Twenty-Seven Names - Thoughts

[appletite]

. . .

It's been at least a century since I thought about this.

Been . . . maybe three since the Old Man brought in Shidou and changed him.

(OoC: referring to this)

Thought about what?

[appletite]

Before I was what I am today.

[whosyourpharoah]

...You know, I can kind of relate.

Obviously I'm not a shinigami, but....there was a time when I didn't even know my own real name. Didn't know anything about myself, at all. It lasted for a long, long time before I finally unlocked my memories.

[appletite]

Oh, I don't really care in the end who I was. I just get curious every century or two. It's only natural.

About what Ryuk? Isn't Shidou the one Mello met?

[appletite]

Before I was a Shinigami. If I was anything before I was a Shinigami.

[goggles_win]

Must suck to forget, still, who you are now is pretty cool.

[appletite]

Thanks. I don't think it's a big deal, a guy just gets curious every century or two.

[legoboss_n]

I wasn't aware that Shinigamis were human beings before.

[appletite]

I'm pretty sure we all were. It's been too long so I can't remember too well if I was or not. All I know is the Old Man just picks someone by hand before they die and then . . . well, it's either that or complete annihilation.

[legoboss_n]

Were they Death Note users during their lives as humans?

[appletite]

Don't know. It's been too long since Shidou was brought up and I never really paid attention when anyone else was, anyway.
