[Indeed the little demon is here, and very intrigued by the thought of food or drink. Except that he shouldn't be asking for more when Alvin was already doing this for him.] ...I don't plan to stay for very long. B-besides, you should have it for customers right?

Hey, it's fine. Even though we have our own private kitchen, the upside of owning a restaurant and living above it is you can also use its equipment and stock.

[Grins.] But if you feel that guilty, could make you work it off.

[Oh dear.] S-Second thought, if you are that cool about it then why not.

...Although that ain't why I'm here.

[He just laughs before heading into the kitchen. C'mon, Emizel, you can follow.]

Riiight, you were going to tell me what kind of trouble you planned on getting into.

[Ohhhh, okay. He can follow that.]

Well... [He should get to that already]

I had a thought about how, or why, people might suddenly leave from this world.

Oh yeah? What's your take on it?

[It might be sort of heavy when he gets to the point? But..] ...We can't seem to die here. And what everyone says about going home, not a second passes. Like everything was just a dream I guess.

...What do you think would happen if we permanently died here? Would our worlds be stuck in time or would it keep going without us?

[Or a third option all together.]

[...Okay. Yeah. Way heavier than he expected, uh.]

If it's anything like the fractured dimensions of my world... Well. [Hm.]

I guess it depends on how deeply connected we are. If we permanently died here, maybe something would happen to us back home—maybe even die there somehow. [Sudden heart attack? Never wake up? Hell if he knows.]

But that doesn't really account for people who come from different timelines, huh? Either everyone is from parallel universes or there's something crazy going on.

...There's a possibility it could be something a crazy as that too, but I think it's a lot simpler than that.

I doubt it is possible to truly die here. It would cause way too many complications with time and space. [And all those other big worlds he can't think of right now.] But sending somebody home for good, that would be next way to kill somebody off.

[Emizel sighed, thinking again about how to confirm all this.] ...There is only one being that would know this too.

[There's going to be a few seconds before realization dawns on him as to what Emizel is aiming to do.]

Don't tell me you want to talk with the death reaper of this place?

[That would be the right of it. And nods a little because of it.]

I think it's more urgent that I do it now.

[A small sigh.]

Honestly I can't say I'm that surprised. Plus you guys are both the same...kind of.

[Now crossing his arms and leaning against a conveniently placed counter.]

Have you ever talked with him before? And how do you plan on reaching him, anyway?

I wanted to before. But without much to talk about other than what he is, I thought I should wait.

...That and a lot of people were worried what might happen if I did call for him.

[And probably still are, for good reasons. This 'Death' sure liked to make itself clear.]

But now I got even more questions that do need to be answered.

...Yeah, I'm still kind of worried about that, too. [He remembers.]

On the other hand, it doesn't seem like he's out to rain death on us all and haven't heard of anyone being murdered in a while. [Except for that whole Junko thing.]

Maybe he'll be calm enough? But I still don't know, Emizel.

There is that too. I would like to think that he's calmed down. Or at least has figured out that we can't all be blamed for what someone does. [Dammit Junko why you got to ruin everything.]

[Emizel is still feeling a bit worried, or guilty. He knows that he can't tell Shun about this plan, not after he said that he won't do it the first time.] ...I still think he'll probably listen more to someone that's closer to him though. As for people worried about me, I won't know what will happen until I try it.

[He rubs his brows, thinking this all over. It's not that the kid doesn't have any valid points. He does have the advantage of being a reaper himself, so it's true that a kindred spirit may help. But still, they just don't really know anything about this thing...]

Maybe you should ask one of the other Arehtei, see if they know something or could ensure your safety. After all, we also have to think what the worst case scenario would be and how to handle it.

Peromei won't know... But maybe one of the older Arehtei might.

[Definitely don't want ask Thras, that's for sure. So that narrows it down to..]

If it's possible to track Daimonia down, she could know something.

Could try asking one of her representatives to see if they can get in touch with her if you can't yourself.

[.....Well considering who Daimonia's rep is]

That..would be one way to let Shun know what's going on.

[Looking a bit nervous. Guess who hasn't informed someone yet~]

[...

.......

................]

Say, am I the only person you've talked about this with?

...W-well.

[....Hahahahahahahaha]

I-I wanted to test the idea with only one person first.

[And if it went well, then ask eother.]

[Emizel.......................................

However.]

Not exactly the worst idea. [Small sigh.] Actually I am glad you came to me first about this.

[....Okay now he might be getting some mixed signals.]

You are?

Yeah. So I could try and stop you if needed. [Blunt.

But—]

And it's kind of nice to know that I'm you're first pick to have someone listen to you.

[There could be a few reasons why it is that way. Not that he would say it.]

...I figure if I can't get it passed you first, it won't work on anyone.
