-Mello, clad in his best black vinyl club-going outfit, bursts through a nearby door. He's assuming this is the familiar territory of the dorm, and not really paying attention to details - not initially, anyway. He shouts, in exasperated tone:

... Oi, Near! Come on already, we're supposed to -

-He stops, midsentence, and whips off his

Nat?

In some universe, I allow you to call me Nat?

*fingers brushing the wall for reference*

[yourfinaldeeds]

-Stares. Near as a boy? That's just too weird. But if this is a hallucination, best to just go with it, right?-

Yeah, like you could stop me.

[coordinated_n]

I'd call you 'Marsh-Mello' for the rest of your natural life.

*Not only a boy, but apparently focused on the wall two feet to the left of where Mello is.*

[yourfinaldeeds]

-Eyebrow arch-

You could try. Pretty sure I'd be handing you your ass on a daily basis if you did, though.

[coordinated_n]

Which would be different how?

Has it stopped me yet?

[yourfinaldeeds]

You tell me.

-Mello notes the fact that this Near isn't quite facing him, but doesn't mention it. It's probably more interesting to watch him a bit longer.-

I hadn't realized you had started. You were talking hypothetically, last I checked.

[coordinated_n]

Oh, I'm referring to the overarching 'yet' of 'things Mello has temper tantrums about.'

[yourfinaldeeds]

-Snickers-

Surely you must have me confused with someone else - maybe that cheap hooker version of me. I don't throw temper tantrums.

[coordinated_n]

No, I've met him. For one thing, he's not cheap, and for another, he seems more mature than you thus far. We're sharing a room, actually.

[yourfinaldeeds]

-Scoffs-

Whatever you say, kiddo. I can do without the TMI, though.

[coordinated_n]

Companionably, nothing else.

Now, you're new. Do you need to know where the kitchen, or rooms are?

[yourfinaldeeds]

-Mello blinks. He's not really sure what to make of this Near. He looks so much like his Near - well, except for the obvious differences - but his personality seems completely opposite the Near he knows.-

Uh ... Nat's gonna show me around. But thanks anyway ... I guess.

[coordinated_n]

You're welcome.

*He unfolds his cane with a few sharp snaps, and starts tracing his way towards the top of the stairs.*

If you need anything, I'm probably the last person you'd ask, but I would try to help.

[yourfinaldeeds]

I'll ... keep that in mind.

-He watches after Near, puzzled, as Near moves away from him. Yep, this has definitely been one of the stranger encounters Mello has had lately.-
