I changed a line or two, but this is an actual conversation I had with The Cake Genius (who, if you haven't already, should really check out)! And of course, I was Mello ^_^'

I don't own Death note! Special thanks to The Cake Genius!


The phone lit up, playing the beginning notes of the Mario theme song. Matt looked up from his GameBoy (and no, I don't mean some odd version of Mello), picking up the red cellular device. A text message from Mello. Nothing surprising, the two texted each other like teenage girls.

ChocolateLover: 'Slow day at work, could you pick up some chocolate and cereal later?'

'Yep.' Matt texted back. 'Milk too?'

ChocolateLover: 'Yeah. Thanks.'

Setting the phone down and returning his gaze back to his game, Matt leaned back in his chair, allowing it to squeak. The place was a rundown mess. Not that it mattered, it was a roof over their heads and a place to game. Speaking of gaming, Matt gave his little 'victory dance' as he beat his high score.

Gamer4Life: 'Hey Mells, guess who just his high score on that new game?! 8.8'

ChocolateLover: 'Yeah. Thanks.'

ChocolateLover: '... I have no itea wgh. It sfettnc again'

Matt blinked. Maybe this was some kind of 'text lingo' he hadn't heard of yet?

Gamer4Life:'... what?'

ChocolateLover: 'Congrats, Matt. Maybe with all that effort you could get an actual job...

Poor Bowser... Hope you didn't kill 'em.

Also I'm having technical difficulties.'

Gamer4Life: 'I see. XD'

ChocolateLover: 'Autocorrect can oink go so fat when part log the screen tdg learnt work'

Gamer4Life: 'I'm guessing... "Autocorrect can only go so far when... part of the screen won't work?"

This is fun. XD'

ChocolateLover: 'Rep. Tighter touch screan fsfoetsnt work'

Gamer4Life: '*pats you on the head* Good luck with that.'

ChocolateLover: 'Help me!? Nvnn'

Matt bit his lip, holding back laughter.

Gamer4Life: 'No, I won't help you. This is too amusing. XD'

ChocolateLover: 'My entire stat is stent opt ermine tagevvvv v c wet into apps'

"Umm..." the redhead said aloud.

ChocolateLover: '... Ok? Wtat?'

Gamer4Life: 'Yeah... you might want to find someone that will actually help you. XD'

ChocolateLover: 'It's concern on and off like thflscc got 335 mon ttjfjsff c. I'll try to Ty it fifer c'

Gamer4Life: 'Mello, do us both a favor and call me instead... ^-^' '
