Who: Undertaker and ERRYONE
Broadcast: All
Action: Goldstone
When: After calibrations/shuffle


[Welcome to the parlor. Or at least, it would be the parlor if it was back in his home. Either of the ones before. For now, it's just Undertaker's modest little abode on the good ship Goldstone, not too unlike many of yours who stand witness to it now. Maybe he'll add to it over time. He has heard audiences like to get to know people, and what better way to do so than to personalize?]

[Alas. Without much means to add such customizations (yet) you get only to see his smiling face, complete with the scar crossing right over it. How's that for unique?]


We're a lively bunch here, aren't we? Starting things off with a bang, visiting people in their past lives with or without them knowing. Just like the good old days, back in the academy. [There's a giggle, one which might or might not put a shudder down spines. He's an... unusual git and he knows it, complete with the mortician's facade and, some might recognize, the overly cockney accent.]

Ah, we're going to get along just fine, I think. Too bad they've not made use of the smarts I was given, [He flicks a hand.] lab support or something other, bandages I suppose. Wouldn't be much use to me anyway, but you'll find me on the Goldstone, should you have need of my assistance. Look for Undertaker.

[And, with a tip of his hat, the video feed ends.]

That'd have to be face-to-face, my dude. They're monitoring the airwaves here - all the time. So, y'know, be careful of what you say on or near this thing if you wanna keep a secret.
abracafcku: (Hell yeah son)

[personal profile] abracafcku 2019-03-13 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
Well, lucky for you that I'm easy to find. I'm the head chef at the Iskaulit's one and only source for a damn fine meal: the Melting Pot. Come in, ask for Taako, and we can have a nice little chat over, I dunno, whatever it is you like to eat.
abracafcku: (Sassy boi)

[personal profile] abracafcku 2019-03-15 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
Everything that the old proprietor set up on the menu like shepherd's pie, potstickers, challah, waffles, pasta - just about anything.

And? [He smirks.] I can do requests if you give me enough of a heads up and a general idea of the recipe in case it's something unique from your world or whatever. Costs extra, but isn't that little luxury of getting a taste of home worth it?
abracafcku: (Oh so smug)

[personal profile] abracafcku 2019-03-17 05:40 am (UTC)(link)
Bars are close by enough that we can get shit sent over if that's what you want. Otherwise, we have the usual selection. Been trying to get better coffee and tea in, but I'm not wasting my spell slots on transmuting that.

[He's already tired enough from all the other things he has to do.]

Can get dessert shakes and other things going though - Mickey's got the cold thing down pat.
abracafcku: (Clear confidence)

[personal profile] abracafcku 2019-03-19 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
More of a-- [Fuck, what's a less fancy dish?? -tavern food kinda guy? I can get that, no probs.

[He likes the fancy things because it brings in more money, but he also knows that food is meant to be enjoyed by everyone. Higher quality ingredients, but with simple recipes can sometimes satisfy far more than some dumb luxury dish.]

But come on by anytime. There's usually someone in the kitchen.
abracafcku: (Smoozing)

[personal profile] abracafcku 2019-03-21 01:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Ohhhh it is loads better. I wouldn't serve anything that didn't provide a top-notch culinary experience, my dude. I got a reputation to uphold.
abracafcku: (Laughing my cute ass off)

[personal profile] abracafcku 2019-03-22 11:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[Taako stops suddenly and then starts laughing.]

Oh my gods, I thought it was weird you'd have the same name. Fuck! Yeah I know the kid. He's already slated to start work here.
abracafcku: (Sassy boi)

[personal profile] abracafcku 2019-03-24 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
As long as you buy somethin' I don't care what you do, even if you just sit there and watch the kid like a creepo.

[Not that Taako has any room to talk. He and his party hang with a 10 year old sometimes. Or was he 12? Taako never could remember.]

No idea about his work ethic yet, but I have him on dishwasher duty so we'll see how the little earl fares.
abracafcku: (Put it on blast)

[personal profile] abracafcku 2019-03-26 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
It'll make two of us then. Never seen an earl do an honest day's work in their lives.

[Taako shrugs and waves his hands absently. Earls and dukes and lords all like to sit at desks and look important, but the real work is always left to their underlings. It's going to be interesting to make someone so lofty scrape plates and sling dishrags. And maybe a little amusing. He'll have to see.]
abracafcku: (Can you believe it?)

[personal profile] abracafcku 2019-03-27 01:09 am (UTC)(link)
Ugh admin.

[Taako rolls his eyes.]

Yeah sounds about right for what earls do. How someone can put up with all that drudgery day in and day out is beyond me. I'd die from boredom.
abracafcku: (Oh so smug)

[personal profile] abracafcku 2019-03-29 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
They might get a papercut - it's such a hazardous line of work.

[Taako snorts in derision and then shrugs.]

But, to be fair, if I were living in the lap of luxury like that, I'd do absolutely jack shit ever. What about you?
abracafcku: (Leave me alone with my sandwich)

[personal profile] abracafcku 2019-03-31 11:47 am (UTC)(link)
[Corpses are pretty par for the course for undertakers, so Taako lets most of that go up until the very end.

Some soul what needed reaping?

There's a brief pause and then he takes a sharp breath.
]

Hold the fucking phone. Stone. Tablet. Whatever.

Reaping souls? Are you- Are you fucking Death? Am I seriously talking to another Grim Reaper? Are you kidding me?
