Mah boi here is complicated. I have this concept for Reapers called Death's Curse, so whenever they contact physically with any living creature it will become cursed and withered, the lucky dying immediatley. Mike wasn't lucky, but he survived the curse itself. And now he's A-symptomatic, so he can't deal with that same curse again. Mike is kiiinda a reaper but not a God of Death. He's classified as a "Lucid Reaper" You may see why later lol
Sorry if you don't like having to continue like scrolling the BG or panning over to the bois
