It’s so funny to me when gay mentally ill nerds on the internet put more historical research into their fucked up homoerotic fanfiction than major networks do for their period dramas

Not getting over this anytime soon. The aggressive Symbolism (tm) of it... in scenes with this set Rudolf is literally one foot in the grave (or rather, sitting or lying down right where his coffin will be)

ASMR | Elisabeth das Musical - Der Tod x Listener SFW Death Becomes Entranced And Seduces A Lonely Prince
[M4M/GF4M] [Prince! Listener] [Seduction] [Manipulation] [Kissing - no character death, lore here is Death's kisses can kill if it's 'your time' but if it's not they don't but they're still cold and cause temporary frostbite-like symptoms] [TW implies the listener is depressed and has been experiencing suicidal ideation, Death at points advises the listener to kiss him which would kill them, please skip this audio if you think these issues could affect or trigger you and if you are affected by these issues please seek help and contact hotlines in your country. This audio is fictional, Death's attempts to be a voice of suicidal ideation should not be taken seriously nor applied to real life.] 
I've been wanting to make this audio for so long. While I've left it ambiguous enough to be enjoyed as an original audio, this character is actually from my favourite musical 'Elisabeth das Musical'. It's a German-language dark queer historical romance where Death (Der Tod) is drawn to those who think about him, in particular it follows the life of Elisabeth, Empress of Austria, and her son Rudolf. The musical does deal with serious mental health topics and some historical events from that time including the rise of fascism so please know that going in, but if you think you can handle such topics then I couldn't recommend the musical enough. 
The original 1992 Vienna production is on Youtube with English subtitles, that is my favourite production and means a lot to me as Uwe Kroger as Death is just... perfection to me, very much gender envy and has been a big influence on me and helped me with accepting myself and my gender expression, and his characterisation of Death as this genderfluid, pansexual otherworldly being is just beautiful. And if you enjoy then I'd also recommend the 2005 Vienna production which is also on Youtube with English subtitles mostly for the few extra added song and Serkan Kaya's performance as Lucheni.
For those of you in my Patreon Discord server, I streamed this musical last Sunday in there for you guys and it finally felt like the perfect time to bring this audio to life. And if Kronprinz is still around, I know you were requesting a Der Tod audio for a long time and I hope you're happy with this one. The listener in this audio series takes the place of Rudolf, but you don't need to know anything about the musical to understand these audios. I chose to present them more like my original royalty series audios as Elisabeth das Musical is not very well known outside of mainland Europe and Japan, so I hoped by framing it this way with a photograph of myself cosplaying Death from a couple years ago would entice more people who aren't familiar with the musical. 
I love this musical so much, European musicals in general are my biggest interest and if you go searching for them it wont be long until you find my sfw account @emptymasks posting too much about them. If you're interested in learning more I have some masterlists and info posts pinned on my emptymasks Tumblr, but also as part of my subathon rewards I am doing a stream on my Twitch explaining about infodumping about European musicals and I've been working on some video essays for years that I hope to get finished this year that will be up on my emptymasks Youtube channel. I also run @europeanmusicals . If any mutuals or followers from my main or side blogs finds this... well hello there, I find myself nervous to drop this in the euro musical tags, as if people are going to find this format of fanwork weird but well... I had fun, I hope you guys are nice about this (nice doesn't mean you have to like it, but please don't be mean about it if you just don't enjoy asmr or audio content).
Something something if I had a nickel for every time Prince voiced a personification of Death from different fandoms I'd have three nickels.

I will NEVER shut up about this because the amount of interpretations of the 1992 production of Elisabeth there are is INSANE.
First, we have the character of Der Tod. Who is he? You can see them as an actual entity who guides souls to the afterlife. You can see them as a physical manifestation of the characters' inner struggles. You can also see them as an entity conjured up by Lucheni in the purgatory as a way to shift the blame off of himself perhaps.
What about his intentions? You can view Tod as an otherworldly, immortal entity who genuinely had feelings for Elisabeth or you can see him as someone who was obsessed with her perseverance and defiance and only wished to collect her soul and did not actually care for her (even though he does say he loved her in the prologue?). One interesting part is how Tod lays Elisabeth's body on the floor at the very end. What could that mean?
On the topic of intentions, there's also the case of Tod's relationship with Rudolf. Was Tod merely using Rudolf to send Elisabeth into despair once her only son had passed? Or was there a genuine connection between the two, with Tod being a true friend to Rudolf and not having much influence on the Kronprinz's choice to actually take the gun?
And the visual aspect of the original 1992 Tod played by Uwe Kröger? Gives you so much room for interpretation as well. Is Tod's form crafted to suit the taste of the characters? Or is it just the usual form he takes when interacting with any human? Is the way he looks ACTUALLY his usual form? Maybe he doesn't even have a body but needs to look human-like so that mortals don't automatically run away screaming. And do the characters actually see him the same way the audience does? In "Maladie", he does come to Elisabeth with virtually no disguise (he doesn't even have the hat he uses in later versions). He kind of claims to be Dr. Seeburger, how come neither the staff nor Elisabeth recognise him when we, the audience, can clearly see it's Tod?
There's also the aspect of Tod willingly participating in Lucheni's staging of Elisabeth's life. He's not really one of the puppets, so does that mean every now and then, whenever Lucheni needs to go over the entire story while arguing with the Judge, Der Tod comes over out of his free will and joins in to play his part? What does he get out of this? Does he simply wish to see Elisabeth or Rudolf again? Who knows!
You can't be certain when it comes to anything about 1992 Tod's character or the entire musical for that matter. It's all up to the viewer to decide what they think is the truth and that's why I feel like so many people can find this musical interesting - you aren't served a ready-made story, but can somewhat choose what you think happens or what certain characters are like. The mysterious feel of it all is what really makes this version stand out.
