Excerpt: There is nothing as sharp as her knife her scythe her words her heart.

There is nothing as sharp as her knife her scythe her words her heart. Nothing nothing nothing at all. And even if she loves that butler just a little a little bit she'd bleed for him just a little, he isn't nearly as special as the blood.

She cannot bear a child so she will murder, because the giving of death is just as precious as the giving of life and if one cannot run with a scythe at least at least once then existence is not worth living. She is she is he is Grell and if the creator whatever it is chose not to provide her with the correct equipment she will simply make do like a proper lady.

She darts forward she fights she kills she bleeds she revs the blade she screams in joy and this this this is what being a shinigami is really really about: life/death/existence/truth.
