Drabble on L and random insanity

Cautiousness is a trait of L. It shows in everything he does. From something as major as investigating cases to the trivial consuming of cake.
L takes on anything and everything with an analytical and over alert mind. To quote "paranoid", he treats every object like a delicate glass sculpture or a bomb, picking them up warily with his thumb and forefinger and dangling them in the air, peering intently at them with large unblinking eyes.
He hunches and hurdles close to his legs, protecting his front like any self-respecting sane animal would. The instinct of a wild animal and a mind almost god-like. A mere human cannot compare, yet he is a mere human, struggling to live in this world like other fellow humans does. His cautiousness is his way of survival and he aims to be a victor.
Cautiousness has been ingrained in him. It is his nature and it would not go away even when he claimed Raito as his friend. His heart had truly wanted to be friends but it is also his heart that pokes him to stay on his toes around Raito.

L daintily picked up a piece of chocolate, stared at the patterned lines on it and moved it towards his lips. He popped the confectionary into his mouth and chewed it thoughtfully. Then, in true L fashion, he clamped another between pads of the thumb and forefinger and offered it to Raito with a casualness lacing with anticipation. After all, any interaction with the Todai top student is not to be treated lightly.
"Would you like to have one?"
Light regarded the confectionary with distrust, hesitating in his answer.
"It's not poisoned, nor does it have any medicine injected into it." L jabbed.
Raito winced. "No…of course it does not. It's just that I have a toothache from eating the confectionaries you forced down my throat the other day so it is best that I do not eat something this sweet."
The pair of large eyes widened if it was possible. It would not do for a Kira suspect to DIE in the hands of a detective. It SIMPLY would not do! What impact would it have on his psyche to have the murder of a murderer on his hands before the case was solved. He would go INSANE! Therefore it was for the good of his psychology when he stood up to give his following opinion and issued orders.
"Oh my, this is terrible! You must see a dentist at once or else the pain might spread to your head, halting your brain processes and causing a full shut-down of your body.
Quick, Watari! Get a surgeon to operate and remove all of Raito's teeth or he will DIE!" L rambled on…
On the other hand, L was not just cautious. He was lost somewhere on the deep end of paranoia and bordering on insanity. People say it comes with being a genius. At least that was what Raito thought as he was pulled kicking and screaming to the dentist surgeon.
Meanwhile, a chained-to-Raito L was plugging his poor ears as he trudged besides Raito, not knowing whether to grin or sulk. On the bright side, he finally found out that Raito fears the dentist thus he scored one point over Raito. Yet he wanders if it was worth the lost of his hearing in the process.

Authors note: I started off serious, attempting to do a characterization on L but somehow it became this way…sorry for the OOCness…(sweatdrop)
