Nat River, a strange orphan girl adopted and brought to London by the Great Gentleman Detective 'L', is following the footsteps of her adopted father as the Lady Detective 'Near'. When L's case brings him to America, he insists on bringing Near with him to New York. There, the sensitive, shut-in Near is drawn into the wild parties and terrible violence of mafiosi, bootleggers, and drug dens. When a gangster's case practically lands in her lap, she must work to prove that old-world deduction can prevail among new money murderers.

The detail is absolutely amazing, so I recommend you click for the full resolution.

Looking back, it should have been obviously. Perhaps he had been to young, or simply too detached to notice. Near has only ever seen L's face once.

Relationship: Mello | Mihael Keehl/Near | Nate River

Mello is the fastest starship pilot in human history, since the disappearance of the legendary L. Her ship is an experimental new technology, with a computer unlike anyone has ever seen. At hyperspeed, a human being's reflexes aren't enough to react in time-- but a machine, without human judgement, cannot be trusted alone. They must form a perfect link, in order to survive. The HMS Near Horizon takes off today.

Days 5 and six: the sun and the moon

In tarot, the moon represents deceit while the sun represents victory and the truth coming to light. Together, they made me think of the warehouse scene.

@nearsbday : DAY 8 - "THE WORLD"

The world is too heavy Too big for my shoulders Come take the weight off me now. I'm like a kid who just won't let it go Twisting and turning the colors in rows I'm so intent to find out what it is This is my Rubik's Cube I know I can figure it out.

an unusual proposal

rating: E | category: M/M | words: 4.5k | chapters: 2/?

“So,” Mello says. “What do you think?” Near scrutinizes his rival. Mello fidgets with the chain attached to his pants, seemingly anxious but still gravely serious. The proposal is… unconventional, to say the least, and logistically rather complicated— there are at least four-dozen things that could go wrong, and that’s just off the top of his head. It won’t be easy. His decision, though, is easy. He does not want Mello to die, and this, strange as it may be, seems like the best way to protect him. “Yes,” Near says. “I’ll do it.”
