Prompt 2: In a competition with Death to stay in world I think cheating would be almost mandatory. Or at least tricking. I would challenge him to a hardest hitting competition. Where we hit each other against the boards as hard as possible until one of us gives up. I am pretty tough so I believe I could take quite a beating. Also, even if I lose I get to go out beating the crap out of death, and that would be quite the story to tell. But my real plan would ask if I could hit him first, as he is Death and I would surely lose immediately. Death knowing this would let me have this final wish and allow it. My first hit would start the competition, and Death could not kill me until I gave up. I would then never throw that first hit to start the competition, thus never losing. Checkmate, Death.
