der Tod

내가 어설펐다기엔 너무 늦게 알아본 것 아닌가? 혹은 네가 감시받는 것에 지나치게 익숙했다던가.
(별로 탓하는 기색 없이, 가벼운 어조를 유지한다. 내밀었던 메뉴판을 톡톡 건들이며)
오늘 여기 일도 분명 프란츠 요제프의 귀에 들어가겠지. 이건 어때, 음료와 디저트를 한 상 가득 시켜 맛집탐방이라도 하고 왔노라고 주장하는 건?

(루돌프가 천천히 긴장을 풀고 마주 바라보자, 죽음 역시 굳은 표정을 조금 누그러뜨린다. 짐짓 심각한 척, 거의 놀리는 듯한 투로) 그래? 황제의 하수인과 단둘이 오붓하게 커피라도 한 잔 마실 작정이었단 말이군. 매수라도 해 볼 심산이었나?

(루돌프가 기다리지도 않고 문을 열자, 놀란 종업원이 허둥지둥 자리를 안내한다. 아직은 한산한 시간대이므로 구석진 창가자리가 남아 있다. 죽음은 두 사람을 따라서 가게 안으로 들어가며 깊게 눌러 쓰고 있던 모자를 벗는다. 죽음은 느릿하게 걸어 루돌프 맞은편에 앉은 후, 메뉴판을 밀어 주며 오늘 만난 이후 처음으로 눈을 맞춘다.)

글쎄, 감시를 피하고 싶을 때 곧장 목적지로 가는 건 현명하지 못한 처사죠. 멜랑지 한 잔을 홀짝이며 동태를 살피는 게 '산책' 보다는 나을 겁니다.
(루돌프를 마주 살피지도 않고, 당연하다는 듯이 출입문 가까이로 향한다. 그러나 문 가의 종업원은 마치 손님이 보이지 않는 것 마냥 문을 열어 줄 생각을 않는다)

우정에는 이름이나 직책 따윈 중요하지 않죠. 게다가 어차피 어떤 이름을 대더라도 믿지 않을 것 아닙니까?

산책이라면 친구와 함께해도 나쁘지 않겠지요. (경계심 어린 태도에도 아랑곳 않고, 바짝 붙어 서서 고갯짓한다) 가십시다, 우린 가려는 곳이 같아요.

Even with the drug that makes you forget pain you've created a new one.
*appears from the darkness and stands with his arms crossed, paying no attention to the bottles*
Just go and get some more. That's what all you need - NOT ME. You're only anxious about the future where pain will strike again.

But you need me to escape the pain.

For your wounds from the hunting you got the morphine - you did take it more than prescribed. Wasn't that enough to forget all the pain?

Instead of cooling the boy's fever and putting him correctly on the bed, he rings the bell to call someone waiting outside the room. He disappeared from the room before the door opens.*

*After he confirms that the child was completely unconscious, he carefully gets out of the bed. The boy's lying awkwardly on the bed without even a blanket on him. Der Tod instinctively realizes that he can no longer stay near the child.

In the same way - whether you become a ruler or some kind of hero - I will win over you. But I hope you won't feel sorry about it, my child...
*makes the boy fully leaning against him, and notices the child is losing consciousness.*
...after all, I have remembered you for over a hundred years...

(He doesn't point it out, though knowing the promise is meaningless. He just smiles cynically.) Oh yes, I want her to notice me... but I don't urge for it like you do. I know I will win in the end.
*He grabs the wrist, drawn by the child's hand on his sleeve. The fever is seriously high*

*softly removes the pillow, wipes off the child's tears with a thumb* I don't understand... You end up ALONE in the end. Everyone does. What's the point of being noticed then? Why do humans want to be remembered?

Oh, that's not why she loves me. She was rather... (thinking of little Sophie, but stops) All I can say is that it's not me who decides the order. *takes the child's outstretched hand and lays it down on the pillow* I can't promise anything no matter how I love her or love you.

But you also know you won't be able to meet the cat again. Never you can, for the little one belongs to me now. How does it feel? *puts the boy down on his bed* The cat influenced you so; and you may influence others in the same way - including your mama. Do you still want to be like the little one?

I already told her so. Numerous times. She doesn't want to fully admit it... that is her way of finding comfort. And hiding from everything to Death can be your way of finding comfort. I'm willingly welcome you.

*led by the boy, places a hand on the boy's forehead* That won't work. You can't solve any problem by simply hiding it away. *covering Rudolf's eyes with the hand* You only pretend it has disappeared. And do you know what does it mean to become of "son of the Death"? It's like...

Your title doesn't mean anything to me like your father's. Come, my boy, as long as you want me to give you a rest... *hugging Rudolf back, he notices that the child has a high fever* ...you can be soft and weak in my arms. But I think it'll be you to be happier than your mama if I were your father.

Why not just ask me to get closer? *as Rudolf pulls him, he moves right next to him this time, puts his arm around the boy's shoulders* Have no fear for me. I am your closest friend whenever the world is unfair to you. Do not care other's saying for your "imaginary friend", as you did for your mama.

*only smiles, stopping the tugging* You can be a good boy with me. Just remember that doesn't mean you make your mama more in love with you. And you'd feel disattachment for others - even perhaps for your mother - once you're deeply in favor of having me. Do you want me to be your best friend still?

Nonsense! You should know that the matters of the heart are totally different from what you've learned from your teachers. She loves me more than anyone in this world. *looks into the boy's eyes, who's now holding the sleeve* And you do too, though not as much as she does.

It could be you who make the world less mean. *sits next to the little boy* But it'll never be you to make your mom feel better. It can never be enough... especially if you're with me.
