Disclaimer: The Maiden of Autumn owns nothing.

Man, I'm gonna kinda miss you guys, too, this summer. But, I'm not leaving yet. Not for another month or so. And, some pics of my time over in Japan are probably gonna be going up on my DA page after I get back in August.

Period


Light had to respect Mother Nature sometimes. It was not every mystical being that would grant women the ability, once a month, to go on a bloody rampage and have it totally excused and socially accepted by the entire world.

More than once, Sayu had taken out her frustration over her period on him, and it was simply dismissed as the excess of estrogen and hormones that came with the occurrence. Sayu could be very fucking scary while on her period.

But Light was used to this; L, unfortunately, was not. So he tried to schedule times when he and L went to visit his parents that was not around the time of the month Sayu went on her rampage.

Of course, L wasn't one to become ruffled by things like this, and Light was glad for it. But, then again, the demon had a very different take on the occurrence, as evidenced one day when they went to visit Light's parents and Sayu was both on her period, and in the process of breaking up with her boyfriend.


"I respect whoever made the decision to let women in the army. Women plus guns on their period equals unstoppable," L said neutrally, watching Sayu continue to scream obscenities into the phone, face red and angry as she went about cutting off ties with her most recent boyfriend.

"Why do you say that, L?" Light replied quietly, not wanting to draw Sayu's attention- or wrath- to them.

L just glanced over at Light, then pointed discreetly at Sayu, who had slammed her cell phone shut, apparently coming to the decision to just go over to the boy's house and do it in person. Light felt a huge rush of sympathy for the poor sap just then.

Angrily, Sayu threw her coat and shoes on, then left, slamming the door and stormed out and down the street. Light and L watched her in silence, before L spoke up once more. "Because that… that is not something I'd want to see running towards me on the battlefield."
