      I’ve just converted to polytheism and have begun praying to the Emoji God asking them to use 1,000 origami cry laughing Emojis to smite you down, so that you may die how you lived.

      I hope it won’t be quick, or painless, but that’s up to the Gods now.

        Considering that we’re talking about emojis, it’ll definitely be silent.
