#the deathnote

•Light decides To Seduce L in order to marry him so that he will finally find out his full name

•L notices something is off with Light immediately but is completely oblivious to Lights seduction attempts

•The task force are less oblivious and Soichiro takes Light aside at one point to ask what the hell he is doing: he doesn’t care about Light being gay but doesnt understand his supposed attraction to L. At this point Light is too proud to admit he thinks his attempts are failing so he just doubles down and starts flirting even harder (he definitely hasn’t actually started to enjoy hanging with L and flirting with him no way)

•L finally finds out about the flirting when Misa informs him of it (they have a weekly sleepover bc in my canon they’re besties I don’t make the rules sry) Misa gives them some lines to use to flirt back because she loves to play matchmaker and thinks they’ll make a cute couple (let’s be real Misa is all of us)

•Light becomes really flustered when L flirts back leading to the realisation that he actually does have feelings for L and consequently also goes to Misa for advice on how to deal with falling for someone for the first time ever

•Misa makes a plan with Matsuda (because matsuda is too nice not to be friends with) and Rem to set the two up on a date

• They do the cliche ‘this was supposed to be a group hang but everyone got sick oh no’ which neither Light nor L believe but they both like the other too much to object

•They start dating with Light revealing the Death Note to L and, after L explains the flaws in Kiras ideals (eg: all the fucking innocents and wrongfully convicted killed) they decide that Light should work alongside L and simply bury the notebook where it won’t be found so Light keeps his memories but not the ability to kill
