Dropped in a Fangirl\'s World

Dropped in a Fan Girl's World

Chapter 2:

Jeichan leaned close up to the computer screen, eyes wide and lips parted - the intensity of her focus blocking out all background noises and motions from her perception. She read over each line, each word, each letter hungrily, periodically placing her right hand over her lips to keep back her chuckles. At each episode of suppressed laughter she closed her eyes or looked away from the screen, noticing only her own thoughts and the words on the screen - she ignored Light sitting on the couch behind her thus not catching the annoyed expression on his face.

"Is what you're reading that entertaining? Chill out and do something else for a change, I've had enough of your yaoi fanfiction crap…." Arms crossed in front of him, Light leaned back on the couch, chocolate eyes locked on Jeichan's back as the only TV in the apartment didn't have cable or even an antenna hooked up. After a week he'd watched all the DVDs he found interesting, refusing to watch any of the anime ones.

"Didn't anyone ever tell you about assuming things? I'm not reading a yaoi - well it shows hints of BL but isn't a Yaoi yet - there's no graphic scenes….at most I guess there is BL or Shounen-ai, pretty much the same thing, but yaoi means graphic and…."

"Like I really give a crap about those distinctions…what women see in such a thing…."

Jeichan spun around and glared at Light, her hair recently dyed black with red streaks fell past her shoulders. Her sharp blue eyes seemed like they were trying to cut through the brunette, their intense annoyance etched deeply in those orbs.

"What do men see in watching women making out and screwing each other? It's simply the woman's version of that accepted male fantasy….anyway there is nothing like that in this fic I'm reading…it's more a humorous, perhaps twisted, psychological fic…."

Light scoffed as L stepped into the room, the next second shaking his head as Jeichan flew to L and bear hugged the detective.

'Ah, great, is she going to complain to him about me being mean to her? I swear she's like Misa….'

"L-kun! You need to enjoy life more! Don't let logic and reason dictate everything!" Jeichan held her arms tightly around the detective, relaxing her grip only as the silence grew and she felt both L and Light staring at her.

"Huh? What brought that up?" Light dropped his crossed arms and leaned forward, side-glancing at L for some sign or reason for Jeichan's comment. L simply gave him a similar glance before both of them shifted back to their strange housemate.

"Sorry. But the fanfic I'm reading is about the different sides of L and it's making me want to convince him that there's more to life than just being robotically emotionless while solving cases…." Jeichan let go of L and pouted, lowering her head as though trying to seem like a scolded dog. The next second her expression grew intense and she clasped her hands together, the color of her eyes like blue flames. "I mean, even Sherlock Holmes found enjoyment in life when not consumed by monotony…."

"Ah…but Sherlock is a fictional…."

Light bit his tongue, halting his sentence as he heard Jeichan's warning 'uh um', he realized her words the second before she began.

"Have you forgotten that in this world both of you are fictional as well? And Sherlock is still the best detective regardless if he's fictional…the character was based on a real person - Joseph Bell, so don't…."

"But I'm not Sherlock…." L tilted his head and brushed his thumb over his lips, eyes glancing at the monitor and scan reading the loaded page. He blinked once, twice, thrice, before he sighed and turned toward the coffee table in the center of the room. "The probability of there being a side of me wanting to pounce on Light-kun and confess desire is not high…."

"But that's just what you think, are you emotionally aware of what you feel? How can you be if you don't express such emotions? Maybe you're not into Light that way, but….but….he's the only one I can ever see you having an interest in….though….maybe there's someone….There's a fanfic I read that put you and Sayu into a sexual situation, I think I could picture that…."

Light glared at Jeichan and then at L, his brown eyes narrowed, lips a thin line as Jeichan's words registered in his head. He felt overwhelmed by…he guessed brotherly protectiveness as the image of his sister and the detective flashed in his imagination.

"What story is that? I demand the name of the author…."

"….ok…." Jeichan flinched at Light's sharp glare, the hardened rage etched in every line and crevice of his face. "I guess hearing the plot of those fanfics is out of the question…." She hid behind L and pushed the detective in front of her. "Help me L, Kira wants to kill me! It's not like I wrote it! Chill out."

"You read it! I will not chill out until you tell me the author and story title…."

"Why, does Light-kun have a perverted fascination for his sister?" Jeichan retorted as she began inching away from L and Light, the next moment smacking her hands over her face. "God! I can't believe I said that! I'm the pervert! Holy hell, holy hell….god, I think I'll have to go blind if I imagine such a thing….it's like picturing Watari and L naked with chocolate syrup and strawberries…."

L's lips opened and shut as he dropped his arm to his side, then stepped away from Jeichan, shaking his head. Hunched forward he ignored both the fan girl and the seething brunette man and returned to the kitchen, his stomach and mind screaming at him to get some sweets. He continued to hear Jeichan's mumbles and could imagine Light's expression as he opened the fridge to get to the cake.

He paused - his eyes zeroing in on the strawberries and Hershey's Syrup.

"Why did she have to put that image in my head?" He frowned, the impulse to strike his head against the fridge door zipped through him.

His stomach growled as he shut the fridge, empty-handed, and turned to the pantry - dark eyes landing on the bag of unopened Reese's peanut butter cups marked with Jeichan's name in black Sharpie. Stomach growling, he picked up the bag and opened it, his legs bringing him to the kitchen table.

Sitting on the chair closest to the doorway, L began unwrapping and consuming the Reese's while he listened to Light and Jeichan's conversation in the living room.

"I'm sick and tired of your perverted thoughts! One week and I already feel like I'm going insane just being around you….it's bad enough you include me and L in your fantasies, but now my sister….I don't even want to think about…."

"But the fic with L and Sayu was just….so interesting, the first part took place during the surveillance and the second one after L introduced himself to you at college…."

'She's digging herself in deeper and deeper….deep….god, she's starting to make me think like a pervert….okay, focus on the Reese's….'

"…during the SURVEILLANCE?! What took place during the surveillance?! I demand to know what sort of twisted things you've been reading concerning Sayu!"

"Geez, you're acting like you're her father rather than brother…."

"She's my younger sister! There's no way I'll let L's perverted fan girls include Sayu in their twisted fantasies!"

"Geez, it was only voyeurism and solo….though there was oral in the second part…."

Light's lips pursed into a thin line, teeth strongly clenched behind them - his eyes glinted with a fury deadlier than his verbal outbursts. Almost as though trying to smite Jeichan with his glare, he forced eye contact with the fan girl - the next moment he brushed by her and into the kitchen.

"L! I'm going to beat your frickin…."

"Whoa, hold it! It's just a fanfic, don't hurt L…no fighting…." Jeichan wrapped her arms around the enraged Light's torso in her attempt to stop him; she dragged her feet and pulled backwards - biting hard on her bottom lip at the brunette's strength. "Please no…." She peeked at L from behind Light, her mouth halting in mid-formation of a word. Her arms slackened around Light, her eyes widening as she forgot the brunette's rage and stared at L and the wrappers on the table. "….who the HELL said you could eat my Reese's?!"

Light snapped out of his demented rage directed at the detective as Jeichan's words crashed into the kitchen. The yell not hellishly loud, not much above her normal tone yet laced with venom….he cringed as he glanced at her and noted the murderous glint in her blue eyes.

'Uh….back away, back away….' Light inhaled and stepped toward the wall, his experience with Jeichan over the past week informing him of the necessity to take cover somewhere. It took a split-second longer to realize her anger, for the first time, was directed at L.

"Um? No one said I could eat them, but they were bought using my credit card, so….there's cake in the fridge if you'd like that…." L, having paused with an unwrapped Reese's at his lips, ate that candy before digging into the bag for another morsel. He seemed oblivious to Jeichan glaring at his back, the fan girl's blazing eyes suddenly turning into ice.

"I did not use your credit card to buy those, I paid for them with my own money."

L paused and placed the candy he'd just took back into the bag, his ears taking in the sudden shift in Jeichan's tone and his brain equating it with those times Light pushed the fan girl too far. "I…I'm sorry? I assumed that…."

"You both assume a lot, don't you? ….I'm keeping your credit card with me tonight and tomorrow, for there will be no more shopping until I decide things need to be restocked."

L paled, mouth hanging open slightly as he visualized the severely limited stock of sweets left - enough for 3 days at the most, if he only ate half his usual amount.

"I apologize…." L stood up and approached Jeichan, lips forming into a frown as he held out the opened bag of Reese's like a peace offering. "You may buy as many bags of Reese's for yourself as you wish with my credit card….thus please reconsider your shopping ban…."

Jeichan stared coldly at the proffered Reese's bag, then at the expression on L's face - a few seconds later she sighed and took the bag. Her lips nearly formed the word 'ok' when she paused and her mind formed a thought which brought a smile to her lips.

"I'll forgive and lift the shopping ban, if….if I can see you and Light make out right now, and take a picture of it with my phone's camera."

L tilted his head as he thought over the stipulation, his black eyes shifting to gaze at Light - the brunette blinked as Jeichan's words registered, his reaction delayed just a nanosecond longer. Light glared at Jeichan and interjected before L could respond.

"Like hell am I kissing L! I don't give a damn if he never gets another sweet, in fact I will relish seeing how miserable that will make him."

Jeichan simply smirked, and then chuckled - her narrow eyes cold.

"Is Light-kun saying he can live on just water indefinitely? Or that he has some way to buy his own food? The shopping ban doesn't just include sweets."

Light pursed his lips and answered Jeichan's glare with his own.

"I just have to take the credit card from you, then I'm the one in control of the money."

Laughter filled the hallway and kitchen as Jeichan doubled over, her chest hurting with the strength of the laugher rushing through her.

"You'll have to figure out where I have it, first. And even if you do, I doubt…."

"It is inadvisable for Light-kun to try stealing the credit card. Over the pass few days I have myself searched for its hiding place, and I discovered that as Jeichan's clothes seldom contain pockets, if she carries it with her it is not in an easy place to pickpocket it from…." L brought his forefinger to his lips, cheeks slightly tinged red as he watched Light's turn his attention from Jeichan to the detective. "And if it is not hidden on her, then it must be either in a hiding place that changes daily or else hidden in a very good hiding spot."

"…." Light glanced at L to Jeichan, then back to L before he closed his eyes and turned around, stalking toward the stairs. "I'll find that credit card even if I have to turn this apartment upside down. I…." He reached the bottom of the stairs as the apartment's doorbell rung, his foot placed on the first step of the staircase. The brunette paused and glanced at the door, it situated a door-length in front of the stairs; before any party could react, the front door swooshed open. "Ah."

Light dodged the door with split-second timing but tripped up the stairs, landing on his back with his arms and legs splayed out.

"Holy crap! Light-kun, are you okay?" Jeichan ran toward the stairs, barely gazing at the person who unceremoniously opened her apartment door. Her blue eyes took in Light's position and the expression on the brunette's face as he recovered and rubbed the back of his head. 'Note to self, keep that image in memory…could come in handy for a doujinshi….' Stifling her laughter, she held out her hand to help Light up from the stairs, her earlier anger dispersed. "This sort of thing is called karma, right? Anyway…." She turned toward the door, eyes narrowing minutely before she even saw the door-opening culprit. "Who tried slamming the door into my guest? Who's the bozo who…."

Watari stood in the doorway, carrying plastic bags filled with groceries - the sounds from behind him signifying the presence of others accompanying him. Jeichan blinked and tilted her head, her words cut off as her brain tried to compute an appropriate greeting. The brief awkward moment passed when Watari turned to L and stepped further into the apartment - he handed one of the bags to L when the detective reached.

'Watari…and L….' Jeichan's gaze shifted to the bag in Watari's right hand, the clear plastic allowing her to see its contents. 'and…cool-whip? What about the strawberries…?'

"I can't believe I just thought that, holy hell! Holy hell!" Jeichan slapped her hands over her face, cheeks hot as the images flooded her brain. She shook her head, trying to throw the thought into oblivion; her outburst caused Watari and L to both pause, with the detective's expression briefly exhibiting aversion.

'God, now she put that image back in my thoughts….I better focus on something else until she cools down….' L sighed and rummaged through the bag he held blindly, his hand grabbing hold of a medium size box. His attention briefly averted to Watari introducing himself to Jeichan, he didn't glance at the box until he'd fully removed it from the bag.

It was a box of Twinkies.

Silence extended its presence into the room as Light's, Jeichan's, and L's attentions locked on the box; the moment drawn out as they shifted their eyes to each other's faces.

"Um, Ryuza…."

"Oh my god! Now it's Watari giving his Twinkie to L! Holy….and he has cool-whip too and…." Jeichan suddenly fell silent as the image of Watari and L with strawberries, chocolate syrup and cool-whip filled every crevice of her conscious thought; the silence remained a brief second longer until she fell onto the stairs, chest heaving with laughter.

"Um…Ryuzaki, what is…?"

"You do not want to know. Trust me, Watari, you do not want to know."

"Ah, so I see. You have been staying here since you suddenly found yourself in this dimension or world…." Watari nodded as he listened to the detective's brief synopsis of the past week, and placed a tray of sweets on the computer desk next to L. "Soon after your arrival, Yagami-kun showed up….I see, you remained here in order to keep an eye on Yagami-kun, just in case, right?"

"Yes. Though this world doesn't seem to have such things as Shinigami or death notes, if there's allowance for foreign entities from other dimensions to enter this realm, then who's to say a Shinigami cannot?"

"I'm relieved I was able to track you through use of that credit card. Though I must say I'm surprised it worked in this realm….if it's true our world is fictional in this one, why would the credit card work?"

"Precisely. There's something that must be affecting things, some power or being with unknown objectives…." L unwrapped a chocolate ball, briefly thanking fate that Jeichan wasn't there, otherwise he might have to deal with her perverted take on the word 'ball'. "It seems that in order for members of our realm to enter this one, they must first die. Which means Light-kun's presence here is preferable to him not being here, while having Mello and Matt…." The detective frowned and sighed, recalling how he felt when he'd seen that the ones who arrived with Watari were two fellow orphans - one of which he'd hoped would be his successor. "I guess I should be grateful that Near has not arrive yet in this world."

"Yes, that…."

"L! Watari! Get this girl away from us!" Mello shouted as the apartment door opened, his scarred face livid and framed by his blond hair. "She keeps…."

"Come on! Just one photo of you and Matt kissing! Please? Pretty please with whip-cream and fudge on top? Come on!" Jeichan's voice cut through Mello's, her Blackberry phone in her right hand, a bag holding two 2 liters of Diet Pepsi hooked on her left arm. "I'm letting you all stay in my apartment, the least you can do is allow me to take a picture of some sweet boy love! I'm mean….I nearly had L agree to kiss Light by refusing to buy any more sweets if he didn't, but then you all had to interrupt….it's no fair!"

"I don't care that….wait, L almost agreed to kiss Kira? What the f-"

"Jeichan, shut up about your yaoi crap, there's no way in hell that I'm kissing L!" Light's voice crashed in from upstairs, the interjection muffled slightly by the sound of the shower behind the brunette. "So shut up, I'm trying to relax!"

"….relax?…in the shower?…." Jeichan blinked, glanced down at her phone, then peeked up the stairs so she saw Light glaring down from behind the half-wall that acted as a brief railing for the stairs. The brunette's chest was uncovered and shiny with moisture, water dripping from his hair. "If you were L instead of Light standing like that, I think I'd take some pictures right now and post them online…if I only knew how to use eBay…." She stared up at Light, then glanced at her Blackberry, then back up at Light.

"Oh? I bet I give much more of a photo worthy impression this moment than L ever could." Light smirked as he caught Jeichan's stare, inclining his head in a way he knew would send women's hearts racing. His tried-and-true methods telling him to flirt, his pride filling him with confidence than no woman could resist him.

"You know, Light, you're making me wish I was L right now so I could ravish you. Or perhaps Mikami…." Suddenly Jeichan's eyes lit up and her lips twisted into a lavish smirk. "Imagine if I had power over Kira…able to force him to do everything I wish….punish him…torture…." She started to cackle, her expression showing traces of a wildness kin to any of Kira's. One foot lifted and placed up a step, she watched as Light backed away and reentered the bathroom, locking the door. The next moment she leaned against the stair railing, trying her hardest to stifle her laughter.

Behind her Mello and Matt stared at her, disbelief etched onto their faces.

"I think we just witnessed proof of the insanity of our hostess."

"Nope, you're wrong. I'm normal, it's everyone else who's crazy…." Jeichan pushed herself up from the railing and stretched, grin reaching from ear to ear. It faltered briefly at the looks on Mello and Matt's faces. "Okay, maybe I'm a bit - a big bit - sugar hyper right now….but that's your fault, you gave me blue pixie-stix! Anything blue-raspberry flavored makes me more hyper than ordinary sugar! Now I want to act like Sakuma-san from Gravitation! Vroom!"

Mello and Matt watched silently as Jeichan pushed by them, arms spread like an airplane, and entered the living room. They glanced at each other as the fan girl stopped right beside L and clamped herself to the detective's arm.

"L-chan! I think you should cosplay as Kumagoro! That'll be cuuuute!"

"Jeichan, I think you should settle down and do something that doesn't require driving us crazy…."

"Do you know, I just thought of something. I call you L-chan, and I have each of you calling me Jeichan, which is pronounced the same as J-chan….I just find that interesting. Now we only need a K - which could be Kira - to be sandwiched between us and…." Jeichan paused, thought a moment, then exclaimed. "I'm so jealous! If I were a guy I could have my own yaoi with you, I wouldn't need to imagine you and Light! Ah, goddamn, I wish my incubus would show up…."

Sighing after that random statement, Jeichan left L's side and laid down on the couch, her pursed lips lending a strange silence to the room.

A/N: So many more characters have shown up…I wonder who else should I bring into this story? Maybe someone who sided with Light? Or perhaps a Shinigami? It seems I might try developing a plot to this humor fic….(For some reason my aversion to Light because he caused L's death has slowly developed into a strange attraction….probably because of all the L/Light yaoi fics I read….)

This chapter includes references to other fanfics I've read, the first one being The 12 Sides of L by Viciada desde 2005 on fanfiction dot net, and the second (which contains 2 fics by the same author) Boredom and No Longer Bored by Siriusgirl19 on adultfanfiction dot net.

This chapter is also the first to directly reference other anime beside Death Note. The reference is to Gravitation and Kumagoro (who is a pink bunny plusie carried around by Ryuichi Sakuma who's Japanese voice actor is the same as L's Japanese voice actor, for those of you who didn't know)
