Ryuk: Oh, I get it. That little note that Light "accidentally" dropped was actually torn from the pages of the Death Note itself. Since he tricked this guy into touching the paper, he's the only other one on the bus who can see me. That's so smart!
Busjacker: Get away!
(He tries to shoot Ryuk.)
Ryuk: Sorry, pal. I'm a shinigami, so I'm afraid those bullets aren't gonna kill me.
(Busjacker freaks out and empties his gun on Ryuk, in vain.)
Ryuk: Anyone who touches the Death Note can see me...I stay 'til the Death Note is finished or I see you die, whichever comes first...And a shinigami can't die from being shot. I've said all these things at one time or another. Well, he is the top-ranked student in the country. Guess I shouldn't be surprised. edit »
Ryuk: (thinking about Light) He's not the slightest bit daunted by the fact that I'm a shinigami. He doesn't suck up to me, and he seems to have no problem giving me a hard time. edit »
Light: Next it's your turn, Ray Penbar. edit »
Light: Don't you think it would be godlike to have wings and be able to take to the sky at will? It's a dream humans have had since ancient times.
Ryuk: You'd stick out if you had wings and could fly. That alone would be enough for the cops to come after you. edit »
Light: But if I make a bunch of deals on things like wings and eyes, before I know it, I'll become a real death god. Wouldn't that be interesting?
Ryuk: Relax. Light, even without doing something like that, you're already.... a fine death god. edit »
