*the Borgia family history: a fun history lesson put to the tune of the Addams family theme song by the BBC history show, "Horrible Histories"-because I felt like it*
Setting: where we left Bay in the Neitherworld...

     I check the two clocks on the wall behind us as BJ and I finish up the files on his kids, only two months left before the kids start school, which means I have to finish up. Beetlejuice has left with the wrist monitor on to go and see his 'strange and unusual family,' I told him him I'd be dropping by soon to observe his kids and to speak with Lydia. I hurry to put away all the case files with the exception the two she needs to get into the neitherworld prison and hurries to get over there so she can talk to them. She is allowed in immediately upon telling the warden who she is, why she's there and that Juno sent her. They escort her to the visitation area and she puts down the files on the table and her bag next to her on the floor, she pulls out a notepad and pencil as she waits for them.

"You've got ten minutes," the warden tells her

"I have all the time it takes for me to be done," she tells them with a sharp glare

"..." they just nod, roll their eyes and leave them alone

"Lucrezia Paolo and Arturo Casiano," she says as she looks over their files again and not at them

"Si," the both reply quietly

"Ello, I'm Bailey Kripke," she says finally looking up and extending a hand out to them, "I'm yer new caseworker."

"No touching," the warden snaps

"..." Bay glares at him, causing him to shut up instantly-everyone in the neitherworld knows not to mess with Lady Death, "y'all can just call me Bay," she tells them once done shaking their hands, "I'm ere ta talk ta y'all bout yer son," she tells them straight forward, "I need any and all information y'all can gimme on im," she adds in before leaning over the table so that only they can hear, "another case like yers has come up in another universe and I can't disclose any details ta ya, but if y'all help me out, I'll arrange fer a court hearin fer y'all with a judge so as to try and get y'all released."

"..." their face fall into shock, and disbelief

"I ain't gonna be able ta get it changed so dat ya can see and interact with yer son," she admits to them, "I would be able ta if one of y'all were still alive," she explains to them, "but since that's not the case, the most I can do is try ta get y'all free from eternity of imprisonment."

"..." they both remain quiet and still in shock

"Have we gotta a deal?" She asks them

"..." they just nod in agreement

"First question," she starts as she readies her pencil to write one her pad, "what yer names?"

"Full names?" Arturo asks in a heavy Mexican accent

"That would be preferred," Bay replies simply

"Arturo Rodrigo Casiano," he answers first

"Lucrezia Zita Juliet Florence Paolo," the woman answers in a thick Italian accent

"Alright...thank ya," Bay says as she write it all down, "and what is y'all's son's name-full name?"

"Fernando Giovanni (Gee-O-van-née) Gioffre (Gee-off-free) Cesare (shey-se-ree) Casiano," Lucrezia tells her

"Regular Borgia family names y'all got goin there," Bay makes note as she writes it down

"Common names in Italy," she tell her
