#FEEL SO LAWLIGHT CODED

[nezz-cringe-crib]

i know it's a fnaf song but chat please say you see the lawlight vision please somebody i cant be the only one who sees it.

like this is the emo sulky rain shit that L was trying to communicate to light telepathically you can't tell me otherwise it just makes sense.

[liquidpaperdraws]

@lawlightweek2024 day 7: AU

!! I do not support JKR, which is why I enjoy Harry Potter exclusively through fan content and other means that don't put any more money in her pockets !!

That being said, this idea has been kicking around in the back of my head for months.

I'm honestly surprised almost nobody has done this crossover. I looked it up and there's maybe 7 or 8 fanfics and 12 pieces of fanart on all of tumblr, deviantart, fanfiction.net, and ao3 in total that combine Death Note and Harry Potter. It seems like it should be a more popular AU considering the overlap in time period and target demographic.

Alright, now here are some headcanons:

Light:

5th year

Was supposed to go to Slytherin, but convinced the sorting hat to put him in Gryffindor instead (that's where his father went, after all)

Gryffindor's token Evil Friend™

Wants to eliminate the death eaters and all dark wizards by any means necessary (as well as anyone who looks at him funny)

Is against unforgivable curses except when he uses them, because he totally has good reasons you guys

Nearly was able to get all three deathly hallows for himself

Avada kedavra avada kedavra avada kedavra

Good at persuasion, memory charms, and making polyjuice potion

Keeps killing so many others who are also trying to fight Voldemort for not being willing to murder as much as he is

Created the Death Note himself so he wouldn't have to keep spamming avada kedavra

L:

7th year

The sorting hat had a hard time deciding, but eventually picked Ravenclaw

He was disappointed (he wanted to be in Hufflepuff for the snacks)

Master of mind-reading, invisibility, divination

Possible werewolf

kept breaking the dress code by "forgetting" his socks, sweater, and shoes so he mastered illusion spells solely for the purpose of cloaking it look like he was wearing the uniform correctly and not getting in trouble

frequently uses duplication charms on cake so he can eat more of it without eating more calories

Doesn't talk to anyone but somehow knows all their secrets (he was spying on them using an invisibility cloak, crystal ball, etc)

His parents are unknown and dead so nobody knows how to be blood-racist to him

Lawlight:

L and Light constantly try to one up each other at wizard chess supposedly to show their superiority but really it's to impress each other

L got his hands on an invisibility cloak so he could follow Light around and spy on him but Light used the marauders map to figure out that L was following him

they won't admit their feelings for each other

Light started dating Misa (Hufflepuff) to beat the gay allegations but she realized what he was doing and decided to slip him a love potion to force him to love her back. L was the only person who noticed and begrudgingly decided to help Light by reporting her. Light confessed his feelings for L after that.

[naberiuz]

light of his life (fire in his loins) NSFW

Read on: AO3

“Does Light have any experience?” L whispers to his ear.

Light grits his teeth, seething. In another scenario, he would have admitted the truth. But this was L who held everything over his head, who makes Light feel inadequate, like he’s still just a child who needs to be gently guided through every single thing.

“Who do you take me for?” He replies irritably.

(In the most plain sense, Light loses his virginity to his boss.)

Thank you, off to the races by lovely_yellow_strawberry and (Not) According to Plan by FlamesRise for making a home in my brain.

I’m on that age gap, power imbalance, daddy kink lawlight grind bros. This shit is serious.

Massive thank you to Eli (astral_aphelion) for never giving up on me 😭

-

Light’s back slams on expensive oak doors. Had he been in his right mind, he would’ve voiced out a strong complaint at the rough treatment. But the tongue and teeth currently assaulting his neck deprived him from following through that line of thought.

Light Yagami, 22, is on a mission. He had been paid very generously by L’s business rival, Eraldo Coil, to dig up dirt on his boss. Any less than legal transaction, any unpleasant history, any petty mistake he could use to smear L’s pristine reputation. Light sincerely doubted Eraldo Coil would ever have enough to even put a smudge on L's name, but he’s got a bone to pick with his boss. 

His terribly unprofessional, inappropriate boss who never appreciates all the hard work he does. His boss who blatantly disregards etiquette and dress code, always running light ragged with insignificant tasks on top of his already demanding workload.

L, who is currently kissing him with a hunger so ravenous he might as well be devouring him.

If he could ruin the older man in some way, even just the slightest bit… then it’s worth it. He'll be paid as a nice bonus too.

He doesn’t know how it happens, but L manages to open the door behind him. Light tumbles backward, but he’s caught by L’s arm around his waist. It would have been a sweet gesture, had it not for L’s palm sliding over his ass cheek to grope him tightly. 

Light curses himself for his inebriation, having had too much wine to drink during his dinner with L. A date, he insisted. He entertained the older man’s request mostly because he knew something like this would happen.

Unfortunately for L, Light is good at multitasking. He starts making a quick note of his surroundings while L ravishes his throat. Sleek white marble floors, a huge Pollock painting hanging in the living space, towering bookcases. A home office to his right, where he could possibly start his digging while L is asleep.

He’s quickly distracted by L turning him around to hold him from behind, his back to the older man’s chest. And a very prominent bulge poking at his backside. L noses at his neck, pressing soft, little kisses.

“Does Light have any experience?” L whispers to his ear. His hands are already working on unbuttoning light’s shirt. The impatient bastard . “I wonder if Light will even be any good in bed?”

Light grits his teeth, seething. He’s had several casual flings. All of them wrapped around his pinky finger before he eventually cast them aside. He kissed them, touched them, promised them meaningless things, but Light couldn’t ever consider intercourse with any of them. It was something that felt too intimate, too exposing, and Light just wasn’t willing to give anyone that privilege.

In another scenario, he would have admitted his lack of experience. But this was L, who held everything over his head. Who makes Light feel inadequate, like he’s still just a child who needs to be gently guided through every single thing. Like he didn’t graduate top of class and continues to deliver exceptionally as L’s secretary. Light refuses to give him the satisfaction this time.

“Who do you take me for?” He replies irritably, digging his nails over L’s forearms as the older man worked through the last of the buttons.

“As expected of Light. Stellar in everything, even in bed. Surely I won’t be disappointed?” L teases, licking the shell of his ear.

Light couldn’t stop the shudder that wracked him, moaning lowly. “You—if anything, it’s you I’m worried about.” He fires back, fully intending it as an insult. 

L chuckles, turning him around to face him once more. Light should hate how he’s being manhandled like this.

“I do not claim to be experienced. Maybe Light could teach me?”

Light bites his lip. Instead of replying, he closes the gap between them, going for another deep kiss. L returns it just as fiercely, cupping his hands under Light’s butt and lifts. Light lets out a gasp, not expecting the sudden change, wrapping his legs around the other man’s hips.

L’s penthouse is huge and opulent, and Light wishes he had enough time to take all of it in. L tosses him on the bed, pressing a quick kiss to his lips before turning around to rummage around his drawers. Light takes that moment to appreciate the king-sized bed and the floor to length windows showcasing a view of Tokyo's nightscape. His disheveled reflection looks back at him, dotted by twinkling neon lights from the city below.

He brings his gaze back to the other man. L lazily pops the buttons of his shirt, an amused smirk playing on his lips.

It infuriates Light. 

L moves so slowly, eyes trained on him, like a predator who had cornered his prey. Just moments away from claiming his prize.

Light sits up to shake off his already unbuttoned shirt, then removes his pants with as much grace as he could muster despite the tremor in his hands. He meets L‘s gaze the entire time, who just watches him appreciatively. His very pale, toned body almost looks glowing under the moonlight.

“Such a beautiful boy.” L murmurs, crawling forward to bracket Light’s body with his arms. “So delightful. Like strawberry shortcake.”

Light rolls his eyes at the corny expression. He runs a hand over the other man’s chest, then tries to push the other to lay down. But L doesn’t budge.

Instead, L pushes his shoulders flush on the bed, and settles himself between Light’s legs.

Light’s eyebrows furrowed in confusion. This position is—

“I can’t wait to finally have you.” L says softly, almost like prayer. “You have no idea how much I’ve pictured you laying on my sheets.”

Light’s breath hitches. He couldn’t think of a response, pressing his lips together and turning his head to the side. His face burns from the confession. He shouldn’t be surprised, he knows he’s objectively very attractive. Not even L has the immunity to his charm. But for the older man to admit it so easily…

“Shy?” L has that teasing lilt on his voice again. He runs both hands along Light’s thighs, before catching his fingers on the waistband of his underwear. Light tenses, before forcefully willing himself to relax as L rolls it off his ankles.

Light feels self conscious under L’s shameless staring. He resists the urge to curl around himself. Instead, he raises a brow at the other. “What are you waiting for?” He challenges.

L hums appreciatively before smirking at the younger man, eyes glinting.

“Spread your legs for me, Light.”

Light felt the back of his ears run hot at the order. How dare he, demanding him to expose himself like some whore . He bites his lip in humiliation. Slowly, hesitantly, he spreads his legs, while L religiously watches each motion.

“Gorgeous…” L exhales out breathlessly, hands coming up at the back of Light’s knees to push his thighs further apart. He reaches for Light’s hand, trailing kisses to his knuckles, his palm, his wrist. “You’re perfect. But you know that, right?”

Light swallows, looking at his hand over L’s, unable to maintain meeting the older man’s gaze. Something unfamiliar blooms in his chest, spreading to his belly.

L reaches behind him to pick up a bottle of lube. Light waits with bated breath as L slicks two of his fingers, before pressing up one to his hole.

It feels…weird. It didn’t feel too unpleasant, or perhaps he was expecting more pain. Light chews on his lip, while L gazes at him from above, smiling. 

“You are clean, aren’t you?”

Light huffs at the ridiculous question. “Of course.” He’s never had anything down there.

L hums in approval, pressing a second finger, and this time, Light tenses in discomfort. A twinge of pain shoots up his spine, making his eyes scrunch.

“Has it been a while for Light?” The older man asks, pumping his fingers into Light purposefully. The younger man only sniffs and turns his head away, trying to steady his breathing while the older man fucks him open.

Inside L’s brain, a theory starts to form. Something doesn’t feel right…

L is not a nice man, so he pushes a third finger in without warning. The resulting gasp and tightening of Light’s hole was expected and delightful. Light grabs at his wrist, trying to slow his hand. 

“L--wait please—“ Light stutters, eyes pinched and wet with growing tears. L takes pity, slowing down to allow him to adjust. He pushes all three to the knuckle and waits, idly rubbing inside Light’s walls.

The younger man looks so out of breath just from his fingers. L watches him closely, the minute twitches on Light’s eyelids, the tightening of his jaw, the quick rising and falling of his chest.

He presses a feather-light kiss on Light’s cheek, whispering. “You’re doing so good baby, just a bit more”. Light sends him a heated glare before exhaling deeply.

L draws his fingers out and plunges in again, seeking with a purpose. 

Light jolts with a high pitched yelp. 

Right there.

L wastes no time to jab at Light’s prostate, mean fingers bullying past the resistance of the younger man’s hole. Light is wound so tight, fearing for his mind as all thoughts dissolve from his brain, neurons working in overdrive to make sense of the intense pleasure he was feeling.

“I can’t wait to get in you. Stuff you full of my cock. Wouldn’t you like that?” L punctuates his words with his fingers, still hitting that accursed spot inside him. Light keens in reply, back arching off L’s high thread count sheets.

Stupid, stupid old man. How dare he talk to him using such crass words. Once they’re through, he’ll make sure L won’t be able to bear the shame of humiliation once Light exposes whatever dirty secret he has.

Suddenly, L withdraws his fingers out, giving Light a moment of reprieve. He relaxes bonelessly on the bed, groaning in relief. He dimly registers the sound of latex as L puts a condom on. 

But L, the bastard, is not allowing him to rest. He places his hands on the back of Light’s knees, pushing his thighs flush against his shoulders. He lets go of one to position himself against Light.

Light could only watch as the tip of L’s cock kissed his rim, trepidation coursing through his veins. It looked so thick, how was that going to fit inside h—

L’s cock breaches past his rim, and he’s seizing up, tightening involuntarily. There was no way he could have prevented the loud yelp that escaped from his throat. L keeps pushing in, groaning lowly, sinking inch by inch into Light’s warmth. Instinctively, he tries to pull away, trying to move his hips, but L only wraps his arms around his waist to pull him closer, shushing him with an apologetic kiss to his calf.

Light feels so full, like all his breath got punched out of his gut. L is not small by any means, and he’s in so deep and Light couldn’t even form a single thought. Desperately he tries to get used to the older man’s girth, but he has no idea on what he should do. 

“So tight…” L groans out breathlessly. Light thought that was the end of it, until L snapped his hips and truly, bottomed out inside him. Light let out a choked cry, nails digging on L’s back, taking in shallow gulps of air. 

L draws out slowly, noticing how Light breathed much easier as he pulled more of his length out, the younger relaxing considerably once only the tip of his cock is left.

L chuckles lowly.

He thrusts back without warning, roughly shoving his cock back inside Light’s tight little hole. Light shouts in surprise, before biting his lip in embarrassment. It’s a pitiful attempt to silence his whimpers. 

“What’s the matter, darling?” L talks through each brutal thrust he makes. “Your previous partners too small compared to me?” Light shakes his head with a sob, screwing his eyes shut. The tears that have been gathering in his eyes spill over from the action.

L falters in his movements, as if compelled by the image. Right here, on L’s king-sized bed, Light looked like the very definition of an angel.

He makes a point to drive his cock all the way in and pushes Light’s hips down, preventing him from squirming. Making him take all of his cock properly like a good boy.

He leans in to whisper to the younger’s ear. “Or because it’s the first time you’ve had a cock up your little cunt?” 

He watches as Light slowly opens his eyes, anger showing past the tears. Light squirms in discomfort, trying to push at L’s shoulders. Damn it, damn you L. Light wants to spit endless scathing words to his face.

“Answer me, Light.” He asks again, punctuating his words with a roll of his hips. The younger presses his mouth in a thin line, no doubt trying to stop all the vitriol he's been keeping from L. Light glares at him through bleary eyes. Not trusting his own voice, he nods. 

L tuts, like he’s reprimanding a child. “Use your words.” He says, tone firm.

He watches in amusement as Light grits his teeth before answering. “Y-yes.” He confesses, shamed. “I’ve never done this before”.

So fucking perfect . “There we go. Was that so hard?” L chides condescendingly. He withdraws his hips again, intent to resume the rough pace he had set prior. He wraps his arms around Light’s lower back and fucks into Light’s virgin hole.

Light throws his head back, moaning loudly, no longer trying to keep quiet. He sounds so heavenly to L, looking like a dream with his wet lashes and tear tracks on his cheeks. And L can’t, can never get enough. He cups his hands around light’s ass cheeks and lifts, yanking him towards his cock in time with his thrusts, fucking him like he’s a toy to be used.

“You take me so well. You love this, don't you?” L growls at him, but Light couldn’t respond through the thousands of lightning bolts coursing through his body. L is fucking him so deeply and thoroughly, Light swears he’s rearranging his guts, molding his body to fit around him perfectly. He can’t decide if it hurt or felt good, unable to even open his eyes to glare at the other.

L thrusts at a particular angle, and Light seizes up so violently he’s scared something snapped in his brain. He’s unaware of how loud he was being. He’s completely at L’s mercy as the older man keeps thrusting, relentlessly chasing his own release, Light’s melodious wails stirring him on like mersong.

“Light, baby, you feel so good—” L grunts out,  pistoning with wild abandon. He seeks Light’s hand again and presses a searing kiss on his palm, intertwining their hands together.

“L! A-Ahn please! Please I—“

Light cries out in pure ecstasy, coming untouched, brought to his release purely by L’s cock. L’s thrusts lose their rhythm and finally he too comes with a loud groan, seating himself fully inside Light.

They lay unmoving for several moments, catching their breaths. L peppers him sweet kisses, on his temple, his cheek, the corner of his lip. 

“Good boy.” He praises him softly. Light whimpers weakly in response.

Light whines as L pulls out, feeling the cold air on his poor, gaping hole. It takes him a few seconds to notice the slick cum that drips out of him and into the sheets.

Fuck. The condom broke.

But Light is too wrung out to care, flopping his head back on the sheets to try and gather his bearings. Shit, how did all of this happen? What was he even doing here?

L removes the useless latex off his cock and settles behind Light to wrap his arms around his waist. They lay there for a couple of minutes, resting and basking in the aftermath. Light is on the brink of falling asleep when the older man’s next words jolt him back to consciousness.

“How much did he pay you?” L whispers to his ear. He enjoys the feeling of Light tensing in controlled panic. He rubs soothing circles on Light’s stomach with his thumb.

Light bites his lip in contemplation. L didn’t seem to be angry, judging by the gentleness of his touch. And he figures there’s no use trying to get out of this mess. What could he even possibly do?

He breathes a sigh through his nose.

“Fifteen million yen.” 

Behind him, L scoffs in offense. He can feel him shake his head in amusement. 

“Only? That bastard is a cheapskate.” L moves closer to press a kiss to Light’s shoulder. Already, his hands are traveling down Light’s body, caressing the inside of his thighs.

“You will cut contact with him, understand?” L says plainly, mundanely, like he’s stating a well known fact. It’s not an order, because he knows the younger will agree to everything he says.

“I will.” Light mumbles.

L lifts his thigh, and Light groans helplessly as L buries himself to the hilt once more, jostling the leftover cum still inside. He thrusts his hardening cock a few times, the sounds coming out of Light’s hole sounding so obscene as L pushes more of the cum out of his abused hole.

“If it’s extra compensation you want, you need only ask.”

Light moans his assent, letting the older man manhandle him as he pleases. He voices no complaint as the older man takes him again, ass up and cheek pressed on the sheets.

Light never stood a chance, not even once.

Please pay respects to Light's poor bum :'(

I'm naberiuztwt on twt. Say hi

If you are deranged about Seme L+Uke Light (like you have low tolerance over the reverse, no switch), leave a comment or message me on my socials. I’ll let you in our discord server hehe.

[dukeofdelirium]

Don't you think it's funny and sad, when someone who have finished Death Note said : "I can't understand those who ship Light and L. It's just rivalry and bromance. Clearly Light is straight and L is ace"

It’s funny, sad but most of all it’s just kind of embarrassing that they didn’t pick up on any of the subtext 😂 especially when it’s so well known atp considering the majority of the fandom are lawlight shippers. like we’re a 20 year old fandom.. this is well established lol.

Light is canonically not straight 😭 he is literally repulsed by every woman that he has to form relationships with and he internally recoils from it

And I’m also so sick of idiots being like “L is autistic coded. So he has to be ace!” as if autistic ppl don’t feel sexual desire or something lol. Literally infantilizing him like it’s so stupid and insulting. I’ve also seen them say Light HAS to be ace bc he isn’t attracted to women lmao… honey he’s gay. Gay as in homosexual. What’s not clicking? The subtext exists

Also “I don’t understand why ppl ship L and Light” what is there that you don’t get about it????? The entire story revolves around their relationship lmao. It’s literally what makes DN interesting and what draws people into the story at all. Their dynamic, the way they play on each other, the way they interact is so interesting and entertaining and written in such a way that it is extremely easy to imagine it as something more. The story had an entire arc dedicated to depicting a relationship that could’ve been on more civil terms, the author confirmed Light would have worked alongside L without the DN in an AU, it’s not hard to imagine they would’ve become great friends or lovers in such a world… in fact, it’s really the only conclusion I think anyone should come to lol. Lawlight has an inherent tragic vibe to it, a particular sense of melancholy because you know they could be something more but the narrative will not allow for it to happen and yes I think Ohba wrote it like that intentionally

Anyway… I think they should make out sloppy

[grimalkinmessor]

6, 8, 15 for lawlight pleaseee!

🖤🤍

6. How do they make up/apologize after an argument?

Well, I'm certain that neither of them apologize, at least not verbally; they're both too prideful for it. I think that L makes up by giving gifts (read: bribes) when Light is angry with him, but that rarely works so he has to resort to making Light feel powerful in some way. Whether that's through revealing a secret/weakness or simply letting him top, that's up to you :3

Light is....more complicated, because while getting L to admit he's wrong is like pulling teeth, Light won't admit he's wrong at all. He's kind of incapable of it when it's something he gives a shit about. But, then, he kinda gives a lot of shits about L himself, so therein lies the problem. On smaller matters, Light can begrudgingly take 'defeat' and admit that L was right but not that he was wrong, but for everything else.... Yeah, the most you're getting out of him is a roundabout concession over something else that is far less important but still somehow ties back to the thing they were arguing about.

But L loves his prideful little monster, so he knows what to expect in the end really lmao

8. What do they love most about the other? Why?

For ME personally, L loves that Light is fucking insane. He's seen people like that before, of course, but they've never been on his level, never truly come to KNOW him like Light has, never mirrored him so exactly in intelligence and ruthlessness. Never gave him so much fun. Granted, Light's flavor of haughty insanity isn't what made L fall in love with him, but it is the biggest reason he loves him 🥰

For Light, he loves how much of a challenge L is. He never gives Light an inch, and if he does it's only to further his own goals and agenda. He's able to see through Light's lies and politeness down to the monster beneath—L is the only one who ever truly sees him. And Light can't help but love and hate him for it. But mostly love ;3

15. What songs remind you of their relationship?

I actually don't have that many for them, surprisingly! And what I do have is fairly generic, but I'll try and find some of my gems for you! :D

↑ Obligatory Junie & The Hut Friends song because I have to have at least one in every playlist and this one just fits the lawlight vibe ✨

↑ A bit of a classic one for me, again. If they beat the fuck out of each other regularly then this is my go-to song :3

↑ This one is Light to me 😌 Light descending into madness because he's realized his feelings for L and is disgusted with himself and listing all the things he hates about L, berating himself for falling in the first place all while the derangement takes over as he realizes he still has to kill him 💅✨

↑ IT'S T H E M YOUR HONOR LIKE PLZZZZZZ UNDERSTAND THIS IS THEM TO A T I CAN'T TELL YOU YOU JUST HAVE TO LISTEN 🙏🙏🙏

↑ I'm so sorry, I'm not usually a k-pop groupie but my little sisters were watching the music video for this one and it just SCREAMS lawlight I don't know how else to explain it 😭

↑ Me when L singing to Light. When L singing to Light before and after his death. wHEN NOW I'M IN YOUR HEAD AND THE RENT IS DUE—

↑ Same as above but reversed POV 🙏 Light can't get him out L is in him forever now 😌

↑ 🫣🫣🫣😳😳😳🫣 This one's pretty self-explanatory once you listen to it....

↑ Again, self-explanatory, but also Light. Light-coded. For obvious reasons. But yes ✨

....Okay maybe I lied a little on accident I had more than I thought 😅

[itwillbelonelywontit]

Half-thoughts regarding scenarios involving L watching Light sleep (as of course *any* iteration of Lawlight L would do, because it's just who he is lol)... - something involving a wet dream - creepily touching Light's hair as he stares at him - orchestrating a scenario where Light is likely to have a nightmare (scary stories before bed -- maybe about murder cases lol, or watching something scary together, etc.). So that when Light wakes up scared, L will be there to comfort him, and Light will be vulnerable and more receptive/less resistant

LOOOOVE THESE I feel like wet dream plot lines are just inherent with yotsuba arc. like theres no way that didn't happen. the wet dream to somno pipeline is real btw

HAIR TOUCHING,,, he tucks light's hair behind his ear as they lay facing each other in bed, because neither will turn their back while the other is there. such a tender gesture twisted into something unnerving and creepy. my favorite trope.

this one is so elementary school light coded... theyre having a sleepover at L's apartment and L decides they should watch a horror movie, and of course light has to agree because if he doesn't he'll be acting like a wimpy little child in front of his cool older friend. conditioning light into dependence... he really should do that. somehow warp light's mind into thinking that L is his safe space.

[undergoing-mitosis]

i've been listening to sofia isella's entire discography today cause im insane and it's crazy how well some of the songs fit with death note characters. or maybe im just too i deep in and im slowly losing my mind. anyhow

Death Note Characters as SOFIA ISELLA Songs

Light: I Looked The Future in the Eyes, It's Mine. a song about being high on the power trip of believing the near future is yours for the taking hello???????? 'they ask us, "how's it feel to be god's favourite?" we say, "we don't know, we've never known different."'

L: Cacao and Cocaine. more specifically fanon L. more specifically lawlight L. plus L feeling unfufilled if his life isn't riddled with the danger of detective work. 'would you like your heart to get attacked? would that feel better than boredom in another beige and bland cul de sac?'

Mello: Hot Gum. a slutty song with fire imagery and religious metaphors. need i say more? 'i watch us burn and fall, the heat is ten feet tall... and the flicker flames weave in through my teeth.'

Matt: Rainbow Rocket Ride. literally the mellodramattic song we've all been waiting for. with video game metaphors n references??? could something be more perfect? 'i found my joy with a runaway boy, and the cosmos is so big it won't notice we went missing'

a few more under the cut:

these next ones im less sure about but i still think they fit the vibes of the character:

Near: All of Human Knowledge Made Us Dumb. technically this is a song about the internet rotting our brains, but the general vibes of disconnection from reality and numbness, and everything making more sense in fiction and theory than reality is very near-coded in my opinion. i have always headcanoned near as a hikikomori, though less because he just doesn't want to go out and more because he physically can't function in the world. high support needs autism who???? 'and i can know every answer that's ever been known, but when everyone's together everyone's alone'

Misa: Everybody Supports Women. again a bit of a stretch, im not completely sold on it. but there are moments that make me go ugh yes. it feels like the toxicity of the idol industry along with, well, everyone around her going against misa, or at least that's how it feels to her. i think it encapsulates the isolation of her character and how people don't see her suffering cause she has a pretty face perfectly. misa is such a tragic and ultimately lonely character who lost everything she has ever loved. and she does not get enough comfort and sympathy for that."she's probably self-centred, we hate her and she's nothing, if everybody leaves her then she had it coming"

Good Boys Deserve Fun 🍒

Lawlight workplace praise kink Not sponsored by Office 365 1k words Read here or on AO3 L decides to show off his remarkable cherry-knotting skills. Light describes his equally remarkable Microsoft Excel skills. Content notes: This is unrepentantly horny but there’s no actual sexual content in it, technically speaking

Light was trying really very hard to ignore what was going on beside him.

He was working. He was trying to work. He was trying to catch the world’s most prolific serial killer, and also incidentally rescue himself from a lifetime of imprisonment while his chainmate, his supervisor, his jailer and the three foremost detectives in the world was busily knotting a large bowl of bright red cherries with his tongue.

Light stared very hard at his Excel spreadsheet. Cells, he decided, were important. Enrapturing. These particular ones were, quite literally, depicting the powers of life and death, and he had never before been so fascinated. He could hear the little plink of L’s cherry seeds hitting the ceramic bowl Watari had brought along with the cherries.

He colour-coded a row, then assigned some conditional formatting.

Plink. Plink. Plink.

Finally, at the end of his rope, he spun around to face L. L looked up, one cheek stuffed.

“What,” Light said, “are you doing?”

L stared at him, wide-eyed and disturbingly innocent. He looked very much like a lemur. As Light watched, he swallowed what Light assumed to be the meat of the fruit, then stuck out his tongue, plucked a knotted stem off of it, and tossed it into his bowl.

Plink.

“Practising,” he said.

Light died several varieties of deaths. “What are you practising for,” he said, flat.

“I’ve been occupied,” L said. “For quite some time. Stuck in here with you. People always say it’s like riding a bicycle. But I’ve never found that to be true. Well. Not with this in particular — I’ve never gone so long without, so I wouldn’t know — but with skills more broadly, you understand.”

For a solid thirty seconds, Light considered telling L that he was in fact Kira after all. He wasn’t, but it would facilitate L putting him out of his misery.

“Okay,” he said, finally. “Well. I’m happy for you. Have fun.”

He spun back around.

“Would Light-kun like to try?” L said, from beside him.

Light turned around again.

“No,” he said. “Light-kun would not. Light-kun is busy doing Ryuzaki-san’s job. Can you please fu—could you please focus.”

L reached into his bowl and plucked out a fresh cherry. “Are you sure? It might not be as difficult as Light-kun thinks.”

“I don’t care if it’s difficult,” Light said. “You’re just being really, really annoying.”

L shook the cherry. It wobbled.

“Go on,” L said. “Give it a shot.”

Light exhaled, heavily. He shut his eyes, and opened them again. “Fine,” he said. “Fine. Whatever. I played clarinet in high school. I’ll tie your stupid cherry.” He held out his hand, but L pulled the cherry away.

“Ah-ah-ah,” he said. “Only good boys deserve fun.”

“What,” said Light.

“Tell me what tricks you’ve preformed,” L said. “Tell me why Light-kun deserves a treat.”

“I — what? I’m sorry?”

L grabbed the edge of the table and pulled his rolling chair forwards. He peered over Light’s shoulder. “Ah,” he purred. “I see Light-kun is using Microsoft Excel.”

“What the fuck,” said Light.

“What has my lovely Light-kun done with Microsoft Excel to earn himself a sweet?”

“I — I added conditional formatting? To the dates of death?”

“Mm,” L said. His voice was low and liquid, coiling dark. He leaned closer. Light could feel the heat of his body, hovering just above his shoulder. “Did Light-kun utilize a formula?”

“It — yes,” he said. His voice came out shaky. “I. Yes. It uses a formula.”

“Which functions does Light-kun’s pretty little formula use?” His voice was right next to Light’s ear. Light could feel the vibrations of it beneath his breaths.

“It uses an equal-to operator and an IF function to reference a table on a separate sheet.” Light said, breathless. Then he shook his head. This was the weirdest and most bewilderingly erotic thing that had ever happened to him. His stomach felt very tight and fluttery.

“Well,” L said. “Then he’s been a very good boy indeed. Open your mouth.”

Light did. L reached over and popped the cherry in between his lips. It was stuck for a moment, smooth and sweet, and then all of a sudden it was there, in his mouth, on his tongue. Light experienced a brief and very disorienting moment of bliss, then entirely forgot what he was doing and swallowed the cherry whole, stem, seed and all.

He looked up. L was staring at him, his black eyes wide. Light couldn’t see his pupils at all.

“Light-kun has a remarkable gag reflex,” L said, calmly.

Light swallowed again. His throat hurt from the stem. “I take a multivitamin,” he said, croakily. “It’s not chewable.”

“Mm.” L stood up. He tugged very lightly on the chain and Light, disoriented and compelled by the circumstances of his being, stood with him. He felt dazed.

L looked back at him, benign, as if nothing out of the ordinary had just happened. “Well, this day has been a bust,” he said, perkily. “I’m going to call it and make us some cheese and crackers. Maybe some tea.” He paused. “Unless …”

He was very, very clearly fishing for a response. Light stared at him. L stared back at him. After a moment, undeterred, L went on. “Unless Light-kun would like to come to our bedroom and help me practise.”

“I,” said Light. “I. I think.” He looked at L, who was watching him, unruffled. “Okay,” he said, weakly. “Okay. Yes. Let’s. If you really need the help.”

L smiled at him. “Light-kun is very generous,” he said. “It’s much appreciated.” Then he coiled the chain once around his wrist, tugged very gently, and headed for the stairs.

Light glanced back at the computers, considered, then decided that he had, in fact, been very good all day. All week. Most of his life, in fact. If the very best detectives in the world said so, who was he to argue? He followed.

In two by Will Paquin is lawlight coded!!

The lyrics for anyone that doesn't know:

"We could try to go

But in the end I'd never follow

I

Was never meant to be by your side

Is this even a game

If in the end I let you kill me?

I

Was never meant to be by your side

But in the end I won't escape from the sight of you

Half of me is half of you now

I'll have to cut myself in two

You sit so high

Like a cranium that rests on the spine

Darling its alright

You do the thinking and I'll do the holding

But that game is through

Can you feel me buckling beneath you?

I

Was never meant to keep us aligned

But in the end I won't escape from the sight of you

Half of me is half of you now

I'll have to cut myself in two

I cannot escape from the sight of you

Half of me is half of you now

I'll have to cut myself in two"

[wildflowerwillow]

guys, the second half of ‘BLUE’ by Billie Eilish is lawlight coded. like. come on. i have to make an analysis about it. hear me out.

‘You were born bluer than a butterfly

Beautiful and so deprived of oxygen’

The first lines meaning, Light was born good, raised good, but always felt something was missing. He felt the world needed justice but didn’t know how to make his feelings known.

‘Colder than your father’s eyes

He never learned to sympathize with anyone’

Even though Sorichiro isn’t necessarily cruel towards him or even his family, Light finds himself comparing what he knows about himself to his father, constantly wishing to “help” with the Kira case and letting everyone around him know he wants to follow in the footsteps of his father. He knows Sorichiro won’t give up on trying to figure out who Kira is, and knows he would be heartbroken if he found out it was actually his own son, more or less.

‘I don’t blame you, but I can’t change you

Don’t hate you, but we can’t save you’

The first line ‘I don’t blame you, but I can’t change you’ is almost like L is speaking directly to Light. I imagine L knows what Light is feeling concerning justice and how the world views it. He knows Light’s thoughts and compares them to his own view of justice. The second line, ‘Don’t hate you, but we can’t save you’ is like L has never hated Light for who he chose to become surrounding his own beliefs around the justice system. ‘But we can’t save you’ could be symbolic for the fact Light has already surrendered himself to the Death Note and risked the lives of thousands in order to become someone/ something great.

‘You were born reaching for your mothers hands

Victim of your fathers plans to rule the world”

The second line of sort of self explanatory, describing that Light is not a king, a god, nor a perpetrator. He’s the victim. He was taken hostage by his mind to “rule the world”. Maybe the first line is what Light thought of himself to always be, born to be good. Born to reach for your mothers hands and love her and love everything because you were never raised in any other way. But those things were stolen by the career his father chose, to catch the wrong. It’s not that his father ruined his outlook on his entire life, but what if his father wasn’t the chief of police? He would have never met L. He would have never outsmarted half the task force and tricked L into believing he was someone he really wasn’t. He wouldn’t have wanted justice.

‘Too afraid to step outside

Paranoid and petrified of what you’ve heard’

Again, Light obviously can’t let the world know he’s Kira. He’s not meticulous, he’s afraid to let anyone he knows discover who he actually is. Because then his whole plan would fail. His thoughts and intricate attention to detail would collapse. He’s paranoid.

The next lines are like L is talking about himself:

“But they could say the same ‘bout me

I sleep only three hours each night means only twenty-one a week, now’

When I heard the second line I immediately thought of L. Who else could this song be about? The first line explores Ls past, as if people used to say the exact same things about L, about how he was paranoid to step outside, let the world know who he was, discover his idea of justice. He’s more like Light then he would like to think. Light is the only person L has ever had to compare his intelligence to his entire life.

‘And I could say the same ‘bout you

Born blameless, grew up famous too

Just a baby born blue, now’

Like I was saying, L and Light are so similar. And L knows this. He constantly sees himself in Light, even when he doesn’t want to. Light was born blameless, like L. Light is Kira, therefore he is famous. L is L, and is also famous. Light was born blue, meaning he was born with the same thoughts L was. L never wanted to be bad. L was raised to be good. Like Light was.

Maybe I’m delusional, maybe I’m crazy, but I can’t stop thinking about the coincidence. If you haven’t heard the song, PLEASE LISTEN TO IT. IT WILL MAKE SENSE.

Gonna have to write a BA fic so y'all can see my vision. But essentially what if the parallels between lawlight and meronia happened a third time. prep coded and emo coded. they want to kill each other. They did kill each other actually. They've been married for 10 years. They've been divorced for 10 years. Friends to brothers to rivals to enemies to lovers and back. Their value is strictly determined by the other, their greatest fears and desires are reflected in the other. The sacrificial lamb and the knife. The chosen and the cursed. The angel and the demon. The prodigal son and the black sheep. Both playing a predestined role for the Father. B was trained to hunt, and he followed A's scent to its bloody end and after devouring the corpse, dripping with the viscera of the only thing that ever made him feel alive, the only purpose left for B is to devour the God A died for, that they would both die for. L. A was B's first obsession and L was his last. Projection and displacement. B has never stopped hunting. He doesn't know anything else. Can anyone hear me

[bblueraven-and-fandoms14]

Those!Lawlight is so Hannibal and Will coded stop PLAYING. Especially!!! With the slow mental insanity and breakdown Light is having. That one scene where he is almost in awe of the ease in which Matsuda FEELS. The way in which he feels the sadness and remorse. The way Matsuda's face falls and creases because of the Tsukino situation and the whole "There's bad reception where he lives, I hope he's okay". Light practicing how to act like the people around him until he gets it right because he simply just doesn't feel it, almost doesn't understand is so so chilling and it's so Hannibal. Also L having feelings for this madman (not that he's sane either but by the end Will isn't as well) and killing for him but also, let's be real, for himself??? But for Light. Will coded because Will follows Hannibal to the dark side and L falls willingly to the dark side (not that he wasn’t with a foot in already but ohhhh using the death note sealed it) and skjdhshjsjss. I just like relationships like this stfu. Not that normal Lawlight isn't also Hannibal and Will coded as well but it's less so. Anways. Yes I finished Those yesterday in the year of our lord 2023 leave me alone.

[distort-opia]

Batjokes brainrot so bad that i categorize every enemies2lovers ship with them, like hmmm i wonder who hannigram would be in batjokes, who in lawlight is more joker-coded and batman-coded.

Couple: *walks next to me normally*

Me: so who's the joker and who's the batman out of the relationship? 🤔

Oh I feel you, Anon :)) These fuckers have been my blueprint since the tender age of 12, the brainrot is truly incurable.

"What do you think are x and y’s greatest personality strengths and weaknesses? Why? What do you love about their dynamic?"

So, just found this kinda ask for various ships, I was thinking to ask you, if you don't mind and have free time, of course.

For your fav ships: Lawlight, Kataang, Byler or Eremika (feel free to pick whichever you want to answer). 🌻🌷

Hmmm 🤔🤔🤔

For Lawlight, I’d say both of their strengths would be their intelligence. I’d also say a weakness for both is that they are in many ways cut off from other people, whether it’s like L who kind of does so intentionally or Light who puts on a mask for other ppl’s sake. I also think Light has a level of optimism that is extremely beneficial to him, as well as the willpower to do what he wants and to believe he is capable of achieving it, and his optimism isn’t something I see ppl mention a lot in regards to his character, but I view it as a strength. In the same vein, though, his willpower to achieve what he sets out to do is also a weakness, because he either grows bored of things easily once they are no longer challenging or he is too sure of himself. Not that I can really blame his mindset, considering he is a genius who has rarely if ever been challenged before meeting L, so it’s understandable as to why he possesses such a surety of himself. For L, I think his biggest weakness is how blunt he often is, and how it leads people to not cooperate with him, even the investigative team that work with him in canon. He is not an easily approachable individual, which is part of the reason he doesn’t interact with people in person. I also think L similarly has a drive to achieve what he wants just like Light, by any means necessary. We see it time and time again with his willingness to sacrifice people for answers, or with Light’s mock execution, etc. however, this is a double edged sword because that desire to win also creates more hostility

As for what I love about their dynamic? Oh god, I could go on and on. I like how effortlessly they read and understand one another. I like how they speak to each other in very strange almost coded ways. I like how they have this sort of affinity for one another despite being essentially opposing forces or opposite pieces of a chess game. I like that they’re enemies that don’t necessarily hate one another. I like how doomed they are by the narrative. I like that they are intrinsically tied to one another regardless of space, time or death. I like the melancholy to their relationship, the inherent tragedy of it. But most of all I like that they are the only person that has ever or will ever really know the other, and that they both know it but never really speak it. Because to me there is no greater intimacy than being understood.

For Kataang, I’d say one of Aang’s biggest strengths is his willingness to forgive. His compassion and empathy, too, but mainly his ability to forgive. A weakness for him would probably be his difficulty allowing people to show him affection, because it’s something he does struggle with in the show. He tends to bottle up emotions a lot, too, which is a weakness. For Katara, I’d say that her biggest strength is her willingness to help people in need, as well as her drive to be the best version of herself she can be. I’d say a weakness for her is that she has a lot of anger and tends to kind of explode and that said anger was almost a detriment to her.

As for what I love about their dynamic? I love that they balance one another. I love that they are each others best friend and confidant. I love that they really heal one another in a lot of ways through their relationship. I love how supportive they are of one another and how much they trust each other.

I’ll answer what I like dynamic wise about the other ships you listed :)

For Byler, I love that they are also childhood friends like kataang. I just love how much they care about one another, especially how much Mike cares about Will. It’s very sweet 🥹 I also love how easily they work together in the show, how Will really makes Mike feel genuinely loved and valued and how protective Mike is of Will.

For Eremika, I love how much Eren loves Mikasa 😭 I like how much he values her and how he goes from feeling jealous of her strength to valuing and accepting that. It was a really nice thing to see play out. I also love their whole backstory and how they met, and how much it meant to Mikasa. She’s so fiercely protective of him 😭😭😭 they make me emo

Thanks for the ask!! This was so fun :)

[lightyaoigami]

i’m sending komp!lawlight on vacation! where do they go? 👀

this is SUCH a good question i knew i could count on you. i had an answer immediately but decided to noodle on it further and in doing so realized my first answer was the best choice - i think they would go to monte carlo. i have probably mentioned this publicly at some point but i wanted the vibe of kompromat to be like if someone put casino royale and chungking express in a blender. i think komp light fancies himself a bit of a james bond and L (who's holding the purse strings) would get a profound kick out of him preening, playing baccarat, and getting blitzed on €25 vodka sodas. i also just feel like they would enjoy playing cards generally. furthermore as the self appointed clothing freak i feel they'd enjoy the opportunity to dress up. can't you imagine light in a crisp navy blue suit with a white oxford (no tie)?? i would be beside myself. L would enjoy breaking dress code everywhere he goes and getting away with it by tipping comically large amounts. this was sooo fun thank you for the question<3
