That kind of shit just doesn't happen where I'm from, so I don't really want to bank on it, you know? Feels like too much. Death is supposed to be it.
But as long as they're still over with Carly and Polly, then... I'm not counting anything out, either. We'll find out later if that makes me an idiot, I guess.
Well, it's not supposed to happen where I'm from either. Almost got like, Death Arrested for it too, but that's fine.
[What if he just moves to flop on top of Chuuya? What's up, bud. Sprawling so his head on his shoulder, so he can think better, obviously.]
So, in my area of expertise, which may or may not be applicable to this world's rules, is that if they're frequently contactable and maintaining their original personalities, that means there's either some powerful necromancy going on, or they aren't truly dead dead. Or I'm just making fake-shit up because I'm full of it, but there's clearly some magic as hell shenanigans going down. Guess I'll have a chat with Nathan, if he's the dead guy go-to.
[Hello?? He's not expecting that, tensing for just a second-- but then he relaxes, lightly wrapping an arm around Taako. Why not, he's right here.]
I'll cross my fingers for 'not truly dead dead', or something like that-- I mean, Nathan and I are still here with you guys, and we were also pretty damned dead.
[They're fine now, though, he thinks.]
-the fuck do you mean by 'death arrested', though? What, you have some sort of ghost police?
Shit, if that's your kind of thing, how are any of us supposed to measure up?
[teasing-- but he at least drops that quickly enough, at Taako's last comment.]
I know you've said things were bad before, but if you think Death could've gotten killed... that sounds like the sort of thing that shouldn't really be possible.
Yeah, you did, but listen-- I've seen fucked up. You've seen the shit I could do. Things weren't exactly normal back home, but that's still kind of above and fucking beyond.
[A shake of his head, there, as he runs his fingers through his own hair in a restless little gesture.]
You didn't mention that, no, but I feel like that really shouldn't be a surprise either.

[humming to himself, getting up to get more of those cookies.]
So you think there's a way to get everyone back? If we don't fuck it up on this end.

[he shrugs, there, huffing out a sigh.]

[what did you expect]
Then I hit on him and he let us go, it was fine.
no subject
[there are absolutely layers to this, one of them being 'you mean Death is real and legit?', but like. That part sure sticks out!
There's a pause, there, before he breaks into quiet laughter and shakes his head.]
You know, I've heard stories about people trying to bargain with Death, but that's a new one to me-- what the fuck, Taako?
no subject
You've known me for a few weeks now, and this part is like, at all surprising to you?
no subject
[because yes, that seems like a Taako move, but still!]
Well, that and most depictions I've seen are really not something most people would try to flirt with.
no subject
[Apparently just not gonna explain Death is actually handsome, because it seems extraneous.]
no subject
[like. that just doesn't even seem feasible, sans undertale jokes excluded.]
no subject
[Humming, as if that's normal. Then he gets quiet again, sighing out.]
Think he's dead too anyway, so so much for that.

[It's like? No one listens?]
I told you died like, uh [ counting in his head. ] Like, a lot! Like two dozen times. Did I mention that?
