do y ou have any fic recs for us? <333

Hi <3 honored you're asking me! In general I write more than I read and mostly don't have time for longfics unfortunately, but I still have some recs for you!

The closest thing to connection (explicit) by @crush3dmary is a fantastic study of tendershipping and the horror elements are incredibly well-integrated. This author is one of my favorites and I could recommend their whole catalogue, but for now I'll link anachronism / autocannibalist, a glass cage for an animal, and the C0NTAGI0N duology.

Yeah Sure Get In A Fight With A Car by @justapalspal hits the perfect balance of comedy and emotional weight. I laughed out loud multiple times while reading it. It's really impressive how in-character everyone's written, makes the whole thing feel like a deleted scene in the best way. Can't rec Pal without also rec'ing their anti-drug PSA parodies, of course!

Shelf-life by crucifixion (no tumblr that I'm aware of) is another brilliant psychological horror piece. The author absolutely nailed the Ryou/Bakura dynamic in a way that's downright chilling. If you like the early manga or Season 0, you gotta read this.

Parasite by @kitsunefaux has a wonderfully creepy Bakura and some insanely visceral, chilling descriptions. You can feel Ryou's slow transition from concern to abject fear--I really love this one, and need to get around to reading some of the author's other work!

Dear Amane, by @chronophobica is an epistolary fic that updates daily, and I read the newest chapters as they come out. It's a brilliant example of how much you can pack into just a few sentences.

Coin Laundry by @sitabethel is another one with a good mix of humor and heartwarming stuff, and I love the way Bakura's written so so much. The author excels at this balance and I'll just go ahead and rec anything else they've written, too, including the currently updating Keikaku Means Plan!

I think that's all I've got for now, it's been a long day, but there's so many great fics out there that if you ask me again some other time I bet I'll have more for you.

I'm kind of shameless here but I'm also on ao3 if you want to check out my stuff.

i am. so sorry if i have ever used the phrase “i have an au where—” and led you to believe that there is an actual fic out there for you to read rather than, at best, a post where i explain the concept, and at worst it is simply something that lives in my brain

you could have it all my empire of dirt

i don't think we give enough credit to yami yugi for being one of the funniest character concepts ever executed.

pharaoh atem gets sealed inside of the cursed amulet and finally reawakens after thousands of years with zero memories and the following thoughts, in this order:

1. i have GOT to dress sexier than this

2. I need Revenge.

3. I'm Feeling 🎲⭐️LUCKY!⭐️🎰

4. ohhh god oh fuck oh god. ohhh god oaaughhh hhhhh

Stole this from twitter. Gotta love horses remembering their old jobs (in this case, racing)! They're playing the call to the gate tune!

you'll be hanging out with the sweetest person ever and they'll randomly tell you a childhood experience that would have vaporised you and you're like oh we should find your parents and murder them irl
