Ha, the guy who fell over was surprised to be in the presence of the guy who owned Ryuk as a pet XD

Lucky that Light didn't feel much about being killed by Ryuk and having to live as Shinigami now. That would have made his existence especially miserable. One could argue that it is miserable anyway, but it's all in attitude, and Light's too full of himself to believe there's nothing left :)

Nice! Yours was the first - Light turns shinigami- fic that I liked. :) Were Misa and L also shinigami? The clingy one reminded me of Misa...

Well, old habits die hard. Too bad Light is so bored... At least he can make some conversation with Ryuk... Great story, descriptive, and the mood you inspired is very fitting to the Shinigami realm.

You know, this is exactly what I thought of when I put together the "Don't think anyone who's used a Death Note can go to Heaven or Hell" and the fact that the way to kill a Shinigami was described, but the way to BIRTH one was conveniently left out. If I read between the lines correctly, I think you're implying that the worst users of the Death Note, the ones who take a lot of lives, are the ones who look the most deformed--the level of deformity being proportionately equal to their writings in the Death Note.

Of course, with this course of Shinigami birth, Kira could live forever--Light could finish what he started with no threat of being discovered or apprehended. It would be interesting, though kind of scary. There really would be a god judging people.

Excellent. This is exactly what I envisioned for Light after he died. Especially the meeting with Ryuk.
You are a wonderful writer. Keep it up.

Oh, I like this! Like how Light's the same as he ever was, even as a shinigami, same old hardworking, egotistic killer... it really fits in with the way the manga was, and it was written very well. (I wonder, were all the boils all over him because of all the people he'd killed in his past life as a human?) Really good work, I enjoyed it.

Sincerely,
Acey

Oh wow. This is seriously interesting. I've never seen a DeathNote fic using this point of view. Love it. Keep up the great work!!

*has not read Death Note yet* I promise, before the summer is over, I will have. But anyway, back top business.

-I- liked it. I liked it from the getgo, when you described the old Shinigami. His character, however menial came alive, and I could envision him with astonishing clarity. I enjoyed Kei's characterisation as well - third person limited works well for your writing style, I think. It's not totally objective, and it is clear how Kei acts and responds to various situations and/or dilemmas.

The middle (for me, at least) gave a feel of what the setting as like, and how the various apparatus functioned in Shinigami-land, without being overly descriptive of long-winded. And then the end came, and sparked intrigue (which I assume would be familiarity for those who have read the series). I think this is an excellent portrayal of what came to be after Light's death. (Is that right? I think it is, but if not... beat me over the head with a hammer, please.)

The pacing was laid-back, hovering at an area that is on the border of being contemplative and slow; I feel that is succeeds at the pace at which the information is displayed.

...Now I want to go read DN. Alas, I cannot right now. *tear*

Satisfaction. That's what this fanfic gives me. After finishing the Death Note manga I'd wondered if this could end up being Light's fate as well. I thought it was written wonderfully and everything was in tune with the manga. It was an excellent fic and I felt the pacing was exactly as it should be.

Awesome story! I bet Rin was Misa! I wonder if Mikami was there? Regardless, I loved the story. Keep writing!

your story is a bit dry and boring. Also, it doesn't make the best of sence. The story was basically over at the beginning when the reader gets the hint that Kei is Light. You're a decent writer though. You should really add more intensity to your stories in the future.
