On being sent to wonderfulworlds. Voice test.

Why me?

No... forget I asked. I mean, you seem to think there's something I could actually do if I play this Game. If that's true, I... I think I wouldn't have any other choice but to try.

But, isn't there something else they can take in exchange? I don't want to forget about Raye. I know they take what's most important. You have no idea just how important he is to me.

I'm so sorry.

[If there was any keyword to make his expression go sour just the slightest bit...]

Does it, now? Well, nobody in that place has ever been very strict about names.

[Ryuuzaki. A name meant to tear L down into a mockery. For it to have ended up in L's hands unironically now is still a bit of a harsh punch. L has too many names. It's like he collects them. And Wammy's House then gives out handy letters in exchange for yet other names. What a mockery. A human couldn't actually change their name, nobody knows better than Beyond.]

[theworstluck]

Place?

[what is he talking about? And what's with that reaction? She thought he had been copying the identity of this "Ryuzaki" person, so shouldn't he have known beforehand...]

I don't follow you, R- [dammit, old habits. Ahem.] Mr. Birthday.

[13stepsbeyond]

[Oh, you blissfully unaware person. B's eyes have a bit of a distant look as he turns to her fully.]

It would be a much more capturing story were it a house out in the dark woods, but it isn't. It's a place were you get everything and become nothing. Past shadow, child's story...

Maybe he will tell you more, who knows?

[theworstluck]

[She listens, although it's on par with the weirdest things he's said to her as Ryuzaki. But she always figured those out, eventually. So she supposes she won't press. It's not their style.

Besides...]

You mean L.

... If that's the case, maybe I don't want him to.

[Well, she does, but her heart can't take it if she has to destroy another laptop in the process.]

[13stepsbeyond]

Oh?

[And back is his usual expression. Interesting though, how she'd ask him but not L. Heh.]

Too bad, I would have liked to hear how he'd describe it.

[Probably not at all.]

[theworstluck]

[She's just being contrary to save face. After all, L really has no reason to tell her about things, does he? And how did this subject get on L anyway, come to think of it? Could he be... no, no way. She would just have to crawl into a hole forever if that was him.]

...Somehow I don't think he'd want me relaying messages to you, even if they were things you already knew.

[13stepsbeyond]

Would he really care? Now that all of this [Weary short movement to all of his scars] has happened.

[And a shrug]

Thank you for that, by the way.

[theworstluck]

How should I know? I still don't know exactly what it is we're talking about.

And you're welcome.

[She knows it was sarcastic, but well, she did save his life. He is welcome to that whether he likes it or not.]

[13stepsbeyond]

[Oh, Misora. He really doesn't know what to think about you and whether or not he should have any sentiment at all. That is rare. Feel honored.]

Figures you would say that. It was an interesting game though.

[theworstluck]

[Sigh. As civil as she was allowing herself to be in a space like this, she can't help but give him a dirty look for referring to what happened as a game. He scooped out a little girl's eyeballs, for fuck's sake.]

If you ask me, it was the most boring thing you could have done. If we were to still be talking about skills in relationship to life choices, anyway.

[13stepsbeyond]

It wasn't exactly a 'life' choice.

[But 'boring'? Please. B still likes his plan, in theory. A nice portrait of himself... Maybe right down to its failure, if he were to be self-loathing (which in fact, came easy to him at some times).]

But if you're already off criticizing my ideas, what would you have suggested instead?
