If Light had never touched the Death Note, would he ever have found an escape from the depression and boredom that plagued him? Would he have had a future at all? T for dark themes.

High schooler L has issues getting close to his immature peers, but desperately wants a satisfying relationship. He goes looking for a man- a man who can keep up with him intellectually, and otherwise... AU. Younger L, older Light. SLASH.

L meets Light in an alley when he's only 11. Light takes him in and the story of their life unfolds. They start as friends, evolve to brothers, turn into partners, and eventually, they become partners in a differnt way. Fic for icywarm! Enjoy!

Despite common opinion, being geniuses was boring; dreadfully so. For L, eating cake just wasn't cutting it anymore. In fact, just about the only thing that held any interest for him or for Light now, was the sex. L/Light SLASH, AU

Light and L have escaped Japan and have started a new life in America. But their troubles are far from over. In this new land there are much more frightening things than mass murderers and death. After all, what could be more terrifying than feelings?
