Fanfic / Low Light

Go To

Low Light by Dragonrider4000 is a Darker and Edgier (yeah really) Death Note Fanfic.

Upon realizing his feelings for Light, L uses the Notebook to save his life. L goes to the Dark Side and with Light they go on to rule their Evil Empire together... (except that Light's beginning to realize he's created a monster...)


Low Light provides examples of:

  • A God Am I: deconstructed as it shows how Light's God Complex makes it easier for L to take advantage of him...
  • Bond Villain Stupidity: L decides to let a few of his successors live for the sake of a challenge and to give some the option to join him.
  • Couldn't Find a Pen: Lampshaded:
    L: You can be incredibly creepy when you want to be.
    Light: Creepy?
    L: You question whether writing a message to someone in another's blood upon the floor is creepy?
    Light: I suppose you have a point there L, but it was the only writing material I knew the man would have readily available.
  • Crazy Jealous Guy: Evil!L is very possessive of Light and becomes jealous when Light is spending so much time with Matsuda.
  • "The Reason You Suck" Speech:
    Good Morning Near,
    I hope that you are well this morning, and my impromptu greeting has not interrupted any important investigation work this man was pursuing. I would not wish to deprive you of your important information, but when I realised that you were attempting to find me I knew I it would be remiss of me not to greet you.
    As is my way, I shall prove to you my identity, as if this were not enough already. I believe you have an Ellickson Thomas and a Larry Conners working for you, yes? I also know that if you had been more thorough in your investigation you would have realised they were perhaps not quite as virtuous as you were led to believe. I shall say no more on that.
    I must say that taking on L's persona in front of the American President really was quite rude. L was a far more worthy opponent to my righteous justice than you could ever hope to achieve. I suggest you admit your real identity to him soon, as well as to those who are blindingly following you in the hope that you are L, or I will tell him who you are. I assure you the president will escape retribution for his transgression, I believe in second chances.
    Oh, and Near, you should stop twirling your white hair so much, you could damage it.
    Yours Faithfully,
    Kira.
