from the pov that he gen likes you and isn’t using you for kira reasons or otherwise
A(nniversary) - How do they celebrate anniversaries with their partner?
i think he’d initially forget about it— or at least pretend to, then he’d do something romantic but def wouldn’t go all out. maybe a nice dinner and roses, but not a huge gesture.
B(athroom) - Is their shared bathroom messy or organized? Do they enjoy showering/bathing with their partner?
for sure its organized. you couldn’t catch a single beard hair on his sink after shaving, never-mind anything else unclean. he’s not a complete clean freak, but he’s for sure hygienic and values cleanliness.
as for showing with you— i think he’d put up with it, but he wouldn’t offer. he’s not necessarily against it, he just doesn’t see the point
C(elebration) - What holidays do they and their partner celebrate? What are birthdays like? Do they like hosting parties and meals?
i think light would celebrate the typical holidays— christmas, thanksgiving, etc.; you wouldn’t change that
as for his birthday: he would treat it like any other day except his mom and sister would probably bake him a cake and get 2 or 3 presents from his family. as for your birthday: he’d plan something out, but he wouldn’t make it a whole-day thing, more-so an end-of-day celebration.
he likes the social connections it provides and the information he can get from it— but otherwise he sees it as useless and mostly boring; but he’ll put up with it
D(inner) - Do they eat dinner with their partner every night? Do they do most of the cooking, or at least help with it? Do they like to talk about their day or enjoy a comfortable silence?
regardless of who light is as a person, i wholeheartedly think that he would do his best to eat dinner with you every night; if possible.
he’s not against cooking per-se, but he loves the domesticity of you cooking for him. i think he’d love that; domesticity and all
he’d do either. he would like to talk about his day; but if nothing too particular happened, he’d rather listen to you or sit in silence, or even watch tv.
E(ntrance) - How do they greet their partner when they arrive home?
when he arrives home: he’d set his stuff down and greet you with a hug, a kiss, or other physical display of affection— depending on how his day went. when you arrive home: he’d expect you to come to him, and then he’d either (9 times out of 10) integrate you into whatever he was doing before you came home, or (that small chance) tell you he’d talk to you later and that he’s busy; essentially telling you to go away
F(amily) - Do they want to start a family with their partner? Any pets or children? How do they get along with their partner's relatives?
like i said earlier— i think light would be a very domestic person. he’d want at least 2 kids.
as for pets probably no; he’d think they’re too dirty, take up too much space, or take up too much time
depends on how they treat you, and most importantly him. i don’t think he’d be best friends with them regardless, but he’d be at most civil
G(roceries) - Do they like to go shopping with their partner? Are they trying to sneak treats into the cart when no one is looking?
he’d rather you do it, again— the domesticity of it. also, he’d have ‘better things to do’ (in his own words.)
on the off chance he does go with you: no— he’d just put it in; seeing as he’s the one who’s paying, he’d have no reason to have to sneak
H(ouse) - How quick do they ask to live together? Where do they and their partner move in together? Do they get a new place entirely, or does one just start living with the other?
not too quick, but he wouldn’t take long either. probably after 4-5 months of dating?
either. he wouldn’t seem to care either way unless one place is: in an area he doesn’t like, the house itself doesn’t please him for whatever reason, and/or it couldn’t fit them and their items
I(ndoors) - What's their favorite way to spend a lazy/rainy day in with their partner?
solving a case (with you on his lap), watching tv (with you on his lap), or writing in his death note (with you on his lap); basically anything that he wants to do— with you in his lap, or at the very least near him.
J(obs) - Do they work with their partner? If not, do they ever visit their place of work?
if you did work with him— he’d keep it mostly a secret, or rather private. he wouldn’t openly say he’s in a relationship with you, but he wouldn’t deny it either. if you two were married and it was obvious (matching last names, etc.) he wouldn’t mind it being public info, but that doesn’t mean he would act like your husband/fiancée publicly (no PDA, basically)
i think he’d rarely visit you at work, unless there was a real reason. if you visited him, he might be a little embarrassed if it’s in front of his coworkers; but if it was private i think he’d quite like it
K(eepsake) - Have they decorated with/displayed any mementos from their relationship?
he would keep anything important, but not meaningless stuff like a peel from a banana you ate or something like that— think letters, anniversary gifts, etc.
L(aundry) - Do they help with their partner's laundry, or do they only focus on their own clothes? Do they share a closet or dresser with their partner?
he’d def make you do all the laundry. (again— the domesticity.)
he’d share a closet with you, but keep a strict barrier on whats yours and whats his
M(ornings) - What's it like waking up with them? Are they a morning person, or does their partner have to drag them out of bed?
he always wakes up before you, and he gets all ready (brush his teeth + hair, get dressed, etc.) and then he’d just sit in a chair and stare at you while you sleep. it’s a little creepy, but also romantic.
he’s for sure a morning person. getting up at about 6am everyday, he’d try not to wake you; but if he did he’d get you to go back to sleep
N(ights) - What's their nightly routine with their partner? Do they go to bed earlier, later, or at the same time? How do they sneak into bed when they've come home late?
his night routine would stay the same before and during you, but he’d try and get you on it as well.
10pm if it’s a normal day, 9pm if he has to get up early, and 11pm if he has to stay up late doing something important
quiet and sneaky— you’d never notice otherwise, and if you said something, he’d tell you it was all in your pretty little head
O(rbit) - Are they constantly at their partner's side, or do they keep to themself more?
he’d much rather you orbit around him than the other way around.
P(resent) - Do they often bring home gifts for their partner? What do they usually buy?
whenever you’re mad at him, getting distant, or just sad that day, he specifically goes to a shop or restaurant you like and get you something. or— if your out, and you want something, he’ll buy it. unless it’s just completely stupid (though, with lots of begging and a favor or two, he’d buy it)
whatever you want, or that he’d think you like
Q(uarrel) - Do they get into fights with their partner often? Do they let it escalate or try to calm it down?
only if you disobey him in some sort of way, other than that he won’t start anything— but he will always finish them (de-escalating them)
he tries to calm it (and you) down. one thing i think he’d never do is hit you.
R(esponsibility) - Do they take on very many chores? Do they complain about it? How helpful are they when it comes to housework?
no, i don’t believe so. unless you’re physically unable to.
in his head, yes; but under the circumstances where he would have to do a chore instead of you, he probably wouldn’t verbalize it unless you asked
quite helpful. he doesn’t do the weaponized incompetence bullshit
S(ickness) - How do they take care of their partner when they're ill? How do they like to be taken care of when the roles are reversed?
he’d do the best he could, but he wouldn’t go all out— the typical giving you medicine, cooking you good meals, comforting you, taking your temp., etc,
the usual, except, he’d probably want you to be in bed with him if you don’t have any other obligation.
T(elevison) - Do they watch TV with their partner regularly? What do they watch? (Morning news? Sitcoms? Dramas?) Do they ever fight over the remote?
yes. but, he’ll do it alone too.
news. news. news. all day every day (though he won’t fight too much if you want to watch something else
U(nwind) - What's their favorite way to be comforted when coming home from a stressful day? How would they comfort their stressed partner?
just you cuddling up to him and praising him, boosting his ego and all that
same as how you comfort him mostly— he’d tell you to just crawl into his arms and stop thinking. he’d praise you, too
V(acation) - How often do they take trips with their partner? What is their ideal vacation?
whenever his job allows, and of course if he wants to. he’s not big on them, but he’s not against them either, especially if you want to go.
somewhere with a beach or pool so he can watch you use the cute bathing suits you beg him to buy you
W(edding) - Are they and their partner married? Do they elope or have a more traditional wedding, if any?
he’d want to get married pretty fast— at least compared to the average person. over 2 years is too much for him, his ideal time would be 1 year and 6 months, likely, though he wouldn’t mind getting married after at least 8 months of dating
whatever you want— though if you asked him, traditional wedding
X - Free Space. Write whatever you want.
he likes control, and that sounds manipulative (probably because light as a character is manipulative…) but if he found a partner where he could choose every aspect down to what they wear, i think he’d love that. of course he’s not abusive, if you overrode his decisions, he wouldn’t mind; but he’d like choosing things for you.
Y(earn) - How much do they miss their partner when they have to be away from home for a while? How do they react when they finally return home?
he wouldn’t admit it— but a good amount. he’d keep a little picture of you in his wallet that he’d look at when he gets a moment alone, just cus he misses you
he wouldn’t be too dramatic, but he would complain about being away from you for so long. he’d also appreciate you complaining about it too— nice to know it’s reciprocated.
Z(est) - Do they find domestic life boring or exciting? Do they regret choosing this kind of life?
he wouldn’t find it boring or exciting, but rather a simple, routine, every-day, life. and he’s perfectly good with that, nothing more and nothing less.
in my mind, light doesn’t do anything he doesn’t want to do if he can help it. so no, he doesn’t regret choosing it.
