(https://www.tumblr.com/[blog-name-here]/filter-by/role/original) YOU CAN FILTER BLOGS BY ONLY ORIGINAL POST NOW?

it looks like if you don't want to do it the url way, you can also click into the search bar at the top of a blog, click the sorting widget on the right, and toggle "Original Posts" to on! it used to be that that filter only existed when paired with an actual search term but it seems to work for the whole blog now!

L meets with the task force in hotel rooms… light meets with kiyomi in hotel rooms…

the impermanence the cycle the way L comes into the story with no sense of original location (the first room we see him in is empty except for his computer) and light comes into the story with a very solid sense of original location (the yagami house) that he tears himself out of and never recovers from

it’s such a throwaway line and maybe is undone by the time we see sayu at her coming of age ceremony but it’s important to me that sachiko decides to move them all out to the countryside after sayu is rescued from the kidnapping and we never see the original yagami house again. four years after light left and the sinkhole in his wake finally caves in

& back to L this read relies entirely on that first room being only temporary which is headcanon but like, it would surprise me if it wasn’t - L spends like a lifetime moving from place to place to place and then for the last three months of his life stays in one location entirely under his jurisdiction unlike the hotel rooms which are borrowed. he keeps thinking about leaving but he never does. he chains himself to that place

i've got the kind of eyebags that make people in movies say 'you look like hell, detective. go home.'

[ID: Death Note fanart video that starts with Light curled on his side in bed, covering his ears, dead-eyed as colorful lights flash over him. We zoom out to see L is crouching beside him and watching a music video intently. The camera switches to over L's shoulder to reveal he is watching the Caramelldansen music video of cartoon girls dancing. (His webcam is taped over.) The colorful lights keep flashing as L grins, putting a thumb to his mouth, while Light sits up next to him and the camera zooms in on his furious glare.]

[ID: Death Note comic of Mello and Light both looking vaguely tired. Mello says, "i rig my base to explode when things go wrong." Light says, "i rig my drawer to explode when things go wrong." They look at each other blankly and then start kissing.]
