On the nights L actually decides to sleep
L: I love eating cake
Light: (what is he trying to say? Is he trying to see if my reaction to him liking cake means I am kira? Is he baiting me to posion him? I could poison all his food and blame it all on Matsuda if I want. He probably makes Watari taste all his food before he eats them)
L: Light, do you like cake?
Light: (is this a trick? Is he trying to make me think about cakes while he analyses my responses, to see if I am Kira or not? Does my answer prove I am innocent or guilty? He can't prove anything by my answer) Not much, Riyuzaki.
L: Kira doesn't like cakes, what a shame.
Light: how do you know?
L: you just said you don't like Cake much didn't you Light?
Light: (uhhh he got me! How did I slip up!) I am not Kira
L: yeah sure and I am not the best detective in the world
Holy shit man, this is brilliant
I’ll write it down here, because I’ll likely never actually get round to writing this and I might as well put it up for adoption. Warning for an extremely dark and fucked up headcanon, with mentions of stalking and possessive behaviour.
I’m absolutely in love with an AU where Light is dangerously obsessed with L. Whether it’s entirely under the influence of Kira, or Kira merely emphasises toxic traits that already existed doesn’t really matter - L is like nobody he’s even encountered before, a challenge, someone who can actually surpass his own intelligence. He isn’t hopelessly boring like everyone else Light has encountered in his life and the more time they’re around each other, the more Light is determined to have him.
It’s not love. Light has deluded himself into believing it’s love, he’s convinced L is the love of his life and they’re soulmates, but to any onlooker, it’s the textbook definition of creepy stalker. Light still plans to win and create his New World, but he wants L right there with him. He wants to give him the Death Note, convince him to make a deal for Shinigami Eyes, christen him as the second Kira so they can rule together. He’ll stop at nothing to make that happen.
Anyone who gets in the way of this future he’s planned for the both of them has to be eliminated, because no one is going to ruin this for him. Eventually, the murders become less about covering his tracks, and more about doing away with anyone who is potentially a rival for L’s attention and affections. A random stranger makes advances at L, and is coincidentally hit by a train less than twenty-four hours later. Even making eye contact for too long can earn you a heart attack. The more time goes on, the more careless and reckless Light gets.
The catalyst is Watari, the only person L really trusts. Light is able to convince Rem that Watari is the real threat to Misa, that L will come round, they just need to get rid of the old man who has a hold on him. And the next five years is just Light stripping away L’s resilience piece by piece. Watari is dead. Aiber and Wedy are dead. Everyone that L was able to fall back on is gone, and the more alone he feels, the closer he inches towards Kira’s arms.
But Light still has a stumbling block to overcome before he has complete control. Technically three stumbling blocks, who are L’s successors and determined to bring him down now that L has all but given up on life. It’s not an issue. Light is happy enough to play their games if the end result is having L to himself. He’s particularly looking forward to dispatching of Near, the one who embodies L the most, the “favourite” you could dare say.
At this point, he certainly isn’t above murdering children. He’ll do whatever it takes to ensure he becomes the centre of L’s world.
Little does he knew, his own arrogance will ultimately be his downfall.
