[Sorry housemates at Heropa 11, Eleanor has found the tequila and she's sitting at the table, a half-empty bottle in front of her.

It's been a long eternity and she needs her friends and a drink. Her friends aren't here so she'll settle for drinking instead while she tries to wrap her mind around what was happening.]

Ok so hands up- who else here is dead? I'm not the only one right?

[She raises her own hand in the air, picking up the bottle with her other hand.]

I've never done the whole superhero thing before- it can't be too difficult, right?

[She took another drink of tequila straight from the bottle before setting it aside. No pulling a classic Shellstrop by getting drunk and making a spectacle of herself this time.

She's got this. She's better than that.]

I gotta say my superpower rocks. I couldn't do this before.

[The video cuts off as a few pieces of jumbo shrimp appear in her hand. Yum.]

You're dead? For real?

[forkingbullshirt]

For real.

It's been...something, that's for sure.

Sorry you died... What happened? [ Maybe inappropriate to ask, like a woman's age, but he's thirteen and lacks tact sometimes. ]

You can summon....shrimp.

[ Starr is Very Unimpressed. ]

[confiscated]

How d'you know you're dead? Was that the last thing you remember from home?

[forkingbullshirt]

Damn straight.

[She hears that tone, you're not getting any shrimp now.

She stares straight ahead at the camera as she puts another piece of shrimp in her mouth, daring him to diss her cool power.]

All I need is the sauce now.

[She has to admit she's not sorry- it turned out the afterlife had been better than her life when she was alive.]

I think you're a little young for that story.

[Even she has a general idea of what's age appropriate. Generally.]

Let's just say, it wasn't my finest moment.

I'm pretty sure I died back home, though I'm not really sure. I've also never done the super hero thing to be honest, but it does seem interesting.

( more interesting than being dead, that's for sure. )

Are you sure you died? What happened if you don't mind me asking.

There was a whole orientation, guided tours- oh and then there were the demons.

[But there was one demon she missed now and she was wondering when he would show up.]

The last thing I remember- we were going to be sent somewhere. I guess this is it.

[ Scowling a little. ] Am not... [ The exact answer for someone too young. ]

Was it embarrassing? [ He thinks of an embarrassing scenario. ] Did you have an accident in your pants? I heard that happens a lot when you die.

[confiscated]

Are you - another person from Hell?

Why are we getting so many Hell people here lately.

[forkingbullshirt]

Where did you end up? I mean, other than here.

[She was curious if there was anyone from the Good Place here- or if this was just her.]

Pretty sure- not sure for how long though.

[hairswirls]

I believe I'm over in Heropa actually.

( not that she really knows/has the mental energy to keep up with this stuff. after all she's more concerned about having powers and being in a very foreign place with very foreign looking people. )

Normally the dead stay dead, right? I'm wondering if maybe this is some kind of weird after life.

I am!

[Said by someone nearly as small and just as blonde, holding a garishly colored wine cooler.]

[ Damnit, Eleanor. That is both equally repulsive and mildly arousing. ]

Perhaps you may find your tears are made of cocktail sauce to go along with your incredibly useless ability. How is summoning shrimp going to help anyone?

video;

[fridgeflower]

Being dead isn't wholly uncommon, no. Though... Well, you seem very casual about it. I guess that's not bad.

[ Anywho... ]

Can you summon different sorts of shrimp? Is it only shrimp?

video;

[lempereur]

Can you summon living shrimp?

[ The most important part of this. ]

video;

[forkingbullshirt]

[A pause.]

Ok but that would be awesome.

[The gift that Michael had given her of the endless shrimp and sauce dispenser had been the most amazing thing.]

Helps if you like shrimp.

[forkingbullshirt]

So where did you end up? Up or down?

[Other than her friends, she had never met any other humans in the afterlife. She was curious to see if there were others who had been in the Bad or Good Place.]

[admemoriam]

Neither.

[At least, not at first. He's not sure what's going to happen when he moves on.]

I stayed on Earth.

video;

[forkingbullshirt]

I've had a while to get used to it.

[And she has to admit that the afterlife has been much better than her life on Earth had been.]

So far, only shrimp. Kinda missing some sauce to go with them.

[ Here's a teenager with a bleach job waving at the screen. ]

Oh, I know the answer to this one! I'm super dead.

[onlydoubts]

[ yeah he was gonna actually reply to the dead part of the message, but first - ]

Your power is to... summon shrimp?

[granddevil]

Is being dead that important? Do you want to form a club or something?

VIDEO.

[selfconducts]

Definitely not the only one. As you've probably figured out by now. [ Plenty of dead'uns chiming in, after all. ] And then some of us are only nearly dead. You're in good company either way.

[ Somehow, even that vaguely morbid sentiment sounds like amiable conversation in his charming London accent. He's good at banter. ]

It's only difficult if you mean to take it seriously.
