[Yagami Light, both consciously and unconsciously, was used to being observed. A part of him had lived with Ryuk who had constantly shadowed him, had been under the watch of who knew how many people; he'd only found the cameras, after all and while he didn't know how many were on the other side, he knew this man was one. There was no way he would have let anyone else take that role, as they both knew that L's observations were higher than most.

But this Light doesn't remember, not at all. This Light, in contrast, only remembers being in a prison cell, uncomfortable as it was. He remembered that voice lying to him, making him think Kira really was framing him. By now, that stare didn't bother him. He continued to type, the keys making a rhythmic sound in the room between pauses until he finds a page worth reading.]

Investigation is largely reactive since we can hardly investigate criminals that have yet to commit a crime. We only go on the offense once an initial crime has been committed and if we're good enough, we can stop any subsequent crimes from happening. It's only when we're on the offense that a criminal gets caught. While you're hardly a criminal, I've found precaution a smart tactic.

[He finally turned, giving a tired smile.] That doesn't mean fear, Ryuuzaki.
