I Bet On Losing Dogs
LawLight vignette ~ 753 Words
Lawliet had already accepted that his life was in the hands of Kira long before he met the man.
A hard pill to swallow, perhaps, but it was some kind of karma he supposed; after all, how many times had a criminal's life been in his hands?
But why did it have to be Light? - No, that was a stupid question. It had always been Light, Lawliet knew it from the start.
Light was Kira, Light will always be Kira.
And Kira as a concept is wrong. No human - because regardless of what Light believed, that's all he was, human - should dictate who lives and dies. Justice had never been that simple.
Lawliet knew this. He’d spent countless nights staring at Light as he slept, praying that the curtain of purposeful ignorance would rise and he could see the man for who he truly was.
Begging whatever real god there was to cure him; to take this diabolical human and force Lawliet to see him as anything less than an equal.
But then Light would wake up- glowing amber eyes would snap open and bore into his, and Lawliet seemed to forget that he was handcuffed to Kira.
He wished he knew how Light had managed to escape from himself- how he’d managed to forget the thousands of lives he’d taken, and Lawliet hated himself for being grateful for it; because if the culprit had no memory of the crime, had it even happened in the first place?
Well… yes. But he could pretend.
He could pretend that Light was Detective Yagami’s son, a student at To-Oh and the only person who’d ever matched his wits… It wasn’t like he had to pretend the last part was true though.
He could pretend that, when he stared back, he didn’t see a glimpse of red.
Lawliet mourned his own death when the handcuffs were removed, and he mourned the death of Light Yagami. At least Light’s death had been quick, only a touch of the death note.
His own would have to wait, after all.
He’d already made preparations with Watari, or, more accurately, he’d said his goodbyes; because L Lawliet was the greatest detective in the world and he knew what was coming.
And once more as he stood on the roof, bells ringing in his ears, the rain sinking into his skin, he knew what was coming.
Because it was Kira’s eyes that looked back at him as they stood in the rain; he understood that now.
Was he even pretending anymore? Lawliet couldn’t tell. Maybe for the rest of the task force, but not for him.
He was grateful for that.
In front of the task force, Lawliet could pretend that his suspicions for Light were only that- suspicions- and not painful truth.
When Light pressed a towel to his wet hair, he could pretend that there was even an ounce of affection behind the action.
When he felt Light’s eyes on him as he explained his plan to test out the thirteen days rule, he could pretend that it was because the case was so damn close to being solved that he could taste it.
Even as Watari died on the other side of the screen, as all the data was erased from almost a year of non-stop work, a tiny part of Lawliet pretended that it was an accident. That he’d get another year to build back everything they’d lost, that he’d get another year with Light.
And then his heart stopped.
Even though Lawliet had long accepted that his inevitable death would be by Kira’s hands, it didn’t make the pain in his heart any less - whether that was from the heart attack he was suffering or not.
When Lawliet felt an arm around his neck and a cotton shirt in his fist, he could almost pretend that his last moments wouldn’t be staring up at his murderer but rather the only person he’d ever felt close to loving.
A brief thought crossed his eyes as he looked at Kira’s smile.
Light Yagami and Lawliet were made for eachother.
L and Kira were not.
As bells rang in his head - the same bells that would be rung at his funeral in a few days - Lawliet could almost pretend that there was regret in Kira’s eyes.
He hated that his life didn’t flash before him, like it was meant to. He could only see his eyes, whether they were amber or red.
You better not forget me, Light Yagami.

"Maybe in another universe I wouldn't be the detective chasing after you... Maybe in that universe I'm just a man searching for someone who is equal to me and challenges me in ways regular people and cases don't... Maybe in that universe we could be Friends...dare I say."
How sad would y'all be if I made the suit that light wore to L's funeral the same suit he died in for my fanfiction?
Like some sort of grieving symbolism
Guys should I make a fanfiction about light because there's this little one shot that I read that really inspired me I'll link it in the comments once I find it again. But basically it was about how ryuk didn't want to tell light about one small thing and he didn't want to tell it to him not because he wanted to mess with light like he usually does but because not to put spoilers but it wouldn't have done light any good.
Basically my idea is to essentially explore that idea that the amount of time light has throughout his life changes multiple times based on how he is feeling and how he is mentally. Not just starting from the beginning of death Note but going all the way back to his childhood. I want to explore how his life as a police chief's son made him feel bored and that his life was monotonous but also how it affected his morals and how those morals got extrapolated to a major degree because of the corrupting nature of the death note. I also want to explore themes of loneliness and not being understood in the way that is so unique to him because he doesn't feel emotions like everyone else because at least what I've seen in the anime light doesn't seem like he has friends so I'm going to explore the friendship between him and L when he gets introduced obviously because in the same way that light is L's first friend is the same way L is lights first friend. Because the way I can understand their friendship is kind of like persona 5's main character and akechi goro because they have such a unique friendship that there are things only they can understand about each other that no one else can.
Also mind you I haven't watched death Note in years and this is my first time getting back into it. So if I do write this there may be some points that happened in Canon that I will forget. And I might explore the relationship between light and Misa because their relationship is very important to the plot because Misa doesn't love light she's obsessed with kira but light isn't kira and she very willingly lets herself be used by kira / light because even when light doesn't have his memory he still uses Misa and Misa lets it happen. Then I would also go into how light feels about misa's obsession because obviously he's using her that's plain and simple but he sees the necessity of having a girlfriend in the society they are in especially a girlfriend who is very highly regarded in that society. I want to explore how he feels like relationships aren't something he wants but he sees it as a necessity to get by.
Is this a good idea or no?
Also I don't know but I MIGHT make this a lawlight fanfiction. But it's not going to be in the way that it's going to be the primary focus of the fanfiction or making their personalities and beliefs change to suit the stereotypes that a lot of people put on to the relationship when writing fanfiction. The way I would go about their relationship would be kind of like how Misa and light mutually use each other but instead of obsession like misa has for light it would be a mutual understanding between l and light that they're both using each other but it's beneficial for both of them and that it's a two-way street rather than essentially a one-way Street like Misa and light.
NO CAKES??

crack AU where L gets fed up with the task force complaining about him being chained to Light, snaps, and just brings in Near with the explanation that the issue is clearly that L is too old and Light should be supervised by someone within his age range. Cut to Light being absolutely livid for being demoted to a babysitter and getting chained to said baby (he doesn't know that Near is actually 13 and not like... 6. this also means he feels utterly insulted by L by calling Near "someone within Light's age range"). Fast forward a bit and Light and Near are actually getting along, which results in Watari overhearing L muttering "it should have been me..." more than once, with a depressed expression.
Alright Death Note fandom I need some help
I remember reading a fanfiction about Light at Wammy’s House (along with Misa, etc) that started itself off as a theatre fanfiction, but started to delve into a murder mystery (with Light being a potential suspect and victim). What I remember the most from this was the tattoo of the Japanese letter for 4 on Light’s ankle. The victims of the murder mystery had the same tattoo, albeit in different places. Light mentions curses, and he spooks L a little when he gets desperate for something relatable. I also remember Light getting a bit depressed after the first murder, not taking care of himself and L having to drag him out of his room or whatever. Details are a little smudged, but Misa also takes them both shopping. There was also a production of Opedius Rex(?) and Light was gonna play Opedius.
If ANYONE knows where this thing is please let me know it’s been racking my brain for a while
maybe if I keep telling the story, it will never have to end. that way I can keep you alive. If the story lasts forever, so will you. yes, you die in the end. yes I am the only one who remembers. yes I am the only one who knows. But if I never say it aloud, maybe you won't die. maybe this time orpheus won't turn around. maybe peter won't deny him. maybe when I reach the end, you will have had time to come up with a clever solution and escape. maybe this time we survive it together. and the next time, you can tell this story with me. maybe everyone survives and we don't have to tell the story at all. maybe they don't. if I never finish, I'll never have to know. let me speak for a little bit longer. let me live in a world that you are also in for just a moment more. sometimes your memory feels like a noose. I'm sorry. I'm not ready for you to die
Ok hear me out death note Au were instead of dying light is reincarnated into the world of digimon 02.
Gets isekai’d to digiworld
Light is now a kid
Light and Ken are evil friends
Light has an impmon
Light fails at understanding the digiworld and light is angry about it
Light has ptsd
Light has regrets killing but ignores it
Refers to himself as kira when working with digimon emperor
Tires to take over the digital world with the ken
Disguises himself as an ali when really he's evil
When Ken turns good he reveals himself as the big bad
Eventually through the power of friendship, light grows to acknowledge his regret in his killings and becomes a better person.
Somewhere in the story lights past is revealed
Light missing L
Ken, light, and izzy have a lot of guinness people descuseones

i just remembered that before i watched death note for the first time, i was under the impression that l and light were the same character. i thought light turned into l when he used the death note and was then called dark yagami.
lawlight but they’re only together because they’re committing to the mindgame bit too hard to try getting one another’s identities is so funny
old men L and Light side-by-side on their deathbeds, holding hands as their three kids solemnly sit on the side. L is like “if Light dies first and criminals stop dying he’s DEFINITELY Kira” and Light is like “if L dies first maybe the obituary will have his real name”
Little Things About Light Yagami That I Love
He almost always leans on his hand while sitting.
He isn’t quite fond of guns.
This is anime-only, but he likes walking around with his eyes closed.
Despite how the fandom seems to believe he’s ambidextrous, I think he’s right-handed. He wears his watch on his left arm and uses his right hand to write when he has both of his hands available. Him being able to use his other hand when necessary does not make him ambidextrous.
He’s rather quiet. He doesn’t engage in conversation a lot.
He likes video games.
His room is usually dim-lit.
He uses the subway to go to To-Oh.
He has his own stupid little tv in his room.
L calls Light “homocidal” and Light’s like “it’s spelled homicidal” and L just stares.
When you start watching death note you think “wow these two intellectuals are going to do mental battle, chasing each other from long distances and having skirting meeting” not “these two are gonna be handcuffed together fist fighting in a girl’s living room by episode 18”
please excuse my hater moment but i hate when people see two characters that have the most insane dynamic and they’re like but what if it was wholesome :) okay well what if they fucked nasty style and tried to kill each other all the time also
i am a firm believer in the sicko4sicko relationship. characters who are obsessed with one another not in spite of, but because of, whatever bizzare or offputting or unusual things they've got going on. guys who look at each other and go "you're the only motherfucker in this city that can handle me" and they're probably right too. rivalries romances obsessions built on mutual hate undefined Close Companions. any sort of Thing. sicko4sicko.
Fellas, is it gay to be the last thing he sees when he dies.
L everytime Light sees him:
