latest fanfics - tag game!
I was tagged by the lovely @neallo (thank you so much!) — rules of the game are to post the beginning lines of your most recent 10 published fanfics and then attempt to tag 10 people
I'm only linking my Death Note fics here and I am very tired so I'm not tagging anyone rn I'm sorry x.x
1. A Death in the Family (meronia, ongoing)
2. stop makin' a fool out of me (meronia, ongoing)
It is 5:50am a week before Near's 28th birthday when Mello receives the call.
He checks the number on his work phone; number blocked. He probably should have expected that.
When he answers, he doesn't bother asking who it is.
3. Beyond Warped (beyondmane, paused)
“Japanese rock bands could take on the British and American alternative bands of the 90s at their own game ... and in doing so, they had laid new ground for Japanese rock to develop in its own way from this point on.” - Ian F. Martin, Quit Your Band! Musical Notes from the Japanese Underground
“A welcome breath of fresh air in the burgeoning Japanese alternative rock scene, Blue Light stand apart from the crowd with powerful lyrics, expert musicianship, and a compelling dynamic, specifically from lead vocalist Ryuzaki Rue and bassist and backup vocalist L, who act as visual and musical mirrors of the other, bouncing off of each other sonically and visually, leaving audiences dazzled.” - Misora Massacre, Real Read Magazine, 2004
4. Assumptions (lawlight, paused/possibly discontinued)
Light plucks an apple from a bowl, setting it on his tray as he slowly makes his way down the line, picking and choosing his preferred breakfast items. This early in the morning, To-oh's cafeteria isn't quite so crammed as it is in the afternoon, the fellow students around Light more subdued. It suits him perfectly, a sense of calm at the start of the day that Light appreciates as he finishes filling his tray and goes to pay before turning toward the tables.
5. a pain that I'm used to (lawlight, complete)
It's been weeks since L has played a decent game.
That isn't to say that he's lost. New York has swept the competition, winning game after game. But with Yagami off the ice, L finds that the wins feel hollow. Because what's a game if you have no equal opponent? No one to match you and push you harder?
6. Pantone 3517 C (meronia, complete)
As soon as Mello gets home from the store, he wants nothing more than to crawl into his bed for the next week.
7. starlight, moonlight (lawlight, complete)
L Lawliet isn't exactly surprised that his boyfriend wants to kill him. That would require a level of naiveté and thoughtlessness that he doesn't possess.
It's still uncomfortable, though.
