[A tall, lanky young man, dark-haired, with makeup under his eyes, peers into the camera. It's unsettling to see, as though he's looking through the comm and straight at the viewer.]Hello. I am Rue Ryuuzaki, unprivate detective. If anyone has a case that needs solving, I would be willing to lend my assistance - for a fee, of course. For those

Who is this freak?

Hrk!
[And stumbling backwards and landing on the floor and ouch.
Looking up at Light now.]
What?

Rue Ryuuzaki. You referred to him as Beyond. Who is he?

I would appreciate it if you did not butt your head into my conversations, Light-kun.

Look, I have a right to be concerned when someone who is obviously obsessed with you shows up in Johto. You are my friend after all. [A lie, but L didn't have to know that.]

[And then pushing himself up from the floor to face Light.]
You have no reason to delve into my personal business and I would appreciate it if you did not, Yagami-kun.

"Personal business." Don't make me laugh L. Do you really think that this Beyond is going to leave you alone? You don't think he might try to find you? Find us? [The last syllable comes out as an angry hiss.] Do I therefore not have a right to know at the very least if he is friend or foe?

[Forehead. FLICK. Before he shuffles off in search of sugar cubes.]
He will be accompanying us on our journey once I finish talking to him.
[Opening up the jar of sugar cubes and sticking a hand in--]
He is... how do you say... [A bit of a thoughtful and slightly troubled look before he plucks a sugar cube out of the jar and pops it into his mouth, turning to Light.]
Unique.

Yet, Light is from after he came here. From the future, which means that if that L from home is himself, Light won't remember a thing about this place once he goes back, neither will he. So, he's safe in that regard.
Still, he needs to figure out how to phrase this. So after a moment's pause, he pops the sugar cube in his mouth and bites down before looking over at Light again.]
You know very little of my past, which is for the best really, I assure you. Beyond was a criminal in one of my previous cases. A very... tricky criminal at that. Do not worry, he was later caught and put into jail as, of course, that is my duty.
[Long and thin fingers tap against the tabletop, showing at least a tinge of restlessness caused by this conversation in L. He's not good with these talks of his past, or things related to him ( ... )

[Light listens intently with his arms folded across his chest, his expression thoughtful. Clearly if L was going to be generous enough to give an explanation, about his past nonetheless, there's little doubt in Light's mind that it is because the detective is convinced Light will not remember it. Either that or this Beyond person is extremely dangerous ( ... )

Because you are Kira, simply put.

No. No, I am not. But we've gotten off topic. I refuse to travel in the company of a potentially dangerous criminal.
