Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

One

"It's disrespectful to sit or stand on graves you know?",
Who was that... a girl? No, a woman. How can she see me? She can't be... no. She's too young, too healthy, she can't be passing.
"Who are you?"
...
"I said it's disrespectful to sit or stand on graves"
I wasn't sitting nor was i standing, hovering would've been more accurate... how had this woman not ran away yet, i mean look at me!
" I'm not doing either of those things"
Who was she.. how was she able to see me, what was going on?
"Yes- you are. I may be partially sighted but I'm not fully blind"
Maybe she couldn't see me then? Oh god what if she comes closer, she'll know I'm a monster. If not yet already.
"I would like to respectfully ask for you to leave me alone please"
...
"Alone, what a funny word."
What... what is wrong with this woman?
"Excuse you?"
"Oh nothing... although, you shouldn't be alone, not in a graveyard at this hour, the departed don't like it very much"
How would she know that.. she's a mere human. What they don't like is the fact that a monster like me has to take them away from their life to the other side.
"Is that so?"
May as well amuse her
"It is so"
She sounds closer.
...
Wow. She's so close and yet she still hasn't run. I'm examining her now, she seems calm, yet.. sad? Why is she sad. With a beautiful face like that.. wait- what am i thinking,stop that!
"Y-you said you were partially sighted?"
"Mhm"
"So.. how much can you actually see"
Hopefully she just sees me as a shadow or something.
"Everything and more than a person who can see out of both eyes"
What..
....
"You are beautiful"
huh?! How can she find me beautiful! I'm hideous!
"You must be fully blind mortal one, if you could see, you'd know I'm a monster"
"I know not what you are, but i can see you, and i see nothing wrong with what I'm looking at. Although- human- you are not. You are certainly beautiful."
She can see me? Is she crazy then? Perhaps delusional...
"Prove that you can see me, your compliment seems impossible to give to such a being as myself"
"You are rather tall, long tail, long and dark fingers that you are currently using to pluck that poor roses petals.You have a skull face, almost like an animal, and yet you have the cutest ears. Oh...And we can't forget your cape."
The rose is rather mangled now. The once elegant flower, robbed of its beauty and spayed along the miserable grounds of the deceased.
...
"Why have you not yet ran?"
"What is there to run from?"
"Lady, i know not your name, or your intent, but as a human, you shouldn't be able to see me, and when you do, you should fear me."
"Well that sounded like a riddle, why should i fear you? For your appearance? Good sir, beauty is with the eye of the beholder, and my eye sees you as beautiful"
Sir? I deserve no such title.
"Please, call me Nyxen"
"Nyxen, how formal. I would like to call you Nyx"
A pet name? Really.. what does this woman want? Ugh no use fretting over a nickname.
"It is not only the appearance you speak of but it is the time of which i appear to the mortal races, that which somehow you have broken"
"I know not of what you mean.."
"You are not dying young one, so why can you see me?"

"dying? Why on Earth would would i be dying?"

" You aren't and that's why i'm rather confused as to why you can see me, but that is a question best answered another day, i must go to work, have a safe night ma'am"

hopefully she just accepts that, I've spent too long speaking to her and i have a job to do. However, now i'm leaving her, i'm feeling more alone than before..

" You care not to know my name?"

Why would i need to know her name?

...

"next time"

next time will be the day its time for her to pass on..

"when will next tim-"

that was close.
