[Video] In a bit of a Jam - May 12

[darkestshadeofyou]

[Beyond has had to restrain himself all the way to his assigned home. It was so hard not to go and follow that white haired moron who just couldn't bloody give him what he wanted. He's sure that L is here now, if not it's that dumb, useless Naomi Misora. Either way, he had an image to hold up and had decided this was the best way to do things. He looks quite like L, only the smallest, most subtle differences that would require the screen to be closer to see or him in front to relay other than some of the mannerisms that he wasn't able to study in full.

He's laying on his bed, arms outstretched in front of him, on his side with a bit of his cheek hidden in the pillow even if both wide eyes are staring into your soul the screen.]

Hello.
As it seems there is a man who both has my name and possibly the answers to who I am. After being toyed with jerked about even by one of your residents I had just met I profess a lesser tolerance for it at this time. He thought it hilarious, I'm sure, to pretend to give a damn and then walk off to leave me questioning both my sanity, my life as it was and just who I can trust around a strange place that I've no knowledge of, no more than a fledgling. I thought that perhaps it wouldn't make a difference if I asked everyone if they know who I am. I've no memories prior to the room and only that Ryuzaki is significant to me.

There must be one compassionate person within the lot of you, I trust that statistics hold out in there is always a chance of meeting someone who doesn't -- how does it go? -- get off on another's misery still applies here.

[He brings his thumb to his lip, eyes wide and unblinking into the mirror while he's seemingly trying to study it while it broadcasts him.]
Also, any information on how to use this system more efficiently would be greatly appreciated. I'd owe you one, in other words.

Thank you.

[Instead of turning off the system, Beyond lets it sit on his bed face down and no more than bare feet are seen walking out of one part of the room and into the next to see just what there was there.]

I didn't think you'd rememBer. Full of surprises. I'll B good for now.

What did he bring you to eat, Sir?
[Beyond's being nice enough to feed L a different meal, which is education on what he'd been told. Maybe to lord that bit over him again --maybe. More or less, he has no idea how to handle L being nice or telling the truth that he wanted to help.]

A bento.

To be honest I haven't examined the contents.

[They're sort of scattered about.]

[darkestshadeofyou]

And for the others? What did he bring them? He seems very helpful to you and your team. Say hi for me! Tell him I'm looking forward to our next meeting.

The others?

I do work with others, but he only brings me food, to my knowledge.

[L hopes that Bakura put his foot in his mouth before revealing anything about his other successors. Otherwise, he will have to cram it all the way down the teen's esophagus.]

Oh. I see, he specifically said others. He must mean your workmates. Where do you work then? I'll come help you.

[dead_black_eyes]

[Like hell.]

Maybe another time. You understand; given that the city is in rather a state of upheaval, more stringent security is necessary.

[darkestshadeofyou]

All the more reason to help, Sir. I do understand an upheaval in a way of life, better than others. Only, my security was leaving it. We've no method to do so.

Please, we're supposed to be starting a new life together, L. Your old method of thinking causes me concern. Even Kaworu said you should fight for people whom matter to you. Let me help, I'll help.

[dead_black_eyes]

[Of course Beyond would latch onto upheaval. L walked right into that one.]

Your intentions will become clear very soon. If you really feel that way, it will reveal itself.

When that happens, if our paths cross, I will not fight it, or try to keep it from being so.

You're stalling, then. If you know its inevitability, for a genius, you're not being very smart. At all.

Good day.
