    Summary

    “These trials are meant not just to break you, L Lawliet, but to make you new again. To punish, and to heal. Close the phone and walk out the door.”

    The unknown caller hung up, and L considered his options, crouched on the grimy floor, heart ready to burst out of his chest.

    Compliance would be best, lest he lose his other eye. L stumbled to the door, bloody hands slipping on the doorknob before swinging it back on its hinges with a loud creak.

    On the other side, Yagami Light jumped at the noise, spinning around to meet L’s… eye.

    “Ryuzaki!?”

    …And L thought this day couldn’t get any worse.

    Summary

    We’re children, B wished he could retort. But it wouldn’t solve anything to say that. Such a defense would be considered blasphemy here, since IQ tests holding promising results had been done on all the children participating in the successor program. However, “participating” wasn’t quite the right word. Sure, you could always choose if you wanted to join or not. But once you did, you weren’t allowed to leave.

    ~~~

    Beyond and A are tasked with preparing Mello and Near to be L’s successors. But when you really think about it, this whole situation is kind of messed up, isn’t it?

    Summary

    “Paul Matthews.” Ted asked in a faux-serious tone, leaning forward to stare at Paul in the eyes, “Are you drunk?”

     

    “No.” Paul replied, before a second later shook his head to himself, “Okay. Maybe.”

     

    Or: Richie and Pete are eight, and Paul is a twenty-two single uncle/dad. Two kids want to hang out and Paul has to find out who's the brother of his nephew's BFF. Turns out, it's the office sleazeball whom he has been avoiding with much success. Chaos ensues.
