LoveRedeems: [[ZigzaggingTrope Zigzagged]]. Light's realization that killing L, someone he has grown close to, would cause him to lose the last of his sanity contributes to his decision to stop being Kira, but he doesn't view it or the impromptu sex they had on the roof as the sole reason for his decision. In addition, developing feelings for L doesn't stop Light from still being a prideful ManipulativeBastard who has little empathy for others outside of his family or L; he becomes more willing to admit that he might be wrong about some things and take L's feelings in consideration to make their relationship work, but he's still hardly a nice person. The author describes Light as not so much "redeemed" as "rehabilitated".
*LoveRedeems LovesMyAlterEgo: The final chapter makes it clear that while L really does love Light back, he still hates Kira and would be far from quick to ever forgive Light if he found out the truth one day.
