Lost and Confused Teenaged Genius Seeks Talented Male Detective. Must Like Sweets.

[pleads_innocent]

Light had been wandering the halls for a while. Ever since he had woken up he had been disoriented and confused. At one moment he had been sleeping next to L and the next he had woken up on the floor-fully dressed. At first he had thought the detective had knocked him off of the bed-that was until he realized that this place is in no way where he

*Mel's on her way to the kitchen to snag a few bars of chocolate, and stops when she sees Light. She folds her arms across her chest and eyes him with suspicion that's just looking for an excuse to turn into loathing.*

Yagami.

[pleads_innocent]

Yagami?

And who was this? Light was certain that he hadn't seen this blond woman before; was it possible that she was someone sent here by L? She had to be, right? After all, why else would she be here? Light cocked an eyebrow and observed her facial features before locking his eyes with hers.

“Do we know each other?”

[chilichoc]

Nope.

*He's just established for her that they don't, along with narrowing down somewhat when he might come from, unless he's from one of those weird-ass worlds where he's nice.*

I know versions of you, but not you.

[pleads_innocent]

“Versions?” The word awkwardly slipped from his lips. What exactly did that mean? There were no other versions.

“Right.” Light continued only after a brief pause and glanced around to see if there was a camera hidden somewhere before turning back to the blond. “Where's Ryuzaki?”

[logical_red]

[Walking right out of the kitchen just down the hall from their bedroom, Matt's eyes widen a bit when he spots a Light... talking to himself?

Huh. Not a rare occurrence when dealing with folks new to the batshit mansion. He waves, a bit meekly, with his free hand; he's busy holding a mug of steamy hot chocolate in the other.]

Uh, hey. New?

[[ooc: hiiiiiiiiiiiii, Seiiiiiiiiii. XD No goggles, barefoot, blah blah. you know Red's usual deal.]]

[pleads_innocent]

New? What exactly did that mean? Well, he certainly was new to the area; Light nodded. He was still confused. What was this place? Who was this redhead? Was this his home? There were so many questions going through his mind.

“Where am I?” He decided to start with that; after all this person-who ever he was-some how just didn't seem like someone that was employed by L, though Light could be wrong, so perhaps there was something else going on here.

((OOC: Hiiiiiii :D ))

[logical_red]

[Matt nods once, smiling faintly in amusement. Yep. New.]

This is the interdimensional crazy place. It tries to kill us everyday, but we somehow just keep coming back to life.

[pleads_innocent]

The look on Light's face said it all. He didn't even have to speak; but just in case this person's mental faculties were lacking-and considering what Light just heard it was entirely possible-Light spoke.

“... What?”

[dreamsofgenesis]

LIIIIIIIGHT!

[A rather hyper Misa comes flying - although not literally - over to glomp him.]

[pleads_innocent]

Light greeted Misa with his typical business-like demeanor. But it was certainly pleasant to see a familiar face. Something seemed off about her though, what was it? Well, never mind, it was probably just Light's imagination, right?

“Misa.” he was glomped but was rather unphased-he'd gotten used to it by now, “Have you seen Ryuzaki?”

The first thought was probably to ask Misa where they were but that was actually a bit laughable. Misa probably didn't know much about what was going on-and if she did, she would blurt it out anyway-so it was probably more prudent to find someone a bit more capable.

[dreamsofgenesis]

Yes, I have~. What do you want him for?

[pleads_innocent]

Light cocked an eyebrow at the girl. Out of all the clueless things she's ever said that had to be in running for the top position. But why did she seem so uninterested or undisturbed by their surroundings?

“I'd like to find out what's going on.” He eyed her curiously. “I woke up in the middle of a hallway; I think he owes me some sort of explanation.”

[spazzykira]

Light, you're here!! *Have another Misa!glomp, Light.*

[pleads_innocent]

Oof! Light grunted a bit from the force of Misa's glomp, it was bothersome when she took him by surprise; but he had gotten used to her attacking affections.

“Misa,” He started in his typical distracted-more-by-the-situation-at-hand voice, “Have you seen Ryuzaki anywhere?”

Light glanced around, half hoping to see another familiar face. He figured if he didn't this must be another one of L's twisted Kira tests. Light didn't want to have to relive the trauma of his father 'shooting' him again.

[spazzykira]

*Misa still holds on to him, although she loosens her hold slightly- she's learned by now that he needs to breathe. She then thinks about his question- she wants to be as helpful to him as possible!*

Ryuzaki? Yeah- I've seen several of him... and then some other people named Matt and Mello, if that means anything to you, and... and... ooh, I saw Mr. Matsuda too! And um... yeah, I think that's mostly it~

*What? Think of maybe explaining that statement to him? Misa? No, not at all~*

[pleads_innocent]

Matt and Mello meant nothing to him; he was, however, glad to see that Misa and Matsuda were here. But that didn't at all explain what was going on here. And what did she mean when she said-

“Several?” Light gave her a quizzical look.

[The alias catches his attention from afar, having chosen to settle himself in the kitchen and enjoy several miniature mocha cheesecakes. After this hectic week, he certainly deserved some form of treat. A broad smear of white is quickly located and sucked between his teeth to remove as he rises from the usual position. The man doesn't need to venture a distance. Upon immediately peeking out of the door, the owner of the voice is standing directly before him: Light Yagami. Though, judging by the shape of his leg, not the same one who has taken to seemingly stalk him.

Owlish coals stare into those sepia hues and he, decidedly, wants cake more than to play audience to another self-righteous monologue. And so, there he goes, door shutting with a click as he retreats to the table and his marvelous dessert (and dinner). Judging by the initial calling, he will soon have a tea guest, but at least he can focus primarily on the glory of these Mansion sweets.]

[pleads_innocent]

Ah. There he was, at last.

Light didn't really expect much of-if L would give any-answers, yet he watched the figure carefully. When the detective finally slid back into the room Light's eyelid twitched in disdain. Why did he expect some form of greeting or any reply at all?

Light followed, eventually, and stepped through the door to join L at the table. The room seemed clean-almost certifiably so-it was quite fitting with L's personality, attention to detail, and cleanliness. Light took a seat and stared at the detective. Was L going to say anything?

[l_shrugged]

[L ignores the door's swing open and close, uncertain which greeting to expect considering the circumstances. The Light he consistently bumps into is quite the character; fairly similar to his long deceased Light Yagami, save for the exponentially larger ego and attitude. He has also met one who seems relatively harmless... and a father, yes. Is it odd that he experienced greater discomfort around the sweet Light than the highly Kira-oriented one whom apparently slept with his alter? Probably, yes.

An index dips into the cheesecake before he draws it back to lick over. Mmm, mocha~ The other settles upon the adjacent seat. L neglects to fill the empty air for more than several minutes, sloppy sounds of licking and sucking filling the silence. Then:]

Light-kun, there are fruits on the uppermost shelf, if memory serves.

[pleads_innocent]

…

Was that all that L had to say? He brought Light to this place, for who knows what reason, and left him alone sleeping in a hallway and he wasn't going to say a thing about it? Light's lips did a half snarl-just enough to make it clear that Light was irritated-before turning to a frown.

“What was the meaning of this?”
