What will love make you do? L/Light, canon divergence, oneshot. "Scarcely himself, scarcely sane."

"Do you think Mikami is more intelligent than I am?" Light knew that there was no way that L was simply fishing for compliments, but he wasn't sure what he was trying to accomplish either. To Light's surprise L swiveled around in his chair, facing him with a small smile. "Why don't we do a test?"

Can it be moral to kill someone? Well, what better stress test to that question than a notebook like this. The prodigy child of the country is not the one to find it. Instead, it falls in the hands of his average, oblivious, ordinary sister... Maybe her brother can help with the answer?

Esther Cohen thinks Kira could do better. Getting rid of murderers and rapists is fine by her, but she feels he isn't getting rid of the actual evils in the world. When she finds a Death Note dropped by the shinigami, Zellogi, she decides that she has an obligation to use it to make the world right. Crossposted to Ao3

L and Light eat cake, but of course they can't do it normally. A power struggle and elaborate mind games ensue.

Matsuda hadn't meant to get caught by Yotsuba's executives when trying to prove his worth. Not wanting to ruin the investigation and to save his own skin, he takes up the salacious offer proposed by one of the executives. A deal that would push his limits on how far he'd go for the investigation and uncover secrets of a dark past.

But, when the twelve FBI agents are killed by Kira, Violet gets drawn back in L and his ways as he seeks her help in the case. OCxL follows the anime timeline, but L's, Near's and Mello's ages have been changed to fit the story.

One year after the death of Light Yagami, more than halfway across the world in Waco, TX, a Goth girl and a teenage witch named Marie Monroe tries to get on with her life despite being constantly haunted by hallucinations of Light Yagami who she knows is Kira. This all fails when she finds a Death Note and meets someone she never thought that she'd meet.

L visits Beyond Birthday as he recovers in a maximum security hospital in order to find out why B committed horrific murders in pursuit of being like him. He finds himself indelibly changed by the experience.

It was only a kiss. Keiko never expected to get involved with Light Yagami and the Kira investigation. Fate, however, had other plans. Slowburn! LxocxLight

Light sends L another secret message. It causes wild speculation but gets Light no closer to L, so Light buys him Valentine's chocolates. L asks Light to pretend to be Kira for him, but is this enough to satisfy Light?

Sayu Yagami never thought she'd be anything special; just the little sister to the smartest guy in the world. Then everything changes when she is given the Life Note, a mysterious notebook with the power to bring the dead back to life. Now it's up to her to put a stop to Kira, even against her own odds.

After being detained by L and losing his memory, Light tries to make sense of all that has happened to him.

Las campanas resuenan con estruendo haciendo temblar las paredes de las solitarias calles a merced del Nocturno. La sangre que bebemos y el cuerpo que comemos traerá a nosotros el espíritu del Destructor y el Angel del Karma abrirá sus alas encarchadas con el fuego del infierno para condenar a todas aquellas almas abrazadas por el pecado. AU Antichrist.

Ryuzaki rencontre Raito ; L rencontre Kira. Vous connaissez le plan de Raito pour tuer L ? Personne ne peut prévoir l'inattendu, surtout lorsqu'il se produit. Deux imprévus dans le plan, deux grains de sable dans les rouages. Suffisants pour redistribuer les cartes ? Yaoi - (very) slow burn - collab avec Haaru - en cours

Light talks to a priest about the fate of Kira's soul after death, while Ryuk checks out the communion wafers.

My own alternative ending to the anime series Deathnote. This story takes place after L's death.

Matsuda gets the idea to develop a live-action TV series called Death Note. One day, he stays late after school to reach out to the classmate who sparked the idea. This is a prequel to "Rewrite the World." [Matsuda/Male OC]

A potential scenario in where Light won against Near. Sayu had now lost all contact with Light and she felt as alone as ever. She couldn't understand why Light was unable to face her and their mother. The only conclusion she could come to was that Light had been so ashamed of himself for being unable to defeat Kira, he can no longer face them. However, was this truly the case?
