[Video] Body Garden

[dirge]

[The drone captures Dirge's huge form half in shadow perched on the roof of an old mausoleum, surveying the graveyard below like some hideous teal vulture.]

I don't understand...

[He mutters, claws tapping at the ancient stone statue of whomever is interred there curiously. He pinches the chin and squints into its eyes for a moment before shaking his head.]

What is the point of this ritual?

[Dirge jumps down, landing on all fours and crouching near a tombstone.]

What a terrible waste! Body parts are so very useful...

[He flicks the grave and it pitches forward a little.] Why bury them in the ground? Or lock them in boxes? Is someone saving these for later?

I know decaying organic can be used to grow things. People bring flowers, but they do not plant them.

The 'next world,' or 'underworld,' or wherever it is a spirit goes upon 'moving on.'

So? There's a difference between being dead and being dead and gone, and the dead being unable to use a thing doesn't mean they're no longer interested in what befalls it. You got stuff you can't use because you're too big, but I bet you still care what becomes of your stuff.

Wait- There is something after death? [Why has no one told him about this?]


I don't have to be able to use something to own it. [He scoffs. Which really just proves her point.]

So basically, you're telling me ghosts will be pissed if I take their dead bodies. [Why are ghosts always potentially angry with him?]

Sure seems like it.

See? Ghosts don't have to be able to use something to own it either!

Ghosts got a rep for being possessive.
