The Aftertaste Of Death [1] by oursolemnhour49
- Recommended by whiteladydragon 00
- Status: Ongoing
- Synopis: "Taking the world from a god is an act of sacrilege requiring will, courage, and an intelligence to match the god in question. Having two of those three traits is a problem for the would-be desecrator, but it won't stop her trying." Basically, what if Light won the showdown at the Yellow Box Warehouse, having killed Near, the entire task force and SPK, and the only Wammy’s child left to stop him was...Linda?

Justice And Vengeance [6] by theonlyone101
- Recommended by Theweirdwarrior
- Status:
- Synopsis: An AU retelling of the first 3 manga volumes, only Naomi isn't killed by Light and gets to meet and work alongside L.It retells the early chapters (where L tries long-distance surveillance), but makes just enough small changes early on to create a major ripple effect that ultimately leads to a very different climax and ending. Vaguely has some shipping-type moments between Naomi and L, but not enough for it to be a shipping fic.
