Raito:
The Reverse
I hate L. Okay, just thought I'd get that out there before there was any confusion. I hate everything about him. The way he walks, with that stupid slouch. That, combined with his clothes makes it embarrassing to walk around with him. The sweater, the baggy jeans, shoes that he never ties, if he wears shoes at all. He never seems to brush his hair and I'm starting to doubt if he even bathes.
Then there's the way he sits. L never sits like a normal person. When he sits on one of the chairs in the hotel room he sits with his knees up to his chest, usually gripping his legs as if they'd fall of his own body if he didn't hold them on. All of this while somehow managing to balance himself on his feet. When he sits at a table or desk, even in class, he puts his knees on the edge of the table, occasionally even his feet. It's the worst manners I've ever seen in my life.
Speaking of what he does weird, the way L holds things is like nothing I've ever seen before. Everything from papers to cell phones, he holds them with nothing but his thumb and forefinger on the top corners of the object as if it is diseased. I've never seen anyone bend their arm like he does just to talk on the phone.
The thing I hate the most, though, that little quirk that pisses the hell out of me, is his eyes. He has the oddest eyes. I swear, if they were any bigger the eyeballs would pop out of their sockets. I can see so much fear in them, something no one claiming to fight for justice should have. His eyes aren't as expressive as large eyes should be. I should be able to see his soul, happiness, laughter, the things that make his heart soar. But no matter how hard I look I only ever see pain, sadness, and over all of that, what I see the most is fear. Though when he looks back at me it's different, they are full of curiosity, wonder, and analysis. It's like a child taking apart a toaster and finding all the components. But I won't let him figure me out. I've fooled him for this long.
Of course, all this won't matter tonight. Tonight my plan will be complete. Rem is going to write his name in the Death Note. Then we can write his name and be rid of him…forever.
