Re-emerging (open RP)

[righteous-pen.livejournal.com]

After the disaster in Hogsmeade and the meeting with his God, Mikami had barely left his room for over a fortnight. The house elves had agreed to bring his food there (although some of them were still unhappy with him for lasering parts of the Great Hall), and he'd taken some books from the library on his way back from Slytherin. Most of them were first-year level spell books, but there were a couple of extremely thick volumes on wizarding law. Those also made good makeshift weights. He still hadn't found a gym anywhere.

He had to keep working, keep learning. There had to be something he could do for Kira, even here, even now. Something to atone for his failure, to make things right again. He'd been letting things slide, and this was the result, but it wasn't too late. The end hadn't come yet. It had for Near, but not for Light Yagami, and God was the only one who mattered. Surely that future could be changed.

(If not, then he'd destroyed everything. He couldn't afford to let himself think of that.)

But there was a downside to constant studying. He'd run out of books a lot sooner than expected. So now, a slightly pale, withdrawn Mikami was in the library, counting the number of pages in the textbooks and occasionally weighing two against each other.

Feel free to talk to him. He needs the distraction, poor thing.

The mysterious man in a bloody trench coat enters the library quietly. Most of Walter's time at Hogwarts has been spent looking for a door or a hole that he can use to go home, but nothing has turned up. He didn't expect to find a door, but he has things to do, people to kill, and a God to rebirth back home. Being at Hogwarts feels more like an afterlife than he's ever felt since his death.

Maybe the library will have a book that can tell him how to get back to his world, but finding such a book would be a challange. Expecially when he doesn't know where to start.

His braced leg was paining him today and he'd decided to take a break from his study of hexes. Raven on his shoulder and snake around his arm, Jezz emerged from the stacks with a book discussing magical means of theft and inclined his head briefly in acknowledgment of the other person he saw there.

Wishbone was still hard at work researching Animagi, since the spell to turn animals into other animals didn't work just as planned (pun intended).

Of course, the book he's wanting to look at next is on a just too high shelf, so he's jumping up and down trying to get it.

Soichiro froze. He didn't know if Mikami remembered what happened after eating soup, but Soichiro did. And he really didn't want to explain that or get in another fight.
