Wow, I totally didn't even think to check under "0"! I know that it's creepy, but don't you love Taro? :) I love that shot of him, near the end, when Ryuk asks him how the world of the dead was... ;_; Plus, the shot where he came back to life... I can almost year him gasp. :3 He's also really pretty as an adult. ;) It must be interesting, having a shinigami follow you about even if you're not killing people, a constant companion...

See, the pilot chapter doesn't quite fit in with canon, right? I mean, there's no other mention of that Death Eraser, so... yeah. But in the fic idea that I had, I'd just fool with the plotline a little bit, and have Ryuk simply become "bored" ten years apart...
