[Open Post] Shinigami Shenanigans: Winter Reading

Jan 26, 2013 23:03

It's gotten quiet again after the earthquake that knocked over the house, and Ryuk has long since left his hiding place in a fir tree in the yard, returning to the Mansion and returning to watching the people and critters moving about the main room ( Read more... )

Sebastian pretty much checks three out of those four boxes and so he very much sees Ryuk and may be staring.

More because he's trying to figure out what kind of demon Ryuk is... not out of fear or awe.

"A muscle guy with *bishie sparkles*?" the thing mutters, turning over a page. "Who writes this crazy stuff."

And then he looks up, seeing the newcomer. "Hey there... you can see me?" the thing asks.

"Yes. Of course I can. I'm not some mundane," he says the last word with some distaste.

"Glad to hear: mundanes can get borrrrring, and I hate bein' bored," he says, in fair agreement. "So I take it yer special somehow?" he asks, and he'll look closer at the newcomer.

Alcuin's wandering through with a book of his own--an overview on European history, after he realized what large gaps he has in his knowledge of the version of the world that so many people seem to know. Apparently Rome stopped being a republic long ago.

Walking into the living room, he stops short at the sight of Ryuk. Alcuin has seen odder things in the Mansion, but not by much. Curious, he wanders closer, wondering what this creature is and whether it's friendly. "Hello."

Now here's a kid who looks as pretty as one of the pretty boys in the manga, and Ryuk looks from the book to the young man and back. "Heh, hey there, handsome," he says. "You some kind've angel?"

It seems harmless, if weird to look at.

"Only by heritage," Alcuin says with a smile. He comes over and curls up on a couch near Ryuk's perch, resting his chin on his arms on the side of the couch and watching him, friendly and curious. "I'm D'Angeline. We truly do have the blood of angels in our veins. My name is Alcuin."

The thing sets aside the book and hovers down for a closer look. "A Dee-anjah-what? So yer part angel, yah mean?" the critter asks.

"I'm Ryuk, I'm a shinigami, a Japanese death god. Pleased to meet you." And he might wave in a friendly way that likely looks odd on such a strange-looking thing.

Ines hasn't seen much of Ryuk since that day with the vuvuzela, but his figure is so distinctive, she hasn't forgotten him one bit. And well, she'd found him amusing, and there are very few Mansion dwellers who find mercy in her eyes... amusement, though... certainly purchases it from her.

"Why, hello there," she calls when she sees him. "I see you are still here."

He'll grin on seeing Ines: it's the gal who enjoyed his vuvuzela serenade, and so he'll hover down to her level. "Heh-heh-hey there, Ines: been a while since I saw yah. How's it hanging?"

She still finds him rather odd - like a hiked up version of the Valet, yet much friendlier. “It’s hanging,” Ines replies. “And in fact, I was rather looking forward to seeing you again.”

She might even bat her eyelashes at Ryuk.

She wants something from him.

"Oh? Any reason why? Got someone yah want me to prank?" he asks, curious and intrigued. "I could use someone to have some fun with."

It's thankfully a rather large cabinet, and there is space for two.

Here comes the keeper of the Death Note, then - she'll be wandering about, when she spots the shinigami. It's only a courtesy visit, and she'll settle next to him, in perfect silence, robes settling neatly around Pandora's legs.

"Good evening, Ryuk."

He was hoping he'd see the vampire chick who keeps him on his toes, and he'll grin at her, shifting to make room for her. "Hiya, Pandora! How's it hangin'?" he says, friendly. "So where were you when the house went boom?"

Pandora is amused by Ryuk’s obvious pleasure at seeing her, and she shows it with a toothy smile.

“Here and there,” she replies. “It was quite the harvest, wasn’t it?”

"Didn't do the harvesting, but it was *nuts*: whole house went over; I ended up in a tree outside, watching to see what'd happen next," he says.

"What bugs me is, how the house came *back*?"

Well, if Ryuk is looking for L, he might have to do a little bit more work than just skulk around reading a book and eating apples: our favorite hikkikkomori is well shut in (not that it's a problem for the shinigami), and has in fact begun the fabrication of a few helpful tools. He's noticed the existence of a so-called detective agency, and of course he still has a mild obsession with Alcuin, and so he is preparing a few useful things.

He didn't complain about the lack of technology, aside from a few quiet sighs, but that is the hallmark of his demeanor.

Instead, he focused on better hearing aides, periscopes and telescopes, all collected from the attic, and some awful technology from the 80's. He is trying to fix an old VHS Camera, and finding he really hates analog technology.

At some point, no doubt Ryuk will get bored and go exploring, tracking L down and finding him in the middle of a bunch of junk. He'll stick his head through the ceiling and watch for a few beats, then he asks, "Yer closet explode when the house did, or are you buildin' yer own giant robot?" he asks. "Oooh, maybe a robot girlfriend??"

He reads manga, and thus he can't help but think of the tropes thereof...

L blinks - that really would never occur to him.

"I have no time for such frivolities, shinigami," he says absently while he fiddles with some wiring.

Well, here's one being who could be of use, he realizes.

"I am working on a project."

Ryuk hovers closer, tilting his head. "Huh? What yah workin' on now?? Yer always workin' on something: what is it now??"
