It's the heart, liver, lungs of a sheep seasoned and cooked in the beasts own stomach.

You must be worthy to eat such a delectable meal.

[In other words no. No it's not as good as ice cream.]

...Ew. I'm glad I'm not worthy then.

Maybe someday you will be. All good things come to those who wait. Or so I've heard.

Study and toil, and then perhaps you will be worthy.

I-It's okay, I don't like studying! I'll just be my unworthy self, thanks.

Are you SURE?

[9 foot tall spectral looming time.]

Yeah, yeah, it's fine!

[Dude you are really scary when you loom. Maybe you should try that more often.]

[And back down to normal size.]

Very well. But remember that it was YOU who chose unwisely.

[You know, about eating that aforementioned stomach lung thing.]

Right. I know, I'm not smart...

[Ryoji doesn't think of himself as intelligent, but he at least is happy enough that he knew not to want to eat that... concoction.]

Perhaps you have just not had the proper schooling. What is it you want to get out of this measly existence?

... I don't exactly have an existence any more. When I was alive, I just wanted to experience new things, with people I care about.

And now that you're not alive? That is no reason to shirk yourexistence.

Well, I... don't really deserve an existence. Or any experiences.

And why is that pray tell?

Um... it's a little hard to explain...

[Seriously, you'd think an all-powerful magician would've picked up on something weird about him by now.]

[For being an all powerful wizard he's a little short in the smarts department. And he lives with Soldier which is probably slowly draining his braincells.]

Go on.

Well, ten years ago, in my world, a group of scientists developed an experiment to try to seal Death in a physical form. They succeeded, though the monster escaped and had to be sealed away inside a young child.

That child grew up, and... well, long story short, the being inside him developed a human form.

And... that's what I am.

[He tries to tell the story quickly. He doesn't really like talking about it, and he's certain now that Merasmus's opinion of him will change. Either he'll hate him, or maybe worship him... or maybe be like his friends and just accept him. It's hard to deal with that kind of change.]

You are the manifestation of death itself?

Hmm..

[He rubs his chin thoughtfully.]

That have any perks?

[Perks, ha. Like Ryoji can even focus on perks.]

I don't get hurt easily, and when I do, it heals quickly. I suppose my other form can attack if I am in danger...

But the flaws are greater than any perks.

Such things always have their downfalls, nothing is free.

[As if he knows.]

Other form?

Oh, um, it's called Thanatos. It's... a little creepy.

But serves its purpose.

..assuming its purpose is to be creepy.

Its original purpose was probably to represent my true self. I don't recall if I looked like that before... I think it was a little different.

Eventually, though, my friend used me in that form to fight for him.

I ... er, you lost me again. People can use you to fight? Are you some sort of familiar?

I had one of those, it was a giant floating eye, until that abomination of a roommate of mine blew it up.

Sort of. My friends could summon demons known as Personas, which represented their inner strength. I was one of them.

... A-Ah, yeah, that sounds similar to what my friends have.

[Although Ryoji is grateful he wasn't blown up.]

So you're not just Death, you're also a summoned spell? Your worlds magic is incredibly strange and distorted.

I like it!
