[Open Post] Shinigami Shenanigans: Winter Reading

[death_kl0wn]

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

If Ryuk's still out in the main room that night, he might notice a very blond young man walking in.

After living in the Summerlands, Manuel's seen a lot of strange things, but never anything quite like this. He's staring. "What..."

Ryuk will look up from his book and grin, toothily. The kid looks like something straight out of the manga he's reading... though typist willing, he might be able to see through Manuel's illusion. "Hey there, handsome," the thing says.

It's not trying to attack him, as skeery-looking as it is.

He's quite welcome to see through Manuel's illusion.

"Uh..." Manuel says, not quite sure how to go about this, since he has no idea what Ryuk is. And he's not going to ask, because he knows that would be rude.

He'll look closer and stare, and if Ryuk had eyelids, he'd be blinking about now. "Errrrr, whut the hell are you?" he asks, hovering down for a closer look, and he might circle Manuel a few times, head tilted like an art gallery visitor examining a particularly perplexing bit of modern sculpture.

He's never seen anything like this kid before...
