don't think 'cause I understand, I care. [ OPEN, in-progress ]
Characters; Beyond Birthday and anyone else!
Setting/Location; New Utopia, wandering (if a specific location in NU is established, this will be updated to reflect that, as well as the above participants) a library!
Date & Time; Day 7, morning.
Warnings; None, as of posting.
Briefing; Advisor Birthday is exploring. You're free to join and bug him, but be warned; he'll probably be extra snarky.
The networks were quiet lately, and names had been disappearing rapidly -- an interesting alternative to numbers disappearing upon death, but one that worried him. He had heard rumors, "soul glitches," but hadn't bothered to ask questions himself: his last (only, really) experience with L had seriously dampened asking questions as a way to satisfy his curiosity. Through observation, not interrogation, and in a way he was determined not to disappoint the detective again, perhaps L had expected better from him, and of course he should have given better.
Now he was in a battle against L he hadn't initiated, and he was somewhat grateful. He had learned that the libraries in New Utopia were the most expansive, and the best places to find histories. His interests lay less with exploring New Utopia and more with absorbing as much knowledge about the warring countries as possible. As soon as he was free to do so he set out, dressed not in his Veritian uniform as he did to blend in on the campgrounds, but in his home clothing, jeans and a long-sleeved, white shirt, everything extremely clean, but untidy. His white sneakers padded softly on the ground, and his eyes were raised, reading faces and names; if everyone really had been moved here, then L and Mello would be here as well, and as he wasn't quite certain what either of them would look like now, he would have to read their names to be sure. The other names he observed were simply filed away for future association.
