[It's probably a testament to the fact that Mello likes Chris that he takes the display of exasperation not with irritation but a slight twitch of his mouth, finding it almost funny for its exaggeration.]
That's what the scarf is for, Chris. She probably has my name already, but it's useless if she hasn't seen my entire face.
[Mello shoves his hands inside the pockets of his jacket, shrugging lightly as he does so.]
It doesn't really matter if she kills me while we're here. [A lie; one he's been telling himself since he learned that people here don't stay dead; one he's been telling himself since he woke up on Hope's altar after Bianca slit his throat.] Hope will bring me back. My concern is if she obtains that information and manages to get back to where we came from with it and kill me there, before I can finish what I've started. I can't allow that.
[Not that he can't allow for being killed - he can't allow for the timing of it to be off. He's planned that Kira will use his name and his face in order to kill him, but it has to happen at the exact right time, not a moment sooner.]
