Description
A laugh echoes around the room. It's hauntingly beautiful. “Ah, I find it rather interesting that you want to know about little old me… hmmm… yes. Okay, so be it.”
“My name is as old as time, and perhaps I am just as old. I have existed since time has ticked and the world starred in its own tilt-a-whirl sideshow. I have watched stars burn to their death, and I have witnessed life as we know it drag its nasty claws from the mud just to label itself as evolution. And let me tell you…
You are all fucking idiots.”
“My name is Death. Sure I have a true name, but you all have those fancy fucking phones that could tell you what it is at the drop of a hat so there is no point in me wasting my breath on that detail.”
“I am everywhere and nowhere all at once. I have watched gods fall, cities crumble to dust, and I have to say… I liked the Pleistocene Epoch period the best.” He slowly smirks, a brow raising in tandem. “You had to Google that, didn't you?”
“Enough about modern-day technology and how it fails to compare to the wonders of past eras… before the world’s many apocalypses.” He drums his fingers lazily against his knee as he swivels Vesperis, his scythe because of course you'd name a scythe, between his fingers like she's an extension of himself. “Now, where was I? Right, Me. Ha! How could I have forgotten?”
“Now, you know how I said that I'm everywhere and nowhere?” He sets Vesperis next to him and leans forward. His elbows resting on his knees, hands clasped in front of him. “It was literal. I mean, people die every day, every hour, every waking and resting minute. This body is just a physical vessel. I assumed you’d want to let your gaze linger at something attractive. You know those fancy “GQ” magazines every snot nosed adult has looked at in the doctor's offices. Took creative liberty of course.”
His silver-laden gaze drifts off to the side. “And yet, what does it mean to be Death, Grim, the Reaper, Harbinger…” His voice tails off as if he actually needs to consider this question. “I suppose you could say that I have seen some shit. That's life. It's unfortunate. It's messy. It can be downright depressing. This era? This era is sentient. Understanding yet always misunderstood. A fucking oxymoron if you ask me.”
“But it's the innocent… gods, the innocent, that never deserved to feel the touch of Vesperis. Those that should have lived to see more. To feel more. Have the chance to make a change. It may not be a worldly change… but a change none-the-less… Yet, duty calls.”
He finally sits straight once more, Vesperis finding her way into his grip. “Oh, my. It seems I have let emotion peek through. Whoops! Hahaha… I assure you that won't happen again, darling.”
“I am no god, I am no demon, and, sweetheart, I am certainly no angel. The gods call me an anomaly. I call them putty in the universe's hands. I can create, but destruction is so much sweeter.”
A wink. That smirk. “Still here listening to me ramble on? How quaint. Beautiful even."
