I find it amusing, so long as it's not too explicit. That being said, the only yaoi pairing I accept would be Sebastian x Grell and even then it's mostly for laughs.

...What have you found, you poor thing? Another Cloudx Sephiroth fanart?

MikamiXMatsuda, actually.

I wouldn't mind it so much if it was halfway plausible, but it's not. They never are.

Well... Some are plausible. That being said, the excuse of "hate-sex" doesn't appeal to me. ^^;

It wasn't hate sex.

Hm. Aren't Mikami and Matsuda on two different sides? I don't see a reason one of them would want to approach the other, unless Matsuda was made a wimpy uke and raped by Mikami.

...(shudders) Eh. I'm more of a yuri person. That shouldn't really be all that surprising...

It's not. Something about Mikami surviving spurting blood fucking everywhere, and then Matsuda falling in love with him or whatever, and then they're both redeemed.

It was a fanfic.

@Addy: Matsuda is a cop. Mikami is easily the most insane character in the show. And considering the rest of the cast, that's saying something.

[up][up][up] Uh, ever heard of Death Note, Addy? Matsuda's a lovable dork of a cop and Mikami... Uh, I shouldn't probably say much about him, maybe that that he's a lawyer.

I tend to stay away from those kinds of fics.

So... yeah. I have yet to find a fandom that's not completely overrun by this stuff.

Actually, I think it might be even worse in Death Note than it is in FFVII. FFVII, you can just write something exploding, and then Cloud and co. go out to stop it or whatever. Death Note, you have to have crime, and twists, and people playing chessmaster with one another, as these things tend to go. So people barely ever write that stuff to begin with, and the ones that do write just figure it's easier to write yaoi or self-insert fics.

See, that's why I've pretty much given up on Death Note fanfiction altogether. The fan art is rarely any better, either, both on Deviant ART and Pixiv.

As horrible as it is to say, stuff like that has actually made me adverse to Beyond Birthday from that one novel (haven't read it, but I know what happens in it).

It's always like, "Ooh, BB is liek sooo sexay because he's pretty much L except he kills people and messily eats jelly! I'mma write a fic where he kidnaps Light/L/Mello/Near/(Any other male character who could be construed as attractive) and makes him his lurrve slave, 'cause that's totes hawt!"

Well, you could always try to go for some slice of life in AU. Dunno, like Light and L taking a day off and going somewhere, still handcuffed, leading to various shenanigans.

And now, I'm off. I'll be back in a few hours.

I did find one parody fic where BB becomes "pregnant" with L's child... it's hilarious. I'll post a link later.

But yeah...

(I dislike slice-of-life AUs almost as much as I dislike yaoi).

There's also this movie that was supposed to come out in 2011. I found a first draft, but it was horrendous. Luke was killing criminals to avenge his dead mother... and that was the main plot. I think L was mentioned once and had a grand total of one line. Also, apparently the Death Notes are like the One Ring or something, and there was no Ryuk, either.

Luckily, Shane Black happens to be a fan of the manga, so he put his foot down. But now it's been delayed even further.

Aw geez, that's worse than when the rumors of Zac Efron being pre-emptively cast as Light were going around. God, people. xC Hope that when it finally does come out of development hell, it'll at least be halway decent.

It's reallly kind of uncanny, though...
