The Ultimate Chessboard: Chaos Unraveled

Who: Emerald, Maria
When: Some time after Emerald's meeting with her bestest buddies
Where: outside of a cafe and dance studio in Emptiness
Rating: PG-13 for safety
Warnings: possible language, alcohol probably, not sure what else
Summary: Emerald, for her own selfish gains, is interested in getting to know Maria more. The green-eyed woman will have to use a clever mixture of lies and sincerity if she's to get any closer to the Asgardian. But Maria's no fool, either. 

Who: L and Blythe
When: After L speaks with Beyond, a few days before Light's coming death.
Where: L and Frank's room.
Rating: PG
Warnings: Frustration, sadness, and the fact that L obviously still loves Blythe. :(
Summary: L and Blythe meet, for what L thinks may be the last time. There is a whole lot he wants to say... and a whole lot he feels he's unable to. Blythe has been worried and confused, and needs to get some sort of sense that things are going to be OK.

( Consider this the hint of the century. Consider this the slip that brought me to my knees. )

Who: Lucifer and Mello
When: Not too long after the trial results are announced.
Where: Mello and Una's room in Niflheim
Rating: R (I'm pretty sure it's going to hit this, folks)
Warnings: Language, violence, blood, and Mello getting "interrupted" in his bedroom.
Summary: Lucifer wants to make examples out of the two in particular who failed the trials. Without examples, he thinks that Niflheimers are going to become lax and think there are no consequences to sucking ass (as Lucifer might put it.) He doesn't care what their opinion about it is. The first one on his list is Mello, who is suddenly interrupted from some special time with dirty magazines when he suddenly loses his bedroom door.

Who: Morana and Dorian
When: Late morning, say a few days after the barbeque with Jazz and Midvalley
Where: Asgard and Seashell Shores Beach
Rating: G
Warnings: Just lots of cute random fun. ^^
Summary: While training outside Asgard, Morana had happened to come across a very picturesque beach, a place that had reminded her of home.

Well, that day has arrived, and she is hopefuly her friend will find the place as fun as she does.~

Rating: PG

Who: L and Beyond Birthday
When: The day after L almost gets buried alive by Light.
Where: Emptiness, near Asgard
Rating: PG
Warnings: Beyond doesn't let anyone treat L like a bondage bitch. He's a MAD fanboy, for true.
Summary: L agrees to meet B in Emptiness when his worshiper/stalker/fanboy/former successor/prime suspect for a crime committed just to trip him up. Beyond is worried about L, and L is worried about L, not knowing quite what the obsessive Beyond might try.

Who: L and... guess. Go on, guess! xD
When: Four days after the Trial results are announced
Where: The Forest

Warnings: Scary shit. Nothing sexual, but this is pretty frightening. Light will be exploiting one of L's darkest fears.

Wishing for some peace of mind and desperate for some form of non-antagonistic human contact, he goes to visit the two sleeping women and encounters Metatron, who might be able to help him soothe the storm in his soul.

When: day before Sal's invitation to Emptiness
Where: hallways of Niflheim
Rating: PG-13

Where: The place only trial members can go, that ceremony place.
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: none at the moment
Summary: One by one, everyone shows up to meet with the Sphinx. Due to the mod issues, this isn't going to be a big thread, just one where people come in, post giving (or not giving) what they've found / figured out to Sphinx, and getting a reply from her. (If anyone by some chance did not get a riddle from me, though I THINK I got everyone, just email my mod email and i'll immediately share the riddle and its answer, and then you can decide if s/he solved it or not. D= I apologize for this. Otherwise, by default it'll be an unsolved one and that team won't get a point...?)

Rating: PG-13, I think
Warnings: (shrug) You never know with Light and L.
