Atem and Yugi in separate bodies wouldn't even change much of their dynamic they already spent 3 years with no boundaries they'd just be clingy bitches still joint at the hip, sleeping in the same bed, bathing together, sharing food and drink, if one of em doesn't wanna talk they just push the other one in front [usually Yugi doing this bc he goes nonverbal more often], Atem definitely forgets he can't just walk through solid objects anymore so he keeps bruising his shins on the furniture, if you see one the other won't be far behind so it's actually more concerning if they don't show up as a pair, they probably have separation anxiety but this is the 90's and early 2000's so nobody is willing to talk about that therapy who haha we're so fine :)

Kewne Day 4! Been a long time since I drew my crazy boy huh?

[zigfried-von-schroeder]

Corrupted King of Souls Turned out way better than I thought would be. New art for my fav villain after 4 years. It's been just as long since I drew the other 2 pretties. But Dartz deserved it more since I'm still waiting for his damn deck to be printed, and gonna blackmail konami to add him to DL.

This is my part of the Art Trade with the wonderful artist @arcatsk 🤩 She wanted a little drama, so I did my best!! 🙊🙈 Kaiba lost the duel against Yami even playing the Seal of Orichalcos! 😱😭

“This is all your fault! You were holding your team back from winning through the entire duel. You let your partner to take the hit. He trusted you enough to sacrifice himself for you and yet you’re WEAK, there’s nothing you can do to save him or the others. Moreover, the pain you feel right now from the loss is the ultimate fuel to the great Leviathan.. it’s all over” – Dartz Cause no whumptober is complete without some Orichalcos arc angst!

Resh

Dartz

Side by Side

While I was drawing Dartz yesterday, I realized that he looked very similar to my design of Resh. I've watched season 4 of Yu-Gi-Oh several years ago and Dartz really marked me as a villain, so I wouldn't be surprised if I subconsciously made them look similar 🤔

I put them side by side and I've noticed a few things:

Although they do have some similarities, they are very different in the subtleties.

First, for the similarities. They have both been corrupted by a certain stone; Dartz by the Orichalcos, and Resh by the Darkstone. At first sight, even their designs are strikingly similar, but it's interesting to dive a little deeper.

Resh's features are much sharper and imposing, while Dartz's seem softer in comparison. While their eyes have a similar shape, Dartz's irises being wider make him seem much calmer. Resh's very small irises show an instability much more evident than in Dartz. Dartz may appear as calm and collected, and disguise himself as a savior, while in my interpretation of Resh, he doesn't truly attempt to hide his God complex and superiority over the rest. Although Dartz's smile is false, it is still a smile regardless. Resh doesn't even bother to offer any sort of comfort whatsoever; his rage is clear, it is oppressive and intimidating. Dartz appeals to people's emotions through their weakness, and invites them to his side with a semblance of empathy and compassion, while the reality is that he despises humankind and wants to erase it, in order to clear it of its evil. His goal is to recreate a new world devoid of evil by destroying the old one, and to raise a prosperous Atlantis again. Resh is much louder with his goals, and although both are cold in their own way, Resh is entirely detached to the harm that he is causing. Both are chasing power and world domination, but there is an unmatched ruthlessness in Resh. Resh wants to take down the Megabird and become God, while Dartz wants to revive the god of the Orichalcos, the Great Leviathan, who is his master.

Both are equally terrifying in their own way. One is a wolf in sheep's clothing, while the other's monstrousness is evident in his every move.

"Come back..."

When season 4 decided to hit it hit too damn hard

Yu-Gi-Oh Seal of Orichalcos AU

I was rewatching Yu-Gi-Oh yesterday. And when I was at the Orichalcos arc, after Atem lost the duel against Raphael and Yugi sacrifices himself to save Atem from being taken by the seal. I thought. Damn it would be so cool and make the stakes higher if Atem started to slowly revert himself back into his season 0 self. Without Yugi, his guiding light, he starts to lose himself into the darkness once again.

He becomes more introverted, he starting to smile that scares the shit out of everyone, his hair wilder and eyes is no longer human. They are now filled with purple flames from the darkest path of underworld.

During his battle against Wevil. He had secretly started a shadow game when Wevil lied about having Yugi's soul! And was this close to tearing Wevil soul apart with berserker soul as punishment if it werent for Thea stopping him.

And this is when she saw what was happening to Atem.

Servant of the Great Leviathan

[cartoonsbyandie]

So here's some things I randomly remembered and thought might be fun to post. I have a lot of art from back when I ran a Seto Kaiba RP blog, and this was from an inbox meme where people could request Kaiba in different outfits. So here's a collection!

[robogart]

Every finger tightened across his neck, his pulse racing beneath her own, smile growing against the unearthly glow of the seal on her forehead. The pinpointed anger and determination from the Orichalcos channeled itself in the grip under his jaw, firmer and stronger than he had anticipated. Valon's chest lurched upwards as he appreciated the size of Mai’s hands, able to wrap so securely around his throat. The pressure of her thumbs on his windpipe. It made him feel real, and she looked so beautiful so close like this. Has anyone ever told her that, he wondered?
