Summary
Light’s desk catches on fire during the placement of L’s illegal surveillance cameras in the Yagami household, burning up the Death Note early on. Light forgets everything, the killings suddenly stop, and Kira fades away from the public consciousness but never from L’s. Six years later, Ryuk returns to Earth with a new Death Note for Light, now an agent in INTERPOL, ready for Round 2. L’s ready too.

Catch Perfect
The very first long Lawlight fic I’ve read and definitely worth it, was rewatching deathnote between gaps in reading this over the past few days with a friend and this had me somewhat confusing fanon with canon because I’ve been thinking about it so often - I’d definitely love to reread at some point. Freaky and so sweet, and as much as I really hate Lawlight in canon, fics like these make me enjoy these two geeks .*+

Summary
L walks through the rows of headstones—bodies abandoned by their souls—spotting a familiar grave. He smiles sadly to himself, clenching the bouquet of lilies in his hand, paper crinkling from the force.
"Hi," L stood in front of the headstone, looking at the picture. Light looks– looked divine. His greeting was met with expected silence.
-
In simple words - L visited Light's grave after he caught Kira.

Do you ever regret it? L asked him once. Surrendering to me?
He doesn’t.
He doesn’t regret any of it: confessing to being Kira on the rooftop, giving up the Death Note, moving halfway across the world to solve cases with the world’s greatest detective. Sharing the title of L, sleeping in the same bed even without the excuse of handcuffs, being woken up at the crack of dawn by his insomniac of a partner and having his favorite sweater stolen at least once a week.
No, he doesn’t regret it.
He doesn’t regret it at all.
Not when he gets to experience mornings like these.

“Fuck,” Mello whispers. His hands shake against Near’s chest.
“Good boy,” Near repeats, experimental, smiling as he watches Mello’s eyes flutter shut again. “The very best.”
A small frown tugs at Mello’s lips. Near tries to kiss it away, but it lingers.
He still has work to do.

and maybe he would be able to wait until the day’s end except Gevanni keeps getting all up-close to Near to show him stuff, and Mello is beginning to vividly imagine fucking Near on the floor next to his bloodied corpse, which is an indication that the issue has gotten fairly severe.
Honestly kinda hot
It is in the interest of his own health and everyone else’s safety that Mello makes the choice he does. It’s a little underhanded to put an urgent one-on-one meeting request on Near’s calendar in the singular conference room approved for discussion of classified information, but these are desperate times.
Lmao incredible
If Near gets sick of him, and decides he doesn’t want him anymore, Mello doesn’t know how he’d survive the fallout. There’s a real possibility he just fucking wouldn’t.
Oh my goodddd that is. Cute.
Nghh this was great i love how insane he is lol

Summary
Light and L are dead, only Misa and Rem remain in the aftermath of the greatest serial murder in history.
-
"Of course.", Rem said simply. "I'll follow you anywhere". Rem felt her heart surge with affection at this. This was something she could do for her at least. Be with her always.
No matter what tragedy befell Misa next, no matter the torment her heart has to endure, no matter how boring the hell around her got, Rem's steady presence and kind heart would always be there.
"I love you, Misa.", Rem said with the devotion of a knight.

Summary
Two years after the end of the Kira investigation, Near reluctantly agrees to investigate a series of murders in Denver. What he's expecting is a dull, uninteresting case that he'll solve before the plane has even landed. Instead, he gets a killer who seems to have no rhyme or reason to their actions yet somehow evades capture anyway and still has time to send him cryptic messages with horrible grammar.
Mello has been lying low for the past two years, but when he hears about the serial murders, he heads to the city to investigate. Normally, he wouldn't bother, but there's something different about this case— Near may be in more danger than he realizes.
Not that Mello actually cares. That would be ridiculous.

Summary
“You don’t know that you’re disinterested until you try it and see.”
He had used Near’s own way of thinking against him and much to Near’s chagrin, it worked. “I suppose that is true.” he said, defeated, eyes glancing to the side to avoid Mello’s.
Mello leaned his face in closer, trailing a finger underneath Near’s chin and gently turning his face upwards. “So let’s try it, then.” He reached his other hand behind Near, wrapping his arm around his waist and pulling him closer. “If you don’t like it, I’ll never bring it up again.”

Summary
Ten full days after Near had cruelly and callously broken Mello's heart over email— over email, for God's sake— Mello began to experience what could only have been demonic possession or divine inspiration.
Or maybe that was just the whiskey and the wishing.

In which Mello pines and plots to win Near back with a pizza and a few bad lies.

Mello began to experience what could only have been demonic possession or divine inspiration.
i fckin adore this sentence lmao
This might have been easier to process if not for the fact that Mello very clearly was not some random coworker, and obviously deserved more— something less corporate-sounding, something personal and sincere.
thats not corporate sounding that sounds like a fuckin divorce goodbye holy shit bruh
damn
It wasn’t until he received an incredibly confused and disgruntled reply from some guy named Neal that he realised he’d mistyped the email address, and he was too mortified to forward it to the real Near.
im fckin crying whsadfgbholy fuck ahahahahahahhahahahhahhaohmy god
In his defence, he had been drunk out of his mind, and the small white object looked suspiciously like Near in the dark, through blurred vision
holy fuck thats another level of down bad entirely
If Mello was going to make this work, he had to look casual about it, like he just so happened to order the wrong size and flavour and just so happened to decide on a whim that he would visit his ex-rival-and-colleague-and hookup to share it.
spectacular. fucking amazing.
Near was gazing at him with so much plain fondness and affection that it seemed impossible for him to have sent something so callous and cold. This sweet creature could never.
It had to have been that one employee of his, Mello realised as he stroked the back of Near’s neck with tender, light touches. Gevanni.

Summary
In the span of a few weeks, Mello and Near’s rendezvous had quickly become a regular part of Near’s work day; Mello would suggest a time and place, and Near would always agree. Near was perfectly content with the arrangement, as long as his employees didn’t find out.

Unfortunately, Mello had the bright idea to sit Near up on the document glass, which resulted in a broken printer and a disrupted make-out session. Needless to say, the printer excuse was not going to work this time.
ATSHFSAFGSDFSDFV beautiful idiots <3
Near exhaled and switched back to the tab with the security footage, only to see the reflection of Rester’s eyes in the dark background, staring directly at the monitor.
hey you dont read other ppls screens!! thats homophobic.
“Sir, I spoke to Gevanni recently. We both have a few concerns about your private meetings with Mello.”
hes you boss he can fuck his employees and coworkers whenever he pleases fuck you
“I understand, but this is out of concern for your safety. Mello is an incredibly dangerous and volatile individual. I don’t think it’s safe for you to be alone with him.”
AHAHHAHAHHAHAHAH oh my god
his employees are scared of him
oh my fuck
thats so funnyahahahhaahasdafgngfd
“With all due respect, sir, he aimed a loaded gun at your head only a year ago.”
and yet nears still here in one piece and alive. isnt that the best showcasing that mells fine??
“Is everything alright in there?” Rester called out.

Five hours after telling Near point-blank that he hated his guts and wished he would drop dead, Mello would be rolling his eyes and stepping aside so that Near could shuffle past him into the dark of his bedroom.
Relationships goals
Near knocking on Mello’s door in the middle of the night, claiming to be afraid of the storm, should be off-putting for his age. It should not be endearing. It sure as hell shouldn’t be reassuring.
Awwww <3
It isn’t natural to feel so much heat and gravity towards one person, and it’s better that they aren’t fueling that anymore.
Me when i dont believe in love because im stupid
Sometimes he takes them back to his hotel room and occasionally manages to say the right name while fucking them.
XDDDDDDDDD
FThere is no end in sight. It’s a little past midnight, and he didn’t sleep well yesterday. He’s fucking exhausted; his brain isn’t functioning at peak capacity. A lot of really bad ideas are starting to sound pretty reasonable.
I love him
He can’t wake Near up and try to seduce him, but the longer he lays here doing nothing, the likelier it is that he snaps and does just that.
Hes so fckin funny
The only solution he can think of is to somehow get himself off without disturbing Near’s sleep. It’s a dubious move at best, but the only one he can think to make.
Or go to the bathroom lol
But it isn’t that simple, because Near shouldn’t trust him. He just doesn’t know any goddamn better. If Near wants to have sex, it should be with someone who doesn’t want him the way Mello does.
Christ on a stick what ks this guys problem
Every thought falls right out of Mello’s head. His brain turns to fucking static.
:3 :3 :3 :3 :3 :3 :3 :3 :3
Near is having a wet dream. He’s asleep, and he’s hard, and he’s unconsciously rubbing himself off on Mello’s body. Mello is equal parts thrilled and horrified. He feels like such a goddamn creep.
Seriously dude cmon XD
hes so silly and tormented its cuteIt isn’t going to take much to get him off with Near humping him and whimpering pathetically like that. He wonders what Near is dreaming about.
Truly a mystery that will never be solved
Without a warning of any kind, Near’s hand skates down his chest and joins Mello’s own inside his fucking pants. His fingers are cool on Mello’s knuckles. Mello stares, uncomprehending, for several seconds before startling.
JSJJSJSJJDNSBSNDJDJSJSJSJSJSJJSHSHSJJSJJSSJJJJSJSJJSJJSJSJJS
fckin. Brain error. Incredible.
Mello is pretty sure he has to kill himself. It feels like the only reasonable way to move forward from something like this.
Honestly real
“Miha,” Near says. “I waited so long. I thought you liked me.”
AAJAHAHAHSHSHAHSHHSJSHSHSHSHHSJSJSBDBSHDHDNBSBSBSBDDBDBSBSDDBDVDGDGDGGDGSHSHSHSHSHDGGDGDDGDGDGDGDFGGFGDHFFHFHFHHDHDHSHSHSHDHHDHDHDHGFGGFHDHDHHRURHEHEHSHDHHFHFGHHFHFFHHDHDHHDHDHDHEHDHHDEHEGSHSHSHSHSHSHDHRHURURHRHRHDHFHFHFHDHDBBFBFBDHDHDHDHDHSHSHSHSUGJXHXBZFBZJXFFJZBFJKGDKDGGKDJZFXJFJZFJZJDXJJXFDJJXF
Once, when he was twelve and Mello was fourteen, Near had tried to kiss him. Mello wasn’t kind about it.
*bites him*
Near has been playing a fucking game with him. He’s not half as innocent as he pretends at being.
Jsjsjsjsjsjsjsjsjsjsjsjjsjsjs
I cant even decide if hes right or not. Or how much. Amazing.
That doesn’t mean he should be allowed to win without contest.
I am gonna kick yuo in the face
His feigned naiveté has slipped. The way he regards Mello now is predatory.
Hohohohoholyshit ohmygod
Hes like this. Smol cat that has the highest kill rate of all carnivores and looks like a plushie.
God help him. He tried. He didn’t try very hard, or very well, but if Mello wasn’t supposed to have Near, then the world shouldn’t have made it so easy and so tempting to take him.

Summary
Once she reaches the first floor and steps out of the elevator, Near hears a voice floating down the hall. It’s a woman’s voice, so it must be Lidner, but the pitch of it and the cadence of speech seems painfully similar to the way Mello talked, even without being able to hear the actual words. The closer she gets, the more it sounds like her dead lover, and Near curses how cruel her mind’s tricks are. She has to grit her teeth and breathe in deep to get herself to push through the door into the main office, feeling almost nauseous with grief again already.
A blonde woman in a red winter jacket stands with her back to Near, but she turns when the toy in Near’s hand clatters to the ground.
Mello’s eyes are tired, underlined by dark circles, but she grins. “Hey, Near.”

Mello, she thinks, eyes still-dry and now-shut, can you see me from where you are? Do you know how much I love you? Did you hear that we won? That you won? Are you happier now?
Auuuuuuhhhhhh
She wakes up in bed at three in the morning and has a brutally brief instant of ignorance before she recalls that Mello is dead and nothing will ever be okay again.
Waking up from grief is one of the worst feeling in the world
I want to hug herNgl i can never read angst without comfort at the end cuz this is like. Ouch. Pain. I want to see her happy again. Something something theres probably a psychological word for this. Some sorta catharsis idk.
AAAUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨<3
Mello seems to feel the same, if the force of her grip on Near’s waist is anything to go by, but when agent Lidner clears her throat pointedly, they do finally break the kiss, though neither of them let go of the other.
This has to be so funny to watch for them lmao
“You’re okay,” Near says, distraught at how broken Mello sounds and how ill-equipped she feels to comfort her. “You’re safe now. It’s okay.”
Auuuuuhhhhhh i like this line
“We’ll go on vacation, together,” Mello says, eyes narrowing, “and we’ll move somewhere, together. And no, I’m not asking you, I’m telling you. Together is the only option.”
Id say get married but. Theyr basically are already. So.
It’s very like Mello, Near thinks, to make a declaration of devotion sound like a threat.
Ajahahahshshshshs yes peak amazing
matt's fine btw she just got out of the hospital and is playing DS downstairs while sneakily checking out halle. BYE
THANK YOU i was wondering about it <3
In my head they go to croatia for vacation because i did that around bingereading your fics and spend the entire time hallucinating them both there and i think it did to me what rome did to (that one fucking old guy i dont remember the name of that went to rome and wrote a journal about it and i had to read it for school). Mello belongs to croatia in my brain now. Ok thats all good fic like always peak
