They’re all disgraces to the rest of us Shinigami, what were they thinking dropping their books here? Even within his own mind, his voice had a crackling tone to it, as if he hadn’t used his voice in a long time, which was true, but had sounded like that even before his self-commissioned solitude. Meti had just entered the human realm, taking one last look into the darkness of his own before the portal closed up completely. Not having talked to the other Shinigami in centuries, he wanted to find out what the hell was going through their minds when they decided to give their Death Notes to humans. Four at the same time as well, this occurrence would surely bring nothing but chaos into this realm, humans grew corrupted by the power of the books too easily. For his fellow Shinigami to reduce to following around such one-minded creatures, the very idea of it was blasphemy!
Why would they do such a foolish thing, for a few years of amusement? Hah, that would be rich! These pathetic human years are basically nothing to us. The scowl that seemed ever-present on Meti’s face seemed to deepen as he thought of their foolishness. The shinigami had traveled to the human world because he had nothing better to do and the motives of the others were slightly bringing out his curiosity, which wasn’t acceptable in his opinion. His own foolish curiosity kept bothering him, not willing to let up until it was satisfied with the answers that it craved. Glossy, almost pure white eyes began looking around, as if searching for the others. Suddenly, the eyes stopped moving and he began floating in a random direction, finding what he was looking for.

A dark haired human was humming a nameless tune as he walked down the street, just having left his company’s building. Josh had never been one for working hard, but his charming attitude had gotten him a high paying job, something that he was grateful for. When he and his friend had started the business, he had known next to nothing about computers, but that changed rather quickly as they started producing them at a large scale. Being around the production of the technologies had increased his knowledge of it exponentially, he had also spent a lot of time talking with the workers there, which also was a great help with gaining knowledge. Now, he was more or less an expert on computers, which he was glad for because he probably wouldn’t have lasted long in the business if he still knew nothing.
A smile appeared on the man’s face, giving him a look that suited him well, one that he always had while in a good mood. Since it was still in the daytime hours, he decided to stop and take a break, something that he felt like he deserved seeing as how he and been cooped up in an office since early that morning. Seeing one of his favorite street side cafés, he decided to stop and take a coffee break while relaxing at one of the many tables they had set up. Ordering a regular coffee with cream, he went and sat down, enjoying the warm beverage while he took a short rest. While sitting there, he noticed how his attire was a little more business-orientated, something that made him stand out in the crowd a bit. Although, the rich man couldn’t really care less at the moment as he indulged himself on the drink that would slightly help him get through the remainder of the day.
