I posted. I'll have Ryuk introduced later too then. Ryuk enjoys watching from a distance for a while anyways. I think he might be amused that the Death Note holder can't even read the rules of how to use it.

Takeshi Kawano

It was still dark when Takeshi woke up. His eyes blinked in confusion and his first instinct was to go back to sleep. But when he checked the time, it turned out that he was already late. He thought about skipping class again and staying in his bed, which was warmed by his own body temperature. He reached for his phone and instantly felt a chill that made him retreat back into the blankets as soon as he got it.

If it wasn't for the conversation he had with his mother last night, he would've simply slept the day away. But the hurt expression she gave him when she found out that he was ditching classes was too much, even for him. So he found himself leaving the comfort zone of his bed and bracing himself for the cold as he got ready to leave.

To be honest, he liked going to school late almost as much as not going at all. Tokyo was usually a bustling place in general, but after the school and work rush, it wasn't as bad. He hopped onto the subway and put in his ear buds that weren't connected to any music but were there to block out some of the outside noise. His school was only one stop away which made for a quick ride; the main reason he chose it.

Since he was late anyways, he stopped by a bakery on the way over to school and ordered curry puff. The cashier raised an eyebrow at him suspiciously, as if to say, "Why are you not at school yet? Are you a delinquent?" Takeshi shrugged and paid for his food. The bandages on his face definitely him look like a delinquent, which he was. People always seemed to blame it on the fact that he never had a dad or because his mom was always out working late. Stuff like that pissed him off though. He couldn't have a stupid father complex if he doesn't have a father. Or so he thinks anyway.

By the time he reached the high school, the courtyard was mostly empty. There were a few students who were running toward the building and another few who were just like him. As he was walking in the courtyard, something caught his eye. It was something black, sticking out on the white snow. He walked over to it and picked up the thin, leather bound notebook. "Death...Note..." Takeshi read out loud. His English wasn't the best but it was enough to understand what the characters meant. He was about to just drop the book right there and then. Some emo kid with tacky taste probably just dropped his notebook or something. But instead, he decided to open it and see if there was a name inside. If so, he knew who to tease about this notebook.

However, in the inside cover, there were only a set of rules of how to use the notebook or something. He couldn't quite make it all out. There was something about a Death Pen though...

He decided to stuff the notebook into his bag and deal with it later. Maybe one of his buddies would make better sense of it than he did. Actually, he was the only one of his friends who still attended school... so maybe that wasn't the best idea. There was one thing that he could do though. He needed to find whoever had the matching Pen.

This is a private RP between Tranquility and karamonnom.

This is a RP based on Death Note but in which one person wields the notebook and another wields the pen. Both are required to kill someone. The RP takes place in modern day Tokyo, Japan with our two character in their third year of high school.

Rules for the Death Note and Pen

I. The Death Note and the Death Pen are both needed to cause a person's death. The Death Note cannot be used with any other writing utensils and the Death Pen cannot be used on any other surface.

II. The human whose name is written in the Death Note with the Death pen will die.

III. Both the holder of the Death Note and the holder of the Death Pen must have a face in mind when writing a person's name to ensure that people sharing the same name will not be affected.

IV. If the cause of death is written within the next 40 seconds of writing the person's name, it will happen.

V. If the cause of death is not specified, the person will simply die of a heart attack.

VI. After writing the cause of death, details of the death should be written in the next 6 minutes and 40 seconds.

VII. The humans who become the owner of the Death Note and the Death Pen can, in exchange of half his/her remaining life, get the eyeballs of the god of death which will enable him/her to see a human's name and remaining life span when looking through them.

VIII. The conditions for death will not be realized unless it is physically possible for that human or it is reasonably assumed to be carried out by that human.

IX. The specific scope of the condition for death is not known to the gods of death, either. So, you must examine and find out.

X. One page taken from the Death Note, or even a fragment of the page, contains the full effects of the note.

XI. The Death Note will not affect those under 780 days old.

XII. The Death Pen will not show up on any other paper other than the Death Note it is linked to.

XIII. The Death Pen is indestructible and will not break.

XIV. The Death Pen contains the blood of Shinigami and does not require refilling.

(Other rules will be added once we work them out. Also it is not necessary for our characters to know all of the rules yet).

Sounds good! Can't wait. I'll work on the rules.

EDIT:

I like your opening. Can I repost it as a 0 post and add the rules from there?

D E A T H + N O T E

Oh man, that's a lot of rules. I think we can decide which one we will follow. For example, the one about using any kind of writing utensil rule would be cancelled out by the existence of our own Death Pen and etc. Maybe having a basic running list of them in the OP is a good idea just to keep track?

And yeah, let's just start at the school. I don't know if it will necessarily be in the same place. But it would at least be on the same campus.

D E A T H + N O T E

I think we could do our own Shinigamis.

D E A T H + N O T E

Posted my sheet by following yours as a template! Sounds good then. But they could split up and follow one of our characters jome

I think it would be interesting if we each had our own. So we could do both Ryuk and Rem.

I think we will work on their current relationship after we work on our characters.

Writing Death in These Pages

This sounds really interesting to me. I would love to be your partner in this if you would let me :)
