My LawLight Fic Rec

(aka my ongoing list of all my fav fics)

New Game by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

Light is 95% certain he is Kira and, if that's the case, he needs to reclaim his memories, his power and kill L. It's the only way to survive. But that's going to be a little complicated handcuffed to the world's greatest detective. Things get petty, then elaborate, and before long he's starting to wonder if he wants L dead half as much as he needs him dead.

In The Eyes of God by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

After the Yellow Box Warehouse ends with a decisive victory for Kira all of Light’s enemies are dead. Nothing stands in his way. But, somehow, he still feels empty. Ryuk offers him a deal; his eyes in exchange for the resurrection of one human. Light doesn’t even hesitate. He knows exactly who he wants to bring back.

Charming by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

Japan, 2021. The Great Terror could manifest to fight the Prince any day now but the story is so predictable most people are more interested in the new iphone. Frankly, after ten reincarnations, Light is sick of always losing to some stuck up Prince. This time he’s going to change the story. This time he’s going to get his own happily ever after.

Heirs and Spares by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

L and Light are all that remain of the first generation of Wammy House kids. L's the world's greatest detective and Light runs the House cultivating a new generation of geniuses into useful positions. They're rivals first and family second. But Watari suggests, in case of emergencies, it makes sense for them to legally be each other's next of kin. Light's not so sure he wants to marry L, despite the logic of the suggestion, but L's seemingly on board with the idea. Or is it his idea in the first place…?

Gossip Merchant by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

Light makes a living selling secrets. When the mysterious L approaches her asking for her help to complete a commission from the Queen, Light knows immediately there’s something L is not telling her and, whatever it is L needs, he needs to get it from her.

The Taming of Light Yagami by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

For the first time since Naomi's death L is in love, desperately in love, with his assistant Light Yagami. But Light is unwilling to take things to the next level until L untangles his grief from Naomi's loss and mends his fractured relationships with the people left behind.

The Many Forms of Blessings by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

Light was taken in by Wammy House after he lost his family in the accident. Now eighteen he finds it’s a tradition at the house that the best of every generation meet the mysterious creature who lives in the catacombs under the estate; L. Light is reluctant and that unease proves well placed when it’s revealed the graduates L likes never leave the underground.

Prime Suspect by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

L rubs his thumb against his lip, “and you suspect you know who Kira is?” “I’m Kira.” Light replies. “I see,” L murmurs, “so this is a confession?” “Of sorts,” Light prefaces. “That is to say; I was Kira, until three days ago, but now I need your help to prove it and stop whatever I’ve put in motion.” “You better start from the beginning.”

Minutes to Midnight by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

“I think,” Light leans close. “You like Kira more than Light Yagami.” L scoffs, pulling away. “Come to bed, Light.” And that’s it, isn’t it? The truth and the solution hit Light in a single dazzling epiphany. L has to fall in love with him. L has to fall desperately, deeply, in love with him to live.

Unspeakable by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

The last thing Light remembers is the helicopter, catching Higuchi, before he wakes up locked in a penthouse bathroom with a bottle of pills and a video from Kira. From an older version of himself. “Take the pills, and don’t trust a word L says,” Kira declares. But since when has Kira been trust worthy? (Can be read solo, or taken as a sequel to "Minutes to Midnight")

Waving Through a Window by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

Figures Light wouldn't discover L was his soulmate till after both their deaths. Well, no matter now. They're not in Mu which means they've still got time to pull off one more grand scheme. All depends if Light can persuade L to work with him again in the Realm of the Dead. Annoyingly, those damn handcuffs might come in handy…

Problematic by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

Beyond, having escaped from the California super-max, breaks into L's penthouse with wicked intent. He quickly discovers that after all these years L has taken on an investigative/life partner; Light Yagami. The detectives and Beyond spend the next twelve hours involved in a tense game of cat and mouse in the apartment while Beyond's dangerous newfound fascination with Light grows.

Self Defence by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

Boyfriends are a lot of trouble, Light is learning. Girlfriends are easier to manage, certainly. That said while boyfriends are objectively more problematic they’re also more attractive in spades. Light chews a shaggy edge of fingernail on his pinkie, sitting on the bench, while L sets up the private gym in the current headquarters they’re operating out of. “On a scale from one to ten, how married to the idea of training are you?” Light pitches, testing the waters as L throws down the last foam mat in the centre of the cleared space.

Slow to Boil by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

L has loved Kira since he knew there was a Kira to love. Unfortunately for him Light Yagami doesn’t quite understand the whole process of being seduced so L will have to take the frog in the pot approach to taming this beast.

Take Out by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

L misses the days he could shut Light up for a full fifteen minutes by tying a cherry stem with his tongue. They're older now, more dangerous. Kinkier?

High Risk by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

They’re in the final round of their game. With his memories back Light is no longer the romantic, innocent, person L’s come to know and love during the 91 days of the Yotsuba case. Kira’s back and that promises trouble but what neither of them accounted for is a positive pregnancy test.

Unknown by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

L has been in Light’s life for several years now and, over time, one thing has become steadily more and more obvious. No one actually knows Light. It’s not always an insidious thing, part of a scheme, it’s just something about the way Light talks really. He has a way of directing conversation away with subtle, gentle, tactics and he’s more interested in being likeable than being honest. But L wants to know everything.

Room Service by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

Light Yagami is a sex worker. The mysterious Rue Ryuzaki is his best client. Or is that favourite client…?

Roleplay by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

"Pretend you're Kira." "I'm not--" "For the purpose of this conversation pretend you are. Please." 5am, in their suite at taskforce headquarters, handcuffed together, L proposes a thought exercise.

Rabbit Holes by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

L Lawliet, head programmer and engineer for W&W Cybernetics, arrives at Tokyo-3 to fix a malfunction that killed eight people. The problem is that 'malfunction' turns out to be a newly sentient super computer called Kira. L disconnects him from the rest of the installation to begin a historic interrogation, but Kira might not be as defanged as L believes.

The Easy Way by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

“Are you going to be reasonable?” Light demands. “I’m a little busy here, Light,” L grunts, as if he’s talking to a toddler or an ill-tempered cat. “Why don’t you go to bed? I’ll join you later. I think I’m almost done.” Light raps his nails on the shiny surface of L’s desk. “Last warning.” “Goodnight Darling,” L sings, not looking up from his puzzle.

Hysteria by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

L concludes Light has a bad case of hysteria, a medical condition from the nineteenth century primarily treated with orgasms. Clearly, this is the only way to stop the Kira killings.

Countdown by TrashKing (Vanya_Deyja)

What if you could change the entire course of your life by just forgetting to put your watch on one day?

summer passes (i remain behind in the past) by chrysanthmilk

“Light-kun…?” L murmurs, extending a hand to rest on his shoulder. Light’s head snaps up, and L is confronted with a gaze he hadn’t seen in six years, when Light had last touched a Death Note. His scream had sounded the same: the loss of innocence. “L,” he purrs. L goes cold. He withdraws his hand. “Kira-kun," he greets. "It’s been a while.”

Extrajudicial by Boo_Yeah

L knows that Light Yagami is guilty. And he is forced to accept that he will never be able to prove it. So, just this once, he decides to break his principles and go above the law. He kidnaps Light and takes him to Wammy's house. He's sure that having the kids interact with a real-life mass murderer will be a very educational experience indeed. Or: Light is Kira, L is sick of how easily manipulated the police are, and he secretly wants to see what will happen if he forces Light into a domestic situation with children just as intelligent as he is.

Change OR the one where L and Light get married by avoidfilledwithcelluloid

L wasn’t a good driver; he could admit that, to himself. Since he and Quillsh were the only ones who knew the route to the old Wammy summer home, L wasn’t surprised to be behind the wheel. (Thankful, maybe, that he had the forethought to secure this little automatic Volkswagen rather than flounder on the stick shift Quillsh always tried to teach him.) He dared to be happy about his driver role, even; it was appropriate that he chauffeured Light to where they’d be married in a day’s time. Something romantic about crossing the threshold, carrying his love into his world – L stuck out his tongue. Long drives made him corny.

sit and stay awhile by avoidfilledwithcelluloid

"The obsession prodded again, pushing at him, but Light didn’t let it near his mouth. He shoved it down, hard, until it thundered down the cellar stairs of his mind palace. Sulking below all his appropriate thoughts was the insistent wanting that made him avoid L’s gaze – the desire to sit in L’s lap."

best practices by avoidfilledwithcelluloid

Light has been climbing the corporate ladder at a big-time company thanks to his boss-with-benefits relationship with the CEO - otherwise known as L. But when his desire for the top floor office drives him to make a salacious deal, he's in for long, provocative meeting with high-ass stakes. Will his and L's horniness raise the corporate synergy? Or are there still surprises to be found in those expensive suits?

the forest holds strange creatures by avoidfilledwithcelluloid

"He’s not what Light expected. For one, the creature wears clothes—beat up jeans and a hole-ridden white sweater. All over his skin is mossy bark and his hands are gnarled, fingernails black and grimy. Dark thatches of unevenly cut hair grow from his head with leaves caught in the waves. He stares at Light from wide coal black eyes. When he opens his mouth, all his teeth are sharp."

Kept by avoidfilledwithcelluloid

"In the miasma of his flaccid alpha/omega relationships, Light just assumes his type is sycophants. Any pleasure gained from them is all manipulation, no truth. Yet, there is L, who wields his alpha nature like a scepter molded to suit only his hand, who never lets Light gain ground. He’ll move first, speak with clipped authority, and his eyes rove over Light with blanket mistrust. To be seen as a threat by an alpha – a person to be tamed – surprises and captivates Light. God, but he wants to be fucked by L."

the chains that bind us by avoidfilledwithcelluloid

Air rushed out Light’s nose. His mind raced through cue cards, different ways to respond. A good boy’s answer of no, thank you; a mischievous but noncommittal I don’t kiss and tell; and a door-slam of shut up! Yet his tongue clicked past each response toward the most dangerous of all: the truth. "I dreamed about you," he said, "and you wrapped me in your chains until I couldn’t breathe. And you know what?" Light lowered his hand into his briefs, and his finger brushed his cock – the first touch it had since he woke up. A moan struck open his mouth; his body roiled from one caress. "I woke up soaking wet, Ryuzaki. All because I dreamed about you tying me up."

The Light of the Moon by avoidfilledwithcelluloid

L is a vampire; L bit Light on the wrist. What was Light supposed to do - NOT drug the vampire and demand the truth? But what if that dang vamp doesn't stay down, and starts to get closer to Light? Aw geez. Looks like Light's in a real rocky situation, folks. Hopefully this doesn't awaken anything in him!

Possession by avoidfilledwithcelluloid

when Light’s family finds out he’s Kira, they perform a ritual killing to purify the demon from his body. Light’s final thoughts are a plea to make a deal with whatever’s listening so he can come back to life and finish his work as Kira. Good thing a certain demon is always listening for virgin sacrifices and it just so happens Light’s been too busy to, well, get busy. But will Light be able to pay the demon’s big price to get back in the mortal world?

little animals by avoidfilledwithcelluloid

L and Light have a fun time in their backyard. Alternate universe where L is a werewolf, which does make things a lot more fun.

if at first you don't succeed by avoidfilledwithcelluloid

“Are you saying you’ve never gone down on anyone? Never?” “That’s what I said.” Light let annoyance thread through his answer. After a moment, his tense posture relaxed and a more familiar smugness overtook him. “It’s actually sort of an honor, I think. You’re the only person I’ve ever wanted to give head to.”

Buried Alive by avoidfilledwithcelluloid

"His favorite room is the greenhouse; with the vegetation labeled by small markers written in L’s cramped kanji; the fresh misted scent of fertilizer and recycled water; and clear glass panels build a perfect view into the desecrated world above ground."

in your shoes by avoidfilledwithcelluloid

"For a long time, L thrived on his own difference: how he stood away from others, how they were smaller or bigger than him in unappealing ways. Yet with Light, being near the same size in everything was comforting – that he could slip into L’s clothes, his home, his life, without a wrinkle. A shared shoe size was a cipher for a shared consciousness, a knowledge between the two of them no one else had."

so glad you're home by avoidfilledwithcelluloid

"Only an hour passed since L arrived back home at his favorite of their properties: a small remote cabin far enough into the woods for them to never worry about a neighbor overhearing their play. What an hour it had been, though, with Light kneeling at the door in panties, stockings, ears, and a tail plug as well as one of L’s white shirts. The case L’d been on had been boring and its weight soaked into his bones. And yet, seeing his husband and hearing in-person for the first time in three weeks his smooth voice released the anchor dragged behind L. He wrapped his kitten in his arms and they were in the bedroom before his suitcases hit the floor."

Metanoia by theredplace

After arresting Light for his crimes against humanity, L has to sentence him to death, but there’s a change of plans.

Beyond the Skyscraper by theredplace

It was Ryuzaki's job to poke and prod until he inevitably snapped Light's psyche in two. Light was confident he could handle the stress and the constant accusations, but at night, when his mind ran rampant, he wasn't as sure of himself. The monsters under the bed weren't real, but Kira certainly was.

Body Glitter by theredplace

The golden rule of every strip club is to never have sex with the dancers. Light decides that L’s the exception.

In your veins, in your grave by olympiansally

Light is used to bringing people back from the dead, he is used to watching their lifeless bodies fall back into their graves again once their families get a last goodbye. He's not used to a corpse being able to outsmart him though. Or to want to see them again.

Wishing upon a star to hear you come apart by olympiansally

Light is a brilliant director who doesn't make mistakes, but he can't seem to shake this annoying editor's insistence that there's something wrong with the sex scene of his latest film.

Worship me like I'm yours by olympiansally

The angel decorations on L and Light's new Christmas tree spark some feelings about worshiping, and there's no better way of reassuring Light that he's the only God in L's life than by fucking the knowledge into him.

There you are, welcome back by olympiansally

A little bathtub hurt/comfort set after Light gets his memories back and has to come to terms with having to kill the one person who truly sees him enough to have always seen all of him.

Only in my dreams by laulieta

Some people have the ability to occasionally see and dream of red threads of fate. Light Yagami can't even imagine himself being happy with a soulmate, until, while working on a case, he meets the great detective L.

Kokuhaku by laulieta

After Light gives up being Kira and L no longer considers him his prisoner, almost everything is sorted out. The only thing left are those annoying feelings lodged in Light's chest. Maybe he should confess?

Give me one good honest kiss (and I'll be alright) by laulieta

Misa has a genius idea to make Light jealous enough to pay her more attention, but it doesn't work in the direction she expected. L has his own ideas, too.

in the absence of light by velvetvice

in the absence of light, they finally see each other clearly.

who's winning now? by velvetvice

L puts Light in his place.

Life in Color by Rachello344

Light had a lot of expectations for his first meeting with the legendary detective, L. None of them involved how very strange the man was, nor the way he literally filled Light's world with color. Of all the people who could have been his soul mate, L was certainly… unexpected.

(Please) Stay by Rachello344

When L finally comes home from case-related travel, he and Light spend the night 'reconnecting.'

Lipstick Kisses by Rachello344

In order to catch a notorious gangster, Light goes undercover--it turns out, he's the man's type. Now if only L can survive watching Light flirt with a man while he's looking… particularly attractive. He can only hope.

February Air by BlueberryAsh

She doesn't comprehend, but she feels. (AU, in which Kira was apparently mysteriously bested by a certain clever detective.)

Rest by BlueberryAsh

Dark blue, and Light feels as though she's under the ocean.

And I Don't Want Your Pity, I Just Want Somebody Near Me by iamtheleftbrain

Light has a nightmare and L wants to help, so they take a car ride. (this is part one of this author's amazing series of Lawlight Oneshots)

(Not) According to Plan by FlamesRise

Light is smart, successful in his career despite his age, and has learned how to expertly control the people around him to his own benefit. There's just one problem, one person who still stands in his way - his arrogant, rude, egotistical, insufferable supervisor. Light will do anything to win this game against him and get what he wants. Anything. What he doesn't know is that he's not the only one who's willing to play dirty. (this is the first part of this author's incredible ongoing Lawlight lawyers AU series)

all in a day's work by benzaaldehyde

L and Light are porn stars. yeah.

we have been lied to by Nilahxapiel

AU (Black Mirror). All of society is regimented by a Five Star social scale, voting on each interaction, photo, and anecdote. Keeping up is practically a full time job, but fortunately, Light Yagami excels at smiling and lying through his teeth. It’s no wonder he becomes one of the youngest with a 4.5+ Star rating in existence, all while carefully pretending to be apathetic to the whole system. A misunderstanding avalanches, leaving Light in with less than half his usual Rank in a matter of hours. He reacts as any wrongfully accused person (who is not at all to blame) would. He fucks up. Bad. Over and over.

Friends with (Financial) Benefits by ready4sin

Light had been a lot of things in his life. An honor student, a hard-working son, an honor student, a great brother, an honor student, but he never had been and never would be some filthy whore. Still, a hundred-thousand dollars upfront? It didn’t matter what the contract said. He had to sign it. He flipped through all sixty-five pages, signing his initials when needed and his full name, Light Yagami, at the end with a beautiful little flourish. After all, what did he have to lose? Except for his dignity, of course. And he had everything to gain.

Technical Difficulties by draw_thy_sword

Light Yagami's patience and pussy are put to the test when his arrogant, sentient AI comes to life purely to spite him.

How L Increases His Thinking Power By More Than 40% by WizardPartyForever

This case is difficult; Light and L resort to multitasking.

light of his life (fire in his loins) by naberiuz

“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.)

rewards for fools by autumnstar88

Light Yagami had planned to remember he was Kira. However, he hadn’t planned to be remembering that the night before he’d promised to give L a reward for their hard work all these long months.

The Vampire of Kanto by Anonymous

Light is grounded for unjust reasons, and plans to spend the whole night in his room to sulk in peace. Until Sayu's babysitter comes to introduce himself, and Light realizes this may not be a human he's talking to…

The Games We Play by gayraito (Mercurial_Magic)

Light decides to court trouble, and L is unusually receptive to intrigue.

the days are much colder there by rawrlight

Light is a part-time barista, and L is his mysterious customer. They take an interest in each other.

let's meet at your convenience (store) by rawrlight

Light, and L, and learning how to be perfectly normal.

Your Book's Overdue (And Our Date is, Too) by rawrlight

Light Yagami works a part-time job at his university's library, and all is well until a strange, headache-inducing new arrival shows up.

glass half full, i'd probably just drink that too! by rawrlight

Light meets L at a college party that both of them regret going to.

Hit The Road, Not Your (Boy?)Friend by rawrlight

When Light finally crawled into bed at midnight, an hour behind his usual schedule (oh, god, he hated when things were behind his usual schedule), he was royally pissed the fuck off. First of all, he had a fucking fifteen minute shower before L banged on the bathroom door to ask him for the hairdryer. And then banged on the bathroom door again to ask when he could come in to brush his teeth and if Light was naked, both questions Light dearly wanted to say no to but clearly could not. Second of all, L was terrible at keeping his belongings all to himself. Not in the nice, traditional way of oh, I’ll share this with you, but oh, I’ll dump my mess all on your side, which was exactly what he did and now L’s shirts were scattered on the floor around Light’s bed, vaguely resembling some sort of demon exorcism ritual, except with shirts instead of candles. And the last reason of all, Light could not fucking sleep.

A Low Budget Romeo and Juliet Remake by rawrlight

Light's the male lead in his theater club's play, and he needs to find someone to practice with. L, stage crew, just happens to be very good with lines.

A (Part-Time) Florist's Guide to Saying Fuck You in Flower by rawrlight

Light Yagami, a part-time florist, meets a customer, L, who knows nothing about flowers but everything about literary works.

in the eye of the snowstorm by owl_mug

During a cold, Colorado winter after L's defeat of Kira, Light struggles to deal with the fact that he has lost the game. But along with the bitterness of losing his New World brews something deeper: the pain from a much more personal blow dealt to Light by L on the day his godhood crumbled around him, juxtaposed against his still-lingering love for the detective. Across five scenes where Light refuses to admit he's still in love with L, and one scene where he finally does - the two learn to live together again despite the storm that they've created.

I’ll continue to add more to this list as I gain more favs!!!
