Thank you! Yeah, there are a lot of things in Death Note that have the potential to be really interesting but aren't looked at very closely, which I think is why it's had such a big fandom--there's s much to play with! Anyway I'm glad you thought it worked. I was a bit weird with the narration style at first, mostly using 'we' and only having vague details about the narrator himself isn't my usual thing. And yay not sentimental! Anyway thank you very much for you comment.
