"Oh......." He said quietly. "What do I do here? Are you going to hurt me like daddy did?"

"You're here to learn. We're going to nuture your intelligence so that you can grow up as smart as someone like me. And no, I'm not going to hurt you."

L quickly finished with the papers and explained the situation thoroughly to Near. He told the boy about his parents (without going into too much detail), about Wammy's House, and the expectations that had to be met during his time at the orphanage.
"...And as I already told you, your name is now Near. Any questions?"

Near's smile faded.
"I bet they miss you."

"Hmm, maybe. I don't think about it though. They're of irrelevance to me."

Near tilted his head. "Why? My mommy told me I was here world."

"...I don't need them, and they don't need me," L replied, wanted to get off this strange subject. He'd honestly never given his biological family much of any thought before. Besides sharing genes, he had no connection with them.

Near hugged L and smiled.
