"Yagami-San, could I possibly see Light-Kun's childhood videos?" L asked Soichiro one evening, a few days after serveying Light through the hidden cameras.
"Uh, of course... If it's to do with the Kira case."
"It is. I was wondering if Light-Kun had ever shown anything as a child that would lead to his becoming Kira," L said, delicately selecting a large slice of chocolate cheesecake.
"In that case, I'll get them now." Soichiro left the building, driving home. He returned with a single video cassette and handed it to L.
"Only one, Yagami-san?"
"Uhm, yes. Light didn't much like being filmed as a kid, so we had to do it without his knowing."
"Hm, then there is only a very small chance we will actually find something, however, a small chance is better than none." He sidled off to put it on and watch it. At that point, Matsuda ran up.
"We're watching home videos of Light? Wow, I'd love to see him as a kid! He must have been so cute!" So Matsuda was invited along to the show.

They had been watching for a couple of hours, so far only seeing Light do extraordinary things for a child his age, like reading an adult book at three and sketch an accurate bird at four, even play some piano at five. Matsuda and L occasionally complimented him to his father, who always smiled and nodded.
"There's just one more clip on here, it's the one time he acctually played with toys."
Little Light Yagami crept into his room with a few objects clutched to his chest. He closed the door quietly and dropped them, revealing them to be barbie dolls. He plopped down on his bottom and grinned.
"Ahaha! Baarbiiee! Last time I checked, you've been commiting crimes, Ken said he saw you stealing, so you know what that means?" He snatched up the grinning doll and tugged at her head until it came off with a 'pop!'. "AHAHAHAHAA! Justice prevailes! Here you go, Chelsea!" The boy handed a handbag over to a doll, Identical to the first except for eye and hair colour. "Now I am Justice and people living in my world are happy happy happy! Isn't that right, Ken?" He held the male doll up to his ear and grinned, then paused, letting his face fall. "There's a... camera in here, Kenny! Mummy and Daddy have been recording this!"
At which point, Chibi Light had dashed forward and the screen turned into static. L's eyes were wide.
"Yagami-San... Did you ever think that that was a little strange?"
"How do you mean?"
"Well, Light-Kun seemes to play with dolls. He has his own barbies. Just a matter of interest, but could your son be gay?"
"OH! Well, I didn't think about that but... It makes sense." Soichiro thought back to times such as when Light wore his mother's make-up, then claimed to be 'Learing to apply it if I ever felt the need to become a make-over artist' and when he stole Sayu's bras and strutted around his room in them (They nearly didn't find out about that one).
"Uhm, I thought he was killing dolly criminals for the sake of justice, just like kira..." Matsuda trailed off as he realised the other two were leaving the room. He sighed. No one listened to Matsuda...
A/N And who said Matsuda was dumb! It's L and Soichiro who're dense! :P Review! Chibi Light commands it!
