L

• 100% when he was a teen, he was full of angst. He even had a few piercings.
• 1000%, he’s the kind of person to eat all the cookies/ice cream then put the empty container back in the cupboard. He also picks all the marshmallows out of the Lucky Charms.
• Not for any particular reason, but he never swears. Though once, he dropped his coffee cup and did so quite loudly.
• L gets horrible allergies in the spring.
• He has the most adorable sneeze. It almost sounds like a cat sneezing.
• L has the cutest blush. Mainly shows on his nose and the tips of his ears, and sometimes his cheeks.
• Due to all the computer screens, he’s becoming nearsighted. He has contacts and a pair of glasses, but never wears them.
• He can solve a Rubix Cube in under a minute.
• It is impossible to beat him at chess. Once, L and Light played a round and it almost ended in physical fighting.
• He isn’t a good swimmer, and dislikes deep water.
• L gets random cravings for ramen noodles every now and again, and he has no idea why because he doesn’t even like them. When he does give in, he’ll down three or four packs in one sitting, followed by immediate regret.
• The only candy he doesn’t like is -- surprisingly -- cotton candy. It’s not the taste, it’s just too sticky. He hates artificial cherry flavor. Super sour candy? Y u c k. He despises quiche from the deepest depths of his heart. Like??? Aren’t pies supposed to be sweet?? Who thought of an egg pie and wHY.
• He dislikes alcohol and has only ever been drunk once. When he is, he’s always blushing and very clingy/talkative. His also finds everything funny.
• Misa honestly really annoys him. Their personalities are pretty much polar opposites, however, so it’s sort of a given.
• L can pilot a helicopter no problem, but he hates driving. He can, but when he first learned to when he was 16, he accidentally crashed the car.
• Despite being a detective, he absolutely despises Crime TV. Not only does he know the killer in the first two minutes, he believes that those kinds of shows are completely fabricated.
• He would rather die than go to the dentist.
• Every now and again, he’ll settle down and read a book. He gets so absorbed in it sometimes he’ll completely lose track of time.
• He can play the piano really well, he just never has time to do so. However, when he visits Wammy’s, he always teaches the kids how to play.
• He finds cosplay quite interesting, but never does it.
• L enjoys anime.
• L actually really likes flowers. His favorites are roses because of the unique intricacy of the petals, and also because they have thorns.
• His #1 gift is chocolate and roses.
• L really likes Harry Potter. He’s a Ravenclaw, apparently.
• L loves soap operas. He’s addicted to them. Whenever he has a free moment, he’s binge-watching

Heeadcanons for L when he was little please?

Oh Dear Anon! I love this so much! L as a child…my weakness.

• He was a precocious little sh*t that could have tried the patience of any saint. Luckily for him Watari loved this about him and even when he was at his wits end with him, he still found him adorable.

• He corrected every adult’s grammar.

• Roger found him extremely irritating and had a hard time hiding it. Watari assumed L knew, but acted as though he didn’t. (Perhaps he was just used to people treating him that way.)

• Eventually Roger got over it and became quite fond of him.

• On the rare occasion When Watari would get him to sleep, he had horrible nightmares. Watari never wanted to pry into what they were about.

• He soon realized that it was better to just let L be L and let him sleep where ever & whenever he could. (Think of the exhausted little kid that just curls up where ever they are and falls asleep.) L never outgrew this.

• Watari never forced L to play with the other children, but when he was small, he would make him go outside at least once a day for fresh air.

• L liked to pet the occasional stray cat that wandered into Wammy’s yard.

• He would often bring critters back into his room and keep them until Watari found them and made L put them back outside. Eventually he bought L his own terrarium and let him keep a gecko.

• He preferred books to television and would often ask if he could read the books in Watari’s study.

• When L came to Wammy’s, he was badly bruised and his clothes were very dirty. When Watari tried to get him to wear something else, he became very upset. Watari got him new clothes identical to what he had been wearing when he came there and it became his “uniform” ever since. (As far as L was concerned, Who needs to be bothered picking out clothes anyway. As an adult, he is far too busy to be concerned with that.)

• He was already fluent in Japanese and French when Watari found him.

• He knew many children’s songs and lullabies and would often hum to himself when he was playing or working on something.

• L refused to eat the food at Wammy House because it was “yucky” and not like what his mom used to make. Watari began centering his meals around sweeter things in hopes to get him to eat.

• If L would at least try to eat meals, Once a week, Watari would bring L to the sweets shop down the street and let him pick out £1’s worth of candy.

• Watari spoiled him, letting his big heart and fatherly instincts towards L get the better of him, but L so rarely asked or took advantage, he liked indulging the boy.
