Choosing to write namimatsu or Mikamatsu 😔😔

4, 10, 11, 12 & 15

Btw, I love how you explain your headcannons!

god, it's been so long since i've done anything for namimatsu, i can't wait to get into it! and thank you 🥹 you're very kind!

4. what they do on date night. typically, they go out to dinner and sit at a table with the most privacy or get a balcony table to themselves. namikawa takes matsuda to places he enjoys, which are usually on the expensive end, and always pays. matsuda does not protest this - people aren't meant to know that he's dating namikawa in the first place (due to the very recent or even ongoing investigation of yotsuba). by expensive places, i mean exclusive clubs or golf courses and the like. does namikawa like golf? no. does matsuda? no. do they go at least once anyway? yeah.

10. what TV shows they watch together, and which ones they hide from the other. both of them watch the news together in the morning when matsuda is over at namikawa's, and they watch it all the way through so matsuda can catch the weather segment and namikawa can catch the stock market segment. namikawa doesn't care for television, whereas matsuda is an avid watcher. namikawa will sometimes sit with matsuda and watch whatever he is watching, but he will be doing it to keep matsuda company rather than for the show itself. matsuda gets VERY cuddly on the couch, and namikawa gets to use watching the tv as an excuse to let him cuddle up (despite his sensible nature).

11. what their first impression of each other was. their first meeting was when matsuda broke into yotsuba and fell into their meeting room. namikawa's first impression was that matsuda was rather dumb, going in at night instead of at daytime to promote misa-misa. he didn't spend much time thinking about him because he THOUGHT that he would die anyway.

matsuda was terrified of all the yotsubas and that he would be killed right there and then, he was focused entirely on instinct so really regarded them as an entity rather than as individuals. when they met later on, matsuda was tentative, because namikawa was confident and didn't seem like the type to take no as an answer.

12. what they do for their anniversary. namikawa takes matsuda out for a night at the town, they go to a theatre and watch the opera (which matsuda hasn't been to before, so yay for him!) then go to a restaurant for dinner and discuss the show. they don't do gifts. namikawa isn't a romantic man, but he knows matsuda likes the expensive places he takes them to and enjoys new experiences, so he tries to incorporate both.

15. what they would change about each other. disclaimer before i answer this, i choose to interpret this about what they change about one another (over what they would change about the other if they could choose, i prefer to think about the development of a relationship and how it advances).

namikawa learns to be more compassionate over the course of his relationship, matsuda is often late to dates or to coming over because of his long hours with the task force and needs leniency that at first, namikawa does not give. matsuda's work days are often exhausting and he typically works seven days a week as opposed to five like namikawa does, so when he gets home he needs to not be told off and treated gentler. matsuda is very grateful for this.

matsuda learns to think first and then act, he is usually impulsive and acts on pure emotion or vibe alone. namikawa is the opposite, acting on logic, and over time, matsuda begins mimicking the same pattern. it starts with things as insignificant as what drink to buy or what fruit to choose at the supermarket. he wants to make namikawa proud (because inferiority complex, yippee) so learns some things from him. namikawa is satisfied with this, thinks it's just him wisening up and doesn't realise his impact on matsuda.

NAMIMATSU: I NEVER TOLD YOU WHAT I DO FOR A LIVING

Some of these titles are just ridiculously long. See game details here.

And we'll love again, we'll laugh again We'll cry again and we'll dance again And it's better off this way So much better off this way I can't clean the blood off the sheets in my bed And never again, and never again They gave us two shots to the back of the head And we're all dead now

I don't really know anything about their dynamic, haha. You can probably tell just based on how short it is compared to the others. Anyway, I'll give it a shot!

The first bit seems more Matsuda-ish. He's optimistic, he sees a happy future beyond the Kira case. Not sure who would call it "better off this way" or what exactly it would refer to, but it seemed to fit anyway.

The next is Namikawa. He seems the most sensible out of the Yotsuba group, though I suppose that's because he was the one who was like. turning on them. so. But even Light had regrets and doubts about killing and Kira (for about 0.2 seconds and in the Yotsuba arc respectively), so I think it's fair to say someone like Namikawa would have some too. He can't clean the blood off his sheets (don't reference Macbeth don't reference Macbeth, I have a problem with that) and iirc he doesn't participate as actively in the killings after a while – "never again". The last bit is literal; he was killed. I think the way the song describes it is similar to execution style, which perhaps he also thought he deserved.

IT WAS NEARING NOON AND THERE WAS STILL NO SIGN OF THE DETECTIVE. Namikawa pushed his sleeve up just enough to triple check the time on his watch. His gaze then lifted, flickering towards the large window that ran the length of the cafe front. Right as he did, he caught a glimpse of someone rather familiar starting to walk away and across the street. Touta Matsuda. He lost sight of him soon after and a light sigh parted his lips.

What was that about?

Namikawa grasped the straw of his drink between his thumb and forefinger and stirred it around in the glass, hearing the cubes of ice clink against the side as he did so. After taking one final sip, he leaned back in his chair and let his arms fold loosely across his chest. So, did that mean they weren't going to be having lunch? And after he'd come all this way... Namikawa shook his head and stayed right where he was.

He didn't chase after people.
