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.]

Oh, yes. We've all got ambitions, dreams. But what if you did live forever in a loophole like that, knowing you could die at any minute and wake up again later, no consequence? The only motivation for you not to die would be the pain of death, I suppose. That's not enough to discourage some people. There's quite a bit of luxury in knowing what should be isn't permanent. Nothing is precious anymore if you have all the time in the world to get it back.

There's quite a bit of existential horror, too? Like, who the fuck wants to keep dying over and over again forever? That sounds like hell.

[A giggle.] All depends on how you die. I'd prefer to fall asleep one night and let it hit me there and not realize it, after I'm all good and ready. Beats getting shot to death in the middle of the street or drowning. But what would you wake up to after the deed is done? There's something to consider.

Well, seeing as I know the Grim Reaper? I'd probably wake up to his handsome face and then get yeeted into the Astral Sea. Unless I make some kinda deal with his bird mom and then somehow? I dunno? End up not? Who knows. Taako's not ready to go beyond the veil anytime soon and find out.
