(Intro post still somewhat under construction.)
This is a blog shared by three Death Note fictives: Matt, Nate, and MK. Not a space for roleplay, but a regular personal blog.
If we've shared this blog with you directly (or you're in the Death Note fandom and we followed you from here), then we've talked to you before (if not always openly as ourselves) and count you as an ally and perhaps friend; in any case, someone we'd like to get to know better. Or you may have found this through our system blog, or somehow (?!) elsewhere on Tumblr. Regardless of how you made it here: hello! Questions and interaction welcome!!
The concept was inspired by seeing what a couple of our partners have done with their own blog @dismanibus – which helped the three of us realise we also wanted (needed?) a space of our own like this. Being active in DN fandom has been strangely lonely for us three at times; so what if we got to connect with people as ourselves to counterbalance that?
If you're unsure of etiquette, our system wrote some pointers on how to interact with our fictives here. You do not have to read the whole linked post if uninterested in that – what we want to underline here is, mainly, this part:
[If] you're talking to us about stuff related to our source (= this world's fictional depiction of our life / world / fictional character counterparts; in this case, the Death Note manga and "Wammy's trio"), please be aware we might have different things to say depending on the angle we approach that discussion from. "Your opinion on the piece of media, this world's fictional depiction?" often doesn't strike the same chords as "What about your actual life and memories from before?"
Since we already engage with the former plenty in our fandom spaces, we will be focusing mainly on the latter here. However, we are open to discussing our own perception of the fictional depictions, and how our personal experiences and identities affect & inform our fandom participation, including our own fanworks – many of which were a collaborative effort with (some of) the rest of our system, some of which were more personal to one (or two, or all) of the three of us specifically.
(You can find the rest of our system at @thesaltinstitute. Our fandom blog will not receive a direct link here, because that isn't the main focus of this blog, but the URL shouldn't be difficult to guess if we've ever interacted directly; we can confirm in DMs or private-reply-to-ask if necessary.) More detailed introductions, tag list, and picture credits under the cut.
