Who? Me? Did I take my medication? How do YOU know if I'm on medication? Huh? HUH?! HUH?!

... Fuck.

Territory


"Light, I know that it was nice of you to offer to let Sayu stay with us while your parents are out of town, but a few problems have been cropping up."

"Like what?" Light asked, pausing momentarily in adjusting his tie. Tilting his head back, he glanced at L, seeing a mildly annoyed expression on the demon's pale, thin face.

"Just little things… like when I go into the bathroom-" L started, but Light cut him off.

"Whoa, wait," Light said, finished adjusting his tie, finally turning to face the incubus with a raised eyebrow. "You don't need to go to the bathroom, L."

Upon which L gave him a deadpanned look, saying, "Light. I still need the mirror to see what I look like when I wake up. Remember the time you left me handcuffed to the bed overnight and I didn't know that it had given me a bad case of bed-head and we were late for breakfast at your parent's house and it was really, really awkward to explain why part of my hair was flattened on one side and not the other and-"

"Alright, L!" Light sighed, shaking his head in exasperation. "Get to the damn point!"

"I keep finding these," and here L held up a single black bobby pin, "on the counter of the bathroom. They're always there, no matter how many I keep throwing away. They keep coming back, Light," L insisted. "It's like Night of the Living Bobby Pins or some shit like that."

"…"

Light stared incredulously at the incubus that appeared to be, for all intents and purposes, wholly serious.

Raising a finger, L then concluded, "And, I am now firmly convinced that leaving these is how females mark their territory."
