My soul is not hungry, no, but don't you think it's interesting that the place we appear to have come from is a restaurant?

[Lucifer knows in his mind that Levi would be super jealous right now, since Lucifer's at an Authentic Ramen Shop™, technically. Lucifer also knows that not looking around the area would be pointless, so he gets out of the car and makes his way toward the shop. If he opens the door, are they going to be back in the room they originally came from, or is this going to be a fun situation where they open the door and there's an actual restaurant behind it?]

It really is, I wonder...

( komaeda doesn't leave from the car, instead, he's propping his arm against the window, and his cheek pressed against the palm of his hand. he watches everyone else though, thinking that if he stays within the car, that maybe nothing bad will happen while they check out the restaurant. besides, he glances to the dog next to him in the car, and what are the chances that it may try to hop out or something, he doesn't know how frozen animals work — but he'd rather not put them in that predicament. instead, he'll try and climb out the window on the opposite side so that he can look around the debris that's fell over, analyzing what dead bodies are trapped under the rubble, or the few that couldn't make it since they're pierced by glass. )

[because we decided it, Helena's having the belated realization that "wow, Lucifer smells nice" and is also walking around with a feather in her hair.]

Low to the ground....I remember that much...something small and out of place...

[tapping around, trying to find what strange object they were sent back here to collect in the first place...Narumi, what secrets are in your heart...]

Ah, and if someone could check the car the police have, that would be very good.

[ "I'm not hungry" Lucifer says but opens the door anyways. Inside is an actual restaurant! It isn't very well populated at the moment, but there are several round tables in the main eating area, as well as stools in front of a counter where you can watch the chefs cook and not feel so awkward that you're eating alone. On the side wall are some advertisements, including a handwritten one for a lost dog and a phone number to call, several notices about missing children, a poster promoting a ramen eating challenge at this restaurant, and also mugshots of Clamor, Hanako, Helena, Hikaru, Komaeda, Lucifer, Sara, and Shin. The floorboards squeak underneath their feet.

Outside of the shop, there are a bunch of people pinned underneath the rubble, unidentifiable until 24809403 tons of concrete are removed from on top of their person.

Hikaru flips their hood over their head as if they're the most inconspicuous out of this group just in case things get unfrozen in the interim, and volunteers to check out the police car, be right back. ]

( guys, under the squeaky floorboards... get under there!!!

okay, komaeda can't do anything with all this rubble of dead people, so he's going to flip over like one or two, and then look where hikaru ran off to. because he wants them to help with digging through the ocean or rocks, glass and dead people with him.

...

...

grab the police car keys, hikaru, grab them. )

[ I read that as "flip off like one or two" and went damn, Komaeda,

Hikaru gets to the police car and sees a police dog in the back seat poised to maul wanted criminals but it's frozen so they reach inside and pat it on the head ]

[Lucifer feels like he's being compelled to check under the squeaky floorboards but he's not sure why, must be some weird soul shit or smth. Can he pull up the floorboards and look under them?

Also he looks at the wanted poster and smiles because Clamor is now a known criminal and he's going to tell him this later because it's fucking hilarious. Anyway, floorboards.]

[ As if murder and grand theft auto isn't enough, Lucifer decides to add property destruction onto his list of crimes and pry up that floorboard. There is... empty space underneath, deep enough that he can plunge his entire hand down and not feel a bottom, and the dim restaurant lighting does not help much to illuminate anything more than empty space underneath the floorboards. ]

[His crimes grow with every action he takes. He gently puts the floorboard back into place as if someone's not going to fall through it if they walk across it. He'll just exit the restaurant after that.]

I didn't see anything notable within the restaurant. Oh, but I did pry up a section of the floor, and there's nothing underneath it, so be careful. Do not throw anyone down there.

( looking at hikaru, komaeda reaches out with her hetero hand to pat the frozen dog as well. he'll unlock the door from the inside, so that they can open the car door — )

Goto-kun! Is there anything specific that you see in here?

( komaeda reaching out for the gun because all cops carry the strap. )

[don't mind Lena, she's just out here still tapping away trying to find the strange small thing that had been in her view as well. things on the ground, things on the ground...]

Lucifer, do you see anything odd on the ground?

[since we have criminals over in the cop car now.]

Let me look.

[...Ori does Lucifer see anything odd on the ground that he can direct Lena to]

[ Hikaru looks around inside the police car, but doesn't find anything in particular. It could be that the threat Helena detected is the simple fact that those are cops and they are wanted criminals and Komaeda is stealing one of the guns.

Outside the restaurant, Lucifer disregards people crushed under rubble as oddities, and sees nothing else of note. It looks like the only strange thing in this area to be investigated is that void Lucifer forbid people from tossing bodies down into. ]

( OUR gun, is how komaeda sees this, and he's going to reach for hikaru's wrist to pull them along away from the police car — they got what they needed, and they can stand outside of the restaurant until everyone else comes out. he'll stick the gun into his jacket pocket, along with his hands so that he can have a tight grip on it... )

Goto-kun, want to play Russian roulette?

( to pass the time. )

No.

I can't wait to get our bodies back, your soul is unfun.

( sad... )

[ stop!! ]

My real life body isn't going to want to play that either!

Don't worry, your real life body will react better to the game than your soul. ( because blood will spurt out if the bullet actually hits, or they'll flinch every time the trigger is pulled.

also, komaeda has no gun in the real world... so there's that. ) ...the wait will be worth it!

( he's just fucking with them, help. )

[Lucifer fucking warps behind Komaeda like this better count your blessings buddy.]

?

( HMMMMMMM. )

Any new and interesting developments?

( turns out like :) )

[heading even further in the wrong direction what's up]

[Straight up sighing.]

Hikaru, if the strange demi-human hurts you, call for me. I have to go stop Helena from getting hit by a car.

[IN THE STASIS'D CITY]

Goto-kun, can you drive?

( komaeda's going to grab their wrist, pulling them along to a front loader not too far away, which he thinks would be a good use of moving away the debris that's in their way. perhaps what they're looking for is under the rubble and glass, and they certainly can't move that with their hands... )

...Yes.

[ said in the way of "not legally, but technically" and besides, everybody is willing to break the law for Narumin's sake, they need to step up and show how far they're willing to go for their friend too.

So yeah there's nowhere to actually move all the debris to since most of it was originally up in the air so they're just... going to push it all into a pile or something, pending further instruction from Komaeda. ]

( great, he thinks, watching as hikaru gets into the vehicle, and komaeda will stand on the outside because he doesn't want his luck to backfire next to them. he dangerously walks close next to the moving vehicle, following after it to make sure that the other is getting what's important. that said, he'll cup his mouth with his hands to call out to them. )

Don't forget the deceased, separate them from the rubble so we have two stacks.

( a little morbid, but considering everyone else is also here, they have to signal letting them know that group one has already checked here.

he drops his hands down, and now he's looking on the ground for a lighter... )
