✟ Seventh Wink - [ Audio || Private to Light ] - I came back

[ It took Misa a while to realize where she was again. The last thing she remembered was running to do what Light instructed her. She was to find the Death Note he buried. The rest--- became a blur. When she finally realized that she was in the manor again--- she could recognize her room--- she knew it was Light she had to contact first.

She believed it would all be alright if Light was here. She didn't want to stay in this strange world alone. ]


Light?! Light!?

Is Light still here?

It's Misa. Misa is here---Light? Please answer me?

[ Light's well aware of Misa's loyalty, that he hasn't questioned. It's her intellect that falls short of expectations. With a small half smile and his tone slightly less clipped; soft: ] I know. I'll be forever grateful to you.

[ To an extent anyway, it's true. And then his tone resumes its usual business-like manner. He frowns as it dawns on him that Gokudera's set-up has also disappeared. ]

We are going to have to do something about your room to protect you from B as that deranged psychopath is still here. I can set up a trip wire in the vent that will alert the entire Manor if he crosses it, which should be enough for the meantime.

[ Finally, he hands Misa back her Death Note. The Note didn't work, but it did go back and forth between dimensions. Physics would say that anything that happened here, would be isolated- including writing down memos to oneself in the Death Note. In theory, writing down Mello's name here, didn't mean that it would survive the time rift back. In other words, the Death Note would remain in the same pristine condition as Light had originally buried it all those months ago. An annoying thought. But it is worth the experiment if no one was able to find the Death Note, which- ]

How are you going to hide this?

Yeah.

[The word comes out, almost as though he's distracted. Gokudera Hayato had been a useful little thing, Light wouldn't deny that. However, over the months that he had actually, unwittingly gotten to know the goddamn brat and his past, he couldn't help but feel... well, not sympathetic, but something that he recognized as being something resembling, but not quite, indebtedness than appreciative in nature. In any event, it was an unnecessary emotion to harbor towards another discardable human being. Annoying, too. Kneeling on the floor next to Misa, he uses the tips of his fingers to test the floorboards in the vicinity she indicated.]

Ah, I found it.

[He presses down on the floorboard, to reveal the space underneath.]

This should be good enough for now, but if anyone decides to seriously search your room, this won't be good enough. But [He frowns slightly.] I can't see any reason why anyone would bother. As long as you don't give anyone a reason to suspect anything, it shouldn't be an issue.

Was there anything else you needed to tell me?

[He should have known this would come up. This is Misa's infamous short attention span kicking in again, even in the most unromantic of situations. Where Light is contemplating how to possibly bend the rules of physics, Misa's head remains firmly on her goddamn hormones. Typical. Oh so typical. He sighs. Well if would shut her up. Besides, she hadn't exactly specified where.]

Sure.

[He angles his head towards hers, and leans in to peck her cheek.]

Welcome back, Misa. I missed you.

[...Not exactly untrue, either, seeing as Misa came with a very useful package called the Shinigami Eyes.]

[Aaaaah yes, then there's the second reason Light is begrudgingly glad to see Misa's return. The control. The knowledge that he literally has another person's life in his hands to toy with if he chose. Light wouldn't, being the moral, upstanding person he believes himself to be is, but the not-so-subtle living reminder of this fact does make him smirk to himself as he turns to leave Misa's room. For better or for worse, Misa is Light's most valuable ally at the Manor, and he would use whatever means to keep it that way.]

If there's anything you need make sure to call me on a private line, understand? And remember, keep an eye on the people I mentioned to you. If you do that, we can go on a date.
