*Light cautiously knocked on the doors of L's office, seemingly having been standing there for a couple minutes.* "Okay I know this looks bad but I did not mean to listen in I swear-"

*He didn't mean to be here... at all, actually. He was just looking for L to ask for clarification on something, but he could hear from outside the door he was conversing with someone and decided to wait.*

*It wasn't like he meant to overhear the conversation- but it sounded interesting. L asking his sister for advice? Relationship advice no less?*

"I didn't uh...mean to overhear but..was that about what I said earlier? Calling you my friend?"

- @ask-kirasuspect

“..I see you don’t care much for manners, Yagami.i thought you were raised better than that, but you must have been overcome by curiosity, no?

Yes, it is. It may seem dramatic to you, but I have myself to lack more experience in the social aspect than I had previously thought: I.. have missed out on so much and yet, all I can do is sit back and work, because that’s the only thing I’m good at.

The way I came to this conclusion was you. The fact that view me as a friend took me by surprise, truly, it’s difficult for me to understand your perspective; after everything I have done to you, how is it that you view me in a benevolent light?

This is one of the very few times I am genuinely confused by your actions and reasoning, I cannot fathom how you can give that title to me when I have been making your life harder — do not misunderstand, I do not feel remorse for my methodology, I am saying that I do not comprehend your logic in this moment.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Why wouldn't I see you in a benevolent light? You have the same objective and wants that I do. You want Kira to be caught, and so do I. I don't blame you for thinking of me as Kira."

"Sure, my life's been harder since you came around, but it's also become a whole lot more interesting. My days used to be boring and mundane, but now it's so much more interesting."

"If I was in your shoes, I would be doing the same thing. I'm not upset or anything, a bit irritated sure- But I genuinely enjoy your company, L."

[informl-onthings]

“..hm. I suppose that is a way of seeing it, we do have a common goal and I have established that I would do anything in power to reach it.. it’s less about that, though.

If you really insist that you have no malice towards me and genuinely see me as a companion, I won’t pry.

However, I must advise you that I have no idea how this friendship thing works, so do not be afraid to tell me if I am crossing a line, when it’s unrelated to the case of course; I will attempt to rectify my mistake.

This is very new to me, because in actuality, you are my first friend. And I guess you are mine too, if you’re all right with me calling you that; sometimes, I miss playing tennis with you.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"To be completely honest? You're my first genuine friend as well. I have people who think of me as their friend, sure, but I've never gotten along with other people long enough to truly call them friends."

"But I really don't have any malicious means towards you, I genuinely want to be your friend. Maybe sometime this week we can do another tennis match? It's been a while since someone matched me at tennis in terms of skill."

[informl-onthings]

“That would be nice, the case doesn’t seem to be going anywhere so we may have some time, Watari owns a piece of land not far from here that he’s turned into a tennis court for me.

It was meant for me as thanks for solving an important case, but I was too young to have it signed under my name at the time; as such, it was passed over to Watari, it’s quite nice there.

Perhaps we can go on the weekend, they host big tournaments, if you’re up for that; the tournaments really start Sunday, so if you’re looking for a friendly match we can go on Saturday or during the week.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Sure! I'm free this Saturday, so that'll be fun! Mind you, besides the match you and I had, I'm still a bit rusty. I haven't played since middle school after all."

"Maybe after the match we could have a picnic somewhere. I've actually never done a picnic, and I doubt you have either? If so, it'll be another first we can find out about together."

how are you gonna deal with Light now since he's amnesiac and everything?

“I suppose I’ll have to take a lighter approach to interrogations, considering he has large gaps in his memory, but that will slow things down; I’m obviously sorry for Yagami, but there could have been worse timing…” “As nothing major came up, we went out to eat at a dessert café, everything was very tasty; I think Light enjoyed it too, then we went back to headquarters where nothing had changed. Static. It’s making me lose motivation — at least spending the day with Light was nice, he’s great to talk to.” -L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Yeah, it was nice speaking with you too L. It's nice to speak with someone that's of a similar level to me for once."

"Plus, the sweets were pretty good too! I still have some of the cake we ordered, if you wanna have some while we chat?"

[informl-onthings]

"Of course, i wouldn't pass an opportunity for cake, you know that. It's nice to go out once in a while, especially with someone that you can have good conversation with." "I am quite the messy eater though, I apologize for that. It's hard to hold things normally, I don't care enough to figure out why that is; still, I had fun today." -L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"I had fun too! Perhaps we should do this more often, once the Kira case is done and my names been cleared." *Light went to the bag from the dessert café, pulling out the cake. It was strawberry and chocolate.*

"Plus, it's nice to see you go out, L. I get that you can't often for safety issues, but it's still good that you can sometimes."

[informl-onthings]

“Yes, I mostly do that for cases that require my presence in some capacity, otherwise Watari acts as medium between me and the governments or bureaus concerned.”

*L had his fixed on the desert as it was placed near him, sneakily taking a strawberry from it with two of his slim fingers; he swallowed it as if it was a nibble and not the whole fruit…*

“Whether your name is cleared or not depends on you — well, mostly me, but you play a part in it; at the moment, I remain convinced that you are our killer, Kira.”

*The detective licked off the remainder of the pink frosting as he spoke, resuming eye contact with the other party. Although he had to soften the way he interacted with the brunette, he could poke him to action one way or another, and perhaps reawaken his bloodlust with his provocations.*

“Not out of a personal dislike towards your person, you simply fit the criminal profile we concocted to perfection.”

*The raven haired man explained as he grabbed two slices for himself of the two flowers, eating from one or the other periodically, he seemed entirely focused on the food before him.*

“This doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy cake.” -L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"It's not like I can blame you- well, I could, but I'm not going to. I do fit the profile, annoyingly enough..." *Light spoke, taking his slice from it, eating small bits of it.*

*Despite losing his memory, he did know of the investigation and what had happened due to it.*

"But you're right, just because you think I'm Kira doesn't mean our friendship has to change." *Light cautiously said, with a small nervous smile.*

[informl-onthings]

"I..I'm your friend?"

*The paler male stammered incredule, with a few crumbs on the side of his mouth. Though he had a friend, upon confirmation, for a cold detective such as he to have those kinds of intimate relations was, to him, still an unbelievable concept; he had consistently troubled the brunette with his fixation, and yet he was called a friend.*

"..Your injury must be worse than I thought." -L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Hmm? My injury doesn't have anything to do with this, L-" *Light said with a clearly confused face, raising a brow as he looked at L.*

*Light couldn't see why L didn't know they were friends. They shared a ton of interest, detective work being just one of them, had similar intelligence- Why wouldn't they be friends?*

"We've been spending weeks together, why wouldn't we be friends?"

[informl-onthings]

*Light was objectively right about that, they saw each other everyday and were seen as friends, of some sort, yet the pale man hadn't realized that himself; likely because being friends with a supposed serial killer that you're meant to catch as a detective, isn't the most ideal friendship out there.*

*Even so, L had no problems expressing comfortability in the other man's presence, which could make others believe that he was the one who was aware of their friendship.*

…sorry, I'm being nonsensical again don't listen to me."

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Oh, uh... Alright?" *Light gave L a confused glance, taking another bite of their cake. In his current mindspace, he couldn't quite understand why L didn't see them as friends.*

Ello Mr man

Names Lemon but you can call me Lemon

I harbor no harm but I do alchemy from time to time

I suppose you would call it chemistry in this day and age

-lemon

"Nice to meet you, Lemon!"

[ask-kirasuspect]

Throws a handful of oats at him

"...Thank you? I...guess..."

[ask-kirasuspect]

What is your opinion on books?;

"I enjoy reading quite a bit, it's a nice way to pass the time!"

[informl-onthings]

What happened to you and Light after the whole...falling incident?? How do you feel?

“I brought him to Watari as we had discussed (with an enormous amount of will and patience..) and we confirmed that Light had a serious concussion due to his clowning. As for how I feel.. I am still convinced that all his prior antics were to steer me away from his character, but that backfired more than Loght himself could have anticipated. He is experiencing amnesia because of the graveness of his injury, which I can only hope to be temporary; the news has been delivered to Soichiro, who is understandably devastated.” -L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"I still don't understand how you're still suspicious of me..." *Light muttered, rubbing the back of his head that still ached incredibly from the fall.*

*Light seemed mostly fine, with a few minor scrapes and bruises from falling. The only big issue was the amnesia. It seemed mostly normal, he remembered everyone-...sort of.*

"And insulting me too? I shouldn't be surprised..."

[informl-onthings]

"I'm a bit shocked you're on here as well, L. I wouldn't think you were a social media person, after all, the hiding your identity and everything. Truly shocking to find you on here of all places."

- @ask-kirasuspect (ACK is this any good for him?? his personality is so hard to get right when writing him - misa)

“I was surprised at my decision as well, but I can’t bring myself to actively inform myself of things happening outside this case; as such, I’m using the internet as my helper.

And most of them know me as L anyway, giving myself a pseudonym would be useless, there are high chances they know your name, too. Be careful, who knows when chief Soichiro might come on here too; but that’s unlikely.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"I suppose that's a smart idea. Using what you have to gather more information on the outside world is a good idea. And I doubt my father would ever come online, he sees it as useless and just a way for information stealers to well...steal your information."

[informl-onthings]

“A valid opinion, if you are not careful enough, then there’s no telling whether it could happen to you or an acquaintance; however, if you are clever with how you navigate, there should be no problems.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Hah, I've tried to explain that to him more times than I can count. In fact the only reason I'm allowed to have my own social media is because he knows I'm smart enough to keep track of all my information and not be stupid with it."

[informl-onthings]

“Older people are quite difficult to persuade, their stubbornness is impressive..

I would be very worried if the top student of Japan could not do that much; you should tell your sister the dangers of not doing so, if you haven’t already, the web is getting popular with the kids, I think?”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Ah, yeah, I've already told Sayu the whole spiel. Most of her internet activity is monitored anyway by me and my mom, to make sure she doesn't do anything bad or accidentally share things she shouldn't. Thank you for looking out for her, even though you've never met her.

[informl-onthings]

“That’s good, she shouldn’t be left to her own devices until she is of reasonable age. I must confess that I do have a soft spot for children, and that even if I have not met her, her safety is imperative, like that of any other child.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Of course, every child deserves someone there to watch and take care of them. Although I am a bit shocked you have a soft spot for children, you don't seem to have a soft spot for many people in general."

[informl-onthings]

“You’re right, there’s hardly anyone or anything I’m not indifferent to, but children deserve safe spaces and to be surrounded by trustworthy people; I was raised in an orphanage, after all, it’s only natural that kids are one of my main concerns to create a safer world.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Hmm, a fine wish, I hope one day you can succeed in your wish to create a safer world. After all, that would mean you catch Kira and sentence them to their deaths, which would already create a much safer world."

[informl-onthings]

“With that statement, there’s now a twenty percent chance that you are Kira. Kira would support my view in order to avoid suspicion instead of opposing it with their own views out of fear that I might suspect them.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Mm, personally I disagree. Kira is a very violent person, true, but they also seem to believe that their actions are bringing peace and safety to the world. Why wouldn't they want a safe space for children in their safe world? I think they have the same idea as you, in that respect anyways."

[informl-onthings]

“Make that thirty percent.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"It's a bit sad that we can't even have a normal conversation without you suspecting me more of being Kira..."

[informl-onthings]

“But you are a suspect, Light. If you wish to have a “normal” conversation between us, I have some leftover cake, Watari bought too much — care to join me?”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"That sounds nice. Though I'm shocked Watari bought too much, he seems like a very calculated man, like the type who buys the same amount every time."

[informl-onthings]

“I ask him to do a lot of things, it’s no surprise he can miscalculate sometimes, even a genius inventor like him can make small mistakes; I was feeling hungrier than usual, but I’m not as famished now — do you want the slice of cake or not? It’s going to get soggy..”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Sure, why not? I have no reason to say no- so long as you promise you won't change your mind because of the things I say? Unless I outright say "I'm Kira", hah."

[informl-onthings]

“Of course not, cake is for eating not debating. I’ll avoid speaking about it since we’re eating together, you shouldn’t bring it up either; to be honest, I’m too confused about other matters to think of that at the moment.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Oh? May I ask what matters are confusing you? You have me curious now, about what the 'great L' worries about. Perhaps I can help you solve it?"

[informl-onthings]

“Ah no it’s nothing. My brain wanders sometimes, like everyone else’s, surprisingly; some small things here and there, nothing to worry about. Sorry for getting your hopes up…”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"...Are you sure? If you need help deciding something I can do my best to help, truly- Even if it's as something as 'simple' as deciding what to do today I can help."

[informl-onthings]

“..if I decline you’ll just ask again, won’t you? All right — would you mind sitting in the office with me..? It’s getting lonely and I’m feeling quite cold for some reason, maybe the AC’a broken, would you know how to fix it?”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Oh! Yeah, I actually got really good at building and taking things apart. And fixing them, of course. I used to take things apart and put them back together for fun, like pens during class and building sets my dad bought me. I can give the AC a look, I fixed our old one a couple years back so I think I can."

[informl-onthings]

“Thank you very much, you had an interesting hobby..”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Yeah... Anyways, where's the ac? And..I just realized I didn't answer the other part of your question, but I can definitely stay in the office once I'm done checking it, I don't mind."

[informl-onthings]

“In the main office on the ceiling. If it falls on me while you’re fixing it I’ll consider it an attempt at my life, okay?”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"That makes sense, but I think if I was going to try and kill you, an AC wouldn't be my first idea of a weapon... Do you guys have a ladder or something? I'll see what I can do, and if it's broken or not."

[informl-onthings]

“Hm, what would be your preferred weapon ? I’m genuinely curious. You should ask Watari, he should point you to it, though I’m eighty percent sure it’s sturdy enough to hold your weight.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Alright, I'll be back." *Light leaves and comes back dragging a ladder and a tool box.* "Uhh...To answer your question, it depends I suppose. If its quick and easy, than a gun, obviously. For something a bit

*Light climbs up the ladder, and starts fiddling with the AC, too focused to notice how the ladder creaks under his weight precariously.*

[informl-onthings]

“Light — please get down from there, it’s creaking awfully loud; let Watari handle it..”

*He looked up nervously, holding his knees as Yagami worked on the machine; he had a bad feeling about it from the start, but he did not want to seem too distrustful of his colleague.*

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Hmm? No I can see the problem, the ductwork is damaged. It's causing the room to be extremely cold due to it-" *The ladder creaks under the added weight and- CREAAK! breaks.*

*Light yelps as his footing is suddenly gone, and drops to the floor. He groans, rubbing the back of his head.* "...The ductwork is damaged. It's gonna have to be replaced." *Light finishes his sentence as he struggles to stand up.*

[informl-onthings]

*L had noticed the fragility of the latter and had advised the younger man to leave it as it was, but his warning was ignored, multiple times. Even so, the impact of the brunette falling on the floor was very startling; he held his knees close to him with a blank expression.*

"Oh yes, you've fixed it, fantastic job really."

*The paler man's tone hinted at a greater annoyance that was, strangely, controlled in volume. For such a bright student to not see, or rather not bother to care about the obvious state of his support because of overwhelming proudness was... disappointing.*

"Idiot. I'm not helping you up, I've told you more than once to watch out, but why would you listen to me? I'm just the smartest person in the world, no one worth listening to."

*L's discontent became clearer with those words, and despite claiming that he would have not aided the brunette, thin, pale fingers wrapped around one of his arms and yanked him upright.*

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Shut up." *Light spat, obviously embarrassed from his fall. To be fair, he wasn't exactly ignoring L...just distracted.*

"Oh yes, the smartest person in the world yet asks someone else to fix the AC." *Light shot back, still a bit frazzled from the sudden fall. To be fair, he wouldn't have fallen if he was paying attention but he was more focused on trying to fix the AC... which, he couldn't even do without the right parts.*

*Light had most definitely hit his head from how his eyes were unfocused, and swaying slightly. He probably had a concussion from hitting his head. Wonderful.*

[informl-onthings]

"I'm a detective Light, not an HVAC technitian. Even I can tell you wouldn't have fixed it either way, because you're missing the right tools... was the air conditiong all that you were thinking about?"

*L shot a suspicious look to his roommate, such clumsiness, even to that level, could have been passable - had the klutz in question not have been someone as, or nearly, brilliant as him; warning signs were blaring in the detective's ears, now he had something to fixate on.*

*A seemingly insignifant mistake created a gaping hole in Light Yagami's personality sweater; no, it made a whole new pattern, or it could have been an ordinary hole. Light — Kira’s actions were meticulously thought out and yet, with the present episode, he was meant to believe that there could be moments of chance within his reasoning.*

*It could have been staged beforehand, modified to suit the detective’s requests, Kira was no stranger to last minute arrangements, it was so elaborate, and it was made to look so simple, a slip of the mind; a hair of inattentiveness, to show more of his normal, harmless persona to his watcher.*

*Light seemed genuinely hurt, he had given himself a concussion no doubt, which could signify that the side effects of this gimmick were not entirely taken into account; an error within an error, slip up after slip up.*

*Empty, black eyes had been staring at the injured fellow during the construction of a hypothesis; they had flickered from his innocent expression to the arm that he had pulled prior; perhaps it was nothing, and the raven haired man was tying a noose to his own neck, but it was a possible explanation. He would have to put a pin and then, he couldn’t have Light perceive that his credibility was being heavily put into question.*

“You gave yourself a concussion, go see Watari. This is not a request or a suggestion, it is an order, you are hurt and in need of aid."

[ask-kirasuspect]

"..No way-" *Light muttered, eyes squeezing shut as he tried to dull the buzzing in his head momentarily, or the ringing in his ears that was too loud for him to think.* "I can b-barely stand up, how the hell do you expect me to go find Watari?"

*His words did have some conviction, considering his entire body was swaying despite hie best attempts to stay still, and the fact that a concussed person could usually barely see straight.*

*Plus, the new irritability fit the injury as well. Was this genuinely just a mistake, or was it a thought out plan like L believed it to be? Who knows, certainly not the detective, nor the man who looks about ready to fall over.*

[informl-onthings]

*Seeing the man stumble lessened L’s conviction of it being staged by four percent. Someone who had suffered a head injury (or any kind of injury, for that matter) was not going to feel or be peachy; a toddler could know that, though the pain was undoubtably real, and Light’s denial for outside assistance was quite in character for him.*

“Stop whining, I’ll take you."

*He replied with an unimpressed sigh, although his mental state had shook away those previous doubts that momentarily exposed him to a few minutes of vulnerability, it was not for the better; Kira had been a lasting fixation for the detective, and though he felt annoyed at the current scenario, the notion that he could have been playing with the serial killer, thrilled him a little, and he would not dare to admit it.*

*Planned or not, L had partially regained his working spirit, with his brain up and running. As he analyzed his own words, he gave away the implication that the office would be left unattended; the both of them would leave in search for the butler, but it was foolish not to consider that Light may have other means to access it without his physical presence; Misa, for example, the girl had been put to cleaning duty recently, which meant she could have memorized every nook and cranny by herself, with the instructions of Light.*

*Everything in there was (mostly) information that they had learned together, it could be tampered with, for a new trail to pop up when the two of them were absent would publicly announce Light’s innocence, or at least serve as a backing argument for it. If the detective called an officer to guard the place in their absence, the brunette would catch onto his distrust and double his defenses; whichever way he went, L kept meeting dead ends.*

*Such a thoughtless occurrence could burn Kira’s criminal profile or — no, he was getting ahead of himself, he needed to over the events with a clear head, stay calm, disorder is what he wants, he’d faced worse.*

*Offering to help him was not at all unusual, but it might have hidden ulterior motives; if he were Kira, he would want to get as close as possible to his most dangerous pursuer, in a manner which would appear entirely natural.*

“His office isn’t that far."

*There was no other way but to wait, he needed nonverbal that Kira knew what he was doing, and wasn’t a disoriented person who refused help only out of a deep pride.*

“Can you walk, Yagami?”

[ask-kirasuspect]

"'M not whining." *Light snapped back, hid mind spinning as he almost lost his balance trying to take a step back. His head hurt like hell- and he was exhausted all of sudden. When did he get so tired...?*

*Light knew he has a concussion, at the very least he knew it subconsciously, so he did his best to stay awake but his injury was actively working against him.*

*He went to speak again, before his legs gave out from under him, giving out a groan as he hit the floor again, barely catching himself from falling all the way, his hands the only thing keeping him from face planting.*

"...I'm gonna take a gamble and say no, genius." *Light muttered, panting as he tried to gain some semblance of control over his body once again.*

[informl-onthings]

*As much as he was isolated in his thoughts, Light falling twice while attempting to maintain a confident attitude could have made him laugh, if he wasn’t as stoic as a statue; he could make of him for that later, they needed to get to Watari before it could get worse.*

“You are being a brat.”

*L had said in his usual voice, which carried the undertones of a passive aggressive insult, although unintentional, it fit the level of annoyance that the detective was experiencing; even though he was the one needing comfort initially, it wound up being the other way around.*

*His suppositions had not been proven or otherwise disproven, in truth, L was a little confused; for Kira to not foresee minor damages was comprehensible, but for him to do something that was an unnecessarily high risk, and let himself be seen as weak, as human, was undeniably confusing.*

*Furthermore, if he was to follow the narrative that Kira had done this in order to get closer to him, it wouldn’t have held up; L had continuously told him not to temper with the air conditioning because of the poor support from the ladder; he couldn’t have expected sympathy from the detective either, L was one of the most apathetic individuals alive.*

*Begrudgingly, he walked over to the fallen brunette and lifted him up by his waist, setting his injured body on his shoulder with an overly annoyed huff; unsurprisingly, Light was worriedly light for his age, it was not uncommon for young Japanese people to be underweight, L supposed he was too.*

[ask-kirasuspect]

"I...am not a..brat.." *Light mumbled, his voice quickly losing his fight as the exhaustion hit him.*

*He grumbled incoherently as L suddenly hoisted him up onto his shoulder, groaning as he weakly hit his fist against L's back, his legs kicking.*

"Let me down..." *Light muttered, all the blood going to his head causing the ringing in his ears to get much worse. He kept mumbling incoherently, barely fighting against L but still trying.*

"L-Leave me alone, d-dammit..." *Light spat, wiggling and moving in L's grasp. He wasn't used to being picked up, despite the fact he didn't really weigh much, since he was on a diet and other things.*

[informl-onthings]

"I'm a bit shocked you're on here as well, L. I wouldn't think you were a social media person, after all, the hiding your identity and everything. Truly shocking to find you on here of all places."

- @ask-kirasuspect (ACK is this any good for him?? his personality is so hard to get right when writing him - misa)

“I was surprised at my decision as well, but I can’t bring myself to actively inform myself of things happening outside this case; as such, I’m using the internet as my helper.

And most of them know me as L anyway, giving myself a pseudonym would be useless, there are high chances they know your name, too. Be careful, who knows when chief Soichiro might come on here too; but that’s unlikely.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"I suppose that's a smart idea. Using what you have to gather more information on the outside world is a good idea. And I doubt my father would ever come online, he sees it as useless and just a way for information stealers to well...steal your information."

[informl-onthings]

“A valid opinion, if you are not careful enough, then there’s no telling whether it could happen to you or an acquaintance; however, if you are clever with how you navigate, there should be no problems.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Hah, I've tried to explain that to him more times than I can count. In fact the only reason I'm allowed to have my own social media is because he knows I'm smart enough to keep track of all my information and not be stupid with it."

[informl-onthings]

“Older people are quite difficult to persuade, their stubbornness is impressive..

I would be very worried if the top student of Japan could not do that much; you should tell your sister the dangers of not doing so, if you haven’t already, the web is getting popular with the kids, I think?”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Ah, yeah, I've already told Sayu the whole spiel. Most of her internet activity is monitored anyway by me and my mom, to make sure she doesn't do anything bad or accidentally share things she shouldn't. Thank you for looking out for her, even though you've never met her.

[informl-onthings]

“That’s good, she shouldn’t be left to her own devices until she is of reasonable age. I must confess that I do have a soft spot for children, and that even if I have not met her, her safety is imperative, like that of any other child.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Of course, every child deserves someone there to watch and take care of them. Although I am a bit shocked you have a soft spot for children, you don't seem to have a soft spot for many people in general."

[informl-onthings]

“You’re right, there’s hardly anyone or anything I’m not indifferent to, but children deserve safe spaces and to be surrounded by trustworthy people; I was raised in an orphanage, after all, it’s only natural that kids are one of my main concerns to create a safer world.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Hmm, a fine wish, I hope one day you can succeed in your wish to create a safer world. After all, that would mean you catch Kira and sentence them to their deaths, which would already create a much safer world."

[informl-onthings]

“With that statement, there’s now a twenty percent chance that you are Kira. Kira would support my view in order to avoid suspicion instead of opposing it with their own views out of fear that I might suspect them.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Mm, personally I disagree. Kira is a very violent person, true, but they also seem to believe that their actions are bringing peace and safety to the world. Why wouldn't they want a safe space for children in their safe world? I think they have the same idea as you, in that respect anyways."

[informl-onthings]

“Make that thirty percent.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"It's a bit sad that we can't even have a normal conversation without you suspecting me more of being Kira..."

[informl-onthings]

“But you are a suspect, Light. If you wish to have a “normal” conversation between us, I have some leftover cake, Watari bought too much — care to join me?”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"That sounds nice. Though I'm shocked Watari bought too much, he seems like a very calculated man, like the type who buys the same amount every time."

[informl-onthings]

“I ask him to do a lot of things, it’s no surprise he can miscalculate sometimes, even a genius inventor like him can make small mistakes; I was feeling hungrier than usual, but I’m not as famished now — do you want the slice of cake or not? It’s going to get soggy..”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Sure, why not? I have no reason to say no- so long as you promise you won't change your mind because of the things I say? Unless I outright say "I'm Kira", hah."

[informl-onthings]

“Of course not, cake is for eating not debating. I’ll avoid speaking about it since we’re eating together, you shouldn’t bring it up either; to be honest, I’m too confused about other matters to think of that at the moment.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Oh? May I ask what matters are confusing you? You have me curious now, about what the 'great L' worries about. Perhaps I can help you solve it?"

"Mm, personally I disagree. Kira is a very violent person, true, but they also seem to believe that their actions are bringing peace and safety to the world. Why wouldn't they want a safe space for children in their safe world? I think they have the same idea as you, in that respect anyways."

[informl-onthings]

“Make that thirty percent.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"It's a bit sad that we can't even have a normal conversation without you suspecting me more of being Kira..."

[informl-onthings]

“But you are a suspect, Light. If you wish to have a “normal” conversation between us, I have some leftover cake, Watari bought too much — care to join me?”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"That sounds nice. Though I'm shocked Watari bought too much, he seems like a very calculated man, like the type who buys the same amount every time."

[informl-onthings]

“I ask him to do a lot of things, it’s no surprise he can miscalculate sometimes, even a genius inventor like him can make small mistakes; I was feeling hungrier than usual, but I’m not as famished now — do you want the slice of cake or not? It’s going to get soggy..”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Sure, why not? I have no reason to say no- so long as you promise you won't change your mind because of the things I say? Unless I outright say "I'm Kira", hah."

[informl-onthings]

“Of course not, cake is for eating not debating. I’ll avoid speaking about it since we’re eating together, you shouldn’t bring it up either; to be honest, I’m too confused about other matters to think of that at the moment.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Oh? May I ask what matters are confusing you? You have me curious now, about what the 'great L' worries about. Perhaps I can help you solve it?"

[informl-onthings]

“Ah no it’s nothing. My brain wanders sometimes, like everyone else’s, surprisingly; some small things here and there, nothing to worry about. Sorry for getting your hopes up…”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"...Are you sure? If you need help deciding something I can do my best to help, truly- Even if it's as something as 'simple' as deciding what to do today I can help."

[informl-onthings]

“..if I decline you’ll just ask again, won’t you? All right — would you mind sitting in the office with me..? It’s getting lonely and I’m feeling quite cold for some reason, maybe the AC’a broken, would you know how to fix it?”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Oh! Yeah, I actually got really good at building and taking things apart. And fixing them, of course. I used to take things apart and put them back together for fun, like pens during class and building sets my dad bought me. I can give the AC a look, I fixed our old one a couple years back so I think I can."

[informl-onthings]

“Thank you very much, you had an interesting hobby..”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Yeah... Anyways, where's the ac? And..I just realized I didn't answer the other part of your question, but I can definitely stay in the office once I'm done checking it, I don't mind."

[informl-onthings]

“In the main office on the ceiling. If it falls on me while you’re fixing it I’ll consider it an attempt at my life, okay?”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"That makes sense, but I think if I was going to try and kill you, an AC wouldn't be my first idea of a weapon... Do you guys have a ladder or something? I'll see what I can do, and if it's broken or not."

[informl-onthings]

“Hm, what would be your preferred weapon ? I’m genuinely curious. You should ask Watari, he should point you to it, though I’m eighty percent sure it’s sturdy enough to hold your weight.”

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Alright, I'll be back." *Light leaves and comes back dragging a ladder and a tool box.* "Uhh...To answer your question, it depends I suppose. If its quick and easy, than a gun, obviously. For something a bit

*Light climbs up the ladder, and starts fiddling with the AC, too focused to notice how the ladder creaks under his weight precariously.*

[informl-onthings]

“Light — please get down from there, it’s creaking awfully loud; let Watari handle it..”

*He looked up nervously, holding his knees as Yagami worked on the machine; he had a bad feeling about it from the start, but he did not want to seem too distrustful of his colleague.*

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Hmm? No I can see the problem, the ductwork is damaged. It's causing the room to be extremely cold due to it-" *The ladder creaks under the added weight and- CREAAK! breaks.*

*Light yelps as his footing is suddenly gone, and drops to the floor. He groans, rubbing the back of his head.* "...The ductwork is damaged. It's gonna have to be replaced." *Light finishes his sentence as he struggles to stand up.*

[informl-onthings]

*L had noticed the fragility of the latter and had advised the younger man to leave it as it was, but his warning was ignored, multiple times. Even so, the impact of the brunette falling on the floor was very startling; he held his knees close to him with a blank expression.*

"Oh yes, you've fixed it, fantastic job really."

*The paler man's tone hinted at a greater annoyance that was, strangely, controlled in volume. For such a bright student to not see, or rather not bother to care about the obvious state of his support because of overwhelming proudness was... disappointing.*

"Idiot. I'm not helping you up, I've told you more than once to watch out, but why would you listen to me? I'm just the smartest person in the world, no one worth listening to."

*L's discontent became clearer with those words, and despite claiming that he would have not aided the brunette, thin, pale fingers wrapped around one of his arms and yanked him upright.*

-L.

[ask-kirasuspect]

"Shut up." *Light spat, obviously embarrassed from his fall. To be fair, he wasn't exactly ignoring L...just distracted.*

"Oh yes, the smartest person in the world yet asks someone else to fix the AC." *Light shot back, still a bit frazzled from the sudden fall. To be fair, he wouldn't have fallen if he was paying attention but he was more focused on trying to fix the AC... which, he couldn't even do without the right parts.*

*Light had most definitely hit his head from how his eyes were unfocused, and swaying slightly. He probably had a concussion from hitting his head. Wonderful.*

[informl-onthings]

"I'm a detective Light, not an HVAC technitian. Even I can tell you wouldn't have fixed it either way, because you're missing the right tools... was the air conditiong all that you were thinking about?"

*L shot a suspicious look to his roommate, such clumsiness, even to that level, could have been passable - had the klutz in question not have been someone as, or nearly, brilliant as him; warning signs were blaring in the detective's ears, now he had something to fixate on.*

*A seemingly insignifant mistake created a gaping hole in Light Yagami's personality sweater; no, it made a whole new pattern, or it could have been an ordinary hole. Light — Kira’s actions were meticulously thought out and yet, with the present episode, he was meant to believe that there could be moments of chance within his reasoning.*

*It could have been staged beforehand, modified to suit the detective’s requests, Kira was no stranger to last minute arrangements, it was so elaborate, and it was made to look so simple, a slip of the mind; a hair of inattentiveness, to show more of his normal, harmless persona to his watcher.*

*Light seemed genuinely hurt, he had given himself a concussion no doubt, which could signify that the side effects of this gimmick were not entirely taken into account; an error within an error, slip up after slip up.*

*Empty, black eyes had been staring at the injured fellow during the construction of a hypothesis; they had flickered from his innocent expression to the arm that he had pulled prior; perhaps it was nothing, and the raven haired man was tying a noose to his own neck, but it was a possible explanation. He would have to put a pin and then, he couldn’t have Light perceive that his credibility was being heavily put into question.*

“You gave yourself a concussion, go see Watari. This is not a request or a suggestion, it is an order, you are hurt and in need of aid."

[ask-kirasuspect]

"..No way-" *Light muttered, eyes squeezing shut as he tried to dull the buzzing in his head momentarily, or the ringing in his ears that was too loud for him to think.* "I can b-barely stand up, how the hell do you expect me to go find Watari?"

*His words did have some conviction, considering his entire body was swaying despite hie best attempts to stay still, and the fact that a concussed person could usually barely see straight.*

*Plus, the new irritability fit the injury as well. Was this genuinely just a mistake, or was it a thought out plan like L believed it to be? Who knows, certainly not the detective, nor the man who looks about ready to fall over.*
