[L shivers at the close contact, paradoxically; Light feels so warm, after all, lithe muscle to L's sharp bones. He chuffs laughter against Light's ear, and speaks softly.]
Who said anything about decisions?
[Who said you have a choice in the matter?]
It is what it is, right?
[The hand at Light's buttons presses briefly against his chest, dipping toward his ribs at a slow slide.]
To be clear... I have no desire to humiliate or hurt you, in spite of what you might think. I feel I've always rewarded honesty, however compelled it might be.
[He drags his lips along Light's cheek, stopping short of his mouth, pulling abruptly away and hopping from the counter to walk past him, beginning the process of putting the tea kettle on.]
If it does feel too much like a risk, though... definitely think on it. I won't be offended.
[In fact, L's obviously high spirits say pretty clearly that he's having a grand time. Whether or not his casual ease with physicality is a bluff remains to be seen.]
