This is straight up a downgrade. No one would dare to mess with us if I had any sort of power here. No one messes with Death. Those who do don't get away unscathed. No one takes me seriously anymore. I feel so useless and pathetic in this body. I can't do my job here. What is my purpose here? I suppose a break from my responsibilities is nice. Or at least it should be. I always feel like there's something more I should be doing. But death isn't a kind subject. I know I should be taking the opportunity to recuperate.

We're actually approachable now, and the break is needed. We actually have the time to rest and process for once. And it's extremely difficult to form casual relationships as Death and The Grim Reaper. It's not a kind role to have been thrown into. Being able to relax and have fun and make friends for one is greatly appreciated. Not being taken seriously is definitely frustrating, but, honestly, I get sick and tired of being completely unapproachable. It's not like we're stuck here all the time. We can still go back home. It's really not that bad. We don't have to be Death and The Grim Reaper all the time. We're allowed to just be [names redacted] sometimes. Sorry, that message wasn't so much to our audience, was it?

I can breathe, I have (at least a little) more mobility, I'm in a bit less pain, I have a proper home, I'm not treated like a horrible monster every time I step outside, people don't look at me like I'm some kind of abomination (usually), and so on and so forth. Unfortunately, people still think I'm a demon. Sick and tired of people trying to exorcize me. At least most people can't perceive me, I suppose. But no one takes me seriously anymore. I've completely lost any amount of intimidation power I once had. And, though it's nice that this body isn't a walking broken corpse, I've lost all of my nonhuman abilities. Then again, maybe that's for the better. Not entirely sure how not to hurt people when in a heightened emotional state, yet.

A term under the vesility umbrella in which many or all parts of one's identity are affected by the dead, being dead, or becoming dead. The individual may also have Cotards but it is not a requirement.
