True to his word, Light has arrived for training and, after circulating what's being offered, has decided other things may fall into play more easily if he finds a compatible partner to work with.

....a compatible partner who is not L.

Amazing resonance or not, he refuses to accept a weapon who, in life, had been dedicated to tripping him up and undermining him at every turn. For this to work, he feels he'll need someone he, at the LEAST, can feign a bond of respect with.

After neatly filling out the nametag he is offered, Light stands with it affixed to his chest near the others who also seem to be awaiting a partner.
