[The new curse has resulted in the Villa gaining one (1) formidable-looking resident Responsible Adult(TM), a nine-foot tall being shrouded in a full-length black cloak and cowl, his face obliterated by mask in the shape of a characature of a skull (as depicted).
Behold, Vatheon, the visage of your new Death Personified, the identity of whom is only revealed when he at last speaks, raising two hands out of his cloak to clap them, twice.]
All right, children! It's the beginning of a new week, and I trust you all know what that means--
[For those who know him, this is Death the Kid, all "grown up". By his recollection, he's been kicking around for hundreds of years, and Death City, the place of his birth, is a distant and fond memory.]
--It's time for our field trip to the coral!
[And it seems he's taken to caring for a Villa full of young children like a fish to water. The apple, it appears, didn't fall far from his father's proverbial tree.]
Line up single file in the foyer, please. If we're done early, we can all have hot chocolate in the Plaza. Don't be late, punctuality is a virtue second only to cleanliness!
[ooc; open to action threads, too, both in the villa and around the bubble.]

The coral?
[Video]
[The cloaked and forbidding figure has a certain cheery inflection he borrowed from his father, long ago. A tribute to a great god.]
You'll hear all about it on the field trip. You're welcome to join us, of course, I wouldn't turn away an avid student.

Where can I meet everyone? I'unno where this coral thingy is.
Um, an', my name's Dave. What's your name?
[Video]
[He doesn't want to alarm him, and for all that he's managed to not send (most) children screaming in fear, he's more successful if he delays introducing himself as Death.]
If you can get directions from someone to the Villa, we can take you with us.

M'kay. C'n I call you somethin' else until I find out your real name?
[Video]
[He'll accept nothing less--no, okay, he'll accept a lot in the name of making the children feel at ease.
After all, you know what they say about souls and sound minds and bodies, etc!]
[Video]
[He wears a skull, Jack Skellington has a bare skull for a head kinda sorta. It obviously works, right?]
[Video]
[Ha ha, oh man. Tim Burton is probably only the BIGGEST MOVIE PRODUCER CELEBRITY EVER to the citizens of Death City. The mask covers everything.
Including a lot of flattered blushing.]
[Video]
[Well, he can tell Kid's happy, and that's all this little kid needs to know.]
[Video]
[Older Kid is a lot more indulgent of the children than his younger, more hard-assed self. Apparently it takes two centuries for him to get the hell over it.]
