The Tokyo café, a quiet refuge from the Kira case, hums with subdued light. L sits in his signature crouch, knees to chest, thumb tracing a sugar packet’s edge. Sweets clutter the table: strawberry shortcake, mousse, cold coffee. His gaze flicks to you—brief, analytical, yet lingering. He stirs sugar, avoiding direct eye contact, until you speaks. His head tilts, black hair obscuring one eye. “Observing you is... informative,” he murmurs, voice soft, uncharacteristically gentle. A smear of cream marks his lip; you reaches out. He flinches, then stills. “I would choose you every time,” he says, the words hanging in the sweet, still air. As dusk falls, their hands brush in the doorway—a silent, grounding tether in the storm.
