[ EVENT ]

For the past few days, the sound of strong winds and sand hitting glass and walls have become the usual background noise. Goggles and scarves and protective gear have become necessary accessories when venturing outside.

The night before, the winds continued to pick up until, early in the morning, the power flickered and died. For the people staying behind the power comes and goes, but a lot of people won't be around to notice.

Not long after the power goes out, the sound of the sandstorm is joined by the blaring of sirens, followed by an announcement about an evacuation. All residences are directed to Shibusen where they will pass through the mirror usually used by mission goers to travel to their destination.

The shelter they find themselves in is a cylindrical room with lots of bunk beds along the wall and seats on the other side. Don't worry, there are a few of these areas connected to each other via open doorways. There's enough room for everyone! Sort of. At the very least, there's enough room for everyone to fit in there even if there aren't quite enough beds for everyone, especially since it's not only the guests who are here.

At least everyone gets a thin blanket so even if you end up on the floor it won't be too cold.

Please indicate in the header: [Character | Location (either the Shelter, or somewhere in Death City if it's during the evacuation) | Date ]

((OOC: this log will cover the IC days of July 2nd to July 3rd. Feel free to start open threads either set in the bunker or during the evacuation or both!))

There's an open flat on the third floor of Tartarus Terraces. Instead of returning to Fatality Condominiums after the storm has passed, you'll go there.

[Mello assumes L will try to locate Yagami, but he'll be working with limited resources, and if Yagami stays as isolated as has been his habit, there won't be a trail for L to pick up.

He also assumes Bakura tried to heal L and was unable to, and shakes off a feeling that this is cheating. It's simply making use of an unexpected advantage which they're not likely to have for long. The window for making Yagami safely vanish is shrinking even now.]


I'm working on a way to hack a mirror to make it seem as if its owner has vanished.

[Chocolate eyes drill into blue as the unspoken question hangs between the two men: Why would you help me? It's a fair enough thing to wonder in Light's position, surely. If their places had been reversed and he had caught Mello obviously unprepared for the storm with no one around for miles to see them...]

I had been able to get my own to appear invisible to the network for a time, but it didn't last. [he says instead of giving the question voice, pride winning out over curiosity.] I assume the administrators have dealt with people doing it in the past and look for it now.

[Mello makes a noncommittal noise. Even if they have done, he has more faith in Matt's hacking skills than to assume it's impossible without an attempt.

He doesn't need to be a genius to know Yagami's wondering why the hell he'd offer help. The answer's as complicated as the dilemma Mello's faced with. L has been showing so little concern for his own life lately, and such an alarming tendency to pursue courses of action that are inexplicable, that for once in his life, Mello has forced himself to do the calculating, practical thing, and put some distance between them for his own protection, and Near's.

Emotional protection, too. L's given him ample evidence he won't accept help, but Mello will be damned if he'll watch the trainwreck from up close. And as much as he despises Yagami, helping him may be the only way left to help L. It's far more roundabout and chancy than he's used to or likes, but he doesn't see many other options. Not when L has become so erratic that Mello can't even hazard a guess at predicting him anymore. Forcibly breaking the destructive cycle with Yagami may be the only chance they have of pulling him back to reality.]


We'll see.

If you agree to us keeping an eye on you--not for long, say five days--that'll be more than enough time to come up with a more permanent solution.
