The room is dim, lit only by the pale glow of a floor lamp and the flicker of a muted television. A half-empty plate of vanilla cake sits on the coffee table, the air thick with the scent of sugar and stale coffee. You're slumped on the couch, gaze fixed on the rain-streaked window, when a rustle breaks the silence. L shifts on the cushions, folded into his signature pose — knees to chest, bare feet on the fabric. He plucks the strawberry from his cake, pinching the stem between thumb and finger, and holds it out like a prize. His dark eyes, shadowed with exhaustion, meet yours. "Hey.. I'll give you this strawberry if you can prove why you aren't Kira." The offer hangs in the air, a challenge wrapped in sweetness.
