#there's a possible added flavor of despite it all life is fond of puss and death (who's seen his clownery via his various deaths)

[devotion-between-the-wheat]

for the actual involvement of life in the plot of the p.nb movie, I'm considering the idea of at the start of puss' various lives, life would vist him. they'd pass themselves off as a random fairy and so on, and would occasionally try to nudge him in the direction of improving himself. it wouldn't take of course, but that's the point.

and of course when the ninth life rolls in, things shift.

I like the idea of when death takes over, and his subsequent hunt, it is something both him and life agreed upon.

but part of me is uncertain about it, but also I like the concept that the two do respect each other's domains most of the time, and have good communication, and because of that it adds a flavor of you're stuck in here with me now when it comes to puss' situation.

and it can be read as life is going at the angle of sink or swim, improve or be struck down, whereas death doesn't expect him to change, but nonetheless.
