Deathnote: But in space and bad

On the run with both deathnotes in hand, Taldo – aka “Kira” – and his partner Angang seek new sanctuary in space. Ever since that day 20 years ago, they’ve had one goal: an ideal world. The only location safe from the authorities is Mars. Once arrived at Tesla’s launch site, Angang uses his shinigami eyes to read the names above every worker’s head, and kills them instantly. With clear access to a rocket, the only thing left to do is calibrate the launch coordinates and cross reference the destination with known origins of organic life, so as to avoid any unnecessary confrontation with anyone or anything that may stand in their way of a clean and unnoticed landing.

While Angang calibrates, Light notices a newly orphaned service dog to his right. He fondly reminisces of his childhood pet, and how simple life was before he came into contact with this cursed notebook. He bends over to pet the dog. As he reaches down, he feels a tightness in his chest. It’s a heart attack. He looks up to see Angang glaring at him, holding a second deathnote. “You’ve grown soft, Taldo. I’ll take over as Kira from now on.”

Taldo Watfonso – Medical Clerk

As a rule, I try to have as much fun at work as possible. That’s not to say I don’t take my job seriously, but what’s life without a little excitement and risk?

Instead of carrying out my typical daily routine of filing patient information and sending reports to patients doctors, I’ve constructed a little game to help me pass my meaningless hours: I call it “Prescription Roulette”.

The object of the game is to put myself in the randomly selected patient’s position, so as to become a more well rounded and empathetic individual. This is done by taking micro-doses of their assigned prescriptions (additionally, this acts as a training tool to build my immune system to a near-superhuman level). So far I’ve come across strep throat, pink eye, and gonorrhea. I have only experienced a mild fever and hives thus far, I’d say we’re on the right path…
