Beyond won't kill me. It'd be counter productive to his goal. Also, I'm the one person he can relate to in this world. It's stupid to kill your only ally.
How comforting to know that you find yourself so similar to him.
I do not think that you, or anyone, can know for certain exactly what he will do or will not do. We can only make predictions, and these predictions will likely be difficult to form. He is likely not sane.
What did you do to ensure his cooperation in not killing Kira?
That assertion does not make me any more confident in this situation.
I said likely because I have not yet interacted with him in any real way. But, by the very definition of of the word insanity, his actions will be erratic and difficult to predict. No one can claim to understand such a mind, completely.
If you haven't realized Near, I'm not exactly stable myself.
You don't have to work with him, nor does he want to work with you, L. There's a reason I did what I did. You're L's successor, thus making you a target. If I didn't bring it in terms B would understand and state my claim on your life as mine you'd be dead Near.
The only reason I've let you know he's even here is because I'm to compile a report full of the past seven years and I wanted you to help me do so. Proof read it if you will.
I realized that long ago. That does not necessarily make you more qualified. If anything, it would detract from your ability to theoretically comprehend such a mind.
If we are playing the same game, our goals will potentially converge. Cooperation may become necessary. [he pauses at that, though] I see. And I suppose that I ought to thank you, in that case.
...I do not like the idea of sharing information with such a person, either.
B already stated our goals have crossed, and if he's realized it so quickly, it's necessary to cooperate now and give him a good impression. It's absolutely dire to cooperate with him Near. He's more dangerous than Kira is.
Well, like it or not, it'll happen. That's why we're going to write the report together.
I'm not asking you to write it all, I want you to help me pick what B should and shouldn't know. You're always berating me on working as a team and now you want nothing to do with something that's saving your life. For fuck sakes Near.
I want to work as a team with you. I do not want to involved failed successors. I think that such an effort will preserve your bargain with Beyond only as far as he wants it to. Once he has no more use for such a deal, he will disregard it. He will not play by any rules.
I do not understand why you find it so difficult to believe that I would not want to cooperate with such an effort.

Guess who's his best friend now?

I've also insured your safety along with Kira's life, since he seemed quite adamant about killing the man.

I would prefer that you would have avoided dealing with him at all. I assume you bargined for your own life as well?

Hard for you maybe. Obviously he's not sane Near. He's one of us only the first generation. A cracked individual with a brilliant mind.
I offered to provide him with information and offered for him to instead of work against us, to join in our game.

I will not write such a report with the intent of handing it over to B. He is even more of a failure than L.
