Off for a ride on the ferris wheel and perhaps some cotton candy. Does anyone around here have a working camera?

In case I don`t return in a couple days, don`t hold back if you absolutely have to have a rescue party assembled. If not, there`s two chocolate bars, a leather belt, a worn-out bible and a manuscript

Are you going to offer your blood to the carnival?

[Private to AU!Near || Unhackable because he`s a dick]

[mellodramatix]

I`m offering nothing until I see what I get in return. But if there`s a deal, it would be foolish to pass it up. Mello taking good care of you?

[Private to OU!Mello || Unhackable then]

[never_ever_near]

Just going there is dangerous. I hope you are aware that most of the people who went to the carnival ended up disappearing or turning into zombies.

Your twin worries too much about people. What do you think about that?

[mellodramatix]

You`re one to talk. Sitting here twiddling my thumbs, or falling asleep all the time, is the same as being a zombie, if you ask me. It all comes down to doing nothing.

It`s none of your business, really, but I wonder what happened to me between then and now. He is me; something affected him. Or infected him. I don`t know what it is.

You're going ahead to the Carnival?

Don't talk like you're making provisions in case of your death! Much as I'd appreciate the jacket - and I've not gotten fat - I'm not gonna' take it from my dead twin.

I can't come with you. And I'm not gonna' try and stop you either, 'cause I'd sure as hell have done the same thing by now if I didn't have- certain restrictions. Just report back on what happens with the blood trade, don't die, and if you have no say so far as dying- take a few of those assholes down with you, alright?

I'll be expecting to show you this mug of mine when you get back. I bet I'm taller than you, for one.

[mellodramatix]

I`ll try to get you a candy apple or something.

[Private to the other me // Unhackable]
Restrictions...?

It`s fine, it`s better one of us sticks around here, and you seem to fill that role better than I can, seeing how everybody trusts you. And I don`t exactly intend to get myself killed, but there was no time to make a fancy backup plan, other than leaving my stuff behind the stove.

... I`m taking Near with me, that insufferable one.

"if you have no say so far as dying- take a few of those assholes down with you, alright?"

Will do.

[m_elioracogito]

Chocolate dipped is preferred, if they've got any down there.

[ Private to the other me || Unhackable ]

Yeah. Babysitting, bodyguarding, whatever you wanna' call it.

-Look, they only trust me 'cause I'm a jerkoff detective with a gun and a few years experience keeping my temper to myself. You're me, so I figure saying this to you is just the same as knowing it myself, but- if I could afford to be as honest as you, I would be. Being a detective sounds awesome until you figure-out that it involves an awful lot more diplomacy and responsibility and an awful lot less 'working alone' than we would have preferred.

...Near. Is going outside. In a risky, possible-death situation. Seriously?

[mellodramatix]

... I know.

[Private to the other me || Unhackable]

How`s that your duty? Not that I care, but ...how? Why? You really are awfully reasonable, you know? How did you ever get things done like that? No offense. I`m wondering.

Yeah, I ... simply don`t know. He sticks like glue.
