what is up with all these people making good DN icons?
I think you mean "flamika and one or two other people." And, of course, me. *glances at own, ridiculous icon* Seriously, I'm pretty sure sixty percent of LJ comments with Death Note icons use flamika's.
Also, I have a personal theory of Matsuda being gay for Light.
I don't know how popular Light/Matsuda is anywhere, but apparently L/Matsuda is fairly popular in the Japanese fandom. Also, somebody posted a Matsuda/Light's dad doujinshi in one of the comms awhile back. I think they were merpeople at one point. It was a very weird doujinshi. Anyway, I don't think I've ever seen a Matsuda/anyone fanfic in English. Not one, even with Sayu, or with Ide, which by the way? All through 108 I was like, "oh, look, Matsuda/Ide is finally canon."
It's funny you should say that, though, because when Light confessed in 104, and then spewed rhetoric in 105, people were like "IT'S OKAY, MATSUDA IS STILL ON LIGHT'S SIDE. HE WAS SAD WHEN LIGHT CONFESSED. ALSO IF MATSUDA LETS LIGHT BE ARRESTED AND GET THE DEATH PENALTY, LIGHT WILL NEVER GIVE HIS BLESSING TO HIM AND SAYU." (who, by the way, I'm pretty sure is still catatonic at the end.) Then 106 happened, and here's what people said:
"...UMMM.
I THINK THAT WAS A TYPO.
...WAIT I KNOW. MISA WILL SAVE HIM."
I laughed a lot. Anyway, let's talk about Ryuk for a second. Hot damn, I love Ryuk. He is my second favorite character and oh my god was he ever having a good time at the end there. Now let's talk about the very end. LAME. I disagree that it is Misa, and will argue until I'm blue in the face that it is L and Light's mpreg lovechild. Possibly I will be blue in the face because you will be strangling me in frustration, which I will deserve richly. Even so.
And Mikami (minus the last freak-out at the end) was gorgeous.
You're not kidding about the thing at the end. I was all, "what happened to his face?"
Don't worry about having to justify rooting for Light, as long as you don't actually believe in what he does and start acting creepy like all those TOWNL forum weirdos. That's what happens when the protagonist is the bad guy. It's such a simple, yet effective way to give the story depth.
