[[Irony|Of course Kira would never fall in love with L!]]

* [[Fleeting Passionate Hobbies]]: {{spoiler|after dumping Light}}, L takes up Nei hua to distract himself.
* [[Freudian Slippery Slope]]: poor drunk Matsuda...
{{quote|'''Matsuda''': It was so horrible. I- I feel like I've violated Misa-Misa just by listening to those lies being told to her... I don't want to have sex with two men and Misa-Misa at the same time... (*everyone stares*) No, no, I'm not with this guy, he's just my friend who has sex with my other male friend. [[Have I Mentioned I Am Heterosexual Today?|I really like women a lot and any women who want to be with me, I'll respect them incredibly hard and skillfully with all the right respectful lines that I'm going to learn.]]<br />

* [[Gambit Roulette]]: Light does several, [[Xanatos Speed Chess|having to make up many on the fly.]]

* [[Gollum Made Me Do It]]: {{spoiler|Light deliberately evokes this trope when cornered in order to sew confusion among the taskforce}}, he starts [[Talking to Themself|shouting at an invisible presence]]: [[Fighting From the Inside|"I won't let you kill them"]] and "[[I'm Not Afraid of You]]!"
* [[Heel Realization]]: Light realizes that the Kira plan isn't working.

* [[Hollywood Hacking]]: Light instigates a virtual attack on Taskforce Headquarters corrupting L's files and erasing footage of the investigation.

{{quote|'''Misa''': Noooo! Let me stay. [[A Man Is Always Eager|I know you would have gotten hard in another minute or so.]]}}
* [[Kansas City Shuffle]]: 1) L knows Light's planning something to derail the investigation and it's [[Smug Smiler|clearly]] [[All According to Plan|all going according to plan]] 2) Light is counting on L to make this assumption in order to stay close to him. 3) L is now wrong about what Light's ultimate goal is.

* [[Lemon]]: there are several
* [[Living with the Villain]]
* [[Love Martyr]]: Light
* [[Love Redeems]]
* [[The Man Behind the Man]]: Invoked and exploited: {{spoiler|Light manages to convince the investigators that he was being controlled by the REAL Kira to incriminate himself and mislead the investigation and that [[Half Truth|he is constantly being watched and guarded by two Shinigami-one keeps constant watch over him and threatens him every time he steps out of line and the other, a Shinigami that likes apples, drops in regularly to takes reports from the one guarding him.]]}}

* [[The Mole]]: Matsuda accidentally leaks information to Misa and Light.
** Also {{spoiler|when backed into a corner Light pretends to be both [[The Mole]] and the [[Reverse Mole]] to Kira—that he was [[The Starscream|coerced into working for Kira but now he has somehow backed Kira into a corner so he can't kill anymore.]] L realizes to his frustration that there's no way to prove it one way or another.}}
* [[Moment Killer]]: Matsuda. Later Ryuk.
* [[Multitasked Conversation]]: Light frequently has to communicate with the Shinigami and L at the same time.
* [[Mutants]]: {{spoiler|Since L proved that [[By the Eyes of the Blind|Light can see something that no one else can see]], and that [[Seers|he reacted to events he had no way of knowing about]], and [[Breaking the Bonds|somehow Light's chain broke...]]}} the taskforce now thinks Light has superhuman powers. Matsuda pesters him to [[Mind Over Matter|levitate something]].
* [[Nerds Are Virgins]]: played straight with L at the beginning of the story, averted with Light.
* [[No Endor Holocaust]]: When the Shinigami {{spoiler|attack Yotsuba}}. Justified, [[Blue and Orange Morality|if anyone actually died in an incident where the Shinigami didn't use their death notes they'd get in trouble.]]
* [[Noodle Incident]]: again?
{{quote|'''Light''': I could send you an email.

* [[Operation: Jealousy]]: {{spoiler|when L kisses Matsuda}}
* [[Or Are You Just Happy to See Me?]]: [[Inverted Trope]].
{{quote|'''Light''': You're hard.
'''L''' (thinking): ''No, I'm not. That's just the gun in my pocket.'' }}
* [[Power Perversion Potential]]: [[Lampshaded]]
{{quote|'''Matsuda''': Kira can control people. Maybe he's going to make all of us have sex with each other.}}
* [[Primal Scene]]: Light and L are having a moment [[Hilarity Ensues|when Matsuda interrupts.]]
{{quote|'''Matsuda''' (screaming): Light's raping him again! What do I do?}}

* [[Psychic Link]]: {{spoiler|Light accidentally sees one of L's early memories when they both touch the Shinigami apple tree at the same time.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Redemption Earns Life]]}}
* [[Redemption Equals Sex]]
* [[Redemption in the Rain]]: Light and L resolve their [[UST]] on the rooftop, which results in Light changing his mind about a few things...
* [[Revealing Coverup]]: L concludes that since Kira took the time to tamper with evidence and {{spoiler|wipe their memories}} there must be a way to defeat Kira.
* [[Scars Are Forever]]: {{spoiler|Both Light and L get hurt destroying the notebook.}}
* [[Seamless Spontaneous Lie]]: Light comes up with an elaborate one {{spoiler|when cornered- [[The Starscream|he claims he was coerced into working for Kira and then betrayed him and though he conveniently can't go into details, he has now backed Kira into a corner so he can't kill anymore.]]}}
* [[Sex Face Turn]]: Light decides he'd rather not kill L after they have sex for the first time.

* [[Slash Fic]]
* [[Smug Smiler]]: While the investigation is falling apart L notes that Light is looking incredibly smug.
* [[Sorry, I'm Gay]]: Light resorts to telling Misa this to prevent Rem from forcing him back into a relationship with her.
* [[Stalking Is Love]]: Misa is stalking Light, Light is stalking L, and L is stalking Light via surveillance and his agents.
* [[The Starscream]]: Invoked trope. When Light {{spoiler|is cornered [[Seamless Spontaneous Lie|he comes up with a new story- he isn't Kira, but he was forced to work for Kira but once he gained Kira's trust he betrayed him.]] It works as a solid defense against being accused of being Kira and some even view him as a hero but he has lost the trust he once had when the Taskforce begins to realize how [[Manipulative Bastard|manipulative]] Light really is.}}
* [[Suck Sessor]]: Near
* [[Tabloid Melodrama]]: Details of Misa's personal life are available at every newstand.
* [[Take That]]: Light and L are ''[[Boys Love Notes|riba]]'' in this fic, they are not shoehorned into [[Seme]]-[[Uke]] stereotypes:
{{quote|'''L''': There's the cultural stereotype of the uke, who receives blow jobs from the seme, which is seen as a privilege for the uke. In return, the seme gets to enter the uke, which is a privilege for the seme. However, it's considered degrading and low-status to be entered by another man, so supposedly nobody wants to be the uke and the blow jobs are seen as a way to compensate the uke for that humiliation and entice him into his role. I think you view yourself as the seme and me as the uke.
'''Light''': But those are just stereotypes. No relationship is really that simple unless there's at least one idiot involved. }}
* [[The Talk]]: Watari forces L and Light to read some sex ed books.
* [[Think Unsexy Thoughts]]: when L lets Light back into his presence, Light has to work hard on focusing on the murder case L has given him instead of on L.
* [[Transparent Closet]]: Light doesn't like to think of himself as gay even though he's only ever enjoyed having sex with men. He is forced to [[Coming Out Story|come out]] in order to convince Rem that a relationship with Misa would never work.
* [[Unequal Pairing]]: L (the detective in charge of the Kira investigation) and Light (the main suspect in the Kira investigation), however this fic subverts the usual fanfic reaction where [[Overprotective Dad|Mr. Yagami gets mad at L]] for sleeping with his son and instead he gets mad at ''Light'' because it looks like he's corrupting the investigation.
* [[Unishment]]: {{spoiler|After Light's "confession" L and the taskforce decide it would be best if Light remains under house arrest under L's supervision}} [[Just As Planned|which of course is exactly what Light wanted.]]
* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: When {{spoiler|L screws up his plan to get them back together}} Light very calmly goes up to his room, collapses into bed, and screams into his pillow.
* [[Villainous Crush]]: Light to L.
* [[Wise Tree]]: {{spoiler|the Shinigami apple tree that imparts psychic visions.}}
* [[Xanatos Speed Chess]]: Light has to scheme fast in order to save L, Misa, and himself. Fortunately he has Rem as his accomplice.
* [[Yandere]]: Misa gets really creepy...
* [[Yaoi Guys]]: Light and L.
* [[You Have to Believe Me]]: When L is sick he begins raving to everyone that Light is Kira. Everyone attributes it to his high fever.
* [[You're Not My Type]]: Light tries to let Misa down gently and when that doesn't work [[Hilarity Ensues|he tries being mean. That doesn't work either...]]
