Figures. I hope I’m not causing you too much trouble.

Not at all! This is my job, after all. Here, walk with me. *she takes a step, looking back to see if he’s following, smiling a little.*

Interesting. -A shame I can’t experiment with this. The things knowing what comes after death could do for science…

Oh, you probably wouldn’t remember if you came back. *Unconcerned, she jumps down onto the track and starts walking down the tunnel.*

I assume that’s the case, since I- ah- don’t remember seeing you earlier.

Yep. *They’re coming up on the next station. Time to send Kirk back! She doesn’t want to let him die.* It was nice meeting you, Kirk. Just.... try to be a little more careful, okay?

i’m doing GREAT thanks

you guys SUCK i’m getting like $20 dollars worth of fries and i’m not fucking sharing

Do you want some chicken nuggets too? I have plenty. 

you’re the only person i respect rn chicken nuggets would be great

*giggling a little, she grins.* Yeah, I get that. I’ve been super busy lately so I’m more tired than bored, but, y’know how it is. *she’s not actually. eating anything. can she even eat??*

oh yeah i really get that. everyone from central are on vacation or something so i’ve just been hanging out on the watchtower but like. they’re on vacation too :/ *he’s eating pretty lazily for him, which basically just means that a handful of fries disappears every few seconds*

Mmhm! I’ve been dealing with the fallout of a younger deity trying to cut in on my territory. It’s been surprisingly stubborn.

yeesh. sounds like a pain. wanna talk about it or something?

Nah, not really. Half of it wouldn’t make sense, anyway. *she grins. it’s that kind of grin that people that know far more than they say grin. it’s also very kind.*

i get that a lot! *he smiles back. by now, the food is about half gone. he lifts a box of fries and anles it towards her.* you want any?

Nah, on second thought, I ate earlier. Besides, you need them more than I do. Thanks though!

thanks, uh- you’re welcome? i don’t know what the proper response is. *he considers a moment, looking very introspective. just for a moment.* sorry? maybe? food is good so i was probably right on thank you.

*She only grins more.* You’re welcome! Stay safe, okay? *She pats his arm, and then, taking a step forwards, she’s gone.*

so hows it goin everybody

Guess the good thing is you can do a triple funeral and save money.

That’s not funny, Harvey.

I’m not trying to be funny. You can’t keep us in the morgue forever.

…I know. *sighs* I know. I just… don’t want to bury you in case you come back like you have before. But if you don’t come back soon… I’m afraid I’ll have no choice.

I’m not coming back Jim.

…you’re not? Do you know that for a fact? *tears up, trying not to cry*

Oh, he is. I’ve just been very busy trying to track down the- person that’s messing with my realm.
