the urge to redesign ryuk to be like a massive monster from the depths of hell is so constant bc like could u imagine how much funnier death note would be if it was abt a teenager in his room plotting murder while his massive multi eyed sharp toothed unnaturally angled limbed hellspawn just went “hey light do u wanna play mariokart”
I’ve seen Sayu Is Kira AU and Sayu Helps Light Be Kira AU but what about Sayu Stops Light Before He Becomes Kira AU??
L: Look at me straight in the eyes and then tell me the truth, Light-kun
Light: You can’t expect me to look into your eyes and be straight
L:
L: This is an interrogation. Please do try to be a little more professional
Light: These handcuffs are making that a little hard
Based on the phone call from episode 30 while taking some info liberties (Near merely asks the Japanese Task Force to call him if L #2 was ever suspected; not confirmed yet; and once Near brings it up, we hear Aizawa’s doubts). And I know that it was bias that ultimately killed L, but bias can lead to stupidity~. And I like the idea of Near just being done with the Japanese Task Force’s incompetence (which he is but is still milking them for use). So, maybe this happens underneath that cool exterior? In the manga, he’s much more smiley and beautifully troll-ish over the phone~.
Light Yagami is so unintentionally funny like yeah sure L was witty but that was intentional and will never top Light simultaneously taking himself super seriously and doing the most laughably ironic things with zero self-insight
Remember that time Light got so offended that Lind L. Tailor called him a murderer that he straight up murdered him on live tv?
And then accused Misa of tarnishing Kira’s name because she killed someone who disagreed with Kira on live tv?
Remember when Ryuk was like “then you’d be the only evil person left” and Light was like “nah bc I’m like, a really good student. If you get an A on your paper it actually stands for ‘Allowed to murder people just because you feel like it’ so I’m all good actually.”
had to share this note i woke up and wrote in the dead of night
i’m so sorry for this but from the first second i started watching death note, all i can think about is how much light looks like this motherfucker
Light, *snapping at L*: I mean how petty can you get!?
L: I once edited a Wikipedia article to win an argument I was wrong about
Light: ... Was it about local self-government, Article 92?
L, *blinking slowly*: Yes
Light: That was you!?!?
DEATH NOTE ⚔
This!! I can’t get over this! It really goes to show how out of touch with reality he is
Light Yagami thinking the authorities would be understanding if his method for protecting his "diary" was to commit arson is probably the dumbest thing he's come up with
