"Welcome to Hell!" Serena tilted her head, baring her clean fangs. "Good afternoon, Alon. You may reincarnate now."
"You're a vampire, huh?" he asked with disinterest, clearly annoyed that he had been materialized to get his orders for his next life, after being executed publicly by the Hero of his life's story... which happened due to Serena reading some cliché book when she was preparing to sew his destiny's threads.
"Yeah, no. Get the hell out of my living room. And don't you dare touch the popcorn in the microwave."
He raised his eyebrows.
"ALON!" she screeched suddenly, making all the hair on his back stand up. "JUST LEAVE ALREADY! I HAVE APPOINTMENTS WITH MANY MORE SOULS!"
"W-Well," he said uncomfortably, "why am I even here?"
"Don't think acting innocent will fool me! I couldn't judge you like Alyssa because you got beheaded and died instantly... but I know you've come here for my popcorn because medieval times don't have microwaves!"
"Alyssa...?" The man's soul shook his head.
"Don't forget her now, you jerk!" Serena shrieked in despair. This was why she hated these dead souls – they came, washed in the River of Forgetfulness, already past their previous memories. "You! I've given you a memory to hold on to too! If you make my Family Drama less eventful – Alon, mark my words – I'll make you into butter popcorn and have you eaten raw!"
Yes, Serena had assigned bits of the previous life to everyone in this family drama to make it more interesting. After all, these characters had no assigned fate in this life.
"Popcorn when raw are seeds, not popcorn. Get your facts checked."
"THAT WAS NOT THE POINT!" This man was so disgraceful – why was he even the Black Duke! "Just leave already! H-Huh? AAAH! MY POPCORN – WAIT HERE FOR A MOMENT!"
"You say 'Leave!' and then you scream 'Wait!'. What do you even want me to do?"
"WHY ARE YOU SUCH A DENSE CHARACTER?"
And so, half of Serena's quality popcorn time was wasted on a stupid soul who had to come to her living room, screaming. Alon was now permanently in her Blacklist.
Upon discovering her popcorn burnt, Serene fumed in rage. "I'M NOT MAKING YOU A MILLIONAIRE MAIN MALE CHARACTER ANYMORE! YOU'RE GOING TO EARN YOURSELF! ALSO, YOU GET NO POPCORN!"
That was the real roots Alon's mysterious popcorn allergy, not the 'genetical disorders' people in his next life would theorize one day.
