A Serious Problem for a Friendly Soul

"Well, we've finally finished undoing these damn incarnations," I muttered as we approached the heavenly gates.

"You're the one who can rejoice, but I…" he sighed until his ectoplasm bubbled.

"Why are you complaining?"

"Why? Just look at me."

I looked and only now realized the problem.

While my soul had two minor cavities, his looked like Swiss cheese.

I felt sorry for him, but he might have been good - he could have ripped the rotten bit and thrown it into the ectoplasmic furnace after every incarnation when he was bad.

By the way, the furnace was named: Hell 2.0.
