REC: Hero Worship in Three Messy Steps by fallen_woman (PG13)

Fandom: Death Note
Pairing: Mello/Matt
Author on LJ: fallen_woman
Author Website: Death Note tag at Author’s LJ
Why this must be read: Because Matt is one of the most intriguing characters in the fandom - and that's saying a lot with this particular cast! This is a short fic, but it strikes the perfect notes.

There is a very vague crossover in here which most people won't notice, and doesn't matter. Consider it a challenge to find it. :)


Author's Summary: Matt started smoking because of television.

Shadow Play (The Crazy Bastard Remix)

REC: Oh, Angel by conspiredfate (T)

Fandom: Death Note
Pairing: L/Light
Author on LJ: Unknown
Author Website: FF.net Profile
Why this must be read: This story is a series of short chapters that tell the tale of L and Light after the end. Set entirely post series, this tale does venture slightly into the fluff and slightly into the sugary, but… it has some truly beautiful moments and is well worth the read.
