[Are you a member of Death clan that has figured out Grandma usually has some sort of treat in the house? Well... yeah, she's making brownies]

[If Death knows you, be it from home or from Mayfield, she's showing up at your door]

How's everything holding up?

[Around Town 2]

[And if she doesn't know you, she's hitting up new houses on her makeup sales route. As always, she'll talk to anyone who happens to answer the door.]

Hi, do you have any interest in makeup?

Oh, anything. What I'm wearing, my features, what species I appear to be. Mostly I try to keep it reasonable for who I'm talking to though.

Re: 2~

[watchthenails]

Even your clothes? That is impressive. All of this sounds very impressing.

Re: 2~

[bread_goes_bip]

I find most people feel a lot more comfortable talking to someone who looks familiar.

Re: 2~

[watchthenails]

That is true. But if everyone looked the same, how would you ever get used to those who are different?

Ah, if you met, say, a dinosaur, would you change into one as well to make it more comfortable? Would you be able to communicate with it if you did? [ But y'know, back in his own world, Tezuka's tennis made the dinosaurs go extinct. Sort of. ]

Re: 2~

[bread_goes_bip]

That's what I did, with the dinosaurs, yes.

[watchthenails]

Oh, how fascinating. Do tell me more. What have you seen during your life?

Would you like some tea?

Re: 2~

[bread_goes_bip]

Tea would be lovely.

I'm ten billion years old. So basically... everything.

[ Taking her to the kitchen, he pulls out a chair for her. ]

Here you go. And that is a very long time.

[ He starts to prepare the tea, waiting for the water to boil. ]

So you have seen humans turn into what they are today?

Re: 2~

[bread_goes_bip]

[She takes a seat gladly]

I have. It's always been interesting to watch.

Re: 2~

[watchthenails]

It makes me wonder what comes next. Will you see that as well?

[ He takes out two cups, preparing the tea once the water boils. He puts one of them in front of her as he sits down by the table. ]

Re: 2~

[bread_goes_bip]

I will. I'm in this for the long haul.

Re: 2~

[watchthenails]

Oh? How long have you been in this town?

Re: 2~

[bread_goes_bip]

Here... about a year and a half now. Not that long in the grand scheme of things, but it's been... strange.

Re: 2~

[watchthenails]

Still, that is quite some time, considering people come and go so often here. Was it odd to be a normal human?

Re: 2~

[bread_goes_bip]

A bit. I've been mortal before, but never for more than a day at a time. Sleep took some getting used to.

Re: 2~

[watchthenails]

That is an odd thought for someone who has to sleep to live. [ He means himself, of course. ] For how long did you stay human this time then?

Re: 2~

[bread_goes_bip]

It's been a gradual transition. Things started coming back after a few months, but I'm still not fully myself, or I wouldn't be here.

Re: 2~

[watchthenails]

Oh? Do you mean you would be able to get away from here? Or something else entirely?

Re: 2~

[bread_goes_bip]

Well... when I'm fully myself, I can be everywhere. I have to be.

Re: 2~

[watchthenails]

Ah, I see. That sounds quite complicated. And like a lot of obligations.

Re: 2~

[bread_goes_bip]

Oh, it's a full time job, no doubt about that.
