Summary:

Settling into the new Kira Task Force headquarters after Light's time in captivity, L makes the decision to be chained to Light and with him 24/7. This decision was, on the surface, meant to create pressure for his prime suspect and to disallow Kira committing more murders under his watch. However, Light is no longer sure exactly why he insisted that he be put into captivity, and he does not quite seem like he remembers or possesses the power to commit murder from a remote location.

As the two of them coexist with forced proximity at all hours of the day, questions of dignity, personal space, and the nature of their relationship arise, all while Light deals with the fact that his father seems to give his ongoing consent to this situation.

[An alternate universe exploring the unsettling details of the 'chained together' situation, culminating in some release of sexual tension with a lot of emotional and character exploration along the way.]

Have you made a fluff rec list yet? 🙏

NO. I HAVE NOT. as the fluff CEO I am ashamed.

When I saw this ask, I immediately got to work... BLESS YOU UNC holy I was just thinking about making one today. I hope your pillows are cold at night.. So, here it is...

under the cut, none are explicit;

Kira Is Not a Cat Dad ; hayden_rou ; T, no warnings ; WIP "Matsuda," L said, voice flat, eyes sharper than usual as he peered up from his crouched seat, "may I ask why you've brought a kitten into the headquarters building of the Kira investigation?"

THIS IS. SO CUTE. Cats and Lawlight... mmm..

I exploded when I first read it seriously. It got updated today... SO peak...

Pastel Blue ; anivhee ; G, no warnings ; 3.5k oneshot Light's teacher has decided to run a Valentine's exchange this year! Everything would be fine except 1. Light doesn't care for presents, and 2. he might have to come up with a gift for his nemesis.

makes a ton of mimimi noises... this is, by far, my most read lawlight oneshot fluff. I think. Not sure. But it is a possibility...

Christmas wishes ; E_Leonora ; G, no warnings ; 2.2k oneshot The Kira case was closed. Light returned to his normal life as soon as he was cleared of suspicion. While he was at home, he felt like his life was empty without a certain black-haired man.

AWWW this is so cutesyEXPLODES this fic is old, from like 2019, but it's still CUTE!!!

Olive Branch ; bri_chrihaya ; T, no warnings ; 5.3k oneshot “If you try to hurt anyone in this building, I will kill you.” L’s voice held no emotion. His eyes were the same cloudy gray that the sky had been the day Light gave up everything so he wouldn’t have to give up the only thing that mattered. It grounded Light. “Is that what you need to hear?” Light nodded. “Well,” L sighed. “Now that we have that out of the way, let me see your lesson plan.”

TEACHER LIGHT!!! I REPEAT!!!! TEACHER LIGHT!!!

i gotta shut the fuck up about this fic but ITS SO CUTEEE

this isn't considered pure fluff, but it is soooo cutesy at the end.... ahwhhdh....

I have to say it, put it into big words, but really, I'm not that strong. ; norif_sh ; G, no warnings ; 400 oneshot Light wakes up one morning to find L fast asleep beside him. He does something he immediately regrets. L doesn't seem all that upset.

I'm most likely sure this was one of my first fluff fics! I reread it soooo many times,,, It's quick, simple and so cute!

OCDgami save us...

sugar and pumpkin spice ; orphan acc... ; T, no warnings ; 10.5k word oneshot Light doesn’t really know what he was expecting when he snapped at L a few nights ago. He knows what he hoped for; L realizing the error of his ways and expressing his contrition in the form of a generous donation to the tip jar on the counter; L keeping his shoes on next time (which should be a no-brainer, honestly); or, better yet, there not being a next time in the first place. But that was all just wishful thinking on his part. Even geniuses need to dream, sometimes. When L starts talking to him, he wonders if he should have spent his time strategizing instead.

WRITER!!! WHY ARE YOU ORPHANED!!! I NEED MORE OF YOUR WORKS!!!PLEASDR

that aside. this is SO beautiful!! I usually am not a fan of café AUs, but this? GORGEOUS. BEAUTIFUL. I remember reading it... maybe I should reread...

glass half full, i'd probably just drink that too! ; rawrlight ; G, no warnings ; 5.6k word oneshot ... Light meets L at a college party that both of them regret going to.

WAMMY HOUSE FAMILY?? I usually don't see them as such, but I do accept this.... also teehee written by moot @rawrlight i hope you do not mind being tagged....

Tag your Boyfriend ; orphan acc... ; T, no warnings ; WIP... Light didn’t sign up for TikTok fame. L posts couple challenges and signed him up anyway.

WRITER PLEASE COME BACK YOU ARE NEEDED please... please

That aside... sniffs... I love this. this is for the chronically online fluff lovers. which is, you, unc.

Sweet Nothings Known ; Hi_K4ru ; G, no warning ; 3.9k word oneshot L transfers to To-Oh from the UK, Misa and their group of friends befriend L and become very close in a few weeks. One day they realize they know little to nothing about L, family background, hobbies, nothing! So they make a bet to find out his surname.

listeniknow I said college/hs AUs are a no-no. but. this is CUTE!!!! ITS ADORABLE!!! I LOVE IT!!! and if you have a problem, don't read it!!!

L and Light chilling at the end... puts my face in my hands and spins

i held her in my arms (but it wasn't you)

lawlight yuri fic set during ep 25 sorry not sorry. no violence surpassing canon or other stuff just a little angsty.

i'm gnawing on the knowledge that i have been burnt

L perched below Light, silvery sunlight painting her in desaturated colours. Her hands delicately trailed down from Light's heel to the center of her foot. She pressed into her smooth skin in circles, focused on nothing else.

i'm learning that i should've already learnt

"Will you miss me?" She whispers, pressing her lips to Light's shin.

"I don't know what you're talking about." She responded quietly, dragging a towel across L's face. L looks up at her, and her head is turned away, but her eyes linger, just not long enough for L to identify the emotions in her gaze.

"I know you're Kira."

everyone i ever knew was so kind and coy

"I just can't prove it to the others."

"Well, even if I were Kira, what's stopping you from apprehending me?"

"I have to win. You know this as well as I do," She chirps, lowering her head to kiss the bones of Light's ankles.

As L rose, Light took her chin in her left hand, her right entangled in her hair. Their eyes meet, and now she knows- Light looks at her with a murderous gaze, and yet there's still love behind it. Maybe in her perspective, death is the gentlest mercy someone like L deserves.

They kiss too fast and not soon enough. It feels like L has been waiting for this, and she's not sure for how long. They pull away, and Light cannot meet her eyes.

i was with a girl, but it felt like it was a boy

She goes back to drying off L's hair, and as she covers L's ears, she whispers something.

"I will miss you."

That night, L sits hunched over with her stomach tangled into a sailor's knot. It will happen soon. She studies the empty bedroom. She knew this day would come ever since she interviewed (interrogated? It's too hard to think.) Light. She expected something, like fear, anger, sadness. Now she only wishes to feel something. Anything would do, even a fit of tears.

Instead, it's like Light has carved a cavern into her heart. How she wishes that she would come along to fill that hole, whisper sweet, sweet nothings into her ear. To reach her hands around her body, trap her between her limbs, to have those hands on the back of her head once more.

L can almost imagine how it would feel. Laying on her side in bed, her left hand holding her close, legs crossed around L's hips, her right hand running down her spine. Her hands are warm, nails almost piercing.

Except she's alone. She misses Light's presence, from when they were handcuffed together. The jingling of their handcuffs, the rustling of the bedsheets, and her rythmic breathing. The absence of those mundane sounds are paradoxically deafening.

i cant even remember if we were lovers, or if i just wanted to

Three knocks at the door. "Ryuzaki?" Light calls.

L sluggishly approached the door, cracking it open first before letting Light in. She took a seat back on her bed.

"I missed you." Light mumbled, standing awkwardly in the doorway, arms crossed. They make eye contact. Her eyes don't have that searing quality, all hint of blood red replaced by a soft bronze.

"You can stay the night, if that's what's you want." Light closed the door, walking gracefully to L's bed. She sat down as if she had never left, laying close enough to L to feel her breath on her shoulder. "Why haven't you killed me yet?" L asks.

In that instant, her eyes changed. She shifted away from L. "Because I'm not Kira."

L reaches her hands around Light. It takes her a while to reciprocate, and even then, it feels fabricated. Like they're actors, performing for an empty house. No, they're performing for the sake of it.

but I held her in my arms, held her in my arms,

i held her in my arms, but it wasnt you

It would be easy now. To take Light into custody, have no one but the task force know. The killings would stop. And she can't bring herself to. If L called Watari in, even if she told Light it was to arrest her, she wouldn't run, wouldn't fight.

i will not kill the one thing that i love

in this world of wreckage, i look above

Light rests her head on L's shoulder, every breath echoing through L's body. Tears quietly stream from L's eyes. How could she have stooped so low? Light lifts her head, and grazes her hand against L's cheek, wiping away her tears.

help me lord, help me understand

what it means to be a girl, and what it means to be a woman

Would Light, the real Light, the Light who she had been handcuffed to, the Light who caught Higuchi, the Light who didn't hesistate hit L- would she have done this?

i cant even remember if we were lovers

Thinking too hard makes her sick. She comes to a conclusion: Light wouldn't have done this.

And for some reason, she smiles. Light smiles back.

"I wish I could have held you like this before," Light says.

"You're lying, aren't you?"

Light chuckles, and pulls L into a kiss. It's gentle but shallow. And for some reason, L settles for it.

or if i just wanted to

The next day, L sits in her chair, not touching her sickly sweet tea. The bells are loud. They're too loud. Every ring splits her skull in half, and her eardrums might burst. It's not suprising when her chest and shoulder burst into searing pain.

but i held her in my arms, i held her in my arms

Hoping she would see Light, the last thing L sees is Kira.

i held her in my arms but it wasnt you

rating: G | lawlight | pre-yotsuba arc | 900 words

Light's plan is perfect: he’ll turn himself in, wait a couple of days and give up ownership of the notebook. L won't know what hit him. Neither does Light, as a car hits him before he gets to the hotel. Written for Lawlight Week, Day 2: Amnesia.
