THE EXCHANGE MEME BY DEADGP
You can answer these questions with your own voice, or you could go all the way and answer with your characters actually speaking. It's all cool here as long as you FILL IN SOME ANSWERS.

1. Well you can't go entering an OCT without a character or three now can you? Why not introduce him/her/them/it?
”Alexander Phillips. Please take your hand off my book, now.”
“Cadmus Amyntoros.” *shakes hands* “Nice seeing you.”
“Harmonia Love, and your hair is very unique, isn’t it?”

2. Wow, interesting! And what soul do they want back so badly that they'd risk eternal damnation in an endless labyrinth of PURE TERROR?!
Alex: *looks away*
Cadmus: *looks at Alex*
Harmonia: *sighs* Jason Matthews. He’s… a friend of Alex’s.
Alex: More my mum’s, really.
Harmonia: *pointed stare*
Cadmus: He was an innocent man and shouldn’t have died.

3. How noble. Well now that the formalities are out of the way, what do your characters think of good ol' Death?
Cadmus: I had thought of meeting Thanatos, but *shrugs* I suppose Death updates Himself.
Alex: Wouldn’t it be Teleute?
Cadmus: Because we’re male? I’m not sure that that’s how it works.
Alex: No, true, the Iliad shows Thanatos…
Harmonia: *hits Alex, clamps a hand over Cadmus’ mouth* He’s Death. Do you really expect me to have an opinion?

4. If your character(s) were to spend a day in the city of Nothing, what would they do? (Gamble, get hookers and blow, enjoy some fine dining, etc.)
Cadmus: One must not taste the fruits of Hell, or staying here is inevitable.
Harmonia: And we’d rather not weigh the scales against us. Even more.
Alex: *doesn’t bother looking up from book* Do we look stupid? Or ignorant about the concerned lore?

5. It's the final round of the tournament and your characters are a part of it! BUT they suddenly realize how they could escape the Labyrinth and return home to the mortal world. Would they escape eternal damnation or still fight for their prized soul?
Alex: I would fight.
Harmonia: Which translates into us staying, because Little Brother here can’t fight.
Alex: I’d not dream of keeping you here against you own desire.
Cadmus: Alexander.
Alex: *subsides*

6. Death hit a pothole of divine proportions and has to replace a tire. Would your character(s) give him a hand with the repairs?
Alex: erm… no.
Cadmus: I’d certainly try.
Harmonia: I don’t repair things or replace tyres. That’s why you have mechanics.

7. Your characters have grown tired of Sympathy for the Devil on loop in Death's truck. If given the chance, what one song would they prefer to listen to the whole way down? (ONLY ONE YOU INDECISIVE WHORE)
Alex: Sound of Silence? Failing that, anything by Zeppelin?
Harmonia: *stares*
Alex: What? I like classic rock.
Cadmus: *stares*
Alex: *sighs* Do you think he has Greek choral odes or Mozart? Because I don’t.

8. I apologize for that outburst. How would your characters react to such language?
Alex: *shrugs* It was hardly as if I was being called a prostitute, and an outburst may occur for many reasons. *attempts to read questioner’s mind*
Cadmus: A tad excessive, I’d think.
Harmonia: Why my dear cunt-sucking arse-licking mother-fucker, think nothing of it.

9. Reverse the roles! What would it be like if the soul being fought for was your character and it was trying to save your current team's soul(s)?
Cadmus: I’ve not really known him in life, so I *looks at Alex* cannot truly offer an opinion.
Harmonia: Dr. Matthews? Really? *fingers swords* erm…
Alex: He’d try. Nothing more anyone can do.

10. Death got pulled over for reckless driving. Would your characters help hide 'the stash'?
Alex: The souls?
Cadmus: He’s using them for fuel, I believe. So, perhaps, yes.
Harmonia: If you think I’m getting stuck walking to Hell, you’re dreadfully wrong.

11. Haha, silly. 'The stash' was just some Lucky Charms. Anyway, how determined are your characters to find some crazy loophole that would allow them to escape the inescapable Labyrinth?
Alex and Harmonia: *steal a glance at each other* Yes.
Cadmus: It’s hardly a bad idea.
Alex: Once we have Jason, I mean.

12. Would your characters be interested in letting defeated characters tag along if their group size permitted it?
Harmonia: No.
Alex: *frowns, flips a page of his book, doesn’t answer*
Cadmus: I don’t know whether I would be able to trust a foe. So, perhaps. Likely not, though.

13. Did your characters use the restroom before they left with Death? Because there are no rest stops on the highway to hell and those restrooms in Nothing are downright nasty.
Alex: Yes.
Cadmus: You’re getting annoyingly personal, aren’t you?
Harmonia: Yes. Master Amyntoros here had a checklist. Pack; re-pack; shut off the gas; go to loo; lock the…
Alex: Don’t worry, I did.

14. Admit it: You noted the host of this here tournament and asked how Death would react to your characters trying to inconvenience him. Did anything sound like it would piss Death off?
Alex and Cadmus: *stare at Harmonia*
Harmonia: *affects innocence* I did nothing.
Cadmus: Wait. Noted who? What?
Fourth Wall: *cracks slightly*

15. LAST QUESTION: One of your team members has died. Would your other characters opt to save the prize soul or attempt to revive their fallen friend? If your character is alone, would they have grown close enough to a tagalong to save them had one of them died instead of the prize?
*short pause*
Cadmus: The decision lies with Alexander, of course, finally.
Alex: Yes, of course. How can you…
Harmonia: Calm down, Little Brother.
Alex: But I would.
Cadmus: Of course.

You fought well, my dearest opponent, and I was glad to have fought such an awesome writer. I'm sad to see you go so early, you really could have gone far. And I'm sad to have been the loser who kicks you out of play :(
