Amnesia!Light isn't evil to me. Arguably still unstable, but not evil. I think that it won't be too hard to develop.
Well, that's why this fic is within the realms of possibility; you can make non-amnesiac-but-still-good!Light without constructing a new personality for him, and apparently already have some idea about how to go about it.
I'm not sure if Light's justice will be the same as L's. He is not the same man, after all, for all their similarities. I suspect he will have a different focus.
Light's sense of justice probably wouldn't be the same as L's, but it'd be a damn sight closer than it is in canon, is what I was getting at.
As for Near/Mello...Well, I know he'll need to avoid them somehow (to say nothing of Ryuk) but I don't want to have him hiding his past. I don't know why, but that seems rather distasteful to me.
The thing about this is, he's gonna have to hide his past, because otherwise he'd either have to confess to being Kira, resulting in either death or incarceration, or kill off anyone that might uncover the truth and then take up the position, which would sort of go against the kind of person he's trying to become. The only way he's going to be rid of suspicion is by proving that he's not Kira, which would almost certainly require finding someone else to act as Kira for the investigators.
To that end, Mikami would do anything he asked, provided it were physically possible, and Light could convince him that he was doing God's work.
