The sound of his team rummaging around and getting dressed beyond the tile wall was both immediate and distant, the way everything had been since the blinding moment he realized the last point was his.

He was glad for it when warm arms slid around him and pulled him back against a solid chest.

If It's One That You Can Keep

Seiichi tossed his head back under the spray of the shower and laughed softly just because he couldn’t help it.

He had won.

In spite of everything, and there had been a damn lot of everything, he had lived and recovered and won. He felt so light he might float if it weren’t for the weight of water on his skin. The sound of his team rummaging around and getting dressed beyond the tile wall was both immediate and distant, the way everything had been since the blinding moment he realized the last point was his.

He was glad for it when warm arms slid around him and pulled him back against a solid chest.

"You were incredible," Genichirou said against his shoulder, tongue stroking water drops off his skin.

Seiichi leaned his head back on Genichirou’s shoulder, smiling. "Mm, so were you, in case I hadn’t mentioned that yet." His laugh turned husky as Genichirou’s mouth slid up his neck. "So, was Tezuka good for you?"

Genichirou snorted at his teasing and Seiichi turned so he could pull Genichirou tight against him, pull him down for a hot kiss.

"Not as good as you," Genichirou murmured into his mouth, satisfaction heavy in his voice.

"Just the way it should be," Seiichi purred back. This might be the perfect ending for the day, pressed tight against each other, hands running over wet skin, feeling each other’s strength.

Perfection got better when Genichirou slid down his body to the floor and closed his mouth on Seiichi’s cock.

Seiichi leaned back against the cool tile, light-headed and breathless once again. "Oh. Yes." His fingers wove through Genichirou’s hair and he moaned low in his throat as wet heat stroked over him. "Genichirou."

Genichirou was going slow this afternoon, taking his time to be thorough. His tongue slid over and over Seiichi’s cock, slow and firm and Seiichi’s fingers flexed in his hair with every curl of hot pleasure. Seiichi watched Genichirou under his lashes, eyes following the breadth of his shoulders, wet and gleaming under the shower’s lights, the bend of his head as he ran his mouth down Seiichi’s cock. And Seiichi smiled as Genichirou’s hands slid up the back his thighs to curve around his ass, encouraging. He took the offer, letting his hips rock forward. Genichirou’s moan answered his as he thrust slowly in and out of Genichirou’s mouth.

"We did it." Seiichi tipped his head back against the wall, panting. "Our promise. We kept it."

Genichirou looked up at him, eyes dark, and a soft shudder ran through Seiichi. His hand slid around the back of Genichirou’s neck and he pushed into Genichirou’s mouth slow and deep. The low sound Genichirou made sent heat straight up his spine. When Genichirou’s hand ran down between his legs, closing on his own cock, the heat turned fierce and wild.

Seiichi moaned as pleasure wrung him out, letting his hips flex hard, eyes never leaving Genichirou’s as his cock slid between Genichirou’s lips in fast, short thrusts. When Genichirou’s eyes closed and his breath caught Seiichi smiled. They stilled slowly, touches lingering on each other.

Seiichi finally pulled Genichirou up against him and they stood under the spray of the shower, leaning together. After a moment, Seiichi sighed. "I’m not sure I believe it’s over."

"Nothing ever ends," Genichirou said, quietly, against his hair. "And nothing ever starts."

"Doesn’t it? Then we’ll go on," Seiichi answered, just as soft. "We’ll all go on."

He liked that thought.

They stood close until Renji tapped on the shower wall and Akaya called cheekily that the team would leave without them. Seiichi laughed.

"Let’s go."

I think that's pretty reliable. There was another site where I got my DN, actually, but I have no idea what happened to that link. Um.

I love Raito. ♥ Not for what he stands for but because he is too damned clever by half and, as you said, unapologetic about it.

Any thoughts on L?

*thoughtful* I think L is thoroughly intellectually oriented. I think he's also just as much of an "ends justify the means" person as Raito and would be hammered flatter than a pancake under the Geneva Convention. I think that's why he's always worked alone and in isolation, and that it's seriously wearing on him to now have to be dealing intimately with people he may wind up sacrificing (the investigative team), and having to see them as real people. I think he has, about half-deliberately, avoided that previously so he doesn't have to deal with the emotional conflicts and guilt.

I find myself /really/ wondering what would have happened if L had been the one to pick up the Death Note.

The same thing, I think. The details would be different, but the shape of it would be the same. Because I think L and Raito are the same breed.

*nodnod* Yeah. *considers* With the possible exception that I think Raito is more idealistic than L. The funk L went into when his intellectual game dead-ended... I think Raito would have gone into more of a frenzy.

*grins* I totally loved the fist fight, though.

Raito is very idealistic, which pairs oddly with his cold streak.

The two of them are so damn fascinating when they play off each other. It makes me (almost) wish I had plot bunnies for them. But writing them would not be comfortable. At all.

I haven't ever thought of it that way (or perhaps not at all) but I think you're quite right about L being hesitant/reluctant in working with the investigative team. And L with the DN? That's a whole new unexplored AU. *___* (I'd love to see it. ::coughhint::)

youarereadingdnyouarereadingdnyouarereadingdn.

*wibbles*

*wibbles some more*

*laughing* And very much liking it. Some of the logic L and Raito use, in their mental sparring, seems rather illogical to me, but I suspect some of that is the translation.

I ought to finish Death Note. I'm only ten chapters shy of the end.

Let me know if you want me to do a batch upload for you -- I got everything from Stop Tazmo, of course -- and I can zip the suckers up if you like.

Yes, you should! Then we can talk about it when I get there in another few days.

And that would be fantastic. *snuggles*

81 to the end, then?

Just 81-90. I have 91-108.

Ah! Well, then. *uploading it now*

YAY, YOU ARE READING DN. <3333333333333 Now I won't feel guilty about spamming people anymore because I have TWO people who are new to DN on my FList. ^_______________^ ~~Although you'll probably still find my preferences Really Friggin' Weird, because, um, they are. =_=~~

Also? He so totally deserved Misa. That was beautiful.
>.< Misa is too good for Raito. xD I mean, I *like* him a lot, but... still, Misa deserves ~~someone like Ryuk~~ a better guy. *hugs her*

And L scares me somewhat. I refuse to consider him a knight in shining armor because, uh, he's NOT.

*hearts* Isn't Ryuk the best? He may be my favorite character. And he and Misa would be adorable.

And you are completely right about L. He doesn't shine at all. He gleams in a very disturbing fashion, instead.

... do people actually make him out to be a white knight? Even after Near and Mello come along, his chosen successors mind, both of them baby psychos, to demonstrate to us that L is not A Good Guy?

Some people just can't read what's in front of them. *shakes head*

*hearts* Isn't Ryuk the best? He may be my favorite character. And he and Misa would be adorable.
I have a friend who's a semi-serious Ryuk/Misa shipper, but I personally just ship Ryuk/all, really. xD Simply because he's so... above everyone, beyond good and evil, etc.

... do people actually make him out to be a white knight?
Well, some do, though, to be fair, I have to add that not the whole fandom is like that. =) But yes, there ARE people who see him as just a very cute good guy. *sighs* Perhaps I just need to write down my thoughts on L and calm down already. ~_~

Stoptazmo always gave me trouble, but if you still need anything I can upload it for you by approx volume or chapter if you want, to whichever sever (mega, yousendit, savefile, etc) you prefer. @.@;

Actually scratch that.

Try

free_manga - they've upped it several times there.
I'm not sure which chapters are in there, because I'm not at home, and it was the messy grouping, before I tidied it up, but appox uploads for vols
10, 11, 12 that I uploaded before.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=AB05SXUL - 10
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=JKRN1G6T -11
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YQ6J8SFN -12 and that finishes the manga off.

I also have a pilot chapter of deathnote, not part of the series, but if your interested happy to upload it for you.

*hearts* Thank you! Actually, if it isn't any trouble, the pilot would be great to have. It'd be fascinating to see where the mangaka started with all this.

This is just a really good manga. I've been biting my nails during parts of it.

It really is! I really like how the plot played out here, it was very intense to read.

I'll upload the pilot tonight! It's not a problem to upload, just I'm at school right now, so don't have access.

The pilot more of brings up the possibilities of deathnote rather than the implications.

You're welcome!

Have fun reading. =D
