You copied his habit of hiding in coffins, jumping out whenever he entered the room and receiving a decent black eye the first time when his reflexes kicked in and he lashed out by accident, thinking you were an intruder. The other reaper had done it to you every time you went to his parlour in the beginning, and whilst you couldn’t prevent yourself from screaming whenever he did, no matter how much you came to expect it, it certainly didn’t stop you from pranking him in return. Something else you quickly picked up from Undertaker was the art of terrifying people half to death. ![]() You started being seen together so often that the mortician’s regulars would ask what had happened if you weren’t there. You ribbed Ciel endlessly over his height, joining the mortician in turning everything into a joke and insisting on being present for Undertaker’s ‘payments’, laughing just as quickly and almost as much as he did. Given the family relation, you often saw William when he was on business in the human world where you resided and you also spent more and more time with Undertaker, making run-ins with the demon butler and his earl annoyingly frequent. Evidently, Undertaker knew everything that had come to pass - how exactly, you weren’t sure - and from the moment you cracked a joke at William’s expense and had both collapsed in laughter, you just seemed to get on really well. The body of the woman in red needed to be collected, her soul having already been taken. That sparked a long conversation, during which you accompanied Undertaker to his finally destination, which turned out to be where you had just come from. “Who might you be then, hm?” You gave him your name and he returned the favour, pointing out he was aware that you too were a reaper. “Usually takes ‘em longer than that,” he started, voice gradually dropping in timbre and loosing the slightly raspy, lilting tone it had originally. He let out a cackle followed by a wicked grin. You told him as much, albeit quietly, lest anyone was around. Given that you also had no desire to talk to him, you left soon after William did, only to run straight into a horse and carriage.Īs soon as the driver jumped down to stand tall in front of you, you knew immediately he was a reaper. However, you did notice the briefest glint of surprise cross the demon’s features when the other reaper made no move to step away from you. You staggered forward, striking green eyes lined with tears as you clapped a hand on your brother’s arm, ignoring the dirty side glance he gave you. As the other reaper started muttering about how terrible having to apologise to a demon was, you simply couldn’t keep your laughter in check any longer. The demon discarded it immediately and you made your presence known as William stepped back, right on the head of a red-headed colleague. You had watched from the shadows, hardly able to keep a straight face as your stoic half-brother produced a business card and handed it over to a demon, begrudgingly bowing as he did so. The first time you met Undertaker, you had met William in the human world whilst he was on a reaping trip. Ooo yes of course!! Sorry this took so long and thank you!! ![]()
