"Whoa..dude..." Death swayed, "Like, I tink wehaffa stalemate." He slurred a bit. How he slurred, since his head was a skull with no tongue or lips, Jim didn't know, but then... what the heck, this is the land of the dead.
"A stalemate? What'z tha mean?" Jim blinked owlishly, he was a bit tanked himself. This wasn't how it worked for Bill and Ted.
"Never happ'nd afore." The not so grim reaper seemed apologetic. "You got zum choices tho"
"Choicez?" Jim listened.
The skull nodded, "You can chall.. challenge me agin." Jim felt a bit green at that idea.
Death explained the second option, "You can wander as a ghost, go haunt folks n' shit."
"OR," Death explained,"You can become my asis.. ass..." He gave up on the word, "You can work for me."
Jim blinked and slurred back, "I would be an assi.. assi...I'd work for you?"
"Your call...duuude."
