Twenty Ninth Wind

Fooled ya!

I bet you all thought I was really dead, right? Well, one of the hibou pulled me aside and asked me if I wanted to participate in a curse BEHIND the scenes, so I agreed! They got me all made up like a corpse and gave me this pill that helped me breath without my chest moving! I was so convincing I thought I was a zombie walking along in the hidden back halways, ha ha!

Welp, I AM alive, so no worries, everyone!

There is a flaw with your position, Miss Maxwell. You are not my subordinate. That person is.

Regardless of what you might believe, or what the behavior of certain others might indicate, we Death Gods hold our station with a certain pride. If those owls have found a way to trick even us into accepting a false death, then we must find a way to see the truth behind the trick. For us, to be unable to tell the difference between the living and the dead is perhaps the single largest disgrace we could suffer.

I am curious, however. Why are you defending him? Certainly his nature has become evident to you by now.

...Because I had a part in the trickery. And my Papa raised me to own up to what I do in life, good or bad.

I see.

Regardless, you cannot "own up" for the mistakes of another. Certainly not in this circumstance.

...but...

Please, Mr. Spears. Grell may be...well he's Grell, but I'm not about to let a light hearted prank be made into punishment for him.

Honestly. You fail to realize that you have absolutely no say in the matter, and I will not change my mind.

Whatever it was intended to be, it has become what it is, and must be responded to accordingly.

...very well, sir.
