Haven't uploaded in like, two whole days. THE WORLD IS ENDING!

And I don't even have an excuse... :(. Does laziness count?

(*)

Why did I say that?

I'm too impatient.

Baka.

I'm a stupid, idiotic Baka.

I just proved it because I just said I was a stupid, idiotic idiot.

Baka.

That's me.

Now L will throw me in jail and I'll never save him.

Baka.

I'm so stupid!

I covered my face with my hands.

Stupid!

Peeking through my fingers, I studied L, who seemed to be studying ME.

Finally, after the longest period of silence in the history of the world, he spoke.

"Who is Kira?"

Not 'what you did was wrong' or 'the man you killed had family', simply 'who is Kira?'.

A that moment I loved L; he saw through the stupid masks I had put up and just looked at ME.

But that warm love was immediately frozen by the cold fact that I couldn't tell him who Kira was.

I wasn't here to wreck the plot.

I was simply here to save L.

Cursing my stupidity, I removed my hands from my face and said, "If I tell you I will wreck the past, future and present. I'm so sorry L, I just... Can't. I'm doing everything in my power to save a dear one and I can't slip up or my knowledge of the future will be gone. I've already stepped my boundaries joining into your game; I can't just reveal Kira's identity or everything I've worked for will be ruined. I'm sorry."

Lawliet simply chewed his thumb in his thinking pose.

Head cocked to the side, a thoughtful look in his dark rimmed eyes and of course that fingernail being gnawed on, if I wasn't in such a critical situation I would be completely fan-girling over his cute position.

Since I WAS in a critical position, I pushed back those thoughts and resisted the disturbing images flooding my mind.

A loud knock resounded through the room, and Watari entered carrying what seemed to be a... A uniform?

"Oh!" I said out loud, "You're going to Light's entrance exams! Can I come with?"

"No."

"Whaaat?" I whined, "Why not?"

L sighed. "As much as you don't want to admit it Joker; or Insanity as you said, you are still a criminal, and as such you will be under arrest in this apartment."

"But L, I know what your plan is! If I tell Light that I'm Joker AND you tell him you're L, I'm sure we can get a reaction out of him! I know his thoughts as well as his actions; when you tell him who you are he freaks! If I tell him too I'm sure we can get him!"

L considered, then hesitantly nodded.

"However... "

*.*.*

I clearly remembered the conversation between L and I last night.

I had told him about how Light would freak when I said I was Joker.

Of course, I hadn't told him about how Light already knew.

But... "Were the handcuffs really necessary?" I asked.

"Completely." L said.

I growled under my breath, telling him to close his eyes while I changed into the uniform.

L nodded, and I reached to take my shirt off when I realised I couldn't.

"L!" I whined, "Get the friggin handcuffs off already; I can't change!"

L took them off me and locked the door so I couldn't run out.

I sighed. "Did you have to do that? You make me feel like a prisoner."

"You are one." He said, then walked to face a corner of the room, covering his eyes as he got there.

I sighed once more and stripped, chucking the uniform over my head a second later.

It looked... How can I put this; skanky! The skirt was far too short and the shirt too low. I growled at the clothes in my reflection, then turned to face L.

"Panda man!" I yelled. He turned around and I continued; "Get me a guy's uniform, now!"

"No." He said calmly.

Then, however, he looked at the uniform and said, "Actually, I think it would be a good idea to let you use a smaller version of mine." I inwardly grinned, then outwardly grinned as Watari walked in with a smaller version of the guys uniform.

Man, this guy was prepared for everything!

I shooed him out with quick thanks and closed the door once more, then turned to L.

Seeing that he was already in the corner, I took off the horrid outfit and changed into the pants and shirt, not bothering with the tie.

"Okay, let's go!" I exclaimed. L cocked his head to the side and held out the handcuffs.

Damn him.
