The Wammy's Boys except they're lost in a corn maze:

L: lost but trying to find a way to the exit, takes only right turns

Matt: wanders aimlessly, head down, playing his handheld and assuming he'll find his way out eventually

Near: sits down and stays in place, waits for his agents to come find him

Mello: tears through the walls of the maze to make a straight line to the "exit"

(bonus) Linda: paints a picture of the maze

are the brothers karamazov like a jonas brothers situation or what

Damn I really want to write another chapter to my Soichello fic, or start on a new one, but have zero ideas how to contextualize it. Why brain so sluggish and broken. 😭

forgot how fucking funny the brothers karamazov is. alyosha was like "hey dad I wanna be a monk" and his dad just went "that's great dearest sunshine son of mine. there is no justice if i'm not dragged down to hell to suffer for eternity,"

soichiro x mello is literally my guilty pleasure death note ship... less than 10 works on ao3 hurt my soul...

I KNOWWW ME TOO,,

Butttt if you’re willing to read older fics outside of ao3, here and here are two relics from the dn kink meme on livejournal and here is a Japanese artist’s personal website, which has several soichello fics in the novel section, as well as a fuck ton of soichello fanart.

-Sincerely, someone who started shipping them before there were ANY soichello fics on ao3

Does anyone older than me want to have kind of a weird problematic thing going on

I think Mello's main goal with leading Mogi to the SPK's headquarters was to create a reversed version of his previous encounter with Near.

He believes Near received more benefit by simply observing his actions from a safe distance. But simultaneously he also saved his life by giving him his photograph. Mello returned the gesture by sharing info about the notebook.

So afterwards he made Near deal with inquiring Mogi while he stood from afar but in this way they managed to raise more suspicion towards Light. Later on he gets valuable information from Halle which he interprets as Near's thank you:

I think he sees this as Near doing his part of the exchange. This is more on the headcanon territory but maybe even Near himself realised that by Mello's standards he's a obligor so he purposefully leaked the location of the task force members.

Cause otherwise this line doesn't make sense to me. How else would Mello be so sure that Near is returning the favor and not just using him again? And why the hell would Near be thankful for simply being used lmao?

Actuallyyyy I don’t hate this..

Oh and here’s a Mello

Mh... may I suggest some cuddly soichello? Ik it's ooc for them but the thought won't leave my poor little lizard brain

Tbh I do also like to indulge in cuddly soichello on occasion hehe. There’s just something about brief moments of softness within a dynamic that hurts both people.....
