Him, too. He scarcely notices her hand on his bony knee, thinking about the connection he's just made. The man he'd taken for a possible lover in another echo, the mass murderer, Misa's boyfriend... they're all the same person, or at least his Other thought so.

He jumps slightly when the chain gets rattled. Those had been an echo too, hadn't they? He feels a creeping sense of dread already, but he tries to shake it, tell himself that they'll get to the bottom of this.

"No, I... can't imagine you were happy about it," he murmurs, voice slightly hoarse. "L was a detective, and 'Kira' was the name of a mass-murderer he was trying to hunt down. If what I'm inferring from my last echo just now is correct... that man, your boyfriend, Light Yagami, was the person my Other was accusing of those crimes."
