[The device flickers on, shifting as though on shakey ground and there is the dull shuffle of footsteps, skin on wood. Squeaking boards. The source seems to retreat in an unhurried fashion and it's quiet for some time, though there is a muffled murmur from the window. And the minutes drag on and on. And on. The view is of a hotel room, window ( Read more... )

Ah, it's good to see you again.

Mm, I'm afraid I'm not familiar.

[L just wanted tea and honey; not social interaction.]

I take it we have met before, though.

[According to Mello, he's been here for quite some time, so it wouldn't be a stretch to insert familiarity in unfamiliar faces. And while, yes, he has awoken to the same dream, it will be a few more days before he fully accepts the situation]

Ah...

[hadn't someone mentioned this? Ginko had -- people who came back with no memory of before]

My name is Iroh. We used to be neighbors. You and another young man used to come by for tea and bring me extra eggs.

[...

He had neighbors.

And knew them.

And visited for tea?]

It's a pleasure to meet you, then. I suppose you know my name.

[Rather. L is unaware of the alias he has chosen to offer.]

[What? No, there's no hesitation there.]

Alright. ...You're alive, yeah?

[Slow blink.]

Yes. I have gone without tea before.

[Is L fucking with him?]

That's not what I meant.

[A light exhale, and if it's quiet enough, the slight creaking of leather can be heard as Mello pushes himself from the chair.]

You're alone?

Ah . . . Hello?

[This guy looks confused.]

[L offers a very similar response to his initial introduction.]

Mm? Yes?

[Oh.]

Oh, um, sorry. You just looked . . . kinda new? Is this your first time here?

[voice] l_shrugged August 30 2010, 03:02:26 UTC
How do I look "new"?

[He's picking at his shirt.]

Here?

[L is not Matt's favorite person ever, especially here. It's not like he's jealous or anything, 'cause why the hell would he be? But if L's going to pull another maneuver like he did last time, and have Mello knocking himself out in the hopes of impressing him, that's kinda Matt's business now. He can't manage this V thing all alone. Something's off, though, so Matt opens with the same line he used before.]

Hey. What do you go by here?

[Sorry. L doesn't exactly know who this brunet is, even with the video option enabled, and so he responds with voice. In a dull tone.]

An individual usually introduces oneself before requesting another's name.

[Yeah, no more video for you.]

Matt. And I was only asking so I didn't blow whatever cover you've got going here.

[Matt.]

Mello's friend.

[He murmurs it absently, recalling an offhanded mention of the man while he and his successor spoke the prior night. Ah - and there might have been a Matt at the orphanage as well. Yes.]

It's a pleasure, Matt. Mm, you may call me Ryuuzaki.
