Death Seven: I ALREADY HAVE A JOB YOU KNOW

Nov 20, 2010 18:46

[Filtered to Slugger]

MIGHT I HAVE A WORD WITH YOU?

[Fail!Filtered to Susan/everyone hears this. If you do pick up the phone the voice isn't so much "heard" as it just appears in your head.]

.....I RECEIVED A PHONE CALL FROM THE TOWN THIS MORNING. APPARENTLY I AM SUPPOSED TO BE A HISTORY TEACHER. 

teaching also runs in the family?, family

WHAT DID YOU THINK OF HIM?

He said the town released him then drew him back. He claims no knowledge of how or why.

He also said he had no memory of the town until he returned.

DO YOU BELIEVE HIM?

...

Leaning toward yes.

[Tampering with memories does seem like something Mayfield would do. But if it turns out Edward knows more than he says he does, Slugger will be watching. And, yes, he did catch the misfired filter.]

What grade level are you supposed to teach?

Already am. [Stalking is one of his hobbies, after all.]

[The next thing Death says leaves him with a grin.] High school means higher grade levels, not elevation. The students are older.

[Or so he's observed. Slugger doesn't always go to the right classes or the right school (so long as he's in a classroom at the right times, he doesn't care).]

GOOD.

[He likes his great grandson]

OH, I SEE.

I WONDER IF I CAN JUST TEACH THEM THE HISTORY OF THE DISCWORLD. I DON'T KNOW ANY OF THIS WORLDS HISTORY.

[His latest hobby involves making a list of awful things to hide under Edward's pillow.]

Do it. The other history classes are all the same. [Has sat/slept through almost all of them.]

[Death can't approve of that. He also can't mention that slimy things would probably work well.]

I THINK I WILL. I DO KNOW A LOT ABOUT THAT AT LEAST.

[Seeing as he was there for all of it.]

[There is nothing on his list that isn't somehow slimy.]

Haven't you existed since the dawn of life? [He might have to attend this class of yours, Death. Curiosity compels.]

[Death will act totally oblivious to this planning.]

WHEN THE FIRST LIVING THING DIED, I WAS CREATED. SO YES, FAIRLY SOON AFTER THAT.

[He should. One of Death's classes is totally going to be "Human Belief and why you shouldn't try to murder it, or Why the Assasian's Guild needs to have a better application process."]
