''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12563066/1/Home Home]]'' is a Manga/DeathNote fanfic by [[http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1821576/Out-of-Lullabies Out-of-Lullabies]] with a one-shot and an in-progress sequel.

Grace has grown up in Wammy's House, always in the shadow of L. When L returns back home after his latest case, he makes it his mission to get to know her better, despite it being the last thing she wants. Set before the Kira case.

Grace is a 22-23-year-old and one of the oldest students in Wammy's House among recognizable characters such as Mello, Near, and Matt, along with many {{OC}}s ranging from her similarly aged best friend and exceptionally talented artist Anne to the scary telepathic new kid named Jude.

As one of the oldest students in the orphanage, it is her, mostly self-appointed, job to maintain some semblance of order in the home for the gifted orphans.

However, Grace isn't content to be a stay at home 'mom' for the many orphans in the school and wants to travel the world. Causing much friction with the famous detective, and fellow member of Wammy's first group of children, L.

That is until L decides he wants to get to know her better.

It's up to Grace to figure out why, and even more importantly why she wants to as well.

----
!!''Home'' provides examples of:
* AgeAppropriateAngst: Ella has a little bit of this thanks to Jude.
* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: [[spoiler: Jude's backstory]]
* AlwaysSecondBest: Grace, though that's not why she doesn't like L, and of course Mello.
* AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Surprisingly averted. Grace gets irritated with them sometimes, but usually, it's for reasons other than the kids. Fritz is probably the closest, and maybe Near. L may have thought this way, pre-story if he considered any of them family.
* BerserkButton: L punches out a police officer because he insults Grace
--> '''Wammy/Watari:''' We would like to know why our car has been impounded and my son has been arrested if you'd be so kind.\\
'''Clem:''' Your son, my dear sir, assaulted a police officer with no provocation. So he was brought into custody.\\
'''Grace:''' No provocation, my foot! Why don't you tell the truth?\\
'''Anne:''' There had to be a reason. Did you say anything rude to Grace? That usually does it.
* BookDumb: Grace claims this is why Fritz planes tend to crash.
* BornDetective: L's successors are this, especially Grace.
* TheCaretaker: Wammy is this for L.
* ChildhoodFriends: Everyone at Wammy's house. Jude finds this out the hard way. Even Near has his moments.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: Averted with Grace and L. They hated each other as children. Fritz and Jinya are this though, and Mello and Matt are implied to be this, though it's made a little vague if it's actually romance.
* ChildrenAreInnocent: Jude making Ella cry makes everyone around angry.
* ChronicHeroSyndrome: L has shades of this when it comes to his cases.
* CrazyJealousGuy: Fritz, most definitely. Though L is this way as well.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Pretty much everyone due to being set in an orphanage, though Grace's and Jude's are the most developed.
* DeterminedDefeatist: L at the beginning of the story.
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: L
* EmbarrassingNickname: L is not fond of his new nickname: Louie
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: When Liam is introduced Mello hits him with a pretend sword, everyone waits for a reaction and he plays dead. Cementing him as an awesome character.
* EveryoneCanSeeIt: See ShipperOnDeck below.
* EvilOrphan: BB is mentioned.
* FalseFriend: Every once in a while BB is mentioned, Grace thought of him as a friend.
* FirstGirlWins: Grace is the first girl Wammy adopted, thus more than likely the first girl L ever met.
* FreudianExcuse: [[spoiler: Jude]]
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Andrew
* ForgetsToEat: L
* GoodIsNotDumb: Only one evil person has ever come out of Wammy's house for the gifted.
* GRatedDrug: An older tourist asks L where to get the "good stuff" L assumes he's talking about illegal drugs, but nah, he's just on a no sugar diet and needs chocolate.
* HeartwarmingOrphan: Ella gets a special mention. Though most of them get their moments
* HilarityEnsues: It's set in an orphanage of genius children who are all ChildhoodFriends: it's bound to get hilarious. Special mention goes to any scene with Ella and Jude together, or just about anything with Mello.
* [[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend He's not my Boyfriend]]: Grace does this on her date with [[spoiler: Caleb]] claiming they're just hanging out as friends, no one believes her, and [[spoiler: Caleb]] completely intends to make them right.
* IAmNotPretty: L doesn't consider himself attractive at all, most people agree with him.
* ICantBelieveAGuyLikeYouWouldNoticeMe: Gender-inverted. L feels this way due to most people writing him off as a freak at first glance.
* IJustWantToBeNormal: L
* InsecureLoveInterest: L thinks this way, but never really acts on it.
* TheInsomniac: L again.
* InsufferableGenius: In an orphanage for geniuses there's bound to be some of this going on.
* JustFriends: Grace and L both try different versions of this. At first, they decide to be at least friends, as they hated each other previously, with they were in the process of that L was [[spoiler: hiding his six years long unrequited love for her]] and eventually Grace [[spoiler: hides her love for him being unable to come to terms with the rapid change in her feelings.]]
* KnightInSourArmor: L pre-story, with it popping up again at different times in the story.
* LikeBrotherAndSister: L and Anne develop this kind of relationship.
* LivingLieDetector: Jude, considering he knows the truth before you even have a chance to lie. Ella seems to be able to do this too.
* LivingEmotionalCrutch: Winston was this for L as a child. When he died L didn't even try to have friends anymore. Wammy probably is too.
* MagicalEye: Jude says that his eyes are what helps him see people's thoughts.
* TheMatchmaker: Both L and Grace have one in Wammy and Anne. Anne is more forceful though.
* MessyHair: Only one time is it mentioned that L brushed his hair... and it isn't for his [[spoiler: wedding]]
* MouthyKid: Jude, at first. It doesn't last long.
* MysteriousPast: L. It's implied that even he doesn't know where he comes from.
* ObliviousToLove: L and Grace's first date is this on L's part [[spoiler: despite him already loving her]]. Taking L to see a movie set in a chocolate factory is not the best way to get romantic attention from him.
* TheOmniscient: Jude tends to get this way sometimes, due to his ability to read minds.
* OneOfTheKids: Fritz is, as Grace and L, one of Wammy's first group of orphans, and is considered a young man, but you really can't tell that he's any more mature than, say, Mello.
* OnlySaneMan: Grace seems to be this at times.
* OpposedMentors: L and Grace pre-story, and a little at the beginning to the rest of the kids.
* OrphanageOfFear: [[spoiler:Jude was raised in an abbey where all but one person hated or feared him]]
* OvershadowedByAwesome: Believe it or not Mello and even Near are overshadowed but Jude.
* PatientChildhoodLoveInterest: L attempts this for a while but [[spoiler: after crushing on her for six years and meeting some potential threats]] his patience wears out.
* ParentalAbandonment
* ParentalSubstitute: Most of the kids to Grace. Though Jude may see L this way, or at least as a big brother.
* PickyEater: L doesn't like anything but sweets, and Jude doesn't like sweets.
* PluckyComicRelief: Mello takes this role a lot.
* PsychicChildren: Jude and Ella
* APupilOfMineUntilHeTurnedToEvil: Again BB is mentioned.
* RelationshipUpgrade
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Wammy/Watari
* SatelliteCharacter: Averted very well most of the time but Jinya and Matt are this way.
* SecretKeeper: Jude knows a lot about Grace that she doesn't want to be told to anyone, and even L admits that Jude knows him better than he knows himself. He rarely tells without permission even when doing so would make life much easier for him.
* ShelteredAristocrat: Andrew
* ShipperOnDeck: Ella and Jude are huge on this to Grace and L. Wammy and Anne are as well, though they're more subtle. Ella, Wammy, and Alice because they know it would make them happy, and Jude because he's sick of hearing their thoughts as they try to hide how they feel. It isn't very long before the entire school is shipping them also.
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: Grace has very few requirements in a man, and one of those is that he's kind.
* SlapSlapKiss: This happens at least once
* SoleSurvivor: [[spoiler: Grace is the only one of her family her father didn't kill.]]
* TheStrategist: Mello during the snowball fight.
* [[spoiler: SympatheticMurderer: Grace's dad was insane after he was in prison for murdering his wife he was going to use his phone call to call said wife. Thus proving Kira to be evil]]
* TattooAsCharacterType: [[spoiler: L has a tattoo of Grace's letter on his chest]]
* TeamMom: Grace
* TheTeamNormal: Mello, Matt, Fritz, Anne, and a few other lesser characters seem like this compared to people like L, Grace, Jude, and Ella, though they could hardly be considered normal.
* TeenGenius: Every teenager in the story in one area or another. That's what Wammy looks for in his children.
* TeensAreMonsters: Jude starts out this way, but it doesn't last long.
* TroubledFetalPosition: L's preferred sitting pose.
* UltimateJobSecurity: The World's Greatest Detective L, but really, any of these kids are likely going to end up this way.
* UnluckyChildhoodFriend: If Mello has his way Linda will be this to Matt.
* UnsatisfiableCustomer: Caleb has one of these at his stall when Grace arrives.
* UselessBoyfriend: Andrew was this, though he was the only one who considered him Grace's boyfriend.
* VeryPunchableMan: The cop most definitely. Andrew also really.
* TheVicar: Ella makes Jude dress up as one for their tea party/mock wedding.
* WideEyedIdealist: Ella.
* WildHair: L states that he has to throw away his brush every time he uses it.
* WhatDidIDoLastNight: Grace has one of these. Leading to some problems, and an interesting text conversation.

* WomanScorned: L gets on the girls' bad sides a lot.
* {{Workaholic}}: L naturally.
