Matsuda was your partner at work, though he was a bit of an idiot. When you joined the Kira case, he tagged along as well.

It was another day, another shift sitting at the same desk and filling out boring paperwork that never lead to any conclusions. You'd lost your original drive, even your respect for L started to deteriorate as he came up with blanks and solely chose to investigate Light. Everything just felt so pointless.

You felt a hand on your shoulder as your body starts to come off the autopilot and come to a stop, staring at the files blankly for a moment.

Matsuda leans over, studying your face with concern in the seat beside you. "Hey... You okay?" He asked, offering a light smile.
