Summary
After the first night, it became clear that nothing he said had the slightest impact on what happened to him, so the man decided it wasn’t worth talking. It was wasted energy. Whatever creature Reese had become, he didn’t listen or didn’t believe his ears, and he seemed to be more driven by whatever voices spoke to him and him alone. The other man couldn’t fathom what they must be telling him, but it had to be something awful.
He had lost all control of his life. He felt like a mannequin, like he had all the personal agency of a faceless plastic entity used for display, but then of course Reese did more than look at him through the window.

Summary
“You would not be satisfied with me keeping the notebook,” he gives L his response and his gaze for one instant; even if distant, cold, and detached. As L had always been.
He doesn’t see L’s hands trembling or sweat gathering in his locks. L does not seem anxious at all.
“I would have talked with you about it,” L remarks, sliding the bitten strawberry onto his palm. “We would have strategised the most efficient and merciful course of action. And agreed on how to achieve your goals without compromising my morals.”
-
L does, in fact, want to live. Needing Kira's mercy - or needing Kira - is just his deathly misfortune. -

Summary
In the silent depths of Copper 9, six battered and malfunctioning cores, having recently attained individuality, managed to escape their confines due to large tremors and distortions of gravity. Once under the command of their powerful creator, the Absolute Solver — they were one of the first teams of Disassembly Drones that were sent to infiltrate Copper 9's Cabin Fever Labs but were unable to achieve their mission as they had been confined for years by a crazed Worker Drone that guarded its abandoned halls.
Now, stripped of their sleek bipedal forms as they are unable to self-repair and left as little more than cores with spidery appendages, they were bound by a singular purpose: to locate their creator.

An adolescent in extensive pain reckons with hurt and is changed.

Summary
Bruce isn't fucking gay. That's not why Francis pisses him off so bad, why just looking at his stupid smug little nerd face sends him into such a state that the few friends he had have gotten too scared to hang out with him any more.
Except, yeah, he 100% is. And when he accidentally gets himself scanned into a computer program that lets Francis control him, his crush/victim is all too happy to take advantage.
And with the massive and terrifying bully as his new bodyguard/sex slave, who says he needs to stop there? The program can control anyone, if he can get them scanned in. And most of the assholes in his life have much less flattering excuses for treating him like shit.
Updates weekly (hopefully).

Summary
“You are dooming me,” he concludes.
Light sighs. Annoyed? It's hard to feel beneath his lies, his masks, and darkness. “You doomed yourself. I’m just dooming you with me."
L will remember Light like this. It will grow tendrils inside him. Black leather, white paper, metal pen, red. Red of L’s terror. Red of warning on Watari’s slashed skin. Red of Light’s sweet, revolting lips. Blood oceans Light has spilled.
The pen is titanium. L wishes desperately he could break it. Light’s hand closes in on his own.
-
Human souls cease to exist upon death. Death Note users end up in the world of nothingness.
Light dislikes the fact that L won't be where Light is going. Light fixes it. -

Summary
I knew this would be on the cards
I knew you wouldn’t fold
I saw this comin’ from the start
The shake, rattle and rollSo we all go back to yours
And you sit and talk to me on the floor
There’s no need to show me ’round, baby
I feel like I’ve been here before
I’ve been wonderin’ whether later
When you tell everybody to go
Will you pour me one for the road?— Arctic Monkeys, “One for the Road”
Dad… we can’t do this bullshit forever.
Maybe I want you close. You can do the mail, keep you rattling around.
Before departing dinner, Logan lays the deal out on the table—and reminds Kendall that no one walks away from him unscathed.
A dry pastel illustrated alternate scene from “Chiantishire”.
