Aftertale/Genocide Sans x Reaper Sans

Idk what the fuck this is gonna be around or about but LETS GO

~Reaper's P.O.V.~

I watched silently as my latest 'victim', as Life likes to call it, completely dies underneath me. His name was Ednieh. Contrary to popular belief, I actually do care about who I reap. Ednieh would be very... eccentric at times but everyone who knew him loved it. The only thing he cared about was the well being of his boyfriend, no matter how annoying he seemed at the time. His cause of death was a car accident. It took almost a week until his family finally took life support off. I'm just lucky that his boyfriend wasn't here. I don't think I could handle that again. I sigh and check him off the list. The only good part of any human innovation was that less people were dying then they used to. Now, many people live long lives. Not necessarily happy but long lives. I look to see who I reap next, it's a Sans who prefers to be called Geno. I️ snap my fingers and teleport to Geno.

~Geno's P.O.V.~

I hear someone teleport behind me and turn around quickly, knowing no one should be here. No one else should be able to get here... right? The skeleton was a half a skull taller than me and wore a black robe. His aura gave death and misery a new meaning. Almost as if he was death himself. "W-who are you?" The Skelton sighed before answering, "I am Death. Most people call me Reaper though." I shiver from the realization that I'm going to die.

No.

Not like this.

"No." I say almost angrily "What?" Death seems more surprised then shocked. "I'm not dying. Not like this." I stand tall and strong. At least i try to. Fear runs though my veins as I glare at Death. It feels like a staring contest with Death. Who would've known this could happen? Death sighs and looks away. "Look... I'm sorry... I don't choose these things. It's your choice if you want to leave or not. If you don't, well normally you'll go insane and try to kill people before you get sent to hell. There's the rare case or two of those who keep living and stay sane but it's almost impossible. I'm just here to lead you." (May or may not have done Supernatural into this... Sorrynotsorry) I watch as Death's magic flares in his hand, showing me that I still have a choice. "I... I can't die in here... I... I can't die." Death nods and looks at me. "It's your choice. I can't do anything without you being okay with it." I nod back and take a deep breath before responding, "It's impossible for anyone to die here. I've tried, trust me. This... this... DETERMINATION... it's like a drug you can't get off of. No matter how hard you try, it never goes. Never fades, never stops, never leaves. Even if I truly wanted to die, I can't. My SOUL would just form again and me bring me back." Death sits down and looks at me, waiting for me to complete my words. "I'm sorry if I disappointed you Death. I really am." Death shakes his head quickly.

~Deaths P.O.V.~ (I did a bad and started doing it in his P.O.V... rip me)

"I'm not disappointed. Not at all. You'd be surprised at how many actually want to stay here. Even with the almost certainty of going insane. I'll be honest and say it's a first for someone to not be able to die. But why would you be on the list in the first place? Why would the Gods take their time to put you on the list if you can't die? As a joke to me?" I bury my hands in my face as I contemplate as of why Geno's even on my list. "List?" I sigh and begin to explain, "I have a list of those who die on that day. You were on it. I don't know why, I don't know much actually. I'm pretty much left in the dark about most things." I chuckle at my pun before I hear Geno speak, "Yeah. Me too. Guess it's hard to see when your eyes are closed." I snort at the pun given and retort, "True. Maybe I'll be able to double up my thoughts with you." Geno laughs and continues, "Or go solo and see just fine." I begin to laugh, something I haven't done in a while, "Ain't two skulls better then one?" Geno's laugh. Oh stars... it's amazing... "Maybe we've cut our stories down to the bone." (PLEASE SAY SOMEONE KNOWS WHERE THAT'S FROM) My eyes brim with tears of laughter before I shoot back, "Tiba honest, you've got skill." "Hope you're not too sternum on the puns." "Who said I don't have a punny bone?" "No body." "Seems like nothing much gets under your skin then." Geno was in a fit of giggles, unable to respond. "Oh stars! It's been ages since I've laughed like that!" I smile and nod, agreeing. "Yeah. Me too." "Thanks Reaper." I looked at Geno in confusion. "For making me laugh like that. It's been a really long time, I can't even remember when I laughed like that. Or even smile really." I just nod and look away. "I can relate. My... job. It's so stressful and there's no reason for me to try and make the dying happy... I've done it for a while and the other gods got really mad... They'll probably be upset that you're still alive too..." I trail off and look at the list again, rereading Geno's name over and over. "Why put someone on here who can't die?" That thought kept repeating itself as I read the name. "Why? There's no reason. Even I wouldn't do this." I felt a hand on my shoulder, making my thoughts stop and  flinched from the unexpected contact. "Don't touch me." I saw Geno back up, worried. "S-Sorry..." I sighed and looked down. "No. I'm sorry. My touch kills people..." Geno winced from the fact and looked away. "S-Sorry..." I shake my head quickly. "No. It's my fault. I should've told ya. I gotta go and finish my list. Can I come visit when I'm free?" Geno's eye turned into a star as he quickly nodded. "Yeah! No problem!" I chuckle and wave before teleporting to the next person.
