Me too. Unfortunately the artist started another story so the latest drawing of Cecilia and Death is when they went to the beach.

I really like the rather absurd series of romance novel excerpts and covers they have been doing lately.

One of the novel inspired me to write the longer story about it. But yeah it became more silly now. Supermodel University?

Well, once the cat had died its ghost could catch the ghost mice. So she brought it in with her skeleton hand to chase ghost mice away.

This lady is kind of an asshole regarding people who aren't immortal

I don't blame her. The great depression made her unfazed about people dying. Also seeing people dying can get old after a while.

I think since she's already immortal, maybe bc of something like his intent wasn't death when they touched, (1/2)

11 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

making her immortal instead of killing her, now they can touch freely? A guess on my part. (2/2)

11 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Yep that's correct. They can freely touch each other now.

Maybe since he already kissed her, she's immune? She got the kiss of death, but in the wrong place?

I for some reason knew it took place in the 30's because her name is Cecilia. That's the most 1930's name ever.
