The STRAIGHT-UP DEATH meme

Pick a character.
Put their name and subject line in the header.
Tagging people: RNG or just pick one below. Needless to say, this meme may contain TRIGGERS for death, violence and suicide.
Posting people: the person who tagged you is now DYING.
Have fun.

OPTIONS:

Illness: Self-explanatory. You're on your deathbed from a long and drawn-out illness. Time to call someone to your side for comfort, or for a confession...
I Cannot Self Terminate: Maybe they're horribly injured, or maybe they've been mutated into a horrific monster. Either way, they can't tell anyone that they want to die--though no one doubts it. Will you be the one to take mercy on them?
Execution: Once again, self-explanatory. You fought the law and the law won. This is probably the last time anyone will see you...or is the other character your executioner?
Secretly Dying: Letting your friends and family know that you're terminally ill, or have been marked for death, or have a curse placed on you? No way. You'd rather keep them at ease. But all lies exist to be found out...
And Make You Watch: This person has hurt you in every possible way, but you can't bring yourself to kill them...looks like there's no recourse but to kill yourself. But before you do it, there's just one way you can twist the knife a little...
Bungled Suicide: You don't want to die, but can't think of any way to live. Fortunately, one of your friends has stumbled in at just the right time...
Murder: Pretty self-explanatory. One of your characters is trying to kill the other.
Fatal Accident: Drowned? Caught in a fire? Happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time? All accidents and unhappy, untimely ends go here.
Duel to the Death: You, sir/madam, have been offended in every possible way, and it's time to settle this once and for all.
Old Age: Well, you've had a good run, haven't you? Somehow you managed to avoid all the other pitfalls your friends have, but everybody has to pay the piper eventually...
Ghost: You're already dead. But you had some unfinished business to attend to, so you're making just one last visit...
Other: Make up something or combine two or three!

[ Lung shot. It had been his stupid mistake of not taking into account that the one necromancer they had tracked down would have been carrying a crossbow. It was also just his fatally bad luck that the man had a dead eye for picking targets at a distance. There was little that could be done after the steely point of that cross bolt wormed its way between the space in his ribs, not even after the necromancer had been down for good.

When the dust settled and Sabriel came out of Death, Amon felt every ounce of his strength drain out of him through the hole in his side. He felt the cold chill of the water in his hands as it failed to counteract the injury as it, along with the rest of him, fell to ground in a heap. He had just managed to preserve enough of his dignity to push himself back up on his knees as the Abhorsen came into view. ]

Ah; you're alright.

[ooc: SO I WANT TO TAG THIS BUT I AM KIND OF AT A FLAILING LOSS AS TO WHAT TO DO. have ye any thoughts?]

[Go ahead. He's used to everyone dying around him.

God damn it, not again.]

[He's lost count over how many times in the past few months he's woken up without any clear idea of what the hell his intentions were. And as far as the battling went? He might have gone up a level or two, but his game's been slipping as of late.

He shrugs it off by joking about how lazy he's gotten, but whenever he does there's a bit of uncertainty to his words. There's a little bit of unsettling clutter about his room, too--unsettling because normally, he's an absolute fucking neat freak.

He can't hide forever and he hates it. He might have ditched the mask some years ago, but his preference for keeping some things hidden never really left him.

So for twenty minutes that morning he just stares at the ceiling of his bedroom.

Soon, it's going to be time to pay the piper.]

Noatak!

[The ice had only started to melt as Sabriel stumbled towards him, a healing spell already half-traced by her fingers. It would only buy her a little time, she realized. Sabriel could already feel him dying.

You could bring him back, a voice whispered, You brought back a rabbit, how much more difficult would it be to bring back a human? And it was tempting- Sabriel didn't want him to die, but her father's words echoed in her head.

Everyone and everything has a time to die.

Sabriel took a deep, shuddering breath.]

I'm fine- just hold still.

[ Words of relief half-formed in his throat were overtaken by a rattling cough that shook his entire body. Blood split into his palm as he tried to stifle his wracked lungs. ]

It would just prolong the inevitable. [ His voiced splintered like broken glass in pain with every word.

Even though it hurt, Noatak then laughed and proceeded to comment that when he smelled his own blood. He had only panicked because he immediately associated the stench with Free Magic, and thought Sabriel was in for more trouble. ]

I've spent too much time here.

[But first have a boring introduction:

It's been a century long battle that X has fought on his own and eventually sealed himself. As a cyber-elf X was free to drift about like a mindless apparition of sorts. It was from there he happened to meet Jiro by chance. He couldn't help but feel a kinship towards Jiro.

As a fellow, well... "machine" Jiro had to endure so much and bare so many scars within his heart. It caused X's own to bleed. He liked spending quiet moments with Jiro, as the world continued to march on and his friend slept it all away.

He made it a point to at least visit Jiro once a day, wanting to have some semblance of contact with another being. He also figured, Jiro didn't mind X imposing his own presence upon him.]

Jiro...are you here?

[X questioned as he began to search for Jiro's energy signal.]

[The usual cycle had ended and restarted, as always, with waking up after a thousand years. A few days in, she'd met you. She's kept her distance somewhat - she learned the hard way why she ought to never become too attached.

However, that wasn't the only reason. These past few days haven't felt like the rest of the weeks she's been awake. She'd awoken oddly, too - rather than slowly morphing from the Millennium Comet, she had suddenly broken free from the stone. She realized fairly quickly that her time must be waning. Nothing lives forever, after all.

The signs that something is wrong have built up in the short time you've known her. It's readily apparent that she hasn't been sleeping. She wants to make the most of this last week. She's been getting worse by the day.

...That doesn't mean she'll let anyone know what's wrong.]

[X leaned against the wall as he kept moving forward to his destination. Each step lagged, as his feet threatened to give away. Visible cracks were upon his armor with a odd, dark orb lodged into his chest being the clear epicenter of his damages. His shoulders heaved with each labored "breath" his body took.

How much longer until he found the Yggdrasil? It was hard to see with the constant static and error signs he was starting to receive. His system was in overdrive as his body worked on sustaining, and repairing X's injuries but keeping the dark orb to remain intact.

Eventually, his knees gave out forcing X to collaspe to the ground with a pained howl. His right hand shot out to clutch at his chest as his "breaths" became too short, and his body hot. Just what he needed. Overheating on top of it all.]

Ugh... Just...a little bit m-more...

[For Jiro on the other hand, he had lived long. Too long, in fact. Being a machine granted him to live a longer lifespan than any human. What saddened him is that... as time passes, so do his, friends, his family, all of his loved ones.

So did Mitsuko.

Somewhere in an alleyway nearby, guitar music can heard. Although if X checked on Jiro's energy signal, it seems rather weak for some reason.]
