Then I can count on you to see it through until the end. That's a relief.
[With it decided that Light will endure whatever it is that's brought brought--apparently a double dose, no less--Ryuuzaki can turn to face the screen again.
Or so he pretends.
The patterns of deaths are not interesting even if they are identifiably the work of his obsession, Kira. That radio silence is insufferable after regular mockeries and constant developments, movement even if not forward.
All the more because it would do no good at this point to note that this unprecedented stalemate came after Light and Misa came into their custody. He's noticed that criminals with fake names continue to survive, even after he had theorized that the first and second Kira had made contact. If they had then the second Kira who had killed Ukita would surely be put to use. They would see that as proof that he had been wrong rather than proof of his still standing theory on the identity of the two Kiras.
Now L can only see the death tolls as a stamped time card rather than a mission with any delusional purpose. These people are dying to prove Kira is still active. That's all. It's not that he feels anything over their deaths, but that same tenacity doesn't extend to Kira's "mission." Not anymore. It's as if Kira has gotten lazy.
No, worse. Bored.
L doesn't enjoy that kind of one-sided sentiment at all. So he'll become bored too.
It's not his high point and L knows it, hazing the college freshman for entertainment.]
