Alright! Well I haven't written any death note at all since last year… And im hoping this will explain all.
D is for
DONE WITH DEATH NOTE FANFICTION
I peruse the content of this site, only to have my mind tainted by what death note truly isn't. It isn't about Mello and Matt and Near being together. It's not about their childhood. It's not even romantic in the least. So why? I know there's a lot of holes that they want to fill. Example: Mello's, Near's, and Matt's relationship.
Matt was an accomplice of Mello's. I don't believe that he's gay for Mello either… He admitted that Misa was attractive. And I don't think they ever mentioned Matt being the third runner up. All that was stated was that he was also in Wammy's.
Mello… Oh goodness. The things you guys come up with for Mello. Really? Mello isn't some easily soft hearted person. The only time he ever expressed care for anyone was for Matt when he said, "I'm sorry Matt. I didn't mean for you to be killed." That brings me to their relationship. That doesn't mean they were together. If your friend was killed because of your plan that wasn't supposed to kill them, wouldn't you be sorry too? Anyways, Mello died. Now, we all realize this. Another thing, why do people think that Mello's gay because of the way he dresses? It's leather. You see a lot of people wear leather. And what I don't understand is why so many people hate Near…
Speaking of which, Near. Uhm… do they hate him because he was L's successor? Do they hate him because of his personality? Maybe because they rather Mello be L? I'll never know. But if any Near haters happen to read this, also applies to Mello or Matt haters, please, tell me why. I believe in hearing both sides of a story. And Near…. All those who portray him as some happy go lucky child in the past… It even says it in the How to Read that he had social skills of 1. Which is really very close to zero, nada, nich, cero. Ok?
And my last… well not my last because I have so much more to say but I just won't. I keep my ratings on KT. Why am I reading some very sexually implied stories about them? I really don't think that any of them were in love with each other… I mean seriously, having the characters fall in love with each other? There was no love in death note besides Misa's sadly one sided love for Light.
So it is with these that I refuse to read anymore death note Fanfiction. I don't mean to offend anyone. I mean, there are really great writers here. But think about it. If you just changed the names in some of your stories, it wouldn't even be famfiction. It'd be one incredible story that you wrote. If you want an example, take a look at my story, 'Daddy?' It gained a lot of favor so I promise you, it wont be a waste of your time and it'll prove my point. I change the often said name in that story to Mei and replaced the paragraph with a physical description of her. Then I gave it to my friend who said it was a fantastic story. This friend of mine also watched Death Note and never even suspected that it was for Death Note. Its THAT easy.
Anyways, I really do like some of the stories here. Despite myself… But I will quit writing ANY Fanfiction period. I will still keep my account open however, because I like some of the stuff I've written too. Of which I am planning to edit into their own stories for those of you who might've been thinking 'Hypocrite…' Ah, no. I really don't like hypocrites. Anyways, have fun writing whatever it is you're writing. But just try to ask yourself: Is any of this even Death Note anymore?
And even though I know I's Fanfiction for Death Note, is any of it even death note related? Besides the characters. Just twist some lines, change some names and then you have your own story that is not related to death note but in fact, your own original magnificent little story.
And if I haven't made it clear to some of you, I'll rephrase this: I QUIT WRITING FANFICTION.
Sincerely, Luma Shine
