Disclaimer- I do not own nor do I desire to own the characters and locations from "Death Note." I sort of like the fact that my name won't be written down by a mutinous underling. Oh well, with that out of the way, enjoy!
"Light?" Ryuk whined. "You never take me out anymore" he complained even though the ever-studious Light didn't even bother to look up from his book.
"I never Took you anywhere, you just have a tendency to follow me. What place other than the produce section in a supermarket would be of any interest to you? Not to mention the fact that you're invisible and can phase through the walls of any building."
Ryuk took time to think this out. There had to be a loop-hole somewhere in Light's logic. It was true that he just kind of floated around tailing Light. So what, if the supermarket was always his number 1 place to go? Seeing as he was currently lounging with his lower half dangling through the living room ceiling, the whole special abilities thing was still working.
Light watched rather painfully I might add as each thought distorted the shinigami's features. He saw that it was time for him to speak as Ryuk acknowledged the absence of his gangly limbs. "If you can leave me alone for a while then I'll buy you a bushel of apples."
"I can't believe that you'd even believe for a minute that all I care about are apples! I'm leaving and never coming back!" Ryuk glared threateningly before turning his back on the boy that he'd found to be so interesting.
Light began thinking about the possibility of contemplating the thought of coming up with an apology his deeply hurt frie-…partne-…thing, when Ryuk made a dash up to the television screen. After only seconds he turned, picked up the death note momentarily, and vanished through the ceiling.
"Ryuk wait." Light whispered until a particular scene on the t.v. caught his eye. "He wouldn't." Ryuk was stupid, impulsive, single-minded and high strung, but, was he brain dead? Yep, if it wasn't for the fact that the big idiot only ate apples, he'd make a killing selling whatever it was that Ryuk smoked.
The Fruit of the Loom commercial went off. Light sighed as each person waved at the camera.
Mint/Basil, Green Grape, Purple Grape and…Apple
"Well perhaps I can squeeze a day or two out of this disaster in progress." With that said, he picked up where he left off in his book.
What is in store for the poor mascot, only Ryuk knows (not that that's a very pleasant thought, now that I think of it.)
