For some reason I can't PM you? So I'll just leave these here? ^^; [hider=L and Misa Ideas]So these thoughts were compiled while I spent a week on a cruise a few months ago so the lack of internet and getting bored of playing cards with the folks, I came up with these. Some would be a bit AU-ish. Mostly a mix of slice of life, cute fluff and tension/mind games. Thought A: Set between episodes 14 (Friend) and 15 (Wager) Light decides to send Misa off to befriend L. At this point, L and the other suspect Misa is the Second Kira and decide to have L take her so-called bait. L is intrigued as to how she could be the Second Kira and eventually the two begin to form a genuine bond, prompting Misa to refuse to tell Light L's real name. Thought B: Set prior to Misa being gifted the Death Note, likely near the beginning of the series, if not prior to its entirety. Misa is beginning her career as a model and meets L at an autograph signing who is actually a genuine fan of hers. They hit it off and become friends. Soon after, Misa is attacked at night be a fan, prompting Gelus to save her life, unknowing extending Misa's lifespan. When Rem gives her the Death Note, she shows it to L and they decide to see whether it is real or not. L is adamant about not using it, of course, but Misa (like Light) sees it as a way to help people. When L discovers she has used it to kill the one killed her parents, he is hurt and angry and relinquishes ownership to Misa. With his memory erased, they part ways as no longer friends until Light catches her eye. Thought C: Likely set just prior to the anime, again some flexibility required on this plot like a few others. Due to no new cases popping up, L decides to take up a teaching position at To-Oh University. Meanwhile Misa has landed a role in a new film where she's an undercover detective who is also in school, so she asks to take a few classes at To-Oh to get more into character. The school allows this and she and L end up connecting as Kira continues to kill criminals. L starts to work more with the police and decides to bring in Misa who seems to be good ally. He then decides she could be used to get closer to his main suspect, Light Yagami, likely around episode 6 (Unraveling) or 7 (Overcast). Thought D: This can take place during or after episode 14 (Friend) as Misa is upset by Light's lack of real affection for her, she decides to stop fooling herself. Misa turns to L's team and tells them everything about the Death Note but it still isn't enough to hold up in court. They need more evidence to convict Light. Light's father is now torn between being bound to family or to the law as both sides are now feeling pressure to make the final move. Thought E: Likely set during or after episode 14 (Friend). Due to their shared love to sweet things, L and Misa encounter one another at a local cafe. There is only one chocolate sundae left and they both want it so logically they decide to share it. They enjoy themselves as L is happy to get away from the task force while Misa is a bit rundown after so many photoshoots and appearances. When Light hears what Misa did, he asks for L's name but Misa is unable to recall it. Thought F: Set during episode 25 (Silence). Rem is too smart for Light and does not believe his statement that in order to save Misa, she'll have to kill L and Watari so she does not. Instead things continue to progress without their deaths occurring. Thought G: Set during either episode 24 (Revival) or 25 (Silence). Fearful of his demise, L fakes his own death in order to protect himself and his guardian, Watari. They then go into hiding. Before they go they do destroy all video and photographic evidence as to prevent Misa or anyone with the Shinigami Eyes to kill them. Some time passes and Misa crosses paths with L. By now she has given up on her future with Light, seeing how violent and selfish he truly was. She still has her Note but does not use it often so that no one suspects anything. Misa, is also hiding from Light, while she's legally changed her name so it wouldn't match her other one, she still looks over her shoulder. Even though she herself could write his name in her Note, she is hesitant. Upon rekindling her friendship with L, she wonders if maybe she should turn on Light once and for all. Thought H: Set somewhere in the beginning but before she decides to become the Second Kira and pine after Light. Being a real fan of hers, L enters a content and wins a date with Misa. She take him back to her place and it is there where he stumbles upon her Death Note. He does not touch it as she requests but she does spin a wild yarn about Shinigami and the power to kill anyone. She assumes he won't believe her but he does. Thought I: Rem drops the Death Note in a cafe but as opposed to just Misa finding it, L and Misa both find it and use it to combat Kira who is playing Got. Thought J: A more of a mega rewind here. Misa ends up growing up in same orphanage as L, Near and Mello. Misa admires L greatly and grows up pining for him. While L is a master of deduction, Misa's own genius lies in more creative and fun puzzles. She is soon brought in to aid L in his task force to bring down Kira. Soon L suggests using Misa to get closer to Light. Thought K: Set during either episode 13 (Confession) or 14 (Friend). In a funny twist of fate, Light actually suffers an accident and dies, prompting Misa to make his dream a reality in his place. She assumes Kira so now she and L are playing their own game of cat and mouse. It's clear something is wrong. L is grieving the loss of his friend but also his number one suspect. And while Misa is assumed to be the Second Kira and now the one and only, she goes into hiding, preventing the police from arresting her. *Thought L: L ends up being adopted by Misa's parents and they grow up together before their parents are killed, prompting them to be taken in by Watari. Thought M: Being a fan of L's detective work, Misa offers up herself to them in order to catch Kira. In this situation, Misa has the Note but not the Shinigami Eyes and her parents are alive, not allowing her to have any ties to Kira or his deadly actions. Thought N: Set during episode 25 (Silence) Rem has had enough of Light and kills him instead of Watari and L. Rem writes it so that Light confesses and shoots himself. L is distraught and so is Misa. Another possibility is that Rem somehow blames L and Misa vows revenge. Thought O: Set anytime between episodes 18 (Ally) and 20 (Makeshift) as Misa wants to make Light jealous, she flirts with L. Much to her surprise, L uses this to his advantage and flirts right back, hoping to rile Light up some or cause one of them to let some piece of valuable information slip. Thought P: Set during episode 17 (Execution) Light's father ends up killing both his son and himself, letting Misa flee. She does just that and starts a new life in either northern Japan or London. Some time passes and L and her cross paths. Still unable to remember anything, she and L are able to start over. L has moved on to solve other cases, even though the one with Kira still bothers him greatly as there was no true closure. A mysterious letter arrives in Misa's mailbox as it's from her past self, giving her instructions on where to find the buried Death Note. Now she is unsure what to do as she is now bonding with L and doesn't wish to think she could have been the Second Kira all along. Thought Q: A plot in which there is no Light Yagami as Kira but instead it is Misa Amane who takes it upon herself to judge the world. However her killings are harder to track as she does not stick to one singular method (like Light's heart attacks). The Kira Investigation is kept on their toes as Light is brought in to aid L. Together they try to catch Kira but soon Light comes into possession of a Death Note and his own ideals are brought into question. Would he still help L or turn to help Misa? We can figure out if Misa has Ryuk or Rem by her side since it might be fun to mix things up, or not. Who knows! Thought R: Set in Victorian England, we redo the plot basically. Light doesn't cleanse the world but merely the general area. L comes from a wealthy background as usual and the two go up against each other. Misa is a Madam and together she teams up with Light against L but eventually betrays him. This setting can likely be applied to any of the other plots. I just adore the setting haha.[/hider]
