Damn straight they won't see you until afterwards. I'll let you up into the rafters to really mess with them.
[Hell, they can even go in a few hours early to let Riz really prowl around and find the best sniping position.]
I know it's tough when you're healing and want to do more. But trust me, you don't want that broken bone to come talking to you every time it rains for the rest of your life.
[Of course, if Mando gives him access to them, he'll have a bit of an easier time getting up there, but he was always going to go there. It's a good place to snipe from!]
[Riz already has plans for his afterlife. He'll just join his dad in the heavenly Taskforce. He's already a consultant there, surely that means he can just join after death.
Unfortunately, however, not something he can talk about.]
Okay, what are the Manda? Are those, like, your gods?
Yes, that's about it. All our souls join together and become a collective Mandalorian consciousness. We're reunited with our ancestors if we have them, and we can wait for anyone else we know to join us after their deaths.
[repeated patiently as if that was a super normal thing to say.]
It's an old Goblin belief. Maglubiyet is the Goblin god of war and his followers believe that after death, every goblin soul goes to join his eternal army in hell. He overthrew and killed a lot of the other Goblin gods, so most of the remaining ones are about this level of pleasant.

[Mando sighs and shakes his head.]
Some of them are getting mouthy and need a lesson.

[Riz gestures slightly.]
After its over, of course. They won't be seeing me before that.

You just sounded like every old person ever.

Yeah, I know. And trust me, someday you'll think back on this conversation and realise I was telling the truth.

Sounds like getting old sucks.

[Riz tries, for a moment, to imagine an afterlife like that, but nah, very much not his scene.]
Hey, I guess it beats being 'recruited' into Maglubiyet eternal hell army.

[Mando is going to need more detail on that, please.]

It could be worse, I suppose.

Not much. No worries though, I know I won't end up there.

[Cause, you know, his friend is a goddamn Archdevil who owns a whole ass hell domain. He can go and chill there.]

[Mando sighs and shakes his head.]
You lead an interesting life, Riz.
no subject
[He literally doesn't. Cause Riz can't tell him about it with Kalina in his head. Maybe some day though.]
And Fig technically doesn't just have a house in hell. She rules hell. Well, a small part of it, at least. We went to court about that and everything.
no subject
[You know what, this is a little much for Mando.]
Sounds like you have a backup plan, then. Just in case.
