Gotta support my fellow melanin babes đâ¨
I was thinking Mello, L, and Matsuda with a punk gn!black S/O who tries to introduce them to their music and general way of life? đ
DEATH NOTE BOYS WITH A PUNK! BLACK S/O
Pronouns- just you, you, and you.
MELLO
When Mello first saw you he was intrigued. He knew what punk was obviously but actually seeing someone who was punk in person was a different story. The way you carried yourself with confidence and with your individuality oozing off of you, he was a bit smitten. So he asked you out. In the long route even if you said no- he was going to ask again anyways.
After dating for sometime you thought it would be good to reallt explain to him how you were and what it truly meant. What you were for. And you were for non-conformity. You were more politically active than most and constantly stated your disagreements with media and politics today, and even with Mello basically just staring at you- there was no embarrassment or shyness in your tone. You meant what you were saying.
Over time, Mello began to slowly absorb you and your views. âAnti-whatever sort of system we live inâ was what he chanted after you had gone on rants about what you believed was truly right in such a system, and it was so adorable because he truly thought that was impactful. So adorable in fact that everytime he said it you stopped everything to coddle him and embrace him. And every time, you were being fooled because he did it on purpose. 1 - Mello, 0 - You.
Now your music was not something that was hard for him to get into. He enjoys seeing you headbang or move in such ways to. Maybe you were playing classic Green Day, Circle Jerks, Misfits, whatever it was there was always something that stuck with him. He enjoyed the emotion involved- he could feel angry or frustrated or just motivated in general through the music.
Sometimes he saw you checking and would honestly be so zoned out watching you. Whether your hair was in locs. Shaved on the sides, or completely shaved off there was something about watching you and your focus on your appearance. He understood that being punk wasnât just black clothes or objecting any modern rule, of course not. It was a way to reject the political as well as social norms of the world. And Mello loves attention and standing out so he actually started buying clothes like yours too!! Heâs not completely punk but he likes trying for you.
L
L is a complicated soul he is. When he first saw you he was honestly confused. Why did you look like that- were you angry? Why were you so stone-faced. And to be honest, it was a little scary to him. Once you noticed him you walked over and for a second he thought you were going to scold him but instead you smiled and held out your hand. âY/n.â You said, and he felt his heart beat a bit faster. Letâs not focus on that though.
You began dating quite fast as he felt no reason to wait. So when you began dating is when he began asking his questions about why you dress like that and why tou style your hair in that way, and you had given him the simple answer.
âIâm punk.â
â....what is that.â
And itâs not that heâs dumb but heâs not all that impressive when it comes to subcultures. I mean heâs a detective- he doesnât have to be. But since his s/o is one heâll take it upon himself to research and check his knowledge and make sure it is also the same case with you since he learned not all punkâs have some sort of consensus.
âSo you are doing this to show that you go against the way things are now? Like a silent rebellion?â
âSure yeah.â
Itâs simple talks like those that happen all the time because he constantly wants to know more about you, despite being able to ask you himself, he likes surprising you with his knowledge. However he also knows that some things he has to get specifically from you since youâre black and most punk represented in the media is classically white people- he wants to understand your perspective out of all this. Nobody elseâs.
When you start playing your music he kind of shuts down? He just stares at you because heâs not too sure if he likes the music or not but he soon warms up to it. He enjoys The Clash the most, he likes most of what yoy play though.
When you talk to him about politics and your beliefs he tries to listen and tie it to his understanding of being punk as well but sometimes he canât tell if itâs something you believe or itâs a common punk belief, not that it matters, but still.
Overall this is a learning experience he doesnât mind learning for you. It doesnât even affect him in a negative way so he has no reason to be against it I mean, he can still kiss you and feed you cake after work so what is the problem?
MATSUDA
Matsuda is just chilling dawg. When he sees you he is a bit flustered, he canât lie. But he doesnât mind it, he almost embraces it. Your whole vibe attracted him from the beginning and that was surprising because he usually wouldnât go for punk people (he hadnât even seen many in general if at all)
He does get the courage to ask you out after staring at you for lord knows how long, and heâs almost embarrassed at how you just smile so sweetly at him. He totally misjudged your character. Even if it wasnât on purpose he did subconsciously think you would have a more dominant personality, but that part only truly came out when talking about what you stood for as a punk black individual. Which you did quite often.
Listen- he doesnât mean to but when you talk about that stuff all he can think about is how attractive you are. Your face, your outfits, your stature itself was so inviting. So he DOES just start kissing you and hugging you- what about it? Not like you mind, in fact you invite it everytime, but it is kind of weird how everytime it happens this is always how it ends.
When you start bringing up trying to introduce him to what it is that you are, it isnât to convert him but he doesnât seem to understand that. So be bites his lip and proceeds to say,
âAh...sorry but um..I donât think I am fit for that- not that it isnât cool! Youâre very cool and hot and I enjoy you a lot but...I donât think itâs for me.â He stutters with a clear blush on his cheeks and you have to laugh.
âI just wanted to show you Suda I promise.â You say and he quickly relaxes his shoulders from their hunched up position.
Matsuda is not made for punk music and itâs almost funny. He tried it- he really did. He sat there and listened for an hour but he just couldnât get into it the way you did, and it was something you expected but that didnât mean it wasnât any less cute to watch him try and pretend he enjoyed it with his awkward headbops.
When you talk about politics or the current state of the world and your views itâs very little that he shares his opinions because he cannot seem to want to. I mean there you are- pouring your heart and soul into this topic- especially highlighting how frustrating it is that there is barely any black-punk rep in te media, and he give you a two sentence âI agreeâ response. It is never happening again is what he vowed and he kept that promise.
All in all, he loves you. He loves your appearence, the way you hold yourself, your intellence, your music, everything. How could he not? Thereâs no question that no matter what you tell him, heâll listen with heart eyes and remember it 10 years later, he loves you all the much.
FIN.

Wheeewwww this was a trip and I donât know why, anyways thank you for supporting me and I am so sorry for the wait bc you were probably waiting FOREVER- anyway I tried my best with the punk concept but it seems that there is no common consensus? So this was very vague sorry :( but thank you for requesting!!

L lawliet x reader
( Fluff :to all the death note fans and L simps)
You slept in your shared bed while your boyfriend continued to work on a random case that he was interested in.
Suddenly you felt a pair of hands shake you awake. You opened your eyes and turned to the side to met owl like ones staring right it you.
âHiâ He spoke.
âHey, you finished with that case for today? Itâs like 2 oâclock in the morning, you should really go to bed.â You glanced at the clock, it wasnât 2 yet but it sure was getting close.
âBut you said youâd go take me to get ice cream cake.â L stared at you with the same look as before.
âL, please itâs so fuckinâ late right now...I doubt the store is even open..â you groaned..
âWe donât know until we try...â His round eyes stared at you almost like a puppy.
âL motherfucking Lawliet, I am not going out in the middle of the night to get you some ice cream cake...â
âHow the fuck did you convince me to do this?â You squinted as you carried L on your back.
âI think your hungry...â L pointed at the store full of sweets.
âI think I want some sleep.â You muttered as you walked in the store.
âHey y/n!â An old friend of yours waved at you from behind the counter.
âWhy are you still open?â You hissed at your friend.
âHey Iâm not the one who owns the shop, you gotta leave those questions to the big man. Now what can I get for you and your owl boyfriend?â Your friend teased.
âPiss off F/n. Just get me the chocolate chip ice cream cake.â You still held onto L who was still on your back.
âAlright alright, here thatâll be 700 yenâ your friend placed the ice cream cake in a box and you slammed down the cash onto the counter.
Now the two of you were walking back together while L ate his cake you bought him. You looked down at your side as L continued to eat the cake you bought him, man he was a hand full....
but you still loved him didnât you?
