Warning: no cows were hurt in the making of this scenario, atleast not that I'm aware of. kinda based on a true story sooo
"so... remind me, how did you die again?" The Reaper questions the man sitting before him across the glass table, raising it's non existent eyebrows at the silent man who starts fidgeting in his seat uncomfortably, possibly out of embarrassment for the ridiculous circumstances of his death.
"w-well, like i said before i was relieving myself by some train tracks when a cow came flying out of nowhere and hit me." He replies, looking down in shame.
The Reaper of Unusual Deaths would've never in its entire time of existence thought that it would encounter such an unusual death, i mean yeah it was responsible for dealing with things like this, but you never know. It hadn't encountered such a situation before to know better.
"so what are your plans now?"
"uhm, i don't know?" The man answers, unsure of his own answer. He hadn't expected death to come so early and so unusually. He starts crying as the reality of the situation begins to set it.
" ah i see. would you like some tea then? or perhaps you like some fancy coffee?" The Reaper politely offers, looking a little awkward. Damn it they didn't this stuff in school!
"no no, simple tea will do." More sniffling.
"with or without milk?"
"... i'd prefer some black tea please."
And the Reaper leaves the room, feeling conflicted between pity for the foolish human or itself.
Each type of death has a unique type of Reaper. The Reapers of Drowning collects the souls of the drowned. The Reapers of Old Age collects those that have come to their natural end. Write a story about a Reaper for an unusual death finally having a soul to collect.
“I will deny you death until you beg for it”
Here's my MC with his pet cat, Pixie! His name is Zhenya 'Zhen' Bogdanov. Though his enemies rather know him as 'Psikh Bogdanov'.
Because of his soft looks and polite demeanour Zhenya is often misunderstood to be a pushover by people who aren't very familiar with him. However for those who do, they know that he is anything but one. He's a softie around his family members and friends, but Zhenya's reputation as a ruthless individual sometimes far precedes his own family's. The people in the underworld often refer to him as a 'Psikh' (which basically means a madman or asshole in Russian) all because of his utter callousness when dealing with people and the extent of his ruthlessness. It is an unspoken rule in the underworld not to provoke him in case the 'nuclear bomb' goes off again. He looks up to his Grandfather and Uncle a lot (they're practically his role models) and he hopes to become the head of the Morozov family and bring it to new heights, although that might take a while considering he's busy with a rat (cough the killer cough) on the run. Plus despite his high ambitions Zhenya has a very bad habit of procrastinating things all the time if he doesn't find them interesting and running away frequently to hide in a cat cafe (psh the benefits of being a pampered kid i tell ya). Because of his strange obsession with cats and just felines in general, one can often see him cuddling on the couch with a shadow tiger (imagine instead of shadow hellhounds we have shadow tigers :D). Also he loves his pet ragdoll, Pixie with his whole being so to be given the chance to hold her should be considered an honour. The only ones who have been given this honour are Ash, Luka, and Rin.
Zhenya also likes reading books (though most of them are either horrifying fairy tales from the grimm brothers and the likes or manuals related to medieval torture methods, don't question him about it he'll simply call them necessary for scientific reasons, whatever they mean), trying out new kinda of foods (his favourites are the spicy and sour kind) and gatdening to a certain extent. Looking at his hobbies no one would believe that he is the heir of one of the biggest families in Elysium City (and that's exactly what he wants you to think). He's the living embodiment of 'looks like a cinnamon roll but could kill you'.
(psshhhhh sorry for the bad lighting tho! I hope you like him ^^ @vendetta-if )
Too bad, [V.] love would never reach MC because

Can I humbly ask for some Leo facts please lovely author ^^
I'M SO SORRY FOR NOT ANSWERING ALL YOUR ASKS EARLIER ANON 😞🙏 PLEASE FORGIVE ME FOR THIS GRAVE MISTAKE OF MINE- AND YES SURE 😃 here are some facts on our (possessive) Mommy Leo!
Her favourite flower is the Delonix regia, infact her palace garden is filled up these flowers blooming all year long
Has an interest in reading history books from the Old World
Likes to judge foods by the way they look and smell. She also especially dislikes eating capsicums and radishes
Was once interested in sculpting as a child, but abandoned it later after realising that she is incapable of making human faces
Has never seen a firefly in her life before
Has a small habit of calling her fellow colleagues by short and affectionate(?) nicknames like "honey", "hun" and "my love", although it is impossible to determine whether she actually does mean them or not
NINE BLOOD DANCES
Nine Moons for the Nine Circles of Hell
Ruled by Nine Siblings. Or better known as the Commanders of Hell. Each believed to carry a role in the natural world and each a leader of the Devil’s Army. Each Commander is the personification of their circle and is made with a part of The Devil’s Body.
His Brain. His Genitals. His Stomachs. His Lungs. His Eyes. His Tongues. His Flesh. His Ears. And lastly his heart.
With each part, combined with that of a woman of a different species, flourished the consciousness of the circle, and then from a piece of the circle, a body was molded, creating each commander.
Yet with no one to rule over them.
For the Devil has many things to do and does not have the time to watch over the things he created. So, he gets an idea. A funny idea.
For he wishes not to strip himself of more. So, he goes to a mortal man. One who knew all that of the world, a man who had everything that the mortal heart could desire. Expect love–Yes love. For there is a difference between idolization and obsession and honest love. The mortal man had not that, and so the Devil laughed and lured this man to his death. And when no one showed genuine care for the man at his funeral, he fell into despair.
And the Gods who refused to hear his prayers before now stared upon him and pitied him. And sent the mortal man a gift in order to ease the loneliness.

✶ Appearance: He stands at [5’9FT ~ 180CM] with honey-colored skin with black armband tattoos upon his wrists and ankles. He has short, shaggy black hair and deep red eyes. With a formal aesthetic, always wearing suits or a more military-type aesthetic. He has two long black tails of a wolf and wolf ears that hide amongst his hair with two red horns of a bison.

Taking upon titles, achievements, and anything to further their lie, and when it all backfires, they run away and never get caught. Due to this, they are never in hell, nor in their circle, in fact, it's hard to get in touch with them. They also spend a lot of time within the different underworlds and heavens, trying to gain something from the divine. Only to be sent back to Hell without punishment. They are tricksters and unreliable, with no real redeeming qualities.
✶ Appearance: They stand at [5’8FT ~ 178CM] with thick curly gray hair with white faded ends. Their hair is short to their chin and left alone. They have hooded gray eyes and short-bison-like horns with gray bat wings that fade into black with a long rat-like tail. They have varying styles but settle on clothing far more revealing.

Ugh but imagine poor E!!! old!mc used to look at them fondly, maybe a little in love and now there is only a blank face, devoid of all that.
GOSHHH *clutches my heart* THAT SOUNDS PAINFULLL AND OH THE POETIC WAY YOU DESCRIBED IT *chef kisses* ITS BEAUTIFUL 😍
and indeed if you choose to have a friends with benefits with relationship with E. then they will have pre existing feels for MC when you meet. The last time they met before MC's disappearance, they promised to come back for E. once they were done with their mission, however they failed and lost all their memories including those with E. E. has been waiting for the past 3 years for MC, and now that you're back, they won't let you go. And they won't forgive those who harmed you either, even if it means going against the entire Hightable and the world at that.
Tbh of all the given RO's, including Nikita, Leo, and G., E. is only one who truly loves and appreciates MC for the way they are, rather than seeing them as a possession or plaything for the sake of entertainment.
Obviously many parts of our past are spoilers, so you may not be able to answer, but could you tell us whether it's guaranteed that we definitely are a criminal, or is it possible that we don't know whether the charges are falsified or not?
Hmmm since it may kinda walk into the spoiler territory I'll just put the answer under the cut
Legally, by the law of Elysium, yes MC is technically a criminal, and a branded traitor (although most of the RO's don't know that, excluding Leo, Nikita and E.) They engaged in activities which safe to say... were less than righteous and ideal. Anddd they pissed off pretty powerful people up there which further led to their decline. Saying anything more would be too spoilers eh heh 😜
Is everyone aware that the MC's memories are gone?
If by everyone you mean the inmates, then yes they do, but they don't care anyways :)
So the cells are mixed in Tartarus? How do they prevent pregnancy?
Indeed they are mixed, with each cell hosting up to 2 people maximum, and they're called buddy pairs where each has to look after the other lest they make a mistake in which case both will be punished for the mistake of one. As for pregnancies, although not encouraged there are little to no measures regarding them. Besides, anyone who is found to be pregnant will be quickly snatched away and taken away to god knows where, and they never return so that's a warning. If one does manage to deliver the baby them they will be immediately confiscated (for lack of better word) and will not be permitted to meet the mother at any cost. No one knows what happens to the infant, and they don't want to think about it as well, fearing the worst.
My guess is:
MC was some sort of spy or an undercover cop sent to collect information within the rebellion because they were one of the best spies/cops possible to send in (hence them having plenty muscle memory despite amnesia)
MC instead started to believe in the cause and ended up abandoning their original mission— and their bosses knew that
MC slowly climbed up the hierarchy, high enough to be handed sensitive, crucial information, and the bosses realized they could try to catch MC and extract all that information
They knew MC enough to form a successful ambush, kidnapping them while also getting to wipe out and/or arrest some important rebels, but they didn't realize MC would go as far as to erase/block their own memory just to keep important information away from them
However, because MC did it hastily, it was sloppy work and they ended up accidentally putting themselves in a coma that lasted two long years
MC was high ranking enough that capturing them was enough to make the rebellion wobble, but the loss of some other important figures and the bosses strategically leaking that MC was a spy that ended up demoralizing and distracting the majority: they believed it was MC who gave the intel that led to the murder and arrest of high-level rebels and leaders, and now they were hiding like a coward
Basically, MC was made out to be the scapegoat, a traitor to the rebellion, hence why the survivors hate their guts
After the incident, it was easy to wipe out the rebels, but still, some important people did manage to escape and lay low, people MC has information on
MC cannot be let go: they have important information tucked away in a dark corner of their mind that can still be extracted, they are too powerful and charismatic that they can end up forming a second group of rebels more powerful than the other should they bring back their memories, and other surviving rebels might kill them
And now... we are here at today lol MC in jail, hated by the population that remembers them both before and after the rebellion, under the close surveillence of their former bosses
OH LORD I WAS ITCHING TO ANSWER THIS ASK FOR A WHILE, BUT NOW THAT I CAN, CAN I PLEASE PLEASE TELL YOU WHAT A MAGNIFICENT WORK OF ART THIS THEORY HERE IS????
It's *multiple chef kisses* JUST.PERFECT. although not entirely correct, there are some part in this super long and deliciously juicy theory that I can't help but fear that you are some sort of telepath to closely guess the basic storyline I had in mind. I mean the part about MC being a spy was quite far fetched, however them being ambushed and used as a scapegoat to topple the rebellion and becoming the centre of everyone's ire is quite close. I won't say anything more for fear of revealing anymore sensetive information and possibly spoil the fun, but this is one theory that I can gladly read over and over and never lose interest in. It's that good.
Anon are you a telepath in hiding possibly? 🧐 How could you come up such an amazing theory that mindblew me so much.
I love this theory and I hope to see more such theories, it makes it so much more fun to answer your asks and also gives me a good laugh (plus puzzled head scratch) every once in a while!
