I had another AU idea (idk where they're coming from 💀) and I'd like to share it with you.
Wednesday (24 maybe 25) is obviously in place of L, world' greatest detective hunting this new nemesis. Enid however is a university student (22-24) studying something, maybe journalism because of her popular highschool blog.
However it's not the same as Death Note, just similar. Enid still one day she comes across the Death Note, it's pages blank with no return address nor rules etched onto it. Enid thinks to herself; free notebook, maybe I can jot down ideas in it. After changing that name though. So she takes it home, leaves it on her desk, does her homework. Scrolls through social media for a silly amount of time (just like us frfr).
This is where the AU diverts from Canon compliant Death Note, sure there's still a god of Death but he instead of looking like Ryuk is this huge, hulking, looming figure of a bipedal werewolf. Not sure of a name for him yet. Obviously, he's here for the notebook, here for Enid (not to kill her!).
Enid wakes up to the new day, daily routine ect ect. Remembers the notebook she found yesterday. There are names written in it. She's never touched the pen to paper but here they are. And then she hears from the television downstairs, news, murders. The names are of the victims.
(Essentially; when Enid sleeps, the god wakes and takes lives of those unfortunate enough to have their time run out).
I'm thinking she still meets the god but not sure.
Maybe Yoko would be Misa (but platonic) except maybe just a photography major or modeling major in uni. Enid & Wednesday would meet in uni as Wednesday pins the area of the murderer to near Enid.
I might write Enid finding the notebook, I've got the itch to lol.
Sorry for this mega long thing, I got a little carried away :].
ive never really gotten into the death note fandom.. but now you're telling me that this is almost like a jekyll hyde situation!?
