*To V*

No thankee kindly..

*Sighs*

*To Death* Well sense the family members are here, why not let the girl see them for a bit? Then you may take them to the clearing at the end of the path...

*Looks at V*

Death: Oh, I made myself look like this for Wade. I could be a skeleton, old man in a dank hat, a horse, a dog, pretty much anything. Although I do prefer this form over the rest. Makes people around me uncomfortable for another reason that isn't because I am the personification of mortality.

*Nods*

Death: I will. I just need her to know that they're not going to be here permanently.

Oh. That makes sense I suppose. Would you like tea?

OT: I think you'll find it difficult to stop Marethyu when he wants something. The... being is responsible (SPOILERS from the book series)

Sure. Thank you.

*Stands next to V and waits for him to pour a cup*

*Looks at OT*

Pfft. Easy. I just have to cut the strings of fate that keep him alive. I AM Hades, in case you didn't know...And pretty much most other god/godesses of Death.

*Wade sighs*

DP: At least I didn't give you Spiderman Underoos. Although if I found those, I'd be wearing them.

Marethyu is a tad beyond you. I mean I don't think he can kill you, but the hook stops him from dying no matter what. He is immortal in every sense of the word

Nobody is beyond me. I'll find a way. I always do.

*Looks at DP*

And I appreciate the clothing. I'm not sure how I forgot to put them on in the first place.

*Shackes head*

I think you do not know the word" immortal", for immortals can be killed... Even if he is a god... Gods die.

*Looks at ZK*

I do not believe we have met. I'm lying of course, I know exactly who you are, but courtesy says I shake your hand before I announce myself.

*Offers a pale, human-like hand to ZK*

*Leo mumbles and goes to practicing making plate legs but can't manage to hold both the gauntlets and plate legs at the same time*

Leo: Feth, come on work with me...

*Continues trying*

*Wade grins*

DP: I think we were a little too busy for worrying where our clothes went.

*Grunak looks confused*

The Black Huntsman. I had never expected to see you.

*Shakes Deaths hand* I am Roland Deschain of Gilead... Yes I suspected who you were as well...

*Looks death straight in the eyes* I shall make it to the Dark Tower before you take me to the clearing... Know this, not even you can stop me.

OOC: I do love Bourne films...

BiC:
*Ra has joined Thoth's and Areop-Enap's conversation
Billy and Black Hawk have challenged Horus to a eating contest. Machiavelli is torn between amusement and disgust. Scatty's laughing with Joan, Francis, Quetz and Huitz. Shakespeare is disgusted and Palamedes is sitting on a chair thinking.*

*Smiles at ZK*

*Leans in closer*

It's a race then. I'll even give you a head start.

*Turns 90 degrees to face the Kroot*

There are many people who do not expect to see me. But luckily, this is one of the few times I don't have to kill somebody.

*Looks at DP*

*Points back to the bedroom*

*Knight is still wondering the forest in thought*

*Amelia has finished her shower, and is now lying back down with Yarrick, completely drenched in water*

Amee: I couldn't be fethed drying off...

OOC Just a side note, right now, Death is 100% mortal. But that don't mean you guys can kill her.
Looking at you ZK.

OOC: And with strange aeons, even Death may die...

BIC:
*Pours a cup of tea for Death*

*Wade smiles and gives a mock salute*

DP: Sure beats listening to Papa Murphy's complaining about my looks.

*Grunak nods*

As long as you are not here for Boran. I cannot stop you if he is to go, but I do not want to see that day come anytime soon.

*Hands the cup to Death and stands up*
Who is this Pa Pa Murphy?

*Wade gestures to Niccolo*

DP: Some Italian. Good pizzas, by the way. I'd love to explain more, but my people need me.

*Wade turns and goes back to the bedroom*

Grunak: Most human food is not that good. Cooking it ruins the taste.

Is he always that... Abrupt?

I do not know. I have only been here a little longer than you. I am just making sure the room does not kill itself while Boran is gone, as he put it.

*shakes head*

I am not sure why he chose me, I am unused to humans, and am still struggle with their culture. Maybe this is a lesson. Shaper Sok would do that. Or he is thinking poorly, because of his injuries.

Ah. I see. How was your Shaper injured?
I... honestly do not know why I am here. I was killed by some Fusion Piranhas, and instead of being placed in the foam for the next game, I am here.

OT: Obviously the Shaper thought you'd be best for the job.

He was fighting dark skitarii while the Machine God was being banished. A skitarii stabbed him through the back. Boran made sure to kill the skitarii though, the Shaper does not like loose ends.

*gives a small smile*

He also said that he doubted this room would catch the skitarii if he didn't kill it. I hear they are not good with catching killers. But what is this foam? I did not think the Tau believed in the afterlife.

*looks at OT*

Thank you for the kind words. I still find it odd. Others are more experienced with humans, but I will not argue with his orders. He always has a reason for his actions.

*Grins*

*To death* Yes I guess it is...

*Begins rolling another cigarette*

OOC: Irony lol

Foam. You know... It's this softness that you are pressed into when you die, or at the end of a battle. And then you are taken out of the foam, and put into battle again. It is a cycle.

*shakes head*

I have not died, so I can not speak for that, but I have not felt a softness after a battle. Mostly it is a soreness mixed with adrenaline, followed by a meal if the battle went well. But I believe I should check on Boran, I do not like being away from him for long.

OOC: I'm off for the night.

OOC: See yah BJ

*Marla and Maria walk down the Forrest path to where the "dead" family are.*

*marla*
What's going on? These people fell?
*Maria*
If this is some kind of cruel trick...

Ot: Not at all. Marethyu rescued them from various worlds. He couldn't get everyone though... But thank Milo, it was all his idea.
