thinkin about death being a teacher in the school. in a lot of ways hes kind of just a joke. like haha yeah the god of death just works here. nobody knows why. hes just chillin and he wont leave. what are you gonna do about it? hes god.

but also like. hes very close friends with dara. theyve known each other for decades and he wont leave. death never leaves her. keeps following her. and he just wont let her die. people have died around her for so long so many times and yet shes still here the same as she was. her lack of aging was not his doing but he does try so hard to keep her going, keeps pushing her to keep waking up every day and moving forward. he wont let her die. i dont think he would know how to let her die if it came down to it.

death doesnt know a thing about grief. he sees other people experience it but he doesnt know what it is really. hes never lost someone hes known. but would it matter if he did? he'll just see them again in the underworld. he doesnt get to care, his entire job is to take them to his house after theyre gone and let them hang out its not a big deal right? but he doesnt let dara die. its just a habit at this point maybe. he doesnt know. he cant examine that. its just the right thing to do, to help her keep going, hed feel bad if he didnt. so the god of death stays in the school because of 1 person that he cant bear to leave

#text #the deathspeaker #death #dara #i think about death A Lot actually hes just hard to talk about for spoiler reasons #but like. man.#nobody else in the world even knows he exists. the secret 9th god works at this 1 school #for the sake of some loser he met 70 years ago?#thats not the only reason but it is the main one #death has always been the most down to earth god. the most human #which is ironic because hes the only god thats never been human #sometimes i wonder if he forgets hes not human #he spends so much time around them. its his job #he knows more about how to be a person than any of the other gods #he acts like them he talks like them he thinks like them #but in the end it doesnt really matter does it. because hes the god of death #and thats not a role he can throw away.#this post feels kinda disjointed sorry its almost 4 am and im just #stream of consciousness style posting rn #death was a joke character. really glad he only stayed a joke for about 2 minutes
