*Teru thought this was the Flight Room. He even heard the giant fan whirring inside. But when he enters - suddenly there are two of him, apparently identical. One of them turns and looks apprehensively at the other, who rolls his eyes.*
Yes, we still look the same. I thought we were over the whole 'what if I'm secretly evil' thing?
...sorry. I'm

Suddenly, there were two. On the right there was a dirt-covered, scrawny version of himself. Not quite the way he looked when he first arrived; it was the image of himself that he imagined when he had no choice but to think of his situation. Lying on the floor, hands and feet tied behind his back, with every white part of his body now tainted with brown. The wretched figure breathed heavily, staring at the floor with a tired and desperate expression.
"We’re going to die," he said in a gruff, dry, voice. It was chilling to hear, leaving a terrible sound ringing in the air. "This respite won’t last forever."
"We won’t," said a voice from the left. In contrast to the one on the ground, this one was standing with his arms and feet bound. He was clean and full, still white and pure ( ... )

*The Matt with the cigarette stares at both Nears, while the other frowns.*

"I was captured by Kira," the standing Near explained.

Jesus, man He's probably... do you need help? With the stuff on your wrists?

The reaction from the standing one wasn't as extreme. The paler one remained calm. "Unfortunately, it seems that the bindings are an effect of the room. We weren't bound before we came in." He turned his head to speak directly both redheads. "Are you Matt?"

*But he breaks off, watching as the other Matt gets down and - rather roughly - starts working at the ties restraining the Near on the ground.
He just said -
Might as well try, for fuck's sake. Have a look at his, will you?
*With what might be a faintly apologetic look (it's hard to read his facial expressions behind the vest and goggles, the quieter Matt approaches Near.* Uh - do you mind if I have a look?

The other Near watched Matt for a moment before answering: "I don't mind."

Matt. *While his other half curses over the ropes, Matt works quietly, concentrating. He is right, though. You're safe. Only so much can happen to you here. *He decides to not mention the handful of murders.*

"That's not true," came the protest. "Kira hasn't won. I refuse to accept it."

What happened? Where are you being - do you know where you're being held?

That was before, Matt. *This Matt is working differently on the binds, and has only just released Near's wrists. If you spoke to one of the Ls here, they could probably tell you where you are. It might help.

The standing Near flexed his wrists when he felt them released. "He has a point. None of the SPK are alive, Mello and Matt are missing-"
"Mello and Matt are dead. There is no one left to release us."

The other Near answered. "...I don't know. It changed the first few times and then I lost track."

If your world's like ours, me and Mello probably are dead.
But it pretty blatantly isn't like ours. We'd try to infiltrate.
Right. But if we weren't - get yourself fitter, here. Get back on it. There'll be someone you can use - you're fucking Near, man.
