Chapter 10, A mysterious conversation
AN: Sorry. I completely failed at keeping a proper schedule. I really shouldn't have said I was going to have a schedule until I could at least write one chapter in advance. I couldn't think of anything to write but I couldn't write about a lack of ideas because I did that last time. So this chapter is something I was going to write later, but I decided I should just do it know, because I can't think of anything else. This is the Mello interview I mentioned earlier. From now on the Q&A's will be called interviews.
"Welcome back to Q&A chapters. (AN: They're called interviews now) Whatever." said Light "Today's chapter we have Mello, also known as Mihael Keehl. Before I ask the questions I'm being forced to ask, I have one question for the author. If you're okay with that of course. I don't want you to break my arm or something. (AN: Yeah okay) Are we not going to adress what happened last time? (AN: Huh?) Oh come on. Did you really forget what happened in your own fic? Bethany murdered me! And then she was killed by Misa! Are you really not going to acknowledge your own plot? Or the closest thing this garbage has to a plot. (AN: HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT! I reset the timeline! I erased your memories! That chapter wasn't canon!) I started reading your fanfiction. (AN: Okay, I guess that makes sense.)" "I have no idea what is going on." said Mello, who had been there the entire time. "I'm supposed to interviewed and instead you're talking to some voice in your head. Also, what's this about chapters and fanfic? You are completely insane." "Oh yeah. You're here. Uh, I have another question, if you're okay with it. (AN: Okay) Are you okay? (AN: Huh?) Are you okay? You seem to have some anger issues and stuff. (AN: Nah, it's just comedy) And some of the recent chapters have been kinda angsty. (AN: I just wanted to try something different with my writing) Okay, I just wanted to make sure you were okay. Chapters 7.5 and 8 were really angsty. It got me thinking. For a mary sue you actually managed to give her some depth. I mean, she went from a flat mary sue to an BEEP Woobie. Wow. Won't even allow swear words for trope names. (AN: I'm not against swearing or anything, I'd just feel embarrassed showing my work to other people if it was full of swear words. … I just realised this discussion of Bethany's characterization sounds like I'm using you as a puppet to compliment my garbage fanfiction.) Normally I'm a puppet used to insult your fanfiction. You know … reading your fanfiction got me thinking. Am I even Light anymore? Was I ever Light? I started reading some stuff about Death Note online and … Light, the canon Light isn't really a good person. (AN: Yeah he's kind of terrible. Well not just kind of. He's a murderer who manipulates everyone so he can become a "god". You're okay though. You haven't been in character really. You were the one person who was going to be in character, but I failed at that. You ended up being a snarky voice for the part of me that thinks my fanfic is garbage) I honestly don't know who I am anymore. My entire life has been a lie. The universe didn't really begin until Bethany showed up. All my memories from before where you started writing are false. It's strange. To have your whole world start falling apart, then learn it only just began. It's scary. I don't know what to do. I don't know what to feel. It's weird. I feel like I changed, but the old me was never real. It's hard to feel any emotion when you know your life is utterly meaningless. At first I was angry at Bethany. I thought it was her fault. But her life is just as meaningless as mine. She just didn't know it. She didn't destroy everyone's canon personalities. She didn't bend reality to her will. You did all that. But you doing it doesn't make you a horrible person. You just wrote fanfiction. With no anger towards anyone, I'm just kind of meh. I don't care. Eventually you'll stop writing and our meaningless existence will end. But I not scared of the possibility of this ending. It's not like I'll die. I never existed in the first place. (AN: I actually want to end the fic now.) Really? (AN: THis sequel was always pointless. I tried to keep it going, but I couldn't I have no more ideas. This story should have ended a long time ago.) Okay. If you feel you aren't enjoying writing this, then I have no problem with you stopping. (AN: I still want to write fanfiction, I just want to do something different. Light, OC, whoever you are, I think the rest of the chapter I just want explain some stuff to the readers. So your dialogue is no longer needed. You and Mello can leave. So some things were supposed to be hints towards things in future chapters. Foreshadowing and stuff. First off, the [the barrier weakens] line from chapter 9. There were supposed to be various ominus lines in future chapters. At some point, there would be the line [i no longer am confined to the rules of this BEEP universe] except it would have an actual swear word instead of beep. If anyone in the reviews asked about it, I'd say that I had no idea what they were talking about. I never decided, but either the ominus messages would always just be their with no explanation or their would end up being a fight against some eldritch horror. Second, the au chapters would slowly start referencing previous au chapters, culminating in Light yelling at Bethany for shooting him and Mello running away from the group to avoid being arrested. That's pretty much all I had planned that you will never is some other minor stuff that never got mentioned. Matt's hair color was supposed to actually be revealed in the interview. I couldn't actually think of questions for Mello, so no questions were actually asked. Instead of his canon color or his fanon color, Matt in DN,ILiL has his blue hair from the video game. That's all I wanted to say. It's time for Death Note, Insanely in Love 2: Twice the Insanity to end. I just don't enjoy writing it as much anymore. Writing it is still fun, but it feels more like a chore. Looking back at the first fic now that it has been several months since I started it, I still really like it. But even though it hasn't been that long since I started the sequel, I don't think it's that great. It's still funny. It's still good. But it's not great. So I want to write something different. Thank you. Not many people read this, but to the few who do, I want to thank you. It means so much to me to read reviews and know that other people actually read my fanfiction. Thank you for reading this story, now it's time for it to end. Goodbye, from the mysterious person who wrote this.
The End
