💐 This is my two second soap box to really appreciate ya’ll being patient with my shenanigans. I do appreciate it.

don't be boring , everyone who says that always dies .

❝ — Then I have very little to fear. ❞ Merrick saw his own obeisance to the prospect of undying as a bit of tragedy. In life , he viewed his magic like a healer saw the sick , as a warden of his own influence with every burden of responsibility to honor the sacred balance between the living & the dead. It was his duty to ensure the caretaking of his undead charges , a care he did not uphold in respect to his own immortality.

❝ What's one more , amongst others ? ❞ He did not intend for his curtness to sound so cutting , but there was only so much delicate decorum he could afford to the situation. A deep breath is drawn , ❝ We should keep moving. I'd rather not catch another death out here. ❞

I cannot help it I crave vibrancy in psd's.

To be completely honest , I like seeing new oc blogs crop up in the rpc. I like seeing what characters people come up with , regardless on if they use mods or not.

so , you're the great Merrick Bey Al - Kursi

Great , a word here that , when spoken , meant : your father precedes you. Lithe hands fold , he had always had a way of making himself the smallest thing in the room. Shoulders turn away , his limbs drawn in close , a body language so embedded by repetition that he scarcely cared to acknowledge it at all. He had inherited his reticent nature & death had done little to alter that. ❝ — I wouldn't use a word so grandiose to describe myself by. . . But without further context , I am forced to interpret that as a compliment. ❞

Truthfully , he dreaded this. This unfortunate guilt by association that seemed to place him on some imaginary pedestal , a silhouette more befitting the son of death surely forms in the mind on that pedestal but no matter what is heard or not heard about this son , it would always be Merrick they come upon. No sickening manifestation of plague , nor a shade composed of some primordial darkness & malintent. A Half-Elf , fully in the flesh , standing in the back of a room to avoid having the people in it acknowledge he was there. ❝ I don't imagine you're here to be fitted. ❞ A pale hand lifts to gesture , as the measurements of a nearby body were being taken for their coffin.

Would you say Death Jr.s face card is . . . Lethal ?

This has been on my mind for long but I’m gonna do this - please reblog this if you’re comfortable with pre-establishing relationships. I do not mean “met at the grocery store two weeks ago” or “have a common friend”, but rather stuff like “have been best friends since kindergrden”, “go for a beer every friday”, “friends with benefits”, “dated in highschool”, “hate each other’s guts because -insert reason-”  etc. Something meaningful (but not necessarily shippy) and I mean with muns/characters you have not interacted with, because I cannot believe I am the only one who prefers jumping right into the heart of the human interaction.

oh , [ name ] . it's just you .

where are you going to run , [ name ] ?

what are you saying ?

why do you think i brought you here ?

you said you believed in my work .

i would kill myself before helping in such a task .

you've been so kind to me , [ name ] .

you can't kill me , [ name ] .

so , you're the great [ name ] .

we all have our little problems .

let's make it your decision , shall we ?

i wish you a week in hell .

why don't you do something about it ?

this is all a test of faith .

i can curse all i want , dammit .

you . turn around .

strangers don't last long here .

the laws of men mean little to me .

i don't need your help .

you stay here . they're trying to kill me .

nice to see you too , [ name ] .

did i do something to you in a past life ?

i hope you do have a heart , [ name ] . because someday i'd like to drive a stake through it .

your reputation precedes you .

i am hollow ! and i will live ... forever .

please , say you will not try again .

do not fear me ... everybody else fears me .

i was unprepared . it won't happen again .

do you understand forgiveness ?

i would rather die than help you .

don't be boring , everyone who says that always dies .

may he rest in peace .

how long has it been , 300 , 400 years ?

you don't remember , do you ?

what exactly is it i am to be remembering ?

it's no surprise you would know all about me .

we have such history , you and i .

have you ever wondered why you have such horrific nightmares ?

[ name ] , it's alright , i'm taking you home .

what , did you think we haven't tried everything before ?

no one knows how to kill [ name ] .

i could have used that information earlier .

would you like me to refresh your memory a little ?

allow me to ... reintroduce myself .

i think we've overstayed our welcome .

don't give me that look .

you were right . i'm sorry .

monster ? who's the monster here ? i have done nothing wrong !

look , there's still time .

you were right . i'm sorry .

do you have any family , [ name ] ?

if you value your lives , and the lives of your kin , you will kill me .

evil may have created it , may have left its mark on it , but evil does not rule it .

now you know why they call me a murderer .

oh my god ... you've been bitten .

so much trouble ... so much trouble .

now you will become that which you hunted so passionately . may others be as passionate in their hunting of you .

don't worry , god will forgive us .

how many commandments can we break in one day ?

oh my god , you should be terrified .

how does it feel to be a puppet on my string ?

neither of us has ever settled for half .

you make my skin crawl .

i'm not gonna like this , am i ?

one brief moment of pain , and we can be together forever .

you have no heartbeat .

you are nothing but damned bones , and damned souls .

well , that doesn't sound like a good thing .

we don't have a choice . just don't get killed .

you don't understand , it doesn't matter what happens to me .

god is not the only one that can create life .

you can't go until i say you can go , and i say you can go when you're dead !

you're supposed to die .

we are both part of the same great game , [ name ] , we just find ourselves on opposite sides of the board .

you are being used , [ name ] , as was i . but i escaped , so can you .

if you're going to kill someone , kill them . don't stand there talking about it .

all i want is life . the continuation of my kind .

some things are better left forgotten .
