Sorry to hear that, Beyond.

yes, as you should be. it is your fault.

Hey. Shut up.

excellent retort.

what's that, B? Looks to me like you said 'oh man I sure wish I could bottom for L at some point in my Las Vegas career'.

you are a very petty woman.

so's your face.

clever.

what's that? and Cube too?

petty, petty petty.

ah and you would also like to have your ass kicked by China?

sounds like you'll be busy this month, Beyond Birthday.

you wouldn't dare.

I would.

no.

ye.s

this really what you plan on doing with your rp plurks? arguing with your characters? not a very good use of your time, if you ask me.

i did not ask you.

you have other things you should be doing

I don't feel well.

then go to bed and shut up.

you're so kind.

perhaps in half an hour.

sometimes, I have to wonder about you.

I'm not sure who is the crazier one in this conversation.

Isn't it obvious?

Well, I have more direct experience with B, while my perceptions of you are all gathered secondhand.

He's killed people, I haven't.

yet.

That is in your favor.

I'm actually really sane compared to him.

That is my overall impression. There is just the occasional exception that makes me wonder.

By the way, L.

there something wrong with your bladder?

and I'm the mad one.

No, it's perfectly functional.

Are you sure?

Maybe you have something wrong with your prostate. You should get that checked out.

I volunteer for the job.

No, I'm sure that my prostate is fine.

It can't hurt to err on the side of caution.

I can likely check it myself if it comes to that.

ah, but how will you earn chips that way?

There are many other men in this city.

mmm. and how many of them will have anything to do with you?

That makes it sound like they're repulsed by me.

to most people you would be considered unattractive

That may be true.

you are also lacking in social skills.

I don't deny it.

it would not be hard to believe that other men would be repulsed by you.

There are enough men who are open to the possibility of sex with me.

that so.

I'm still alive, aren't I?

I don't think prostitutes count.

I haven't employed any of the prostitutes in the Lounge.

really.

that seems very difficult to believe, L.

Why would I lie to you about that?

I don't know.

what are their names?

There was a Kira.

Yagami Light?

No. A shinigami named Kira.

a shinigami.

Yes. There are shinigami in the city. And some people known as arrancar that seem to be their enemies.

yes, you mentioned arrancar before, I believe

It's possible. I met two during my first days in Vegas, so I've known about them for a while.

this shinigami anything like the one that killed you?

No. This shinigami was much more human.

He was also quite good at what he did.
