11 PM - Kitchen Thread

[eraser_rain]

[All characters have relocated to the kitchen where they've set envelopes on the table; characters were encouraged (but not required on any game-based level) to put anything besides their welcome message/map into the envelope. Fake outs, of course, allowed. Separate thread by requests since it's been about two months. If your character put anything in their envelope, a reminder that you can post an anonymous comment with the contents of an envelope here, just be sure to PM sheep_dog to let them know you did in case there's any questions. Once your character's made a reply we'll assume you've had a chance to leave any message. Feel free to leave your anonymous messages in or outside the thread.

Characters can put their vote-off post on the bulletin board after the kitchen thread, but due to OOC issues Haneoka had to be the one voted off the first round. We've confirmed enough characters will vote her off anyway but feel free to list whoever else you want. You can do that anonymously too if you prefer.]

Kitchen Envelope Thread

[eraser_rain]

[11PM isn't that late, but various things throughout the last twenty-four hours have been trying his patience. Standing by, he waits for the opening to begin.]

Re: Kitchen Envelope Thread

[inthecolosseum]

[Once everyone has arrived, Ryuk goes about opening the envelope with a slice of a thick nail, humming briefly to himself as he does.]

(This is the spot to insert anything you put in!)

[(Anonymous)]

[One envelope has what looks like the same map and letter (http://sheepwolf.dreamwidth.org/1578.html) everyone got.]

[(Anonymous)]

[As does another.]

[(Anonymous)]

[As does yet another.]

Envelope 3

[andeatit]

[A set of prints that match the same prints Light just had taken.]

[(Anonymous)]

[And another. With a picture with things written on lined notebook paper and printed on regular white printer paper.]

Can't tell you who the killer is on this piece of paper. It's on the other piece that's normal paper attached to this one. Maybe you should not let everyone know you know that you know. They might think that because it's on another paper you changed it. If you write their name down will it stop them from killing? Do you think you can save everyone by doing it that way? Keep in mind that someone who is already dead cannot be killed. At least not by this paper or the other papers like it.

[eraser_rain]

[As probably expected, this envelope's got Mikami's fingerprints on it.]

Envelope #2

[eraser_rain]

((OOC: confirmed with relevant players no prints on Envelope #2, that way nobody thinks we're waiting on a comment here.))

Envelope 1

[takethecake]

[Thumb and index finger prints only.]

[(Anonymous)]

[Another letter contains the charred remains of the letter and map. On the map, a room is circled with the words "Come 2 mai pad!" scribbled nearby.]

[takethecake]

[With five I think we can assume that's everyone. Assume they're opened in order?]

By the way, Shinigami. Can you tell if a piece of paper is from a Death Note or not?

[inthecolosseum]

[He grins broadly for a moment.]

Well, there's one easy way to find out.

[There is, however, if someone is very sensitive to tone and/or body language, a little bit of a hesitation. His humorous response may be covering a "No," unless he's a savvy enough actor to be intentionally projecting that impression falsely.]

1/2

[takethecake]

So the paper will work when removed from the book itself. [His eyes turn to Light.]

2/2

[takethecake]

[andeatit]

[As Light is looking at Ryuk while hearing his answer, it takes a second for him to notice the look from L. When he does, he blinks once.]

I was assuming as much for the sake of caution. [So why are you looking at me? seems to go implied.]

[takethecake]

[His attention goes back to Ryuk without answering that unspoken question.]

Are there any ways to find out without using it to kill somebody?

[andeatit]

[No, he answered it.]

Without... [He says the word, eyes unimpressed on L before going to Ryuk to await the answer.]

[inthecolosseum]

Eh... actually, no.

[Being cornered into stating this outright seems to have embarrassed him, just a tiny bit.]

[takethecake]

There doesn't seem to be anything that keeps a Shinigami from answering questions. Then, while opening the second envelope, tell us everything that you do know about the Death Note and its uses, if you would be so kind.

Mikami-san if you would put on the tea and bring one of the sugar bags from the pantry. Thank you.

[eraser_rain]

[Other than a sidelong glance in his direction to make it clear he did hear that, Mikami otherwise pretends he did not, returning his attention to Ryuk both regarding the question he was asked and in terms of the next envelope.]

[inthecolosseum]

[The shinigami seems perhaps just the tiniest bit offput by being grilled so directly, drawing his height up a bit more upright, though he replies smugly as he cuts the envelope with his fingernail like a letter opener to reveal its contents.]

The human whose name is written in a Death Note will die. The user must picture the specific target's name, and face. Once this is done, the user has 40 seconds to write the cause of death. If no cause is provided, or the cause of death isn't possible, they will die by heart attack. There's a six minute, forty second deadline for writing details after this if it's provided. And yes, this means the target can be controlled, to some extent. They can't do anything that's impossible for them, though.

((Since the contents of each envelope have been fairly generic, I think we can assume he continues to cut the rest of them open without much fanfare or prelude.))
