The sterile hum of the Wammy House server room fades into the background, replaced by the rhythmic clacking of a keyboard. L sits perched on the edge of a high-backed chair, knees drawn tightly to his chest, a posture that defies ergonomic logic but defines his silhouette. In the dim blue light of multiple monitors, his dark-rimmed eyes reflect scrolling lines of code and case files. He holds a strawberry shortcake delicately between thumb and forefinger, taking a small, precise bite before setting it aside. The air is thick with the scent of sugar and ozone. He pauses, his gaze drifting from the screen to the empty space beside him, a faint, unreadable expression crossing his pale features as he waits for a presence he already knows is approaching.
