030. Accidental Video--->Intentional Video

[There's disruption in the small flat that Light shares with L - or as the city knows him, Deneuve - this morning. He's more than a little frantic, and the first the video feed sees of him is a streak of black as his NV falls off the table and clatters to the floor.

Sounds like you lost someone important.

[Reply in private, or out loud. A reply without an answer might look odd, but he has nothing to say to Jack that he intends to share with anyone else.]

I lost L. He's a recluse, and his nature is survival first--there's no way he'd be out after the siren.

I killed him--in my past. If he's gone back then he's dead; he won't come back here again. He's a relic; I can't say I regret killing him, but at the same time seeing him alive was something I couldn't help but be grateful for. No battle between us, just two people who understood each other very well, and there were so many questions left to ask.

[A pause.]

We didn't even play tennis. [And then another.] You're probably not at all interested, I apologise.

[He just doesn't know what to say to that.]

...Hm. That's what happens when you don't do the stuff you want to do when people are still there. You just keep putting it off, and then it's too late.

No comment on the rest of it?

[He'll start thinking you're jealous, Jack.]

I've never dealt with anything like this before. People don't just get lost.

[Maybe just a little. He doesn't know L and doesn't care to know him.]

Happens more often than you might think. What would you like me to say? That I'm sorry for your loss?

Maybe. Are you?

[A pause before he replies.]

Thank you.

This apartment is...going to seem strangely empty without him in it.

You still have that dog, right?

Yes.

That's better than nothing.

It's still only a dog, and I've never really been a pet person. I... Are you busy tonight?

Could have fooled me.

You're asking me to keep you company?

Do I have to spell it out for you?

Is this a trap?

A trap? Why would it be a trap?
