Mello helps Near through a bout of arthritic knee-pain in this fluffy tale written for the Christmas 2017 Meronia Secret Exchange. Rated T for mild language and mention of sexy-times at the end.

Written for the 2017 Secret Shinigami Exchange. Major spoilers for the end of the series & Near's real name. Rated T for minor violence & character death. An alternate take of the events immediately after those at the Yellow Box Warehouse on Jan. 28, 2013.

Written for the Summer 2017 Meronia Secret Exchange. Prompt: AU where Mello & Near manage to work together as detectives. Can be read as a bonding moment between rivals or eventual lovers or both. Rated M just to be safe (salty language, brief descriptions of violent crime scenes, and discussion of subject matter that may disturb some readers).

An alternate take on the second half of DN based on a series of what-ifs, like: What if the notebook Ryuk stole and eventually wound up with Mello didn't belong to Sidoh, but a different shinigami? What if not all humans went to MU (nothingness) after they died? What if only 99.999999% of them did? And what if a certain serial killer had died the way he'd originally planned?
