What do you do when The New World feels worse than The Old One? by NearlyProfessional
Fandoms: Death Note (Anime & Manga)
15 Dec 2025

Summary
Light Yagami has always believed control is everything.
But ever since L stepped into his life, fully stepped into it, control has become something fragile. Control to Light is beginning to feel fractured. What begins as a battle of justice and deception slowly fractures into something more insidious: a constant psychological war where every look, every word, and every silence is a risk. And it's all L's fault.
As Kira’s plans tighten and Light’s resolve strains under L’s unrelenting presence, the line between hatred, rivalry, and something far more dangerous begins to blur. After all, when the person most capable of destroying you is also the only one who truly understands you… how long can pretending last?

Who looks VERY familiar.

Light was once T/ a second L who taken away and doesn't remember anything, while L hopelessly clings onto the love and light his former friend turned enemy brought him during their childhood.

Summary
My take on death note, except many of the characters are genderbent versions of themselves.
Light Yagami has played the role of the perfect student well, but it's become terribly boring. She uses a magical notebook, the death note, to try and fix the world, while an odd lady detective tries to catch her and a fledgling actor tries his best to earn her affection.
This is the updated version of Blue Moon, which I began and then abandoned in 2017...

"[Name]." booms a surprisingly quiet voice. Still no answer.
"Please." What is he trying? Acting pathetic now?

Summary
The memories had to be fake.
When Light touches the Death Note and the memories of his time as Kira return, he cannot fathom they are true. How could he ever take such joy from slaughtering millions? They must have been sent by Kira to distract him! Light swears he will execute the real Kira if it's the last thing he ever does.
Meanwhile, L is wondering why his favorite killer seems to no longer want him dead.

Summary
Ever since you found out your best friend, Misa Amane, is the second Kira, you have been in the shadows, keeping quiet about everything. She tells you her plans to find the first Kira. However, you have a bad gut feeling about what this can entail in the future.
After she finds out who Kira is, she tells him about you, and Kira insists on meeting up with you in person. You knowing of the Death Note has seemingly put you in an awkward spot in both of the Kiras' plans, and you have no choice but to work alongside them.After meeting Kira, he allows you to meet his Shinigami. Well, little did you know that this Shinigami has taken an interest in you and even wants to know more about you.
TL/DR
You and Misa are best friends. This takes place in the Death Note story where she broadcasts, and you both go from there. She tells Light you know him, and he lowkey gets mad as hell. Now you are officially a part of his plans, and you meet Ryuk, and y'all have a monster human romance WOAH!!!!!!!!!!! -

Summary
"Excuse me," she's saying, wide grin plastered on with far too much ferocity. So this is his stalker? Hm. Not quite. "I think the complex totally mixed up our packages, I got one with your apartment number on it. Haha, how silly, right?" Ah, yes, that does explain the arm hidden behind her back. Concealing a potential weapon and aiding her alibi; though paper-thin, she must have thought this through, but for what? "May I come in?"
"Thank you, but there's no need for that." L holds out his hand, ignoring Ryuk’s steadily-rising cackles. Even if his suspicions are right, he cannot risk confirming hers.
She is the second Kira. Her reckless introduction had already proven as such—
"And besides, L Lawliet, I don't think you'd want what I know getting out, do you?"
Misa's becoming of the Second Kira.

Summary
Light isn’t Kira. Probably. He’s pretty sure he’d remember that - no, he’s definitely innocent. But it’d be nice to be able to say so with some conviction, or retain any kind of certainty, if he could just think of anything beyond the infuriating fucking cackling in his head.

Misa is a worse person than Kira. Smarter, too, but we’ll get to that.
(Or: L knows her favorite cake, Light does not; L tells her good night, Light does not; and somehow all these little things build up till she can't take it anymore.)

Summary
When the enigmatic detective, L, calls in reinforcements in his investigation against Japan's newest serial killer, he inadvertently brings in a much greater threat - the only foe who ever escaped his justice.
***
Kira holds Japan in his grasp as he targets criminals escaping justice. Some call him a hero. Others seek to catch him.
The world's greatest detective, L, takes on the case but quickly finds himself thwarted at every turn. Kira is unlike anyone he has ever faced before - silent, meticulous, and seemingly as intelligent as him. In his desperation, L calls in C. She is his perfect match in all fields but holds no scruples and isn't afraid to place herself in a killer's mind if that solves the case. Yet her greatest asset is her ability to see the dead and dying. Together, L and C prove a fearsome challenge for Kira. Yet the secrets surrounding her, which L is determined to take to his grave in order to protect her, threaten to surface.
With everything to lose, can L keep C on his side? Or will the haunting past clash with the deadly foe of the present to determine a future where L is no more?

L opens up Twitter and makes a tweet.
Law (L) ✓ @LawMinecraft · Kira cheated on his speedrun. Those pearl drops are not normal. I am positive he has modified the game’s files to mess with Piglin trades.
His inbox is flooded immediately with replies.
L and Light are rapidly growing Minecraft YouTubers. Faceless YouTuber Kira beats faceless YouTuber L's speedrun world record with an almost impossible time, and L thinks he has cheated to do it. Naturally, he will not let it slide. Neither will Kira's stans.

Summary
What if Light was not the one to find the Death Note that day? How would the world change with that power in the hands of someone with no desire to be a God?
Shuichi Aizawa found the notebook by chance. Though initially skeptical, Aizawa, heavily disillusioned with the way things are, decides to use the notebook to change the world in ways being a detective never could, and allow people to escape the injustices society never let them be free of, becoming the vigilante known as Kira.
But a lack of ego can only protect him for so long. Once a Second Kira appears, Aizawa is thrust into a fight for his life against the combined forces of the world’s greatest detective, L, and the brilliant son of the Police Superintendent, Light Yagami. As the deadly net begins to close in, Aizawa has to rely on his own skills and the help of his disapproving partner, Ide, to avoid capture and locate the Second Kira before the police can. But in an unexpected twist, L may prove to be the least of his problems.
