Ryuk [with tears in his eyes]: I am begging you, Light. For once in your life, go home. Please. Just this once. Go home.

I was tagged by @stvlti to do the last line challenge. Thanks! 👋

Rules:  you have to share the last line from your latest WIP and then tag the same number of people as there are words in that line.

A frog guy? Really?

What's wrong? Remind you of someone you know? Ryuk snickered.

...Don't insult Ryuuzaki like that.

Hey, I didn't even mention him! And I know you were thinking it too.

...

Everywhere... we see his face...

Oh, shut up!

***

There are three words in that last line so tagging (if you wanna do it)...

@stvlti tagged me to post seven sentences of a WIP and then tag seven other people to do the same.

Well this started as 7 sentences but a few more popped up as I was transcribing it with added context and yet hopefully fewer spoilers.

So here's this teaser thing for Stray from a future chapter that is yet far, far, away...

This... this didn't make any damn sense. This was all too confusing and emotionally draining.

Light just wanted to drop their armor and slink away into the crowd, to go home, but that was impossible at the moment given their current company.

"Oh hey! It's you!"

"...oh great," just what they needed--it was the Spider-Brat again. Why did he always seem to drop into their lives at the most inopportune times?

Ryan, we should have left him there, Ryuk grumbled darkly in response to his human's growing distress.

Light winced at the suggestion and the memories that came unbidden (hooked up to the machines/fire ravaging through his veins/the SCREAMING...)

No. He's an annoyance, true, but he didn't deserve all that.

"Hey, Edgelord, I just want to chat!"

Tagging if you wanna do it but no pressure!

1. Mess around, create a new playlist for Stray, my Death Note x Venom found family au fic instead of writing.

2. Try to find new music for the playlist, find tracks I haven't heard before, but also use a lot of songs listened to for years because they fit so well.

3. End up focusing a lot on the yet to be written lawlight plotline... oops.

4. Attempt to post it to tumblr and tumblr eats the post.😭

Try again, this time without individual links:
