[11] - [Video] Grave digger

[failedcreator]

[Victor sounds a bit nervous about putting out an open channel. He's still covered in dirt and you can see his shovel lent against a tree in the distance

So. You dig graves?

[failedcreator]

[He's so excited, someone is actually making small talk with him.] Yes! After the person dies, I clean the body for the funeral. Then after the priest has done the service, I bury the body.

[no_nanomites]

Is there money in that?

[failedcreator]

Not a lot. It's my father's business. Someone has to do it. Stop them from getting lonely. [PAUSE PAUSE. He did not mean to say that. He spends a lot of time sitting around talking to random graves.]

[ichoosefight]

The carnival's nothing to be scared of. Just good clean fun.

[failedcreator]

Oh. [He thinks that she's implying that he shouldn't go, by the mention of 'clean'.] Well. Yes. I'll keep that in mind.

[ichoosefight]

I hope you enjoy yourself~

[failedcreator]

Do you really?

[actuallyagolem]

Those graves aren't from anything like that. There's been no massacre in this town ever.

[failedcreator]

Then what are they from?

[actuallyagolem]

Have you ever gone to look at them? Like really look?

[failedcreator]

Yeah, I have. [He talks to them. Daily.] Most don't have names, right?

[empirical_data]

Don't believe that. People are afraid of things they don't understand. Everyone down here are people too, not wreckless monsters [mostly,] they just know how to put on a good show.

[failedcreator]

And there's nothing quite like a good show. [Victor sighs.] I'm not sure why we shouldn't enjoy ourselves why we live. We all go to the dust, soon enough. [He pauses.] Of course, that's not a good thing to say. [He stops talking abruptly.]

[empirical_data]

Well, you know, I like to say the same thing. But with a little more focus on the living part. So... why don't you step away from the dead people and I could show you some of my very much living friends.

I'll even offer you a discount. Because, well... they need food and I can't really let people in for free. [Cue sort of a nervous laugh here, but the poor guy looks so sad.]

[failedcreator]

I'll come and visit, for a while. But I'll have to come back soon. They need me here. [It's unclear whether he's referring to the living or the dead, but he actually means the dead.]

Sure, that's fine. I don't normally spend my money on much. There's mainly Mr Maguire's bar, but there's too many people down there for me to go.

[rass_bestie]

Oh, my dear fellow, do come to my show! I'll guarantee it'll make you forget your troubles.

[failedcreator]

What type of things happen in your show?

[rass_bestie]

It will allow you to see beyond the confines of this time and this small world, a window into sights you've never seen before!

[failedcreator]

Well, that does sound rather exciting. What kind of sights are these?
