Strife: Yo, big bro! You know what the humans say about you? They say you don’t have a type!
Death:…Excuse me?
Strife: *waves the Bible at him* This book right here states: “Death comes for us all”!

blur their words together. - Strife
-call people by the wrong names. - definitely Strife
-try to walk only to stumble against a wall. - Death (very discreetly tho. You probably won’t even notice)
-lean on a doorframe for support. - War. Way more prone to knocking various shit over when tired, too
-deny they’re tired - All of them. Exhaustion is the name of the Horseman game, baby
-fall asleep at a table, desk, floor, someplace that isn’t a bed. - War,Strife,Fury
-when nudged immediately reply with “I’m awake I’m fine”. - War,Strife
-are shaking so bad they spill their drink. - can’t pin this one on any of them, to be honest. War might just let some of the beer run down his chin though.
-become irritated by every little thing. - Death, big time. AlsoFury
-yawn mid-sentence. -StrifeandWar
Thoughts?
You: (eyes filled with tears) I just wish I could stop crying every day… Depressed is such a fucking pointless thing to be.
Strife: Hey. At least you’re letting it all out.
You: Huh?..
Strife: (sighs, fidgets a bit, finally sits closer) Look. I happen to have an absolute sphincter of a brother. He only ever cries on the inside, ya know? And I think that’s much worse.
Strife: *squinting at his phone* WTF, I just got followed by someone called “Professional Grannies Pornstars Galore.”
Death: *studiously casually* Your exes are trying to get in touch?
vocabulary
Strife: Human language is so damn limited. They have their “I love you’s” and their “I like you’s”, but that’s all. There should also be an expression for “I’m horny about you.”
Death: You don’t seem to have any trouble expressing that.
Strife: Yeah, but I don’t want any misunderstandings! There’s always room for improvement in language -
War: I’d like there to be an expression for: “I care about you, but I don’t know how to put this into words”…
Strife: Well, you’ve just put it into words.
War: Huh. True. Still, I’d prefer if those were words that don’t sound so - wordy.
Death: I agree. Like words that convey: “I love you, but I don’t feel like I’m good enough for you. Hence I’m going to pretend that I don’t, and I expect you to play along.”
Fury: You men are hopeless…
more on the same note, bc we’re not done here
Death: So you mean that you’d rather remain dysfunctional?
Strife: What I mean is I’d rather be dysfunctional than boring.
Death: How is that mutually exclusive. One can be well-adjusted and -
Strife: Look at you. Talking “adjusted” as if you knew her! When was the last time you were kind to yourself, Death? When was the last time you -
Death:Strife.
Strife: The most adjusted one among us here is War, and he wouldn’t recognize a metaphor if it roundhouse kicked him in the pie receptacle!
(Camera pans to War)
War: *proudly* I don’t need to recognize a monster’s name to crush it into dust.
Imagine:
going to a Halloween party with Death dressed as Hades and you as Persephone.
(I don’t mean the characters from any of the available webcomics or pieces of art in particular - you get to choose the iteration.)
Strife: 3,2, 1…now!
(Both he and War glomp onto unsuspecting Deathand hold him in a shared assault of a hug)
Death:What the hell do you think you’re doing. Stop that. Stop that -
War:*increases the strength of the hug*
Strife: Oh, shut up and let us love you!
You: *stand behind Death and wrap your short human arms around his midsection because that’s as far up as you’re able to reach anyway*
Death:What are you doing?..
You: You just said you needed a little spoon.
Death: For my coffee, girl. I needed it for my coffee.
approaches
Each one of the Nephilim bois approaches crises from a different angle.
If you come back home with your eyes red and your face puffy - War will frown, ask for a name…and then go fetch his humongous sword. You’ll have to snap out of it and redirect all your mental energy into convincing him that not all problems can be massacred with a humongous sword.
Strife will be like: “Oh, baby. Oh, cupcakes. COME HERE THIS INSTANT!” and drown you in a hug.
Deathwill probably sigh soundlessly, stand up from where he was haunching, put his hands on his hips and ask: “Are you solution-oriented about this or are you at the feelings stage?”
It helps to know what can be expected from each one of them though.
Death: *enters room* I have lived a thousand lifetimes. I know the world’s greatest joys and greatest sorrows…
You: *look away from your laptop*
Death:…yet to me both are long lost. I am but a cold hearth, each spark turned into ash inside of me.
You: Awh. Tough day at work, I reckon? Do you wanna fuck?
Death: I’d like to, yes.
After the events of The Abomination Vault, painful revelations drive a wedge between War and Death just as their fledgling bond was starting to deepen.
