i would love some platonic rem hcs,,,, 😳 pls and thank you

You got it mate! This took a LOOONG time because I have some troubles going on rn but working over it!

REM AS YOUR SHINIGAMI HEADCANNONS (Platonic)

Here’s the thing- Rem is not going to tell you about her possessiveness but it will definitely show in other cases. Like let’s say somebody asks you out-

“Rem do you think I should say yes? They can be a little much but their intentions are nice?”

“Do not be a fool, intentions can be easily changed. Do you really need a significant other anyways? You have enough going on.”

“That’s true, that’s true, my bad.”

-

She constantly doesn’t understand some of the phrases you use sometimes an has to ask you because she will literally take it seriously no hesitation.

“I’m gonna jump out this window if I have to keep sitting in this class.” You said quietly. Rem looked honestly...really scared.

“What? Why would you end your life over a school course?”

“.....nevermind.”

-

She definitely likes watching TV with you because it makes her feel more like a human, even if she doesn’t mind being a Shinigami, she feels that you would be more comfortable if she acted like your friends and others do.

“Oh wow she really said yes to his friend request? Didn’t he have a significant other already?”

“I told you this show is drama, not smart.” And your nights usually continue that same way no matter what the show. She’s trying her best ok?

-

Usually she enjoys doing mundane things with you...well trying her best to do so. Like when you dance in your room singing any song any genre she’s going to try and dance. Singing is a no go however. Not at all.

-

One time she actually talked to you about all the past Death Note holders she had been with, and it was a pretty dark conversation but you felt pretty happy that she felt she could entrust you with that.

-

Sometimes she’d get bored and try a hand at being playful, and try and tempt you into using the Death Note.

“So.....you want to try and kill that guy who was talking about you in class from Tuesday?”

“REM STOP”

“Is that a no? I did not hear a no come from your mouth.”

-

You’re not gonna get many expressions y’all I’m sorry let’s be honest a little grin at the most here. But in return she lets you hug her. If you’re lucky she’ll actually ask.

-

There’s never been a dire situation with Rem around. She is very cautious and looks out for you at all times. She also tends to remember everything so if it’s your birthday or you need to go somewhere she’ll know before you can even recall.

-

On rainy days when going outside seems like too much effort you’ll both sit inside and find things to do and one time...she made you an oragami flower I kid you not. You still have that thing today.

-

If you have a pet Rem will observe that thing all day. Doesn’t matter how many times she’s seen it before or in your house she is following it around, poking it, and sometimes she even made noises at it like a child. It was a bit disturbing but you looked past that because she was being very careful and sweet, as if it was a child.

-

All in all Rem is a pretty simple girl, despite being a Shinigami of course she’ll try her best to make sure you are okay and in the best place you can be in all aspects. Get ready for a new best friend y’all.

Gotta support my fellow melanin babes 😎✨

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? 👀

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. ‘Anti-whatever sort of system we live in’ 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 wasn’t 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!! He’s 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. “Y/n.” You said, and he felt his heart beat a bit faster. Let’s 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.

“I’m punk.”

“....what is that.”

And it’s not that he’s dumb but he’s not all that impressive when it comes to subcultures. I mean he’s a detective- he doesn’t have to be. But since his s/o is one he’ll 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 punk’s have some sort of consensus.

“So you are doing this to show that you go against the way things are now? Like a silent rebellion?”

“Sure yeah.”

It’s 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 you’re black and most punk represented in the media is classically white people- he wants to understand your perspective out of all this. Nobody else’s.

When you start playing your music he kind of shuts down? He just stares at you because he’s 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 can’t tell if it’s something you believe or it’s a common punk belief, not that it matters, but still.

Overall this is a learning experience he doesn’t mind learning for you. It doesn’t 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 can’t lie. But he doesn’t mind it, he almost embraces it. Your whole vibe attracted him from the beginning and that was surprising because he usually wouldn’t go for punk people (he hadn’t 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 he’s almost embarrassed at how you just smile so sweetly at him. He totally misjudged your character. Even if it wasn’t 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 doesn’t 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 isn’t to convert him but he doesn’t seem to understand that. So be bites his lip and proceeds to say,

“Ah...sorry but um..I don’t think I am fit for that- not that it isn’t cool! You’re very cool and hot and I enjoy you a lot but...I don’t think it’s for me.” He stutters with a clear blush on his cheeks and you have to laugh.

“I just wanted to show you Suda I promise.” You say and he quickly relaxes his shoulders from their hunched up position.

Matsuda is not made for punk music and it’s almost funny. He tried it- he really did. He sat there and listened for an hour but he just couldn’t get into it the way you did, and it was something you expected but that didn’t mean it wasn’t 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 it’s 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 “I agree” 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? There’s no question that no matter what you tell him, he’ll listen with heart eyes and remember it 10 years later, he loves you all the much.

FIN.
