Vows | Self-insert | Angst
I’ve been having a block. So have this as an apology.
Based off the song: Bleed for Me — Crape
~*~*~*
Content: I’m using a self-insert (J) instead of (Y/n) for this one because I can’t imagine this being an x reader. But J is still reader-ish so whatever. I also just need to write this out and put this SOMEWHERE. Forgive me <3
Warnings: Heavy character death, aggressiveness, spoiler warning for Death Note
Notes: Y’all don’t gotta read this if you don’t wanna. It wont hurt my feelings at all. I just need to get something written or I’m gonna explode. I’m blanking on ALL of my requests. I’m also throwing you into this. Also also, if the format is weird, its cause im on my phone. It’s also 3:37 am where I am.
Some info on J: She grew up with L in the orphanage. Later got into a relationship with and married L. Adopted Matt, Mello and Near with him later on.
~*~*~*
J sat, in shock. Her eyes wide as she stared at the news screen. It felt like she wasn’t breathing, that her heart stopped. She honestly wished it had.
It was almost as if Kira had gotten her.
The news report showed a car. A red one. One she didn’t recognize, but she recognized the driver. The car was littered with bullet holes, the class broken and shattered. A body laid limp against it, a young man. He was in the same shape as his car, but with blood all over him.
His own blood.
She knew that young man. Tears began to gather at her eyes, her hands began to shake, and she finally felt herself breathe. But it hurt. It hurt to breathe. It hurt to live.
The young man was her son, Matt.
“Mom?” Her youngest son, Near, called from the floor behind her. “Are you alright?”
She didn’t know what to do. She didn’t want to turn to Near and have him see her in this state. He was old enough to, but that didn’t mean she wanted him to see it.
Near got up and carefully stepped over his toys at his mothers silence. He was able to see the news. He knew he just lost his brother. He wrapped his arms around his mother, pressing his face into her hunched over back.
J finally began to break down and cry into her hands. Matt was gone, and Mello was who knows where. They were always inseparable, but she couldn’t help but worry for her eldest son.
Losing one son was enough. It felt as if her whole world was crashing. Again.
She’d already lost her husband four years ago — how much more loss can she take?
She twisted her body to hold Near. J wanted to comfort her son as much as Near wanted to comfort his mother. Near never hated his brothers, even though they ganged up on him after L practically chose Near.
J sobbed into Near’s shoulder. Near kept calm, but so desperately wanted to call out for his brother. J wanted it to be a prank, a stupid, very elaborate one that Matt would always pull.
But he would never get back up again. He would never pull another prank on them again. J’s lungs seized at that thought, making her crying worse. Matt was gone, and he was never going to come back home.
~*~*~*
A few hours later, J was getting off the phone with the police and making arrangements to have Matt’s body transported to England for his funeral. Her eyes puffy, mouth dry, and throat sore.
Anthony and Gevanni grimaced at the sight. In the time they’d known J, she was not one to cry. She was always a very quiet, stoic, yet verbally aggressive woman. If Near had brown hair, they’d think he was her biological son.
Gevanni handed her a glass of water. “If there is anything you need, just let me know, okay?”
She nodded to the raven haired man. “Thank you.”
Gevanni nodded and comfortingly rubbed the woman’s back for a moment before turning to Near on the floor. He’d been more quiet since Matt died. He had no idea that Near had brothers. All Gevanni knew of his family was his mother, and that his father died four years ago in Japan from Kira.
“Near, are you—“
J’s cellphone rang. She picked it up and saw it was Halle. Halle was tailing after Mello when he took Kiyomi Takada. She’d lost sight of him for a while before, J guessed she’d found him now.
“Halle, did you find—“
“Miss, I…I’m so sorry.”
J assumed she meant about Matt. But then she realized, Halle wasn’t here when J told Gevanni and Anthony about Matt. Her heart suddenly dropped to her stomach again.
“What…what do you mean?” Her voice grew shaky, earning the attention of Near.
“Mello, I…he…Takada, too…” Halle seemed to be traumatized. “They…they…”
“Spit it out, Linder!” J snapped, feeling tears gather up again. “What happened?!”
“Mello and Takada…are dead.”
For the second time that day, J felt everything shatter. For the second time today, she was rendered into a shock. Her grip on the phone was so tight she was sure she’d break it. Near thought her eyes were so wide that they’d pop out of her head.
“Mom? What happened.”
“M-Mello…” She slowly turned to look at her son. “Mello’s dead, too.”
~*~*~*
J had never gripped a counter so hard in her life. Her nails dug into the material. Her face wet from the sink water, brown hair draping over her face. The guilt swamped her head.
Four years ago, Mello and Matt had landed in Japan in secret to help the Kira case behind L’s back. J usually kept her cases as far away from her children as possible, but Mello is— was a very stubborn man. Never took no as an answer. And Matt never stood for being left behind, so he tagged along.
J had no choice but to let them do it.
After L died, just after his funeral, Mello and Matt wanted to officially join the task force. J refused, said she’d stay in the orphanage and help. Mello then wanted to join some antagonist group to counter Kira and fight him. J fought him on that decision, they had an argument, and Mello took off with Matt. That had been the last time she’d seen Matt, and the last time she’d seen Mello until he came to retrieve his picture.
‘I didn’t even get to say goodbye.’
J let out a whimper before sinking to her knees. She pushed her knees to her chest, feeling the guilt continue to swim around her.
‘L…L, I failed. I failed our children, I failed you.’
She let out a sob before putting her head down, crying for the third time that day. It had been about a week since she buried her two sons next to their father, L, and grandfather, Wammy. Roger had tried to offer support, but it honestly meant nothing to her.
She appreciated the older man, but she needed to go through this process alone.
‘But what about my only surviving son?’
Near’s face flashed in her mind. Her eyes shot open. Suddenly, J became terrified that she’d lose Near next. Her grief and guilt quickly turned to anger. She narrowed her eyes, still crying.
‘No. I may have failed L, Mello and Matt, but I will not fail Near. He needs me now more than ever.’
With newfound definitiveness, she stood and finally turned the sink off. She looked at herself in the mirror. She looked like shit, as one would if they lost their husband and two eldest sons.
There, J made two vows. The first being she would catch Kira, even if it meant she’d lose her life next. It was better than Near dying. J would not allow her only family left to die. She needed to remember L’s take on the case.
Light Yagami. He was the suspect.
‘Light Yagami,’ J growled to herself. ‘I will rip you, and anyone you love, to goddamn shreds. That I vow.’
Light Yagami would feel the same pain J felt. She was sure of it.
I agree with this, but from the clips I've seen from the anime (I haven't watched it yet, only read the manga) the anime seems to have cut out a lot of Near's thought process, so I can see why people might think his deductions come out of nowhere. Correct me if I'm wrong, of course, but obviously in the manga there are pages and pages of just near thinking, and I'm not sure if that was adapted. Of course the point about being influenced by light is the main point, and very much the truth.
I think most of the reasons people dislike Near from death note don't have anything to do with Near himself- they have to do with being unable to recognize Light as an unreliable narrator. The most common reasons people cite for hating him aren't really things we're shown about Near, they're things Light says or thinks about Near. The idea that Near's just a worse version of L- Near doesn't actually have that much in common with L if you think about it for more than a second; the similarities are mostly aesthetic. Near's motivations and behaviors are pretty distinct from L's. The idea that he's unemotional- especially in the anime, near can be pretty straight-faced, but just because someone's facial expressions aren't readable doesn't mean they aren't behaving emotionally. Near is shown being annoyed, afraid, and more often showing positive emotions- acting amused, smug, etc. The degree of pettiness he shows towards Light alone is indicative of feeling something. The idea that his deductions come out of nowhere- we're shown how he comes to his conclusions. The idea that he's less competent or intelligent than a character like L- just plain not true. We know these things aren't true. We're shown that these things aren't true. But you know who does think of Near as a worse copy of L, who doesn't see Near's emotions, who doesn't witness his thought processes, who has a very strong and very low opinion of him, who is regularly shown to be wrong in his judgements of other characters but whose opinion some fans still, for some reason, tend to take as law?
