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.]

Comments

[inthecolosseum]

Ah. [He almost hands it over, but quickly thinks better of it - at least for whatever degree it still matters, setting it down.] Almost forgot.

[andeatit]

Almost forgot?

[inthecolosseum]

You can't tell me humans never wander off with something in their hand without meaning to, can you?

[andeatit]

I'm going to make copies and shred them. You're free to watch me, if he doesn't mind a delay in the conversation.

[eraser_rain]

There isn't any reason to make a copy. I'd scanned mine to show you and you did the same. It can be printed from the computer in the office.

[inthecolosseum]

[Ryuk flits his gaze to L for a reaction to this one, his own - if cryptic - body language seeming at least as indifferent as it normally does.]

((This icon might be a little TOO indifferent, but.))

[takethecake]

[Looking from Mikami then to Light, watching their reactions, unlike Ryuk, L is openly invested in the outcome.]

[andeatit]

Copies, scanned or no, are the only important factor. As long as the original is destroyed in the end, it makes no difference. To have everything covered, we need copies of all those in the envelope.

[takethecake]

If you like, Ryuk-san and I can tend to that as we gather the items from the office. He will be able to carry them without leaving marks.

[inthecolosseum]

Hey, don't volunteer my help without asking first. [There's a little wry tone of amusement at least, making it pretty clear his offense is insincere.]

[andeatit]

If you don't mind me coming along, I can leave once it's finished.

[takethecake]

And leave the two of them alone?

[andeatit]

They're adults. I'm sure I can trust them alone long enough to destroy dangerous weapons.

[eraser_rain]

We can all go.

[andeatit]

Then, if you two don't mind staying behind or postponing your talk, let's finally destroy the pages.

[airlynx]

[Atsushi mumbles something unintelligible about a waste of paper and illegal drugs.]

[takethecake]

Then, Ryuk-san and I will have to talk afterwards. If he survives that long...

[He gets down off of the stool. His tone makes it clear it's a terrible burden now that he has to tag along with everybody.]

L tags along on Light's dates, it's only fair

[andeatit]

[Now in possession of all the notes excluding that in Ryuk's possession, he doesn't mind leading the way.]

Since the rest of us will be voting in that time, did you have one ready?

This is Light intruding on L's date with Ryuk.

[takethecake]

Yes. I've made my decision.

That's why it's only fair.

[andeatit]

Probably, all or most of us have. Since we don't have a crime to convict as of now, I'd feel much better sending a mother back to her children with the vote.

[eraser_rain]

Even were a crime committed, I wouldn't agree with sending the most likely culprit away to safety.

[takethecake]

Ryuk-san is the least likely to be a criminal.

[eraser_rain]

The fact that he's alive is proof that he's killed at some point.

[takethecake]

There's no jurisdiction for Shinigami.

[eraser_rain]

We also don't have any duty to him and his safety if he's "innocent" for lack of jurisdiction.
