Death Note film noir! L is a disgruntled detective! Light is his femme fatale!

"What can I say? I'm a simple kind of guy, I do what I want and I don't let no one tell me no different. Light, she was real society-oriented: the sort of gal who'd put leftover chocolate cake in the fridge and it'd still be there a week later. Know what I mean? All restraint, no heart. But man, I tell ya, she was a brain. Not too bad-looking, either - a shame those smarts, that pretty face, had to come with a real killer disposition."

Someone, please, write it for me? Please? v_voltaire, I know you're already working on old requests, but... *puppy eyes*.

(Hey, could this work for Naruto too? If you made Shikamaru the detective and Temari the femme?)

(Sorry for spam. 'Sis stress relief.)

EDIT: case_note. The Death Note AU to end all DN AUs! v_voltaire I love you ♥.

There's this brand-new community fanthology, which will (in theory) be producing a new set of multi-fandom fanfiction centered around some particular theme every few months. Or, not producing, compiling, since previously written stories are ok. December's theme is "Ghost Stories." Can anyone think of a good over-1000-word story that fits? Yes, this is me asking for recomendations. Take pity! pornkings, quit misspelling my name!

According to this NY Times article, Walmart has a more than two Internets' worth of information on its customers. A juggernaut, indeed *frantically tries to remember if she's ever bought anything incriminating from them, or given out her social security number*. The potential for abuse is staggering. No, I'm not just being paranoid (that too).

This is the Fullmetal Alchemist music video that finally answers the question, "Just how many special effects can you cram into a minute and a half, anyway?" Apparently a lot, although this one has more. (You have to be an AMV.org member to download the second one; the first has a direct http link. Also, SPOLIERS for FMA.) All I can say is TOO TOO FAST! AND SHINY! If I had ADD these would be perfect.

keraha, I read the Death Note fic you said was written too late at night. And I liked it, A LOT. Didn't have time to post on it, but you definately should. Post more publically, I mean.



To all you Nano participants: you're all crazy. Yes, all of you. Totally freakin' nuts.

I've exhausted myself on other people's LJs. No political rant from me.

Sing for your flist meme - #1 ("Macy's Day Parade", Green Day)
Sing for your flist meme - #2 ("Where is Love", from Oliver)

On an unrelated note: Light Light Light Light Light Raito Light. I can too adapt to change! Who's with me? Besides keraha and v_voltaire and all the people who were never wrong in the first place, I mean. (And who are probably laughing at me right now for even making an issue out of it.)

Additionally:
-v_voltaire is doing drabbles anyway! Hooray for her! (Quick, someone request Death Note. I was stupid temporarily insane and forgot to.)
-Bleach drabble at chain_of_fics. If I ask that EVERYONE WHO HASN'T JOINED PLZ PLZ PLZ DO every single time this comm comes up, will it be annoying or will it just be expected?
-I've had a change of heart and I want to use the word "drabble" correctly - i.e., only for stories of 100 words. But I own a community dedicated to their misuse, so I can't ever. Darn. I guess I'll just continue to spread misinformation then.

( Real-life Nonsense )

Go see The Incredibles. It's latest Pixar film with characters that look like they'd bounce if you threw them against a wall. Very, very Midwestern but and very, very funny. Fun to watch, too - like watching a video game! Yes, and I'm not making it sound good but it is.

Oh yeah, and
is my submission for this week's death_contest challenge ("humor").

1) Yakitate Japan!! the manga = crack
( Yakitate Japan!! the anime = as much or more crack, which really should be impossible. )

2) The Tibetan Buddhists' favorite metaphor? ( Yogurt. )

3) Notes for Death Note, ( since I liked tin's so much )

Heavy-handedness! Yay! Ugh, I swear I'll pretty these up before I do anything with them. Right now I'm dead.

4)A Question, for those interested in fannish things. (The rest of you will probably want to ignore this the way you probably ignore most of what goes on here.)

-Think about your favorite character(s). Do you like them because you identify with them, or because admire them? In other words, choose one: you ARE them, or you are WITH them. If you HAD to pick one, which would it be?
