SERIOUSLY, GUYS, SOMEONE WRITE/DRAW ME LIGHT/HIMSELF. PLEASE. HE IS SUCH A NARCISSIST AND THIS NEEDS TO EXIST. I have a mental image of Kira!Light pinning down non-Kira!Light's wrists and smirking at him, and it is amazing. I would love to bring it into the physical world. It is such a shame that I have no artistic ability whatsoever ( Read more... )

Snap the third shackle, on his bare ankle - his bare ankle? surely he was dressed, it wouldn't be proper for a Yagami to simply throw off his uniform after coming home... But, no, it was comprehensible. His mind, in a state of wildness, could go anywhere, and through his own inventiveness end up sabotaging a greater aim. To properly achieve what he needed to achieve, he would need to keep it focused. Contained. Shackled.

"You have thought along these lines before. These are not new philosophies, they have been passed down and down the lines, from great thinker to great thinker until finally they reach perhaps the greatest... and in you, in your circumstances, these philosophies finally find a way to express themselves. You have the tools to be the ultimate expression of the law. To do any less would be to let criminals go unpunished. To let criminals go unpunished would be to go traitor to the law yourself. To hold to consistency you must write at least one name in that book, and if you'll write one alone, make it your own."

Snap, the final shackle, and with that final focus Kira was visible, straddling him, his hands on Light's shoulders, and Light for the first time appreciated his form. Strong, lanky, golden with health and righteousness... This was the form of the ultimate arbiter, the man who was more than man, Nietszche's ubermensch turned to precisely the opposite will, and this was what Light could become. If he accepted it. If he started the work. If he ascended to become the final answer to the philosophy of civilisation.

Kira's body was warm against his own, and when Kira's teeth found his neck, Light realised he was smiling; the smirk of a man who has managed to meet his destiny.

I'm going to just wait around and watch the Riona-flailing begin, okay.

Also hi you are sort of amazing.

Hi! Thank you! It is cool of you to say! In the end I'm basically just a performing monkey, though, and I don't even have cymbals.

Amazing Light/Kira fanfiction is superior to cymbals in almost every way. Even in a band, amazing Light/Kira lyrics would exceed even the best cymbal-player.

I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT TO SAY

YOU ARE AMAZING

It is such an effort not to break into a massive ridiculous grin and laugh in delight and flail off the sofa, but my brother is sitting next to me and he would probably wonder why and that would be awkward.

Right. First point: yes, you should have stayed up another forty-five minutes writing this. This was one hundred per cent the correct decision.

Second: LIGHT ANALYSING EVERYTHING

(all right, I am not going to be able to keep up a 'first, second, third' structure; my present state is far too gleeful to be so coherently expressed)

Light! Recognising the situation as a hallucination! Calmly analysing what aspects of the hallucination might represent! His musings on the significance of the shackles fill me entirely with delight.

Kira! Being so very persuasive! Seeming so very reasonable! Expressing the mindset of the criminal in mathematical terms! Being warm where Light is cold!

they have been passed down and down the lines, from great thinker to great thinker until finally they reach perhaps the greatest

Oh, oh, oh, I love Light's ridiculous narcissism so much. ALTHOUGH NOT NEARLY AS MUCH AS I LOVE YOU.

You have the tools to be the ultimate expression of the law. To do any less would be to let criminals go unpunished. To let criminals go unpunished would be to go traitor to the law yourself. To hold to consistency you must write at least one name in that book, and if you'll write one alone, make it your own.

YOU ARE JUST SO BRILLIANT I CANNOT EVEN EXPRESS IT.

And that ending! And everything!

Thank you so, so much for writing this.
