Light is a politician. What could go wrong? It's very long (really 3 parts in one) and as AU as you can get. Mention/content warnings: M/MA, alcohol, drugs, emotional/physical abuse, the list goes on. Every bad thing in the world is in it in a satirical way or to make a point of it, it's hugely offensive, and the rest is about men in suits.

At a young age, Nate was misdiagnosed. Mihael wants nothing to do with the boy who screams and bangs his head on the wall. But slowly, through a poetry journal Roger forces him to keep, Mello begins to see that Near may need more help than he lets on...

Drowning properly was an art, one that Light had long perfected after the murder of his friend and finding the Death Note, but a chance moment leaves Light struggling to breath as he stumbles his way through a decade long conspiracy. And then there's L.

In the early days of the Wammy House, there were some bugs in the program. What does it take to turn a boy into a killer? Beyond Birthday's story, without the filters. Rated for disturbing imagery, language, psychological trauma and gore.

It's not right and it's not nice to try to kill the same thing twice. A divergence fiction.

The most important thing Ryuk learned watching Light Yagami was how to follow the rules to the letter and still break them.

An alternate universe. L and Raito meet under different circumstances.

He is not a saint. He is not God. Even his sense of justice is skewed. After all, how can Kira rationalize his use of the Death Note when he himself is nothing but a common criminal? A member of the yakuza? LxRaito, AU.
