I understand, and in fact, am staying in the Kirigakure as we speak. My first true contact in this world was Kisame-san -- a fine man who offered to help me in a time of great need.

I won't forget that. It's my understanding that you are his leader. I have you to thank for my life as much as he.

Thank you.

Insofar as your powers, I am simply curious -- I have a curious nature. If you say that I will see them eventually, I can easily accept it.

It's been a pleasure to meet you, Pain-sama, and I look forward to standing before you to reveal myself as I am. I'm certain we'll see eye-to-eye.

Thank you for your audience. Until then.

[ L thinks Pain will be satisfied with this, his humility, as humble as L is able to project. He speaks carefully, mirroring Pain's language and when he peers into the monitor of the hitomi, it's as though he's looking upward into the looming face of this shinobi. L's psyche shrinks away. This Pain is intimidating, if not only for his lack of logic, but also, if the rumor mill is correct, the crushing power of which this man is capable. ]

Kisame is a good man. I trust him.

[ But he is not yet certain that he trusts this L. The man is a mystery, and Pain is wary of complete strangers.

One must be wary, after having to defend one's coutry as he has done for so many years. ]

If Kisame comes to count you as a comrade, then I shall as well.

But not until such time as I know you better.

I consider myself an agreeable person. Perhaps we will have no cause for quarrels. We shall see.

Yes, we will.

[ For an irrational moment, L wishes he had Light with him to guide him through this Gordian knot of social niceties. Of course, the thought is extremely irrational, given that Light can't be trusted, yet, if,

if Light were here with him, then L would feel significantly less pressured to return to home right away, this instant.

L must concentrate on the "God" before him, for now. ]

It seems time is on our side, Pain-sama. I'm certain I won't disappoint and equally certain that you will not.

[ An almost whisper. ] Good day. [ He offers as polite a dismissal as possible, and L really must learn to allow another to have the final word. ]
