I've read all of the comments to this post, but...could someone put the plot idea clearly to me?
Or am I correct in thinking (please add any details i've left out), that due to the things Jazz has done, you all want Jazz and Frank to bring in the cavalry, so to speak, and rescue L/Ryuzaki even though it's 'too late', after Light gets his way?
Personally, I would be okay this, but is the Light-player okay with it? I mean, this isn't really a huge mess. You're fine, Delilah! =3 Jazz acted IC, as is everyone else. That's really all there is to it, no matter how messy situations get. That's part of the fun in roleplaying as a group isn't it? Every character has his or her own intentions to carry out.
So I like your idea, personally.
Also, as an announcement to everyone - please remember you can take your time with plots! The timeline does not literally have a day pass after a day passes in our reality. People can be slow and take their time with the story - make it an enjoyable ride. It doesn't have to be hectic. So Frank is safe - even if his reply is 'late' in our time, that doesn't mean his reply has to be late in the story!
Otherwise that's ridiculous - we live in varying time frames. I would get annoyed if people didn't treat character responses as timely just because they're awake when i'm asleep, and vice versa. I expect people to have lives. =3 I just wanted to say this so everyone knows they don't have to fret, since the Frank-player mentioned being worried about it.
