What you'd like? Maybe I didn't know it as well as I thought I did before coming here. I'm learning a lot about the things you like, after all.
[ It's a direct and obvious steer away from Kira. Light's obviously not trying to avoid the topic considering his demands to focus on the confession, but it's also a direct line between L's statement and what happened to them moments before.
It's also an exercise in honesty. Light never imagined L would be a sexual being, never imagined he'd be teaching orphans or finding soft spots for certain people. Admittedly, back at home, it was such a limited, constrained experience. A person standing above the world would live differently than one who had to walk among it instead.
The kiss... Light isn't sure he can call it a surprise. Sometimes, hadn't it felt like it was something there? Something on the verge, as if they stood on opposite sides of a window with only the thinnest sheets of glass, close enough that the air they breathed nearly fogged the pane? Neither acted on it, for whatever reason, but they both seemed to agree on that reason. Now, it's in the open, done, and neither pulled away quickly enough to claim it as an accident. ]
