i think light yagami is "socially adept" in terms of being able to reason out relatively well what to say and do to come off as a harmless and good and polite young man who is likeable to be around. however i do not think "socially adept" (or "neurotypical") typically comes with having to preface every other normal-passing action and statement with a minor crisis of "ah shit. quick, what would i say/do in response to this if i was light yagami, a normal and nice and respectable young man?"
everyone likes to talk about him talking about kira in third person but can we acknowledge that he also talks about LIGHT in third person. i'm not adding manga panels at 3:57am but y'all know exactly which ones i mean
#light is decent at masking but he is NOT coming off as perfect to anyone who looks at him with a critical eye. like L or near#it's just that a lot of people take him at face value#he's handsome he gets top grades his dad is the police chief his family adores him girls like him etc#and he gets to skate off of that a lot until someone comes around and questions the mask#he unravels so fast once he gets closer to L. he fucks up the misa thing so badly even HE has to admit to L's face#that kira probably didn't think things through with the second kira and kind of panicked#ughhhhhhhhhhh i have so many thoughts about him. he works very hard to come off as socially competent. it's a learned skill not innate#i firmly believe there is some shit going on w light in terms of mental conditions. HOWEVER#i also believe he was relatively 'normal' up until the death note sent a lot of that shit spiralling#lots of mentally ill people live pretty normal lives it turns out! a lot of us can get by and sort of manage!#even if it means masking and coping as needed#i don't think you have to be mentally ill to react to the death note the way light did#i do think it oiled some clockwork that was already ticking though#anyway. light is socially competent to some degree because he tries to be. sometimes it backfires. sometimes he misses. normal stuff#trying to say he is objectively socially adept or inept is futile though#but ig what is death note without black and white thinking and what is the dn fandom without diving into the nuances under the surface layer

A Maid in service (Husky x Barbatos)
(This WAS gonna be MC x Barbatos but Im Barbatos trash atm  XD but i will make a MC x Barbatos in the near future hopefully! He needs more love uwu ) I’m putting a tab in case i make this too long XD and if you wish to image yourself as Husky that’s fine  ^^ 
Warning: some cursing , slightly suggestive 
Word Count: 2,600 words
It was an absolute disaster. The Prince, Diavolo , was giving me a tour of the castle as well as with Mammon, he was mainly there to keep an eye on me. We entered a room that mainly consisted of Vases, they were all beautiful and VERY fragile.
Then i noticed Mammon eyeing some of them “Don’t even think about it, Mammon”
“ay just relax, i ain’t gonna do anything!”
“yeah sure, you said that the last time too and ended up with “unknown jewelry” “
He scoffs as he rolled his eyes at me. I payed no mind to him but literally the second i turned away i heard something get picked up and an immediate crash....I slowly turn around and there i see Mammon with a vase in shards right in front of him.
“Mammon!”
“I didn’t mean to drop it!”
“What was that ?” Diavolo came towards us along with Barbatos 
Mammon Froze “shit!”
Then Diavolo looked at the broken vase. His face was blank but it slowly morphed into a displeased look. I mean i can’t blame him, that vase must of been worth a fortune , which is why Mammon tried to take it...UGH why couldn’t someone like Satan or Beel just came with me instead !?
“Mammon...” Diavolo’s voice was low 
“eep!” Mammon sounded like a mouse 
“could you explain what happened here? I’d love an explanation. “ 
I looked over and Mammon was basically shivering and at a lost of words, I’d be the same too since Dia shut off his friendly tone. I had to think of something quick , He was already in debt and it would be much worst if he were to try and pay of Diavolo , he might as well just give him his credit card! which would never happen but then i spoke out without hesitation or thought
“I-It was me! “
The three looked at me surprised 
Diavolo raised a brow “it was you Husky? “
Shit! I probably should of said something else...can’t turn back now..”Y-yes...I wanted to admire it but I thought i saw something on the vase,....I tried to wipe it off but i accidentally pushed it! “ God I hope that’s somewhat believable
The Prince was silent for a second and then sighed “ you humans can be so  clumsy some times” Good, he bought it but i knew i was still gonna be punished ..
“Even if it was by accident, I still can’t let go you lightly , Husky. You need to be punished “
I gulped 
“I was thinking of making you pay for it yourself but...maybe you can work for it “
“huh?? work for it? “ 
“yes, you can work as a maid here in the castle until you’ve paid off the debt for the vase “
I froze in shock , a-a maid!? hell no! I’ll never hear the end of it from the brothers! God, this sucks so much! but ..it’s slightly better then using my own money i guess..?
“Y-yes sir..” I regrettably said 
“Perfect! You’ll work everyday after school until 9 PM , If there are days you wish off, i will allow it but each day off is a day lost. So choose wisely. Barbatos will also be able to help you if you have any troubles, so don’t be afraid to ask! “
Barbatos has been silent and has a somewhat concerned expression , probably pitying me
I agreed to the terms. After the Tour was over , Barbatos handed me my maid uniform , which luckily was a traditional maid outfit with a long skirt. On our way home, i made sure to give Mammon an earful , i was probably worst then Lucifer at this time. He kept apologizing and said i’d probably look great in the outfit. The second he said that I knocked him on his ass. Now I just have to mentally prepare myself for my first day as a maid tomorrow 
I was so anxious when i got home , i got myself dressed and before i left , I was stopped by Lucifer. He already gave me a lecture for breaking something in the castle , what’s it gonna be now..?
“If you need help with your studies, please talk to me. You’ll be busy as a maid and it might not give you enough study time.”
“oh..sure, thanks “
He nods “ Barbatos should be on his way to get you soon “ 
“? he’s picking me up? I thought i had to walk there” 
“just be grateful that Diavolo is making you walk to the castle from here..” 
He had a point.. the Castle wasn’t too far but it was far enough for a long walk. I waited outside and soon a carriage came by. The door opened and Barbatos came out 
“Good Evening Miss Husky.” He held the door open for me
“Good Evening..” I walked inside and he close the door after he entered and then we were on our way to the castle.
 It was Quiet for the majority of the ride.It somewhat made me uncomfortable especially since it was Barbatos. Not that he’s bad, I’m just not familiar with him is all. I guess i will be soon since I’ll be basically helping him with chores and such.
“How are you this evening?” He asked suddenly
I got a little shook but i quickly responded “I’m f-fine! Just  a little nervous “
“I assume you’ve never done anything like this before? “ he gave a light smile 
“no ..not really, I mean the closest thing to this is cleaning for my Grandma but it was mainly to help her since she didn’t have enough energy..”
“just like how Mammon broke the Vase and you took the blame? “
!! What?..how did he...how does he know that? I kinda panicked for a second but started questioning it. If he knew, why didn’t he say anything before? Why did he let this happen? 
“..If you knew..why didn’t you say anything? “
“well My lord would of gravely punished Mammon ..not just paying him back. He would of given him something then death since he’s attempted to steal so many times...but if you took the blame, he would be fine and you’d basically get  a slap on the head “
huh..so in other words, he wished not see Mammon punished because of his stupidity. I dunno how it works for punishing them but he gave me chills when he mentioned worst then death, i can’t even image that..We finally arrive at the castle 
“so..does Diavolo know? “
“no. If i were , you’d both be punished , you wouldn’t like that know would you? “
I only did this ti protect Mammon, so i guess i do..All I do is nod and head our way in. My first day wasn’t so bad expect with some of the staff trying to get under my skin..They were rude and some of them shamed me for being a human and being totally reckless. It really brought my mood down. It was recovered when  i was in the kitchen. Barbatos was already there making desserts. I Heard from Beel that he makes the best food in all three realms, As much as I was curious, i had to get back to work but He stopped me 
“Hello Husky” 
“oh!..Hey Barbatos”
“Would you mind helping me with the batter? I need to get these ready soon and extra hands would be nice “
“oh, of course” I set my cleaning stuff down and helped
I have baking experience before, I lived with my grandma for a while and i would always bake sweets with her , so this wasn’t really foreign to me Besides some the ingredients. Barbatos took notice how i didn’t struggle 
“you have a thing for baking as well? “
“not really. Im just used to it from when i lived with my Grandma. We mainly made Cookies and brownies” 
“interesting. maybe you could show me some recipes from the human world , I’d love to try some recipes with you” He looked cheerful and smiled 
He ..actually looked really cute when he smiled, the more i see it , i blushed slightly 
After making some of the batter and letting them bake, I noticed that took up some time 
“oh no! I better-” but then my arm was grabbed 
“My lord doesn’t mind you being here as long as you’re at least working” he reassured me , he could see i was stressed 
“oh ..well...I can stay as long as needed. “ i said firmly 
“good, i actually wanted you as a taste tester as well.”
“huh? but how would i know if it’s good or not? “ I said that since the ingredients in Devildoom are so unique and who knows what devil’s taste are like to what’s good or not.
“oh , don’t worry, i actually have a bit of human ingredients here, i was hoping to make some cakes , maybe some brownies as well, perhaps? “ 
Just the sound of hearing human world cake or brownies sounded good and if his skills are as good as people say they are, i can’t wait! 
“Sure, maybe we can make a 2 layer cake? “ 
He agreed and soon we started making a cherry maraschino cake , he didn’t struggle much , it was only the ingredients that he wasn’t used to. It was so funny to see him try a maraschino cherry, his face made many different reactions since it was a flavor that blasted when it touched your tongue. I explained that these were mainly used in alcoholic drinks or be turned into candy. He was quite interested and curious to learn more about certain ingredients as well 
“Hey, shouldn’t these other desserts -”
“oh the second we finished, they were headed to the dining hall. I don’t need to deliver them myself , all we had to do is get them done” 
“oh good, I was scared of taking up too much of your time..” 
he smiled “don’t worry about that, I rather enjoy your company “ that really made me blush. It felt nice to be wanted especially since i came here, I’ve been treated like a burden, intentional or not, it was nice that that one person outside of the brothers likes me.
We continued to bake , after the cake was done, it tasted so magical! The sweetness of the cherries and how soft the cake felt! No wonder he was the best, i should save a piece for beel since he liked human world food too! Then i noticed that Barbatos stared at me
“hm..? is something wrong ?” he made me a little worried 
Then, he got close to my face. Oh my god- what is he doing then..he kissed my cheek 
*Husky.exe has stopped working* 
Did..did he really just..KISS MY CHEEK- WHAT- WHY-
I was so flustered and blushed i couldn’t even speak and he just chuckled , thank you so much for laughing at my tomato looking self.  
“My apologies, you had cake on your face “
YOU COULD OF JUST TOLD ME “No no it’s fine!” 
“I couldn’t help myself..I was curious what you’d taste like..~ “ 
All i did was stood there, mentally freaking out , how do i respond to that!? more important why do i like it!? quick say something!
“w-why you know that if you actually kissed me..?”
His eye widened in surprise but then He smirked “oh?~”
why.did.i. just. say. THAT- what was i thinking?! I quickly looked around for an excuse to leave and i noticed the time, it was closing to 9. Thank god! 
“oh would you look at the time! I have to get ready to go ! “ Then i quickly left before he could get a word in. 
I finished up anything that i could do quickly and headed to the entrance but was stopped by Diavolo
“Husky!”
“! H-hello your highness” 
“ I heard you helped Barbatos with the sweets today ! You made the sweet hell chocolate cake right? “
I nod and he lightens up “It was amazing! I had no idea you were so skilled in baking! you must bake some more when you can! “
“Im glad you ! It kinda makes me happy to bake..it kinda reminds me of home.”
“well you have permission to help Barbatos again if he asks, you two can discuss it on the carriage”
“huh what do you-” then i stopped. FUCK- i forgot he’s the one who brought me here, so of course he’d be the one to take me home. Diavolo looks at me confused and i reassure him that i was fine, he waved me me off and I saw Barbatos near the carriage . I felt nervous about this time , would it be silent like before ..I’m not sure what will happen. I enter and he soon joins me but,,he sits next to me this time. The first time he sat across, i guess he’s more comfortable with me but that doesn’t change what happened between us. 
“How was your first day?” he asked, not looking at me 
“It was fine. for the most part “ 
“oh? why most? “
“...it’s not too much, just some of the staff gave me a little bit of a hard time.”
“...” 
His silence is kinda giving me chills with his face looking a little pissed 
“L-like i said it was fine mostly! It was better with you! “ I halted at that sentence , shit! that was suppose to be internal- 
His face soften after hearing that and he looked directly at me “That’s nice...you made my day as well.” 
My heart skipped a beat, my face really blushed , it was too noticeable, Barbatos took note of that , he seemed to be closer now. 
“you know..I could bake with you everyday if you want..~ Diavolo wouldn’t mind..~” 
The Idea was innocent but his tone wasn’t , Im sure he’d really want to bake with me but Im sure he has other intentions now after that kiss. Did he feel like this before that..? It’ been 3 months since I've been here. Then I noticed how we’re basically close to being face to face , he had his finger and thumb under my chin 
“h-huh-” then he lightly kissed me “ hm!”As much as it was too much..i didn’t want him to stop either.
He stops “ I hope we’ll have more interesting days like this in the future~ “
Before i could say anything else, the carriage stops. We’re back at the House of Lamentation, Barbatos gets up and opens the door for me “you should get going “ he smiled 
I was still for a moment but then  i got up and left the carriage , before i went inside , he grabbed my hand and gentle kissed the top of it. I was even redder then  i was. 
“Have a good day, My Lady~” he closed the carriage when he entered back 
My heart was beating so hard the rest of the night and i couldn’t stop thinking about what happen...did i really like Barbatos..? It was so hard to deny it  and just thinking about him made me blush. I got into my room and got changed into comfy causal cloths and laid flat on my bed , and hoped to relax. Now I’m excited to see him again...
(I hope you guys enjoy this! I had fun doing it! Suggest som stuff if you want something like this in the future!)

( i haven’t even done his theme yet but i was just so excited to write joon’s intro that i had to do this before anything else !! )
hello ! i’m beeba, 19, in pst !! it’s lovely to be back, and i’ve brought with me a new, debatable-if-improved version of my baby boy yoojoon. things have gotten a bit darker and twistier with him this go-around but i can assure you that somewhere deep.....deep........deepdeepdeep down he’s still a soft boy. HENNYWAYS ! under the cut you will find a bio, headcanons, and wanted connections !! 
give this a like if you’re interested in plotting uwu. i’ll hit you up in the dm’s, or you can add me on discord @ namjoon’s “brrrrrrt” in cypher 4#2323
☾*✧・゚:*「 kim seokjin. cismale. he/him. 」did you know that there’s a wizard in haneul known as moon yoojoon? they have been living here for the past  eleven years and is a strategist for the hyeon mu. they are currently twenty seven and was a student at crocus institute of higher magic in the house nightshade. i heard that they are known to be unyielding, but worry not ! i heard they are also very selfless too. remember to stay out of trouble, the ju jak are lurking around every corner !
( tw for familial death, alcoholism, abuse, violence, murder, and gang activity )
BIO: 
yoojoon was the youngest of four boys born ( accidentally ) to moon hojoon and moon jisoo, in the small town of punggi. 
his mother was a tarot card reader/fortune teller who worked out of their home and his father a retired duellist for the hyeon mu. they lived off of his mother’s meager income and his father’s military pension that the hyeon mu provided since he was honourably discharged after a combat incident that left him traumatized.
his birth was considered a hindrance to his father more than anything else. another mouth to feed with the little they had. 
hojoon was a very heavy drinker, using it as a coping mechanism to deal w/ his trauma. he often took his anger out on his sons and wife --- rarely laying a hand on them, but often yelling so loudly the house would shake.
yoojoon had a very close relationship with his mother and his eldest brother saejoon who was twelve years his senior. his two middle brothers mostly brushed him off out of fear of their father.
he didn’t begin showing signs of magic until he was five, and his mother was worried for the first few years that he was a squib, due to all his brothers showing signs of magic in infancy. 
the first thing yoojoon ever did magic-wise was make a bush of azaleas in their back garden bloom out of season. his entire family celebrated his feat that night, even his father.
as he grew older and began to attend school, he decided he wanted to be a duellist like his father was. he did well in all his classes in the hopes that when the time came he could move to seoul and attend crocus to receive proper training
was a very happy, bouncy little kid with a love for flowers. could most often be found out in the garden with his mother as she tended to the seasonal blooms. 
had a knack for potion making from an early age. his mother always told him that he should pursue a career in potion making but he adamantly refused because he wanted a manly job. 
when yoojoon was ten, saejoon left punggi for seoul, with plans of joining a vigilante resistance group disassociated from the hyeon mu. they considered themselves freedom fighters who sought to bring an end to the ongoing war between the magi and the ju jak through methods such as peaceful protests and attempts at reconciliation. 
their father was more than displeased. he told his eldest son that if he did leave he would never be welcomed back, but he left anyways with the promise of writing to yoojoon as often as he could about his “ adventures in the big city. ”
tensions in their household only rose after his brother left. his father drank more, his mother threw herself into her work. his two remaining brothers left for school, leaving him alone to handle his parents. 
saejoon never ended up writing him, and yoojoon began to resent him for leaving.
at fourteen, yoojoon received new that his brother had died at the hands of the ju jak --- “ another tragic casualty of war ” as the letter stated.
the two years in between his brother’s death and him starting at crocus are kind of a blur for him. lots of heated arguments with his father over the nature of saejoon’s death that would turn into physical altercations, nights spent sobbing silently in saejoon’s empty bedroom. he was a whole ass mess, with good reason, and acted accordingly.
when he was sixteen he finally moved to seoul, having come to terms as best he could with saejoon’s death. he realized he couldn’t put his life on hold to continue mourning, and that that was not what his brother would have wanted for him.
he was put in nightshade upon arriving at crocus, and despite words of encouragement from his professors to go into potion making he stayed firmly on track towards becoming a duelist. he was now more determined than ever --- hellbent on avenging his brother’s death and taking the ju jak down one by one.
a year into his education he was approached by a group of boys who were apart of the same vigilante group his brother had been in, called the faceless ones. wanting to follow in his footsteps and aide the war effort, yoojoon joined.
attending school falls second to attending group meetings in a grungy warehouse downtown. it seems innocent enough at first --- passing a bottle of soju around a fire, sharing stories of the ones lost to the ju jak. but as time goes on and tensions between magi and humans grow further, things become more serious.
the boys don masks with magi emblazoned on the front to cover their faces as they wreak havoc in the human-populated areas of the city. they lights cars on fire, vandalize businesses, and some go as far as attacking innocent people --- ju jak or not. it takes some impressive mental gymnastics on yoojoon’s part to justify the actions of his peers, but he manages when he’s got enough liquor in his system. 
his knack for potions makes him the ideal candidate for making simple weaponry --- pipe bombs, pouches full of noxious herbs, tinctures that when applied to the skin melt it clean off the bone. but working behind the scenes wasn’t what he joined to do. he joined to kill ju jak.
and so he does. indirectly at first --- more of a mastermind than an executioner --- but growing more bold as time goes on. the first time he takes a life with his own hands he’s just turned seventeen, and he hates the rush it gives him.
he attends school during the day and uses the skills he learns to kill by night. he is methodical, unlike the others, careful. he plans his attacks for days before carrying them out, and enacts his plans with professional ease. he becomes well known to ju jak and hyeon mu alike --- and both groups want him caught.
however, one poorly executed plan leads to him falling into the hands of the hyeon mu, and they give him a choice. he’s either to join them as a duelist --- because his talents, though being used poorly, cannot simply be thrown away --- or rot in prison for murder.
it’s an easy choice, and when he’s just shy of eighteen he’s officially a member of the hyeon mu.
as far as rookie duelists go, he’s considered one of the most talented. his prior experience ( though they don’t like to admit it ) gives him a leg up on the others his age, and he finds himself climbing through the ranks quickly. 
he figures if he can’t change the way the magi deal with ju jak as part of a rebel organization, he may as well work on it from the inside. 
he’s an accomplished duelist with a very high number of confirmed kills and arrests.
by twenty three he’s no longer a duelist --- they prefer to use his talents in careful planning over his manpower. he’s appointed to the committee of strategists that work closely with the leaders of the hyeon mu to gather information on the ju jak and plan out attacks accordingly. 
he’s frickin amazing at it. it’s truly what he was always meant to do, and he makes triple what he did as a duelist without needing to be in the field.
now, at twenty seven, he’s now the head strategist with a small committee working underneath him.
he rly out here tryna revolutionize the way the magi and the hyeon mu deal with the ju jak, because he feels as though he has more relevant field experience than many of the higher ups who have simply been observing this war rather than taking part in it.
truly believes that they could be doing more, but for whatever reason are not. in his eyes the hyeon mu is not functioning at it’s full capabilities, and their efforts are sitting stagnant as the ju jak grow in number. 
the most anti-government government employee you will ever meet. often accuses the president of sitting on their ass with their security detail to protect them while the common people are terrorized.
however, as much as he calls out and openly bashes the hyeon mu’s methods, they can’t afford to lose him because he rly has made a ton of progress and at this point with the amount he knows he’s irreplaceable, and too much of a liability to let go of.
so now he sits in his cushy office on the top floor of a gorgeous building, overlooking the city and planning various ways to absolutely pulverize the ju jak at whatever cost.
HEADCANONS & RANDOM FACTS:
still very close with his mom !! she often comes and stays in the city with him, and he spoils the hell out of her :’)))
he has a familiar: a fat, orange cat named calcifer whom he adores endlessly.
is a hobby potion maker. it relaxes him.
loves a good vodka soda w/ lime.
while he isn’t very social, he loves to attend high society parties because it gives him an excuse to wear one of his many fancy suits.
quite a snarky asshole, will give you shit regardless of your position or status.
enjoys eating sticky rice.
public speaking is like.....a weird talent of his ? he absolutely loathes it, but he’s read in newspapers that he inspires the common folk with his passion so he just kinda rolls with it.
is rly just out here trying to make life better for the average magi. he doesn’t do what he does because he’s endlessly loyal to the hyeon mu --- he does it for the people.
basically lives in his office because he’s Always Working. he has like, a kettle and a hotplate and a mini fridge, blankets, a bed for calcifer ( who he often brings to work with him ) and all sorts of random crap that he’s accumulated to make the space as homey as he can.
keeps fresh bouquets of azalea’s in both his office and his apartment because they remind him of home and of his mom uwu
very messy, misplaces things within seconds of picking them up i swear to god. has defs lost important paperwork and spent hours scrambling to find it, just to see he placed it on top of a cupboard by accident when he got up for a snack.
has ptsd from his time in the faceless ones as well as his time as a duelist in the field. he frequently has nightmares because of this.
WANTED CONNECTIONS:
literally anything bc im a thirsty thot
other ex-members of the faceless ones: 
the relationship between members was a very familial one, and it’s very likely that other members were apprehended and given the same ultimatum as joonie. whether they’re now in prison or decided to join the hyeon mu, it’s very likely joonie tried to stay in contact.
current members of the faceless ones:
this connection would be a bit more messy. they would probably consider joonie a traitor or a sell-out and feel very betrayed by his actions.
his assistant:
idk why he’d have one.....but i want him to !!! we would obvs flesh out the actual aspects of it but i just think it’d be cute lol. playin mini-office-basketball ? gorging on donuts ? arguing over the filing system ? yes please !!!
committee members:
other strategists who work with joonie !! they could be chummy coworkers, rivals, u name it !!
other members of the hyeon mu:
MORE COWORKERS !!!!!!!!! someone pls gimme an angst plot where joonie slept w/ someone from a diff department and now they make awkward eye contact when they pass one another in the halls thank u
AND ON THAT NOTE !! ex-hookups:
he would have been much to involved in his work to ever have an actual relationship, but he defs enjoys a good fling every now and then and probs got down and dirty with a lot of people
current hookups:
he still gettin down and dirty with a lot of people...........lmao
friends:
even this tragic annoying man gotta have friends ig. someone to play billiards with and force him to go out once in a while.
enemies? rivals? anything angsty?
IDC WHAT IT IS !!!! JUST GIVE IT TO ME !!!!
anyways that concludes this mess of an intro. it’s 6:17am so please excuse any errors or inconsistencies, i’ll fix them once i’ve rested lmao. can’t wait to write with you all !!! if u read all of that bless your heart. peace n love xoxo, can’t wait to see u  in my dms.
