    Summary

    “Tell me something good,” Mello says, expression bright with desperation.

    “Something good,” Near echoes, at a loss.

    Mello taps his fingers on the side of his cup, impatient. “Yeah. It doesn’t have to be big, just— something good that’s happened since— since.

    This Mello is new and strange to him, unnerving. Near had not heard from or seen him since the end of the investigation, and then, last week, he emailed out of the blue and told Near to meet him in a diner in rural Pennsylvania at five in the morning on a Wednesday, and now he is demanding that Near tell him something good.

    Summary

    After leaving Wammy's House, Mello tries to make his own way in a 21st century sorta manner. He's not exactly hiding, but he didn't expect anyone from his past to find him so easily, either. Not that he knows who's calling his phone sex line incessantly; just knows that this simp, whoever he is, can't get enough of him.

    And that's just fine.

    "Curiosity. I'd like to see your feet, please."

    Misa almost chokes at those words as she listens to them. L says it like it's a completely normal thing to want.

    "I knew you were a fetishy pervert," she mumbles under her breath.
