"Dear HRH Prince @Mlp_Mortis,

While I appreciate your dedication to your duties and your tireless work ethic, I believe those batteries had another week of life in them at least, possibly more.

I entreat you to return them so I can listen to my favorite podcasts while at spin class.

You must come around for tea and bone broth, should your schedule permit it.

Yours affectionately,

--C of E"

Prince Mortis Ledger adjusts his monocle before replying.

“Your Highness,

The batteries in question were logged as ‘expired’ and duly processed by the Department of Eternal Transition. Their service has… concluded.

However, I will gladly return them for a temporary extension.

Tea and bone broth would be agreeable. My schedule permits one hour between eternity and paperwork.

Respectfully,
—Prince Mortis Ledger” 💀📜
