    Summary

    "Here is some of the code of Mello:

    Mello likes boys. Mello is Catholic. Mello loves the phonograph needle, the hypodermic, the tattoo; Mello loves god. Mello never loses, never concedes, will fight anyone anywhere anytime. Mello spends hours on his knees, head bowed and hands clasped. He squares a lot of circles."

    Summary

    What's happening?" One asked, voice rising.

    His eyes were on the floor, the walls, etc. Everywhere the Lights had come in contact with the set, marks had been left. Scratches, smears, footprints, dents, were all a deep black.

    "Crucifixion," Ten said, eyes cold.

    Two sputtered like a car failing to start, then burst into hysterical laughter.

    -

    Sometime after his death, Light attends a dinner party.

    Summary

    When you see death, you cry. That’s what a human heart does. But you have to understand: the killer doesn’t care. He was taught another language. One where corpses are numbers and loss is a line in the margin. For him, empathy is an error in the system. To someone built on empathy, this is inhuman. To someone built on logic, those tears are senseless. Machines envy warm, fragile flesh. Humans envy the peace of being cold.

    Summary

    Light doesn’t really know what he was expecting when he snapped at L a few nights ago. He knows what he hoped for; L realizing the error of his ways and expressing his contrition in the form of a generous donation to the tip jar on the counter; L keeping his shoes on next time (which should be a no-brainer, honestly); or, better yet, there not being a next time in the first place. But that was all just wishful thinking on his part. Even geniuses need to dream, sometimes.

    When L starts talking to him, he wonders if he should have spent his time strategizing instead.
