* OddFriendship: Death and the Doe
* RuleOfSymbolism: According to Marsha, the Doe symbolizes life and how it contrasts to Death. In much a vein, we have the colors serving as a symbol, as when things are alive, they are bright or, to very least, somewhat vibrant, however, when they are are close to and are meeting their deaths, the colors the are muted. This is especially the case with ending when the Deer dies, as when Death hugs her, the colors start to dim before darkening (possibly signalling nightfall), as he lays her on the ground.

* OddFriendship: Death and the Doe
Doe, as Death is, well, death and anything he touches will die, so, while he can be close to the Doe as far as proximity goes, he can't interact with her directly, while Doe is a deer that doesn't fear him, actually, she hangs out near him.

!Tropes for ''The Life of Death'':
*BigSleep: When Death touches the bird, wolf, and a rabbit, they close their eyes as they die and looks as if they're falling asleep.
*BittersweetEnding: Death, for the a long time, managed to get understand life and gets a friend for the first time in his long existence, however, while that does happen, he still has the natural order to keep.
*DontFearTheReaper: This has a rather bittersweet but very heartbreaking twist on it.
*DiedInYouArmsTonight: See the "Final First Hug" below
*FinalFirstHug: Death can't hug anything normally, as anything he touches would die, so, when the Doe he befriends is too weak to keep up with her herd, she gives Death one, dying in his arms.
*MayDecemberFriendShip: Death and the Doe, as the latter eventually dies, while Death will continue, well, "being".
