When children are born, they have a metal bracelet on your wrist. This bracelet is not to be removed or covered by any civilians. On it, sketched into the surface, is a rhythm. On average, a name will be about one to three measures. This rhythm is how you are recognized.
At the top left corner of papers in class, there is a measure to write your rhythm.
However, when you turn ten, you receive your first pitch. Everyone has all of their pitches by eighteen. By this time, you have a full melody to be recognized by.
One day, you find it all. Your lyrics. They are only presented to you when you are considered ready.

Sex and Death in Skeleton City

29 parts Complete

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
