Chapter two! I was overloaded with ideas, so I wrote this right after I wrote the last chapter. Hope you all enjoy!

"Ryuuzaki, how many languages can you speak?" L put his blurred finger on his bottom lip, pondering.
"Why would you need like to know, Light?" English
"I was wondering if I could keep up."
"Ok then. ¿Sabe usted hablar español?"
"Ci."
"Parlez vous français?"
"Oui, monsieur."
"Wie über Deutschen?"
"Ja. Mag ich wirklich schnitzel." Light saw the dark line of L's lips lift at his statement. Light didn't seem like the kind to enjoy schnitzel.
"Voi gradiscono gli spaghetti?" Oops, now Light had done it, he'd gotten onto the food subject with L. Spaghetti was a strange thing for L to ask about though. He thought for sure that L would default to a sweet.
"Sì. Voi gradiscono tutti i dolci italiani?"
"Нет, но я любим русский шоколад" Light blinked. The hell was that? He heard a chuckle
"Så förstår du inte ryss?" Ah, Russian. That strange gargle that came out of L's mouth was Russian. Sweedish was only a little easier to follow.
"아니오, 당신은 무엇을 말했는가?＂
"我說我喜歡俄國巧克力。我也喜歡中國留連果冰淇凌"
"τα παραδοσιακά κινέζικα; Δεν σκέφτηκα ότι είχατε μελετήσει τη γλώσσα αυτή σκληρά"
"Επιδεικνύω ακριβώς" Light smiled at this. L apparently did have a sense of humor.
"Alright, I'm out of languages. Anything special you'd like to add?" Light watched as two huge black spots appeared on L's head. He was looking at him.
"I know at least twenty-three more languages, and various ways to speak in English."
Light smiled at the British accent.

"Raito-kun, why don't you ever shave?" Light looked curiously to his right, seeing the questioning blurred white figure through frosted glass.
"Well, I just don't really grow much hair. What about you?" he scrubbed shampoo into his auburn locks.
"I do not consume proper food, and therefore my body cannot waste energy on growing hair, producing oil, or creating pimples. It only uses energy on things that are vital to my survival, such a breathing." The pale man ran his blue loofa over his arms, scrubbing just a bit too hard.
"….So eating only sugar could actually give you good skin?"
"Yes. However, usually one cannot survive on my diet. I have had years of experience."
"……………." Light continued to scrub his head, pondering this information. He had spent years himself trying to get perfect skin and hair, wasting money on products he wouldn't need after puberty, and here was L with perfect complexion just because he ate all the things that were supposed to be bad for it. His hair wasn't greasy either.
A thought stuck him then.
"L, if your body doesn't have the energy to produce body hair, how do you still have hair on your head.?"
Through the glass, he saw L turn to him.
"My body has deemed my signature hairstyle to be vital to my survival."
Light couldn't help but crack up.

And so ends the second installment! I didn't want to make separate chapters for the language thing and the hair thing, so I just squished them together. I'm writing on a whim right now. I hope you enjoyed, special thanks to world for being my translating engine! Seriously, the only one I did myself was the French. Three years of French class man! Anyway, please review! See you again! The next chapter will be hilarious.
