The Unpopcorning of Light Yagami. Open RP

[darkwithoutme.livejournal.com]

Awareness was the first thing to come to Light, but it might as well not have because the only thing that came forth was nothingness. Am I dead?, crosses the mind briefly before descending back to nothing. It feels cramped in this space, but also as if it goes on forever. That doesn't make sense, but it is all there is to feel. Memories float back lazily like clouds, but of where Light Yagami is currently or what he did just before escapes him. The last thing he remembers is finding out that Yotsuba has been proffiting off of Kira's power. Then, hearing comes back with the sound of a great

POP!

Suddenly there is floor under him, and butter all over him. Light lifts his head and sight returns just before the smell and taste of butter overpowers everything momentarily. Once he get's over the fact that there is butter everywhere, Light takes a moment to check the rest of himself over. His hair is a mess, and he is wearing a green sweater with the Slytherin insignia on it that goes well with the green socks and black shoes on his feet, although the socks are covered by tan pants. On one wrist there is a waterproof (hopefully butter proof too) watch, the other has a handcuff locked on it. Light's eyes trail down the chain of the handcuffs, only to find that Ryuzaki is nowhere to be found.

"Is this another test, Ryuzaki?" Light wonders aloud as he stands up to see if the door of this room is locked. It wouldn't surprise him if this was a test, as Ryuzaki already seems to be off his rocker about certain things, but it also would be unsurprising if this wasn't L's doing. Wouldn't he be covered in something sweeter than butter if this was L's idea? Then again if not L then...?

The door is unlocked, so Light wanders into the hallway in search of a washroom or Ryuzaki, whichever is found first. The chain drags along the floor behind him, but his buttery footprints already cover the castle floor so Light doesn't bother to pick it up as he goes in a random direction.

"Then, it shall be good practice for both of us."

A good battle is one where there is no clear victor, this match will definatly be enjoyable.

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

"I hope so." He clears his throat. "I should brace you. There are people here who will react negatively to your presence, besides myself and Matt."

[darkwithoutme.livejournal.com]

"Perhaps if we were on friendlier terms they wouldn't act so negatively?" L and Matt were not the first Light has encountered today, so he already knows about some negativity. "I do not know if we were ever friends though. You said I was your first, but I didn't believe you."

[gamerspy.livejournal.com]

... okay, objecting to that would just be childish. Really childish.

"Perhaps if you hadn't killed half of us we wouldn't be so negative," he settles for, instead.

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

"Friends or not, they do have grounds of their own," L admits, chewing on his thumb.

"You will probably be my first friend that I will remember. Do I make others?" It'd be sort of sad, if his only friend ever killed him.

[darkwithoutme.livejournal.com]

"I don't expect them to have a total turnabout in their reactions, but it would probably help," Light muses. "Misa was your second friend. She was happy that you were including her in the investigation and actually kissed you on the cheek. You said you could fall for her if she kept that up."

Light laughes at the idea. Misa was too obsessed with him to ever seriously consider L, and Ryuzaki never seemed like the romantic type to him.

[gamerspy.livejournal.com]

"Misa Amane? The second Kira?"

Of the entire investigation, Matt knows most related to Misa. He did help spy on her, after all.

He's also beginning to wonder whether Light is deliberately trying to piss him off.

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

"I do not have very good luck with my choices of acquaintances in the future." Pause. "No offence to you, Light."

But really.

"You will have to lend me some patience, but given time to absorb the idea, perhaps we will be able to know each other. I doubt I will become romantically entangled with Misa, though."

[darkwithoutme.livejournal.com]

"No offence taken. Misa didn't want to be with you romantically either, being obsessed with me. Besides, she thought you were a homosexual, because of these handcuffs," Light holds up his cuffed arm.

[gamerspy.livejournal.com]

A long silence.

"Because of the... handcuffs?"

Matt raises his eyebrows at L. Okay, so it's future-L's antics, but still.

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

L looks back. He has no idea.

"As far as I know, I have no proclivities toward bondage. Personally, I doubt I would consider such things with a suspect, much less one of your age. I think can reassure Misa that your virtue is safe with me."

[darkwithoutme.livejournal.com]

To Matt, Light replies, "She already thought that Ryuzaki was a pervert. So, having a 24/7 watch on me while being chained together must have given her ideas. It didn't help her views that Ryuzaki wouldn't let us be alone together, but she didn't understand that it was done only for the sake of the investigation."

Light stays silent after hearing L's comment.

[gamerspy.livejournal.com]

"... right," Matt says, because this is a pretty weird bunch of stuff to hear about a close friend's future self. "Why would - actually, you know what? I don't wanna know. Really."

He can't think of why anyone would think of L as a pervert.

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

"Again, I doubt my motives were sexual ones."

What with the gigantic murder investigation. He chews his thumb a little more.

[darkwithoutme.livejournal.com]

"Of course it wasn't anything sexual. Like when she thought someone pinched her butt, it was just you taking her cellphone," amoung other things that have explaination, but Misa thought differently.

[gamerspy.livejournal.com]

"Okay, Ryuuzaki's not a pervert. Awesome, glad we've got that sorted, looks like your appearance had some use after all. Now fuck off and die."

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

"Matt," says L, sounding like maybe one day he thought that he should possibly sound chastising, but mostly like he wants to laugh, (possibly it's hysteria-driven) and is trying very hard not to.

"Maybe I am not so skilled a pick pocket as we had hoped."

[darkwithoutme.livejournal.com]

"You tried to cover it up by saying you'll catch whoever did that, and it worked by making her laugh."

Matt's comment makes him look like a prick to Light, but whatever retort that could be said probably won't help Light make any friends so he just shoots Matt a dry look before looking back to Ryuuzaki.

[gamerspy.livejournal.com]

Matt couldn't care less about whether Light thinks he's a prick or not. Like hell is he going to be pleasant to him.

But he backs down anyway. They'll probably need to get a drink after this.

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

"To the left," L turns, "and just down these stairs. It is not far now."

He sounds neutral about this fact.

"She does not sound particularly... astute."

[darkwithoutme.livejournal.com]

"She cannot even see my lack of romantic interest in her," Misa is just another stupid woman after all.

It is a releif that Matt doesn't push it, because Light really doesn't want to get into an argument now.

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

"I wonder if she is at Hogwarts. The way things have been going, it is probably a matter of a few days, if that is not the case."

Woe. He doesn't want to meet her.

[darkwithoutme.livejournal.com]

Woe. Light doesn't want to meet her.

"If she is around then it's only a matter of time before she finds me. While Misa isn't particularily smart, she always gets what she wants one way or another."

[gamerspy.livejournal.com]

"She is. I met her at my Sorting." Matt shrugs. "She seemed nice enough."

To be fair, Matt has a thing for gothy blondes.

[ijk-mno.livejournal.com]

"I was probably not romantically interested in her though, do you think?"

He can't see himself chasing after anyone like that.
