Misa and the Bear by skullanddog (T, which is probably PG-13)
Fandom: DEATH NOTE
Pairings: Many, but mainly Light/Misa and Ryuk/Rem
Length: ~4000
Author on LJ: Unknown
Author Website: Fanfiction.net | Skull & Dog on Blogspot
Why this must be read:
Canon Death Note is overall a very serious piece of fiction, but it does have some brilliant, subtle touches of humor here and there. This makes it very tempting for authors to write silly Death Note fanfics, both as a strike against the seriousness of canon and to resonate with some of canon's funnier moments.
Unfortunately, Death Note humor is difficult to pull off in fanfic form, which is why this particular fanfic is extra-unique and special. It's silly, it's ridiculous, and it works splendidly. It doesn't matter that the timeline is a little skewed and characters aren't acting quite like themselves, because those things are needed for the premise, and the premise pays off in a hilarious story.
Ryuk doesn't understand much about Valentine's day...
