Are (or were) they an invertebrate?
When they were both very clearly alive they were not invertebrates, no. Both were very much born with backbones. This is to rule out football predicting octopuses I take it?

Would you describe this person as "missing" (in the sense of "missing persons")?

Does raise the question of, if I were to claim that Elvis was still alive, would I consider him alive and missing? :?

How can D be a real human, who is not missing, and yet we don't know whether they are alive or dead?

If Octavious is entertaining some kind of Princess Diana conspiracy theory I will not be amused.

It was a rhetorical question, not a game question submission.

Fair enough. Whilst we're on the subject of random musings, is being shocked by hearing this song for the first time more due to being of a certain age or purely due to musical ignorance?

I have been aware of that song for a while, but a lot of people don't realise it exists. Clearly it was the inspiration for a certain track by Coolio.

Did you also know that Chas & Dave appear on the song "My Name Is" by Eminem?

Now that I did know, but Chas and Dave are artists who speak to soul on a more fundamental level than most can manage

-) Is it debatable whether they are dead or not because only some parts of her are still alive?

If the answer for D is yes, is it Henrietta Lacks (born Loretta Pleasant)/HeLa cell line?

-) (mostly meant for C) Are they a mammal?
