WisdomThe oldest man:
A child,
Surprised to learn
There are still things to learn

'Hi'She's such a stereotype – but I think it's a joke.
Sometimes I think I catch her smiling
When the other kids mutter about goths and emos.
Not a real smile, just a twitch
Like she's hiding. But why
Why, I don't know because she's brave.
She's not scared of stares
The way I am. So why hide?
Her silence is so loud there's no point.
And her words, when they come – beware!
Everyone's afraid of her. To my shame
I am too, but she makes me brave.
My heart thumps for a million reasons
In a million ways when I see her.
She stares at me, guarded, and I say,
'Hi.'

SheShadows eyes and blackens hair,
Fiercely throws the world a dare
To find the secret behind her stare.

Shuns the world and shuns her class,
Watches them through ice cold glass,
But, behind her eyes, she laughs.

The girl who walks aloneLet them think they know me
Me, the girl who walks alone
In black like every misunderstood
Self-pitying loner. Let them think so.
Let them hear me laugh
And talk all on my own
Like a crazy person, and let them
Run away when the barbed
Words they fling miss their mark
Or fall short or I catch them
And throw them back.

All about me, and to fear me.
Because what they think
Is nothing – they don't know me.
Not at all and I stand
At a distance, and I laugh
And I laugh
And nobody can touch me.

He hides in shadows, even when seen.
Layer upon layer they shelter him.
Peel back his hood but still they're there,
Clinging beneath the bonewhite brow,
As though to spare the object of his gaze
The sorrow he doesn't know what to do with.

The KingIn terror, in desperation, he begs
Offers me all the riches of the world
His world that he commanded – but no more.
I refuse. He screams. 'Please! Not now, not yet
I am too young, too powerful; my son
Has just been born – he needs a father. Please!
I do not want to die. What is the price
Of immortality?' But I smile, tall
And cold. 'There is nothing you can give me
That I have any use for. You cannot
Bargain with me, or challenge me. Don't try.
Better to come quietly, and accept
All that I am.' With rage he rails and sobs
But falls in upon himself and then out
Of the world in a wink of nothingness.
I shrug and mo

...Yeah. Aaand back to action! Well, sort of. Dialogue is action, of a sort. There will be an awful lot of text in this story.
The thud coming from the floor in the first panel is her dropping her school bag.

So Emily remembers Death because her mother asked Death to take care of her?? That's a reasonable explanation ^^

...That's the only reason he talks to anybody, usually. He wouldn't do it if he thought they were going to remember him.
