~ I don't care.

All of my work ended beautifully.
