[A text comes over the Ruby City network, titled only with the solitary letter 'L' in the subject. It is no-nonsense, no time wasted, and not one bit curious about any of the other people in the city, or the city itself. He has a message that he would like to convey, and that is all; his words hold no confusion.]
Attention, Ruby City.
Call me L. I am a new addition to the area, nothing more. Thank you for your time.
[He pauses, and decides to add:]
But I do have some questions for our captors, if any of you would so oblige.

Third Person:
Ruby City was the last place that L had expected to show up after death. He hadn't expected anything at all, in fact; afterlives just weren't all that plausible, in his books. But since he was here now, he figured that he should try to get ay information that he could from the people who had brought him here. What he had needed to know about the city itself, he had read on the posters. He knew that the food and housing were free. He knew that there was no internet; however there was a library, and a social-network-slash-announcing-system run on the watches. He knew about the danger of awful random events, and the animals in the woods, and the catacombs. He knew that he couldn't go back to his world until his kidnappers let sent him back. He'd read all of this on the helpful flyers.
He didn't know what would happen if his kidnappers decided to send him back. He had accepted that he was stuck here, but what if he was sent back? Would he be alive, or go to his afterlife or lack thereof? There was the eighty percent possibility still that all of this was a dream, but as the seconds ticked by, that was becoming less and less likely. He hadn't even had time to ponder the injustice that the people running the place may or may not be doing to the captives here. With any luck, he would get his answers. All he had to do was keep one step ahead in his thought process, and ask and make any of the seven answer the right question. It would need to take a little time, to get an understanding of each of the personalities show to him, and thus he could ascertain which questions to ask whom.
Dealing with now, however...as for interacting with the civilians of Ruby City, it was best to simply stay back in the shadows and observe for a while. He had needed to make his presence known - perhaps one or more of the captives would contact him, and he would be able to collect more tidbits of information for this investigation. He was going to keep texting only, and if seen in the open he would simply refer to himself by one of his many aliases - likely something not including the L sound, which left Hideki Ryuuga and Deneuve. Though, the former was Japanese, which L was not, and the latter was French as well as one word, which sounded out of the ordinary and also which L could not quite pretend to be. Picking too generic or famous an alias would also be too suspicious, not to mention predictable, so he would have to be completely random.
He would be known, face-to-face, as Nathan Rivers.
