[ Now that a day's gone by with nobody trying to put a hit on the Ringmaster, it's the PERFECT time to ask his creepy questions. ]

How many of you have died before, whether on your world or at the Carnival? You don't have to answer if you don't want to, I understand this might be a sore subject for some.

And if you have died, how were you brought back to life? Please try to be as detailed in your answer as possible.

[ just asked like no big deal, there's nothing weird about asking how people died in the slightest. c: ]

I suppose that's better than being dead. But how would you get in contact with the people you care about if you're a different person? They'd think you were mad.

[puddingemote]

You don't. They might be dead when you come back. I don't think you're supposed to remember, anyway.

[kingsroads]

Remember what, dying? I'd assume you would remember dying as it's dying.

[puddingemote]

But you'd be a different person who didn't die, I guess.

[He fell asleep during any world religion lectures that properly explained beliefs about reincarnation.]

[kingsroads]

[ And it's not like Strange gets reincarnation to begin with. By their powers combined, they are mad confused. ]

All in all, I'd rather be the same person I was.

[puddingemote]

Have you ever seen that happen? Someone come back to life as themself?

[kingsroads]

I didn't see the act itself happen, just the aftermath. But there has been one person who came back to live as themself back in my world. Her name is Lady Pole.

[puddingemote]

Can anyone come back? How long was she dead?

[kingsroads]

I believe she was dead for a matter of days. As for anyone coming back? I have no idea.

[puddingemote]

Oh...

[Well that's not helpful.]

You're trying to find out how to do it?

[kingsroads]

I'm trying to compare different ways to do it in the first place.

[puddingemote]

To find the best way?

[kingsroads]

Exactly! If someone else's world has a better way to bring back the dead than the way I know, then of course I'm going to use that method.

[puddingemote]

Is the way you know bad?

[Tamaki's thinking along the lines of having to sacrifice a virgin.]

[kingsroads]

It's...dangerous. All in all, I'd prefer something different.

[ it's blood magic. :/ ]

[puddingemote]

[Yikes.]

So you can bring someone back?

[kingsroads]

Not in the way I'd want to. My contract will hopefully change that, though.

[puddingemote]

Mm. So you're here because you want to be.

[kingsroads]

I am. I've a feeling I'm one of the few who actually wants to be here in the first place.

[puddingemote]

Some people come from bad places. [Not Tamaki, but he can understand why other people might want to stay.]
