If you find yourself at the crossroads of insomnia and insanity, this is the place to channel those demons that keep you sleepless. Vivid pictures, poetry, ruminations, and confessions from the nether hours between dusk and dawn. Originally formed to celebrate the city at night, there's a strong urban theme.

green_future
Dedicated to promoting global sustainability, this community offers a forum for discussing current environmental news, research, and issues with tips on how to make positive, pro-active changes to reduce carbon impact. You'll also find information on how to get involved in eco-activism and learn about events near you (i.e., act local; think global). Offering a wealth of data on earth-friendly products and practices, you'll be inspired to don an organic bamboo cape and save the planet.

wtf_sexism
Self-described as "a little community with a lot of rage," you can soak up impassioned vibes and read blistering exposes detailing sexist attitudes in the news, pop culture, and science! A must-join community if you are, or love, a feminist. (NB: the topic of whether a "man" can be a feminist is outside the scope of this spotlight, but will probably wind up on the Writer's Block.)

Pedido- L Death Note by ~RaquelSumeragi on deviantART

Lineart by me

Title: Peer Mentor
Author: speaky_bean
Characters: Light, Mikami, mentions of their respective families, multiple OCs.
Written For: the_gabih, with the prompt "academics". She wanted the main characters to be Light and Mikami. This was for dn_contest's second annual Secret Santa event.B
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 5,505
Notes: In this story, Light and Mikami go to the same high school, due to Mikami being kept out of school after his mother dies, and due to canon not specifying where he lived as a child, only where he lives as an adult. Being older than Light, Mikami is assigned to be his peer mentor--their discussions range from the dimensions of the classrooms (which Mikami considers to be vitally important) to how one balances school and having a life. This story also deals with a lot of neurosis on Mikami's part.

(Kimura-sensei tells Teru that this is the year that he’s going to admit that he misses his mother. He also tells him, while running his greasy, crinkled fingers through his gray, thinning hair, that this is the year he’s finally going to make a friend.)

I drew of picture of Raito, when he was younger and frankly less freakishly ambitious. Click for full picture.

I find my love for Matt and Mello pretty much dead. I commissioned these "Buttface" plushies from mistychan18 for $70, and I was wondering if anyone would be interested in buying the pair for $40? Mello's hair is a bit loose, but I'll pull out my sewing glue to fix that before they are sent. I should be able to fix the eyes if I can find my green felt.

$40 includes shipping to anywhere in the US and paypal feels.

I also have Death Note volumes 7-12, if anyone is interested in those. They are in good condition and no wear and tear. Those are going to be $30 for the set, including shipping and paypal fees.
