[Light was a leader. If nothing else, the way he had taken over this note, the way he'd decided to clean the world despite the personal cost to himself should stand testament to that. He believed in his ideas and he was willing to put the work, the time into them to see them come to fruition; what other honor student spent so much time in cram school and such, despite being good enough without the additional help.?
Nonetheless, he also wants to keep an eye out on this man, this Mikami Teru. Already, he was at a disadvantage with this man knowing more about Light than Light did about Mikami. He'd known he held the Notebook, likely that he was Kira - for killer; couldn't they have chosen a better name? - and who knew what else? For now, Light knew a name without knowing the precise spelling. Though, he could likely guess soon enough.]
Thank you. Then, if you're ready Mikami-san. [He doesn't know his status to add the traditional suffix, so he went with the more formal, more blanket title. He would follow along, being able to watch their surroundings without taking his eyes of Mikami himself. They were going into a strange place, led by a stranger, so no precaution without good reason would seem too extreme at the moment.
If nothing else, Japan was a very crowded city. There was a safety in those numbers, even if Kira could kill in a crowd without no one knowing.]
