i would play 1.d5 against 1.e4 just after super gluing 'death' to his chair and the chair to the ground.

just in case i'm losing i can run off.

But what are you playing against 1.e3, which is Death's first move in this scenario?

Death capitulates immediately! With a sigh that sounds like the opening of a door on rusty hinges, Death tips over the white king with a withered finger. Congrtulations! Any plans for your newly-won immortality?

If white played 1.e3 i'd probably play ..Nf6 as the position is probably going to head into a d-pawn opening...
