[Family plot? An emotionally and mentally violated Mello is not amused. :Db]

Really fucking funny, Template.

Looks like Jack's gone.

Damn, and he was pretty useful, too.

[He leans forward in his chair, lowering the chocolate from his lips and resting his arms on his knees. The next few words are spoken in a quieter, more thoughtful tone, and you'll have to be listening to catch them.]

He wasn't even here two months.

This is so stupid.

Forget it, squirt. Touch my shit and you will regret it.

[Mello is a combination of irritated and sullen, this currently on repeat in his head. This had been much more tolerable, considering it didn't leave him recounting the events of January 26, 2010. He's attempted to drown out the music with his own headphones, but gives up, tossing them aside and reaching for a new bar of chocolate.]

How many days do you think this shit'll last?

[gathering what weapons he's acquired, and getting the hell ready to make a break for it]

Matt, you asshole, you better not be fucking around right now.

[Mello has donned his jacket and set up candles around the room, but doesn't seem particularly bothered by either the cold or the storm. A book he had the patience to start but not finish has been discarded in favor of projecting on the second level.]

Anybody up for a game?

[Browsing the second level, Mello has stumbled across Light. Have a momentarily not!composed Wammy kid, unintentionally broadcasting on the second level.]

[filtered from Light]

...

What the hell? Does this mean--

...What the hell is that rat bastard doing here??

[/filtered from Light]

[With L's arrival in Template, Mello's interest in the Joker case has been piqued. 10 deaths or a million dollars at stake... L is likely to get involved at this point, and with the Joker taking a step up from a couple of tasteless murders to a game of cat-and-mouse with the city's vigilantes, well.]

( [Private to self] )

Maybe things are starting to get interesting.

[Mello can be found on the street outside of the church, leaning against a building collecting his thoughts. Unaware, of course, of anyone being able to hear him on the second level.]

What is this place? It seems to be a city, that much is obvious... and could we really all be dead? Damn it, things weren't supposed to have gone that badly... even Matt...

...Halle and that big-headed twit better have caught Kira. I'll be pissed as hell if I find out he couldn't stop that pathetic excuse of a murderer even with my help.

Mello's a new muse for me, and I'm trying my damnedest to work out his voice. That said, he's a Wammy kid, so the obligatory freak-out over not being able to play him well enough or smart enough goes here.

If you have any comments or suggestions about how I'm playing Mello, please let me know! I want to make sure I'm Doing It Right™.
