L is a fairy. Specifically a changeling.

Think about it:

- No parents. He was raised in an orphanage. He could have easily simply spawned in and Watari went: "Oh- a new one."

- His biology does not work like a human body. Next points will expand on this.

- He loves sugary things, which is an element common in fae stories.

- In fact, he ONLY eats sweets. Bro's diet contains 0 meat and 0 vegetables. Only pastries and fruit. Yet, he seems to be getting all his nutrition fine.

- He exclusively squats because his posture has a significant impact on his intelligence. This is not how the human body works. There is no evidence of squatting making you any more intelligent, let alone by 45%. (Even if posture and squatting vs sitting has impact on things such as circulation, there wouldn't be a notable impact on blood flow to the brain to the point it has any effect on intelligence.)

- He does not gain weight from the ridiculous amount of calories he is eating every day, because he is burning all those calories with thought alone. While thinking does use up calories, it does not burn THAT much. Bro should be obese. While he likely mainly said it to roast Misa and call her an idiot, there is likely merit from the fact he is a twink eating exclusively sugar alone.

- Also, male fairies are typically depicted as twinks

- All fairies are also commonly depicted as bare foot. L is barefoot like he has never seen a shoe in his life.

- L also has trickster elements to his personality, always either twisting the truth or straight-up lying. L does not say an honest thing.

- He also has a sense of mischeif as well. VIA Pickpocketing Misa for her phone, making it feel like he is groping her, and proceeding to go: "I will find and catch whoever groped you for this transgression!" When Light tried to call Misa, L made a point to let Misa's phone ring and hold it out before answering...while being barely a yard away from Light.

- Also, just...the way L holds things as though he wants as little contact with icky germs as possible.

- Does bro even blink????

- And, at never any point, he never reveals his name. While he does do that for security reasons and because he is a professional, this is also a common fairy thing because revealing your name to certain species of fae enables them to be able to steal it.

- He also has no human sense of morality. He has no qualms against things such as tortue. L can AND WILL commit war crimes if it is to further his goals.

- Fairies are not inherently immortal, as well. There are some fae that do die, and it is common in media to depict them as mortal. Even Tinkerbell in Peter Pan is only semi-immortal and can easily die due to a lack of belief. Therefore, L being a victim to a Death Note does not contradict him being fae.

- I swear I saw him with wings at one point.

He doesn’t know I can’t read.
