Summary
Bored beyond comprehension, Ryuk decides after seeing what humans do with the Death Note, to experiment with what would happen if a human lived their whole life with access and knowledge of the Death Note. This leads him to find four-month-old Light Yagami, whom he decides to use as his test subject and has a little fun.
Light's parents, as with anybody else, can't see Ryuk and thus think Light is possessed, so while trying to find answers, Soichiro turns to a young cadet for assistance taking care of his son.
Light grows up knowing he is different but rarely bored with Ryuk by his side throughout his whole life and having little interest in using the Death Note, training in Shinigami magic and learning the ways of the world instead. But things become interesting when, after multiple incidents regarding his secret, someone else with the Death Note begins using it as the mass killer known as Kira.
Add in a dumbfounded detective and a task force all aware of Light's situation and far past caring, and Ryuk knows he made the right choice because he's found plenty of entertainment, even though he has to fight the protective instinct he's developed towards Light.

Summary
“Ryuzaki I think you’re right about me, I think that at one point I was Kira”
Light decides to trust L when he admits that he too suspects himself of being Kira and asks L for help in preventing him from becoming Kira again. L agrees, mostly because he thinks this is part of the game the two of them are playing. A game that is getting more and more complicated by the minute since chaining himself to Light has forced L to face the fact that he is attracted to his main suspect. And maybe his feelings run deeper still… With L and Light closing in on the person acting as Kira at Yotsuba will Light's admission change anything? Or are they destined to once again become enemies?
