[QUOTE="izillama, post: 4705803, member: 79171"] Clover sat up straighter as though she had been struck by a pin. She hadn't expected that Koln would have been thinking the same thing. Though she did feel a little embarrassed that he had to correct her about who was coming after him. Hm... what [I]could[/I] he do to fake his own death? As she thought, she drew her knees up to her chest and faced her desk. She began to ramble, merely getting her thoughts out in the open though not specifically talking to Koln: "Yes, it has to be convincing. The church, or your brothers, would not believe it otherwise. But at the same time, we can't be stupid about this. I mean, yes you can stay deathly still. But it's not like we could stick you in a coffin or anything. They'd probably want to examine you. They'd see your teeth. Then they'd bury you. Do you think you could dig your way out? I don't know if Ruby and I would be able to help you. Either way, it probably isn't the best idea. But it's not like you could go missing, either. They would want to see your body. Besides, it's not like you [I]hate[/I] your brethren. You would want to give them peace of mind, right? Hm... We need to think of a way for you to disappear and they would not go looking for physical evidence..." The idea hit her like a brick to the head. She stood up so fast that she was sure she would have seriously startled anyone else and possibly given them a heart attack... were Koln not already un-dead. Clover knelt on her chair, speaking quickly and excitedly. She could see it all so clearly! "The fire! That fire at Prestor's house! They're still examining it, right? I wonder if they've gotten to the basement, yet? We should ask Ruby. But, [I]what if[/I] they found some... Oh [I]crap[/I], I forgot you already talked to the church. They think you're alive..." Clover crossed her arms and sunk down into into her chair like a stubborn child. How could she have missed that? Stupid, stupid...! She grumbled almost inaudibly to herself, "Damnit, I forgot. It would have been so perfect, too! We could have pulled some teeth, maybe gone back and gotten the cross. Planted it in the basement. They would think you burned up in the fire. They can't test [I]ash[/I]. No DNA testing for that. Suzie's mother died down there and burned up. At least we could have put the stuff next to her body. [I]Human[/I] ash, at least. Geez. And here I really thought I had something...." *grumble* [COLOR=RoyalBlue]And I really [I]did[/I] get excited when I started thinking about it. But then, I really was like "oh crap, that doesn't work..." >.<[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
