[ Up Fabian meanders in his slow placid sort of way. He drapes his arms over the podium and links those bony fingers for a moment before deciding this question would be best delivered around a cigarette. Once that's been taken care of, he goes back to previous posture. ]
Do you fear death; do you long for it? Does death inspire a curiosity or a paralysis within your thoughts? Have you put great thought in to after death? Do you have your own personal belief?

World would've been better off if I'd died when it was my time.

If it was your time, you would have died.

[There's a pause before he remembers that he's meant to trade pleasantries.] And yourself?

Well, that's all right. Everyone's got to get filled in somehow.
[ Most of the people she knows have spent a few centuries dead. It breeds a certain sympathy for the learning curve. ]

I wish to make no assumptions, so please: tell me of you.

Oh. Uh, my name's Blaze-37. I'm a Guardian, from the city. I guess you could call me new at the job, seeing how it's only a couple of years since they woke me up. I'm Titan-class - specialized for heavy offense. That's a lot of fun.
[ She rubs her collar as she thinks, running out of significant details. Depending on whether you share her definition of significant. ]
That help? I don't think there's much else to tell.

[ Nate and his apparently permanently-attached-to-his-face sunglasses are here to not answer any of those questions and also give Fabian a small bottle of something, which is offered without any explanation but does in fact have to do with cigarettes and shared food. ]
no subject
Are you saying I look like I haven't bathed or slept in a week? [ Which he does look a bit like a train wreck. Not that he doesn't always look somewhat a mess, but. He takes the bottle and offers a smoke. ]
no subject
Not a week... [ Deadpan, not least because he's in the same boat of constantly looking tired and slightly disreputable. ] ... but I was expecting the lights to dim and a slideshow of Bosch to start.
no subject
Ah, Hieronymus Bosch. [ don't mind him for opening the bottle. He'd say it was one of those nights but it is often one of those nights. ] I thoroughly enjoy his works but I confess I enjoy Beksiński more.
[ he takes a moment. Spacing out? Fantasizing? Who knew. After said moment he realizes the ash on his cigarette is getting long. ] You didn't answer any of my questions.

When I was younger, I was a bit obsessed with it. I hated the not knowing about what would come after, and if I ever thought about dying, well, it was more to eliminate any sense of that ambiguity than anything else. [ So she says, anyway, speaking in a way that's both absent and practiced. These are statements she has made in her head before, explicitly and deliberately spelling out her own thoughts. It's mostly true. Control freak since the age of twelve. ]
Some people look at death like an adversary. Something tangible they have to fight against.
no subject
I feel there's nothing wrong with wondering. There are so few ways to truly understand what lays beyond that veil. Certainly not healthy and safe practices with insurance of return. [ Which doesn't mean that there's not ways to see without possibly returning. Difficult? yes. very. dangerous. ]
I wonder sometimes what it is that drives this fear beyond the key idea of unknown. A life not fulfilled?
