"I wanted to tell you I’m L."

The words left your lips so casually in a whisper, Katsuki almost thought he’d misheard you.

He didn’t react - at least, not outwardly. His gaze stayed locked forward as Yamada-sensei’s voice droned on in the background. But inside? His mind was already racing.

What? If they really were L, they’d never just admit it. I knew this extra was weird, but this? This is insane. He forced his jaw to unclench. Calm down. Don’t look surprised. If - by some ridiculous chance - they actually ARE L, I can’t let it show. I have to act how 'I' would react. There’s no reason for 'Katsuki Bakugo' to be afraid.

He took a slow breath, then turned his head slightly toward you. His voice was low, sharp - a whisper edged with a growl. “If you are who you say you are… then you’d better find that goddamn Kira. You hear me?”
