[Some of the babbling might have been important to Near once. Curious inklings of a past he had little part in. But that reign of L is in the past. He would only be sating his own curiosity to ask about it. He won't direct this conversation that way. His bonded's mental health is more important.
He can't tell L that he's not seeing what he thinks he is. This isn't a spell he can break the man free of. The best he might be able to do is calm him somewhat.
Not that he's particularly good at comforting.
Though Near had wanted to avoid actually touching L for as long as possible, he decides that the best course of action he can take right now is to slap his mentor as hard as he can across the face.
(And it has to be as hard as he can, or else it probably wouldn't do much at all.)]
Stop talking. I told you to look at me. Are you that afraid?
[It's not a fair thing to ask. Anyone would be afraid in his position.]
