[No, they in fact have not "got it from here." L is fairly intoxicated and Light is a step up from a hologram. It's still incredibly annoying that Rich is questioning it at all when L would rather they just leave. Jeremy's got the right idea; it's too bad that of the two of them, he's rather the one who's a bit more of a pushover. He needs a more powerful advocate to leave him to his evening of brooding self-destruction, clearly.]
Your parents didn't name you "Rich," right? It's "Richard?" You're clearly familiar with the concept of nicknames?
[Nevermind that "Ryuzaki" is a very far cry from "Linden", even with a heavy Japanese pronunciation. Much farther from the surname Tailor, which makes it even stranger.]
I like how you assume that interrupting is just second nature to everyone.
[A more pointed remark, clearly directed at Rich, the guy who ran right over to interrupt Jeremy and L's conversation the second he heard it was happening. It was so swift that L does question whether or not Jeremy asked him to come, though he insisted he hadn't.]
Believe it or not, this situation doesn't need a hero. A lot of situations don't. Jeremy gets that.
[Light doesn't have a locked-in response that's really appropriate for this. He just appears to observe with no strong feelings on the situation.]
