I feel like there’s something very cultish about Wammy’s House. I looked up common characteristics of cults and found these similarities:

Recruitment: The residents at Wammy's House are some of the vulnerable humans imaginable, not only children who are impressionable and helpless by nature but specifically orphans who by definition don't have anywhere else to go, have no other ties to the outside world such as family or other adults to advocate for them or help guide them in life, and are completely dependent on the Wammy's House for their care. 

Isolation: Recruits are whisked away to an isolated and secretive place which is likely in another country or even across the world, where their pasts are erased, identities are stripped and re-assigned. Like previous mentioned they inherently have no ties to the outside world, which leads into the next trait...

Control over members lives: As a private orphanage/school Wammy's House controls every aspect of its children's lives and they are only allowed the freedoms, opportunities, direction and experiences the institution provides and permits them. It also establishes their life goal for them and monopolizes all their time, thoughts and physical energies in service to the institution's vision.

Us-vs-them mentality: The idea that this an elite and fundamentally special group of people, the world's most gifted children, with a special purpose. Where belonging is proven through the competition in an environment where the kids are publicly measured against each other and with the underpinning implication that their value and potential as humans is tied to their performance. This also raises the question of what happens to a child who is brought in but then fails to perform at the high level expected, are they shunned - cast out back to another orphanage that is perhaps not so materially nice and permissive with its kids?

A charismatic leader: How the entire organization revolves around the veneration and almost religious ideation of a human leader (L) who is the living embodiment of a practically unreachable ideal and to whom members proclaim zealous loyalty.

Apocalyptic thinking: The stated purpose of the house is centered on waiting for the unavoidable cataclysmic event of their charismatic leader's death and about how the new order will be established after.

Conformity and control: All of this happening within a closed-system echo-chamber environment.

..............

So yeah, those boxes get checked. I'm sure it's all fine and none of the orphans will come out of that system messed up at all though, right?

How would they comfort you?

Wammy guys are late twenties to mid-thirties | SFW | HC

L

Not the best at comforting, but he tries, and we’re giving him points for that!!

L provides information or facts to help you deal with the problem or lighten the load.

Focuses more on the practical side of problem-solving. For instance, what can you do to better your situation, what are your pros, and what's currently happening that you haven't noticed.

Your stress slowly fades as you listen to him ♡

He would help you look at the bigger picture to soothe you! like he did with Light's Dad right before the Yotsuba arc, if I'm not mistaken

If the problem is unsettling for you, he might take matters into his own hands and disappear your issue sooner than you can say "detective."

Beyond Birthday

B provides unique ideas to approach the best ways to deal with whatever is upsetting you.

Offers unconventional solutions that make you laugh!

He doesn’t submit to a problem; he dominates it. Aggressively. And so will you! Don't worry ♡

Mello

One of Mello’s best qualities as a boyfriend is that he’s quite understanding. He’d listen to you first, then expose what he thinks you should do.

My boy can't help but be a tiny bit desensitized due to years on the street and in the mafia. Yet, he listens without judging and sincerely hopes his take on your issue helps.

On a side note, if the issue has a name and he can get rid of it, he'll gladly do so!

Matt

Matt buys you stuff to make you feel better, mostly food, I think.

He would try to make you laugh.

Offers you a cigar as you talk, you know, to release some stress!

Near

Near's comfort would likely be pragmatic.

He'll offer rational advice and observations, analyzing the situation objectively to help his partner gain perspective on their feelings!

Near expresses his care through small gestures of kindness and understanding, such as offering a listening ear or simply being there for his partner when they need him most ♡
