Cake & OCD 001 - [Video]

[[Unaware he's being watched on some sort of video device, L jerks upright from what could only be the most traumatic thing of his young life. His dark eyes look out from under his messed hair to the sound of his rapidly beating heart in his ears- his heart. ..He touches his chest, looking down there at that point as though that would explain why

[Deep sleep has made Light blissfully unaware of the new arrival that has most unwelcoming-ly taken up residence in his room. In his goddamn bed, nonetheless. Light would have been furious had he been cognizant of that little invasion into his personal space. But mercifully, Light's thoughts are in space, traveling amongst the stars, and their moons. The subtle creak as the mattress dips and rises to accommodate L's weight is not enough to rouse him from his slumber.

Is space supposed to be this cold? He wonders sleepily. Not fully conscious yet, he shivers hugging his legs to his chest for warmth. Had he been fully awake, he would have kicked himself for the stupidity of this line of inquiry. His hands pat around blindly for the covers that are no longer there. Strange... But still, he does not wake. Planets keep his mind engaged far from reality.

It's the voice that finally reaches him. Watari? The name easily pierces into the realms of his subconscious; his dream offers little more resistance than a sheet of rice paper. It's a

[thumbonmylip]

[[L, very deep in his own thoughts, percentages, and his quest to see if he could find Watari.. Surely it wouldn't just be him who's been spared? Then again, maybe this was the after-life. Maybe this is like the lobby of where you stay after you die- seeing a Shinigami uprooted everything his scientific mind had come to agree with. He's not sure that he's not dead anymore, perhaps you don't stay conscious for your entire death- but what was the last thing he remembers

[Light's world blearily comes into view as he brings the back of his hand to his eyes. On the precipice of wakefulness and sleep-- perfectly hypnopompic state-- it takes a short moment for the images relayed by his retina to be fully processed by his cerebral cortex. The cream color represents the ceiling, the blankets are oddly enough nowhere to be felt; he quickly scans the room from the supine position only to find something unexpected. Something new.

He recognizes the porcelain as a flesh tone, the untidy raven locks as hair, but it's a split second delay before everything snaps into kaleidoscopic focus, a vortex folding in on itself.

[Ryuzaki. L. It's L! Before it even occurs to Light to consider his percentages and what changes L might see fit to make based on his reactions- oh he had not missed that trouble between them-- his eyes become widened in shock, for once a completely un-calculated, innocent response, both at seeing someone he had been convinced is dead in the flesh once again, and at seeing him in such close range. The undignified shout comes out of his throat, before he's aware he even made it.]

AHH-!

[nihilist_blade]

[Ulquiorra had been investigating the new surrounding without rest since his arrival. He had made note of the number of individuals he could sense, and was thus aware of a sudden new appearance. Already being in relatively close proximity to the room he simply sonidos into the room because doors are for squares and approaches the black haired man before him. Hands remaining in his pockets and his posture impeccable as usual.]

By what manner have you arrived here?

LOL doors are for squares LOL *had a giggle-fit*

[thumbonmylip]

[[L's disposition as a human doesn't allow him to feel for anything more than perhaps a physical discomfort, the sixth sense of being watched before the voice instantly has him jerking his head behind him to view the source.

He squares his body away with the person suddenly out of nowhere in his vicinity. ..With the door shut. He didn't remember touching any pieces of paper, any books, any ledgers, nothing. Yet standing before him is something that was almost reminiscent of (if not less repulsive) a Shinigami.

He tugs the blankets tighter around himself as if that were a way to hide or protect himself until he figures the situation. Then again his brain is reminding him this creature just asked him how he got there- if he were a Shinigami he'd know wouldn't he? Maybe not.]]

I woke up here, I could ask you the same thing. Who are you?

I AIM TO PLEASE!

[nihilist_blade]

I see.

[When the human turns around Ulquiorra comes face to face with...his face, well, a close more human replica... with terrible posture. Of course Ulquiorra merely brushed it off as coincidence.]

Ulquiorra Cifer.

[Ulquiorra felt no reason to answer the statement implying how he got there. It wasn't formed as a question, therefore Ulquiorra could ignore it.]

Where were you before you arrived here?

I was joking with Kim, saying they're both FMA verse and from opposite Gate sides LOL

[thumbonmylip]

[[L's a little more likely to want to look and study openly. This is what he's doing as Ulquiorra introduces himself, seeing if perhaps the light that is in the room will provide a little more than just a half satisfactory visual.

The tension obviously in his shoulders (Even though his posture is naturally horrible) shifts the moment he takes a cautious step forward, eyeing the interesting getup in front of him. His dark eyes dart from the detail they were taking in to Ulquiorra's at the line of questioning again. Just what does this matter and what was this guy after? For that matter he was seeming not to want to answer how he got through a closed door. The curious detective answers the man's question with the easiest answer there is to give. One that wouldn't give too much away and if he was called on his bluff about not being in the place he states- he'll know there's more to this than just the door.]]Home

[Conan blinks at the feed for several seconds just staring, baffled by it before deciding maybe he should warn this individual of where they were and what to be on the look out for.]

[...Really Author?! New arrivals? Now?]

[He takes a moment to put on a look of pure innocence as the presence of a small seven year old might be a bit calming- most people liked kids.]

[...Seriously, though? New arrivals? Just dumping them on Isla Nublar with no prior knowledge of the situation... Right, anyway-]

Hello?

[Video]

[thumbonmylip]

[[It takes a few moments before L's face comes back on the screen, after all he's not certain who's voice it is, what this thing really does or if it's truly calling out to him at all.

One way to find out.

He turns the feed toward him the best he thinks he has himself in frame and his studious though otherwise blank features come into sight. He doesn't say anything at first, simply stares at the video of a young child. He scratches his head with one hand, some of his fingers still holding the blanket so that it doesn't slip.]]

Who's this?

[Video]

[always1truth]

[Conan is quickly trying to work through what sort of person this is that he's talking too- so far he can only make out a few things and not near enough to settle his curiosity.

This guy could probably due with more sleep, spends very little to no time in the sun and probably sits behind a computer monitor as right now it looks a bit like the screen had bleached his skin. All of this led him to the conclusion this guy would not stand a chance against the dinosaurs.]

Edogawa Conan, detective.

[Video]

[thumbonmylip]

[[All extremely good situational pick outs, he can tell he's being studied, but not at the depth that Conan really is doing so far. At this point L's convinced its child-like curiosity with perhaps a little more maturity than the young man is letting on by his looks.

L licks his bottom lip if only to wet it, studying the screen and giving it careful consideration. Enjoy the rare look of surprise on L's eyebrows, with how high they've moved at the title the kid gives himself.

White lies to get some answers.]]

If that's true, I've never heard of you. I follow the long arms of justice closely, names, places, dates. Where are you from?

[His first thought when checking the Blackberry is that Beyond Birthday is back. He had been so glad to notice he was gone. The last weeks there had always been the tense feeling he had when thinking about the possibility that B broke free. That he'd kill again. That there'd be so many victims again...

But this isn't B, Mikami soon realizes. The features are different, not only slightly, the longer he watches the more things he notices.
Sadly this only leaves one other conclusion and that was just as bad as the previous one.
This was L.
Light had told him about B's obsession with the detective. The way he copied him. This was probably the original. L

[[L has absolutely no idea what happened here before unlike his mun now!, that so many lives had been lost to a maniac copycat. After meeting Ulqui, things were seeming to get more and more odd, considering everything he'd been through in that one single day.

The sound of his Blackberry going off in this fashion, different than the video feed he had earlier replied to, had him a little bit concerned. Who was it on the other end and why couldn't they show him their face? Instantly he's suspicious of that much. At least they were attempting to help and offering one thing that Ulquiorra and the rest hadn't thusly- direct answers that he'd have at least 76% less reason to disbelieve than if Light said them.

His heart sinks again, further now when he reads that Watari isn't there. How many other people are there?]]

Nothing satisfactory that I'd be willing to believe at full. Who is this and why would you offer to help?

[Mikami understands the feeling of not believing in this. Though he is far from feeling sympathy for Kira's enemy, he still remembers the feeling oh-too-well.]

My name is Teru Mikami and it's usual here to welcome new arrivals and explain this world to them. It's in everyone's interest that newbys are soon integrated in our [defintily not] everyday life. This place can be dangerous at times, not knowing about it could be risky. I don't want people to get hurt. [And that's the truth. There are dinsaurs out there. Explaining the Author's world had never been more urgent]

[[L takes his time reading, the dim light doesn't make it easy on the eyes- though he's used to reading and watching things in the dark over all. His few moments he spares himself to ponder he realizes he really has nothing else to go on than faith at the moment. Even if he hates going on that alone.]]

Dangerous?
With what sort of dangers? Where is this place?

[ At first, Misa really couldn't believe it. She knew that voice. She knew that name. 'Watari' was L's friend, wasn't he? THe old guy that was always around. But L wasn't supposed to be here. He was supposed to be gone. ]

2/3

[the2nd_kira]

[ But, he was here. She already knew a bit what to do. Light told her to pretend she was from the timeline before she got her Death Note and her memories back. So, she was not supposed to know L or Watari. Misa knew that she needed to watch and keep an eye on him for Light.

If this was, Ryuuzaki--- if he knew she had the memories of the Death Note, both she and Light were pretty much going to be in trouble. ]

[the2nd_kira]

[ So, she pastes on her best innocent smile and smiled for the camera. ]

There is no Watari here, Mister!

Just talking bunnies and dinosaurs! Isn't that more interesting?

[ This is Misa trying to be optimistic about the huge dinosaurs around. ]

[Video]

[thumbonmylip]

[[L's personal, rare, pity party of curious wonder aimed out the window he currently took up is abruptly interrupted by a familiar voice. His eyes trek down to the face with equal familiarity and he pulls the device upward, as if that'd answer him in full that it really is Misa.

If it weren't for the shock that he's seen Misa- who apparently doesn't know him which is odd in itself to him at least -he may have just missed the dinosaur thing for a few seconds.]]

Dinosaurs? Bunnies? Misa, what are you talking about? Where are you? This isn't a time to play around.
