been watchin death note recently and after thinking about lights stance on abortion i’ve figured out how exactly it would go
L: oh, light, ive been meaning to ask- what’s your stance on abortion?
light: abortion?
light, internally: shit! this is another test to see if im kira, isnt it?! okay, think! what would kira say? he’d want to say something that would make him sound powerful- but wait! i cant just be misogynistic about this! if i say i think it’s truly a crime, then i sound misogynistic AND like i’m kira for casting such judgement on others— no! i cant say i support it, either, because that could point towards me being kira as well! eliminating possible threats and future criminals could be seen as a kira move, or even as me doing the opposite of what kira would do! dammit, L!
light, internally: wait! i have to think outside the box. i can’t give a simple one way or another answer! both options have too much influence to make me look like kira! i know! i have to say id get a woman pregnant and stay with her no matter her option! no, hold on- that isn’t enough! i have to say id get pregnant! and not just from some medical implant, no- i have to get knocked up by another man! that’s it! this is how i prove im not kira!
L, internally: if he says some gay shit hes gotta be kira
“if I was pregnant I’d just make up a name for the fetus and then write it in the– um….”
