001 [Action]
[Over a month has passed since Light has been trapped in Mallow Hallow. It's an unsettling degree of time for anyone who has been forcibly wrested away from their worlds by a megalomaniacal self-important Queen, but for a fledgling god who had been on course to purge the world of human rot, this is particularly devastating.
Light Yagami's extended absence from home means that Kira's punishment of criminals will have also come to an abrupt halt. While this remains, at best, circumstantial evidence to suggest that Kira's identity is that of one missing college student, there's no getting around the fact that L will have taken note of that pesky little coincidence.
And how much will his percentage have jumped up this time? Three percent? Ten percent? Fifty?
Only barely is he able to keep himself from scowling openly at the thought of Ryuuga/Ryuuzaki/L —whatever stupid alias the damn bastard wants to go by— leering at him from his own head.
No matter, Light has always been a suspect in the Kira case. As long as the task force can't get a hold of the death note, they won't have anyway of proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that he is Kira back home. And this, he knows, will prove to be impossible for them as he currently has both death notes, his and Misa's, in his possession.
So he'll probably have to adjust his plans. When he breaks out of this damn hellhole and returns home, he won't be able to resume the killings right away, but that's okay. This was never about winning the world overnight. it was always going to be a gradual conversion process, with or without L's interference. Light can still win this should he return home. This isn't an unsalvageable catastrophe.
Tucking his hands into his pockets, Light leaves his temporary home in Orlea to take a long walk to clear his head. There's no such thing as a fool-proof cage, but if on the off chance that there is one, Light refuses to acknowledge that Queenie could ever be its designer.]
((OOC: While this starts out in Orlea, Light will be walking all over Mallow Hallow, so feel free to bump into him wherever, just specify the location in your header.))

[Orlea]
When he passes Light, he's more than ready with a nod and a (fake but convincing) smile]
Good afternoon. How are you today?
Sorry this is late, feel free to ignore
There was once a time and place when Light had no time for pointless conversation: when the use of his time had to be divided judiciously between college coursework, orchestrating the death of criminals across the globe and "helping" the very investigation meant to lead to his own imprisonment. He had been able to juggle those tasks perfectly at home, but now that he's been robbed of all three of those stressful tasks that once structured his daily routine, he's ironically become more agitated. Despite this tension, not a single trace of it shows. He returns Kristoph's pleasantry and smile with his own. It's every bit as disingenuous.]
I'm well, thank you.
[He nods, polite and well-mannered, if a little distant.]
I hope the same is true of you?
no problem!
[Kristoph seems warm, but not too warm. He's had time to perfect the perfect balance of seeming feeling. Usually he brings his dog with him, to further the appearance and get others to warm to him, but at the moment, he's alone.
It is necessary for him to seem to be as pleasant as possible. It had helped him both as a lawyer and as a murderer. Not that he's a common criminal. Of course not. He only does what he has to do, to preserve order and beauty. That's something so few people are able to understand.]
Might I ask if you're a native or another recent transplant? [There's something about this young man and his manner that makes him ask. He doesn't quite seem native, though there's nothing in particular about him that stands out as foreign.]
