Ivy for the lovely @flowers-all-around-me for getting me Hardspace: Shipbreaker (best game ever!!)
[ID: a digital drawing of Ivy Alexandria wearing an ornate red dress. Ivy is a white woman with red braided hair and shaved sides. She has some wires and computer parts on her exposed temple, and a blue brain-like organ is visible. She is sitting under a tree on a sunny day, reading a book in her lap. The sunlight dapples through the leaves of the tree onto the grass, her dress and face. She is wearing an old-fashioned red gown with puffy sleeves and silver embroidery of flowers. She is also wearing white summer shoes. The drawing has a peaceful and warm feeling. End ID]

Lucy and the boys' first non-surprise date. Lucy tells them about Mina and Jonathan, happily married BABIES, and gets engaged.
Which is, of course, just a precursor to all of them becoming Arthur's sugar babies.

I think one of the reasons why Light’s death feels so much more satisfying in the manga than it does in the anime is because he genuinely has nobody.
In the anime, after Matsuda shoots him, he cries out for Misa and Takada who very obviously aren’t there (and nobody says anything), but Mikami, who is, despite everything, still devoted to him, literally takes his own life to distract everyone and give Light a chance to escape. He still dies in the end, but there was still someone there who was on his side.
In the manga, Light initially orders Mikami to help him, but, upon realising how pathetic Light is, he yells at him, telling him that he isn’t god, he is just scum. Light then cries out for Misa, but Near reminds him that she is not there and is currently staying at the Teito Hotel. He calls out for Takada, and again, Near reminds him that she’s dead (Near’s silence in the anime vs his reminders in the manga seem like a small difference, but I feel like they put a lot of emphasis on how no one is there to save him and it’s his own fault). He starts pleading for someone, anyone to help him. Finally, with no one else to rely on, he turns to Ryuk and begs him to help, but obviously Ryuk doesn’t care and writes Light’s name in his death note.
In that moment in the manga, he is truly alone. There is nobody who both can and wants to save him, and he dies in the warehouse, screaming about how he doesn’t want to die. He doesn’t get the opportunity to escape, he doesn’t get the flashback of his past self, and the tone doesn’t feel sad, like in the anime. It just... happens.
