[There's a certain unmistakeable and unavoidable nostalgia in returning to university, and Light, though he's spent the last couple of days steeling himself against any sentimentality relating to this, isn't immune to both a sense that finally everything has returned to the way it should be, while stinging from all the ways it hasn't.
It's all in the past, and I've won. I'm going to reshape this world and make it a truly beautiful place. I never needed anything else.
So much has happened in the last year alone that the familiar university campus, filled with students whose concerns only extend as far as their next assignment deadline seem even less comprehensible than ever. In a way, it's all the same. The intrigued looks, the raised eyebrows as he sits in class, the questioning looks from upperclassmen and Light is determined not to give a single damn.
He begins walking towarrds the bench where he's agreed to meet his boyfriend after class is over, and despite living together now and seeing each other every day, actually seeing him there makes him realize just how much he was looking forward to this part of the day.
Light doesn't wave, but he ducks his head slightly to hide the beginnings of a smile as he approaches.]
