The Last Human
I do not own Death Note, nor its characters.
I am Rem and the last human I killed was L Lawiet.
This is who L was:
A very famous detective, who solved many famous cases. Remember this for future reference.
This is how L lived:
He had very simple tastes, but a very extravagant up bringing. His world had always been the best, therefore he was the best and deserved as much.
This is how L lied:
L lied gracefully, the words slipping from his lips like water, easily as if he were talk about the weather. I observed that this was very difficult for humans to do. L was very good at it, so I did not think that he had ever told the truth. He was very cool while telling these lies, and, after all, why shouldn't he have been? His word was the truth.
This is how L loved:
Passionately, in ways I did not expect his cold heart to do. His sharp body, lithe and terribly feed, was filled with warmth, and he was generous with it, if you were of a precious few that felt it. He had few lovers and only one companion, but his true love ran him dry of all the warmth and love he'd had going through his veins. He'd have denied it, but he gave his heart very carelessly away to a boy whom he knew would crush it. That is when I saw L first have doubt. I thought he was very brave, for the sort of person he was.
This was how L died:
Tragically, but in a noble fashion, like a fallen war hero. He never cried or begged. He simply met his fate, as if he'd known this was the way he was to die all along. L died very quietly, and slipped away, as if he'd never been there to begin with. Death met him and I saw him look him in the eye. Only a few people have done that. I figured L Lawiet would be one of them. He asked if that boy could come with him. Death said no and L cried for one time only.
I felt sad for one time, that L Lawiet's precious first and last tears should be shed on such a vicious human. Then I turned to ash.
L Lawiet, aged 25, died, on November 5th, for the simple reason of being fatally human. It could have been Kira (who knows? Maybe it was…) or it might have been his heart, but I know that L Lawiet was the last human to die because of me and I was very happy, for one time, that I had the honor of being the one to write his name.
the end
A.N. Hello. I just wanted to write something for L, because I missed his birthday, and I thought if Rem talked about him, he might feel a little better about his life.
When you think about it, wasn't Light such an awful person, L, such a selfish, yet caring person, and Rem such a cynical one? Odd that it strikes me now...
