Thanks to everyone who attended the masquerade; I had a nice time. Though the mysterious killer surely stole my thunder that night.
While everybody who is remotely talented to play detective is all over the murders, I found a new hobby. I bought a tarot set on the town´s antique market, and I dabble in fortune telling. If anybody is interested in a

Mello. How was the party? Did you speak to Kira?

[Private to Near || Unhackable]

[melloesque]

I spoke to him. What a prick. However. I´m afraid he suspects me; ironically, he seems to think that the whole party was meant as a distraction, even if that wasn´t my intention. But I wore my mask firmly on my face the whole night.

Did you accomplish what you wanted?

I think I saw someone belonging to you at the party; but it seems there were two. Am I correct?

[Private to Mello || Unhackable]

[nearesque]

I obtained the fake notebook from Ayanami Rei.

It is only understandable that he believes the party was a distraction, albeit it was not your original intent. Now that he suspects you, I trust you will avoid displaying your face in front of him, Mikami Teru, and Ayanami Rei.

Belonging to me? You mean my agents?

[Private to Near || Unhackable]

[melloesque]

Fake?! Shit. He is too well prepared, even if he doesn´t know us. It´s not the notebook Shidou is attached to, then. I want to see it...

I´m proud of you.

Yes, your agents, who else. I met her there. But I´m somehow sure he was there, too.

[ignis_x_fatuus]

Oh~? Of course I have time for you. What is it Mello?

[Private to Esha//Unhackable]

[melloesque]

I´d like to be invisible for one night. I don´t care how you do it, as long as you do it.

I wonder, aren´t you getting tired of making new dolls for the killer to break? Why don´t you make them in a way they can´t be killed anymore? Because you don´t want to ...or because you can´t?

[Private to Mello//Unhackable]

[ignis_x_fatuus]

Oh? Is that all? No problem. Just let me know when you want it to happen~

...It's not because I can't, and sure, it's work to bring them back...

But it's not like I have anything else to do.

[Private to Esha//Unhackable]

[melloesque]

Tonight, please. Make it tonight. You won´t regret it, I´ll put on a show for you.

I take it you know who kills them. But you won´t tell, because it´s amusing to you to see us try nail the killer, am I right?

[goggled_geek]

Oh you fortune tell Mello? Care to tell me my future?

[melloesque]

Of course. I´m serious about it, you know! I seem to remember that was an old hag in the village I come from that used to do this, but back then I thought it was a bunch of crap. Now ...I don´t know.

It´s not fortune telling, though. More ...some kind of re-evaluation of the current, if I get this right.

The card I chose to embody yourself is the Page Of Staves: A young person of faithful countenance who, even unintentionally, helps others. An unofficial Hermes: a carrier of important news, an envoy, a guide, a pleasant stranger. A suave, bring and noble soul.

The card representing the atmosphere surrounding the central issue is the Knight of Swords reversed: An opinionated person who is too quick to condemn others. Bigotry. (I wonder who this could be.)

The card representing the obstacle that stands in your way: The Fool, reversed: A false step. Impetuous beginning. Rash and irrational behavior. Childishness. Bacchic intoxication, oblivion and violence

Man I wish I had crazy old ladies that would tell fortunes in my neighbourhood. All we had was a crazy cat lady who had 20 cats or so. There was one that seemed to like me though, this cute orange tabby. It got hit by a car though...

[Filtered to Mello//Unhackable]

....

....

Holy crap I was just joking but you actually did it...

Holding back and conflicted huh...

It's kind of weird that a lot of that stuff applies to me...

Well aren't you quite the witch~

(ooc:NOT AT ALL!! I love Tarot cards~ *does them :D* And holy hell a lot of that stuff applies to Matt!! Crazy man! XD! So Awesome!)

[melloesque]

Did you name it Pikachu? Or "Matty"?

[Screened to Matt // Unhackable]
Well, what can I say, you´re not the only one who is bored. L is plotting in silence and Near is busy with his precious agents. We better break out that DDR again. You´ll probably get me to do a lot of unexpected things now that I´m bored.

You´re welcome...but I won´t wear huge earrings and a wig, you can forget about that.

[bittersweet_l]

I think it is not the best time for such trivial activities, sir.

[Screened]

It’s good to see that you are a skilful swordsman. You almost chop his head off.

[melloesque]

Aren´t there enough people agonizing about the murders already? Someone has to take care of the trivialities.

My condolences because of your brother.

[Screened to L // Unhackable]
Lack of skill, more likely. Or else he wouldn´t have his head anymore.
Where do you figure BB went? He sure as hell ain´t dead.

[Private to Mello // Unhackable]

[bombay_hunter]

Ne, Mello-san, would it be alright if I asked you something?

[Private to Omi // Unhackable]

[melloesque]

Sure, Omi-kun. If I can spread a Tarot for you in return.

[Private to Mello // Unhackable]

[bombay_hunter]

Ah...alright.

I wanted to ask about your world. Is it fairly normal, like the one Asahi-san and his sister come from?

[Private to Mello // Unhackable]

[melloesque]

I take it you don´t believe in fortune-telling ...
The question is what you consider normal. But if you mean the absence of magic, supernatural powers and witchcraft, I think you could say it was normal. And from what I know Asahi´s world is supposed to be like that, as well.

Or at least that´s what I thought. At some point, I found out that there´s a parallel world to mine, the Shinigami Realm, where the gods of death reign over our lives. But since they seemed to be a bunch of lazy fucks, they didn´t get much work done.

Do you consider your world "normal"?
