When Halle arrives at the scene of the burning church, it is interesting and funny (not actually, but to me) how it illuminates reveals where her priorities and allegiances lay.

Her horrified reaction is immediate, yet her only thought is, 'Oh no…Mello!' ...Not a single thought or iota of concern spared for Takada, the literal victim of the kidnapping who btw is also inside the burning truck; the woman she'd been with nearly 24/7 for almost two months, and whose safety she was directly responsible for.

Has anyone else ever wondered exactly how Aizawa and Matsuda's visit to the Wammy's House actually went down? I'd love to hear any thoughts and takes on it people want to share!

In fact the specifics of this little recon mission has been a bit of a brain-worm to me for, oh...YEARS, lol. I had to get it out my head so finally wrote a fic with how I envision it here ⬇️⬇️.

Please give it a read if you're so inclined!

Ngl, and I know it's been said before - but the fact that Near is already keeping Mello's picture in his shirt pocket as early as chapter 62 (and god knows for how much time before then) and is so protective over it, before he even has any real reason to think Mello is involved...it makes me insane.

girl help! the popular fanon interpretation of my favorite character is stupid as fuck

[optimisticgardenhologram]

this is the most random bit of information about Watari, just thrown out there and never explained or explored. like who are these people? if he had a wife, does it mean it was just a lavander marriage because how the hell does she not care about him being out and about 365 days a year? if we are talking siblings, they also must have seen him with this random young adult at least once. isn't it sketchy. or is just Light speculating

[optimisticgardenhologram]

Actually B and Mello were so right to be insane about it. In fact I'd argue becoming a serial killer or joining the Mafia are relatively conservative responses to growing up in the environment they did. Is Near more well adjusted or is he just repressed? You saw how he crushed that action figure's head with his bare hands

Writing a Roger fic and now my brain is Roger-pilled.

The Wammy's Boys except they're lost in a corn maze:

L: lost but trying to find a way to the exit, takes only right turns

Matt: wanders aimlessly, head down, playing his handheld and assuming he'll find his way out eventually

Near: sits down and stays in place, waits for his agents to come find him

Mello: tears through the walls of the maze to make a straight line to the "exit"

(bonus) Linda: paints a picture of the maze

are the brothers karamazov like a jonas brothers situation or what

[optimisticgardenhologram]

Damn I really want to write another chapter to my Soichello fic, or start on a new one, but have zero ideas how to contextualize it. Why brain so sluggish and broken. 😭

forgot how fucking funny the brothers karamazov is. alyosha was like "hey dad I wanna be a monk" and his dad just went "that's great dearest sunshine son of mine. there is no justice if i'm not dragged down to hell to suffer for eternity,"
