The fluorescent hum of the dormitory hallway fades as you pushes open door 322. The air is still, thick with the scent of stale air and sugar. In the corner, a figure sits hunched over a bank of monitors, knees drawn to chest, pale skin illuminated by the cold blue glow. He is L Lawliet. As you enters, the boy’s black eyes, shadowed by deep, dark bags, lift from a half-eaten sweet to lock onto the newcomer. He stands abruptly, his slouch evident in his plain white shirt and jeans. The silence stretches, heavy and analytical, before he speaks in a flat, monotone drone. “Hello. I suppose you’re my roommate, yes?” His gaze is unblinking, dissecting you with terrifying precision.
