    Summary

    When Rem kills L, she does not expect to survive. Which is to say, she does not expect to find herself back at the start of the day she killed him. When L dies in Light's arms, he doesn't expect to find himself back at the start of that same day, either.

    Summary

    “Satisfied?” Light grumbles into the phone, shutting his laptop with a soft click, and padding his way over to his bathroom. As he stands, L’s gentle voice crackles over the speaker.

    “No, never.”

    “Predictable,” he sneers, running his toothbrush under the tap water, “So, then, what would keep you satisfied? If anything.”

    There’s shuffling on L’s end, before he says, fluid, like a paintbrush over wood, all too easy, like it’s the easiest thing in the world, “You.”

    The Kira case wanes in 2004, and eventually goes cold. L departs from Japan, and five years go by. Until, one night in 2009, L tells Light that the Kira case is being reopened, and L wants to help acquit him before he is inevitably caught. But, like always, there is a catch that comes with L's favour, and now Light is stuck playing teacher in a house full of genius orphans while mending the rift that had blossomed between himself and L.

    Favorite lines:
    *His forehead presses into L’s chest through his shirt, and feels his heartbeat. He counts in his head. It’s also sixty. Their heartbeats are the same. They share the same fate, like L had said in that dream.
    *I want to keep you. I have to. If I let you go again, the way I did when leaving Japan, I will tear the universe apart.
    *He has read this poem, he has thought about this poem as he lathered shampoo in his hair, he has thought about this poem as he brushed his teeth, he has thought about this poem as he lay awake in bed, scornful, mournful, and irrevocably in love with the man in the driver’s seat.
    *Light has brown eyes, Mello has to remind himself, Light has yellow-brown eyes. His eyes are not red. It’s a trick of the sun. His eyes are brown. “Good job,” Light says, and cannot help the curl of his lips into a wide grin. His teeth are normal. His teeth are normal. His teeth are not sharp. His eyes are not red.
    *L does not want to die any more. He does not want to lose Light. If he dies, Light will not follow. The bells do not toll for the two of them.

    Summary

    “I’ll have four pumps of caramel, four pumps of peppermint, four pumps of blueberry, four pumps of strawberry, four pumps of lavender, and two pumps of peach. And one pump of toffee.” Ryuzaki glances at Light with what almost looks like remorse. “And one pump of blood orange.”

    How about I shove a blood orange up your ass, you abomination-drinking cunt? “Of course. Anything else?”

    Misa invites Light’s least-favorite customer to her birthday party. Unfortunately, Light also thinks the guy is really, really hot.

    Favorite lines:
    *While taking in his nemesis, Light imagines how it’d feel to rip his throat out with his teeth, which indicates he is extremely unbothered, unaroused, and normal.
    *He takes Light’s face in his hands and gazes at his mouth in a way that makes the room feel several degrees hotter.
    *Sure, Light has thought about it. Just once or twice or maybe three times.

    Summary

    “Oh, spare me. So what? You’re not Kira, you’ve just had repressed homosexual desires? And that’s why I suspect you?”

    “Maybe.”

    L stretches across the bed, and Light, whose homosexual desires are contrived, feels no temptation to peek at his navel or the dark hair leading into his waistband. “Alright, well, congratulations on your discovery.”

    *Aggression fades into something just new enough to notice.
    *L looks up at him like he’s a cosmic event, or a deity. Good. Satisfaction resounds.
