L Lawliet x Reader Oneshots 3 // Series 2 • Death Note [COMPLETED]

Facination

A/n: I just got two ferrets (called noodle and fruitloop) and they have me an idea. Also I'm not sure if I'll post tomorrow bc it's my birthday. I'm getting so old omg.

Prompt: Misa begs L to let her have a pet in taskforce. He finally caves and she drags him to an animal shelter where he find one of the workers there rather interesting.

"YES! THANK YOU RYUZAKI YOU'RE THE BEST!"

"If it will shut you up, and you actually take care of it..."

Misa was already forcing her feet into her shoes, eager to get out and find a new best fluffy friend. It's not that L didn't like animals, it's the fact he wanted to keep taskforce clean and knowing Misa she'd pick the fluffiest animal she could find and it'd shed all over the place.

"Come on, take me to the shelter!" She said.

"What? Why can't you go alone?" He replied.

"I'll need someone to help carry all the pet gear, let's go"

He sighed, seeing that none of the taskforce was even here to help. All at an ICPO meeting. Looks like he had to.

"Fine..."

So Misa practically dragged him by the shirt sleeve out of taskforce and into the car, rambling about what animal to get and all the possible names she'd pick. Well... at least he'd get to see some cute cats...

The shelter wasn't too far away, and they had all kinds of rescued animals in need of a home. Pulling into the parking lot he could already hear dogs barking.

"I hope you can afford all this because I'm not paying" he said.

"Don't worry I'll be fine!" She replied, dragging him into the front doors.

Almost immediately one of the girls at the front desk looked up at them.

"Hey, welcome to animal haven. Got anything in mind?" She asked.

"Hmm... not really. Show me everything you have. I'm just glad this killjoy finally let me have a pet" Misa said.

"Hey, if it'll shut you up. Also you haven't told light about any of this, what will he think?" L replied.

"It'll be fine! He loves me! Now about pets..."

The girl, who had Alyssa on her name tag, beckoned for them to follow.

"This way, we'll start with the dogs"

They followed her out the back doors and were met with a row of big play pens and kennels each with a dog running around inside, going crazy at the sight of a human.

They were categorised in three groups, field dogs who needed lots of space, couch dogs who could live in smaller apartments, and non-kid friendly ones. Alyssa took them to the couch dogs section.

"So, we have a greyhound, a Yorkie and a Pomeranian. They all do well in smaller places as long as you walk them daily and train them well" she explained.

L watched and waited as Misa sat in the pen and gave each of them hugs and ear scratches. He did have to admit, they were rather cute. But he didn't think a dog would go well in taskforce. But it was Misa's pet, not his decision. After playing with the dogs a bit, she got back up and out of the pen.

"They're adorable but I don't really think a dog would work in my situation" Misa said.

"Ok, well let's look at the cats next" Alyssa replied.

L followed them both to another building where there were several cat trees and cages along with a pen full of fluffy toys. Cats were chilling on all the cat tree platforms and some sleeping in their cages.
