L liked sweets. Some could say he liked sweets more than solving the Kira case. Some could EVEN say he valued his deluxe waffle cinnamon cake over Matsuda's life.
That was true up until the day he met Lil. She showed up in the office as a new intern; one of Soichiro's apprentices. She stood with one hand in her pocket, the other holding a large lolly-pop. L was already intrigued. She noticed his gaze and smiled at him; her eyes creasing up at the edges, then she did something that surprised L. She waved. Now what surprised him the most was that he found himself waving back.
Light nudged him, seeing his gaze averted from the monitors for the first time in two hours.
"What's up with you, Ryuzaki?"

A Halloween Short Story
Her heart pounded. Her breathing was fast. Her eyes were wide.
Sally sat with her body wrapped around a large pillow, her eyes barely peeping over the top of it at the television screen. She winced and shut her eyes tight, hearing the girl scream as the chainsaw revved,
“WHY DO YOU PEOPLE HATE ME?” She yelled in protest, aiming her voice at the other side of the bedroom door. A lot of snickering was heard, then a girl's voice called back; sounding as smug as possible,
“We don't hate you! We just want to make you suffer!”
“But that's not fair! It's not my fault I didn-”
“-You didn't do your dare, so now you're paying the price. It's only fair.”
