[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?,

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?

THEY SAID SOMETHING ABOUT A ...HIGH SCHOOL? I ASSUME IT'S ON A MOUNTAIN..

[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).]

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.

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

I THINK I WILL. I DO KNOW A LOT ABOUT THAT AT LEAST.
[Seeing as he was there for all of it.]

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

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."]
