Back Again
Yes. Its the n00b. I've returned.

I'd like to point out that I fricking hate LJ Communities cause the people are generally mean, but after a month and a half of debating and deliberating with friends on the WTF's dn forum like some kind of csi investigator, I was pushed into coming back here. I'm nervous and defensive cause of my very bad experiences on lj, but I hear that this place is the only place to go when you want to talk about EVERYTHING that has happened in DN so far.

When I was last here, I'd only read up to ch 7. So I was rightfully thrown out. NOW its different. I've read every issue from wtf's, I read them over again when I'm bored, I have even been given links by a friend for scanlations of 61-63, and raw scans of 64 and 65.

I have many militant opinions about what I expect to happen and--the dreaded theory--whether or not there is yaoi in DN.

I do NOT cloud reality with fangirl ideals, so I'm willing to hear all sides of an argument without fighting.

OKAY THEN!! :=P now that I just unloaded a fucking resume on you poor people, I'd like to make friends and have debates and be in debates if thats all right....? I'm very shy about being here.

Um....yeah....don't know what else to say then :) excpet HI

Aww, mean people suck! D: *pats* Don't worry, I won't bite. ... Unless you want me to :D

Anyways, I don't think there's canonically any yaoi in DN, meaning that the creators intended to have Raito and L as an actual pairing, but I certainly like to pretend there is. I think that the whole L-and-Raito-handcuffed thing was pretty much thrown in there as fangirl bait, and we ate it up XD There's something about rivalslash that's particularly appealing, so I think that's why so many people (including myself) like to pair Raito and L. It's not implausible, and it certainly makes for interesting fanfics.

~~I also like MeroxNia yeay... and those two random guys from the Yotsuba arc, omgwut~~

Not much of a debate, but... just my two cents. Whoo. (and first comment I think? w00t.)

Well, we had a week long discussion that was really good until some jerk decided to chime in how he hated gays.

To put it simply, I don't look at the handcuff scene as the yaoi buzz, I see it as both fanservice and a way for comedy. I simply think that the subtext is too much to ignore--I tried, I couldn't shake it lol I looked past the fact that it was produced by Shounen Jump and tried looking at it from the FEMALE author.

What I saw was a secret but obvious to the reader (who knows that relationships aren't always chrisined by sex or kissing, just look at the getbackers lol) they had a certain interesting chemistry.

And besides, they were both so much alike. If there wasn't a romantic link between them there was certainly a spiritual one! :)

Perhaps I shouldn't have talked about this, I'm sure a big argument is gonna break out, so I just won't respond if anything angry flies up. But thats just the way I feel.

	The problem was not how less you read, it was the fact you were asking questions that would have been answered later on in the manga if you had taken the time to read it first. Welcome back to the community though, I hope you find it more enjoyable now. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	glassdarkly 2005-06-01 01:42 am UTC (link)
	yes i understand that, it was hectic, but I suppose being told that L would die later on gave me a heads up and not freak out as much as I did....no thats not true, I was still INCONSOLABLE! lol jk (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	glassdarkly 2005-06-01 02:02 am UTC (link)
	Okay, then thats what I'll do, I won't force my LIFESTYLE of fangirly goodness on you innocents ^^ I just wanted to tell you what I believed. Even though I do still believe that it IS a yaoi series, but I'm not gonna say why or talk about it to anyone but the fangirls lol (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	I'm not going to say much about the whole drama bit, but, I think that, instead of running off if people don't take to you at first, it's better to stick around and prove your worth if you've got any. Also, it's really better to get up-to-date with a fandom before you start to plunge into it. Also, hi. And welcome to the community. :) (Reply to this)

	glassdarkly 2005-06-01 03:33 am UTC (link)
	Oh and just so you know as long as we're on the topic of my odd ideas, I'm also a militant believer that L is not dead. But don't worry, only for the right reasons, not just cause hes a cool character. I'm OBSESSED with Mello's sweet ass, so at the moment I don't need L. But I do believe he's the only one who has the right to kill Kira... (Reply to this)

	May I ask why the yaoi thing is the only thing you guys are interested in about me? -_- And Raito friggin hates Misa, or at least is severly annoyed by her. I love Misa. I don't know why shes just one of those dumb evil girls that I adore, like seras victoria ^^ And the way things have been in 64, it looks like Raito is on the verge of beating Misa...sad (Reply to this) (Parent)
