#Tristan Taylor/Serenity Wheeler

[yugioh-rare-pair-poll]

Round 1: Poll 3

Propaganda under the cut

Pairing 1: Cubeshipping (Seto Kaiba/Diva)

Propaganda: doesn't have Propaganda

Pairing 2: Ardentshipping (Hiroto Honda |Tristan Taylor/ Shizuki Kawaii | Serenity Wheeler)

Propaganda: I've always thought that, between Otogi and Honda, that Honda was the better guy for Shizuka. He really looks out for her and is a sweet, gung-ho guy. I like it whether it's one-sided from Honda or whether Shizuka does end up returning his feelings. Overall, Honda seems more considerate of Shizuka and in turn Shizuka seems more receptive to him.

Now, let’s keep things civil. This is a silly poll where we can share why we love our overlooked ships. There’s no need to be nasty to prove your point. Bashers will be banished to the Shadow Realm.

team yugi ooOHHHH

[gx-gameon]

I’ve been thinking about a fantasy au.

What do you think the DM classes are

Atem

I feel he’d be a Sorcerer

Not just because of his relationship with Dark Magician (Mahad) and Dark Magician Girl (Mana) but because Sorcerers are born with their magic

They are either born with wild magic or have a sardonic blood line. This can play into the idea that the Egyptian royalty were gods/decedents of gods. As his Draconic Bloodline could be from The Winged Dragon of Ra.

He’s born into power and spends most of his young life learning how to control his powers.

Yugi

I would love to hear your opinions but I feel that Yugi is a Cleric.

This is because Yugi uplifts all of his friends. Acting as group healer and support fits him well.

He can still fight and pack a heavy punch but part of his job it to watch the battle field strategically and keep any eye on his friends. Making sure they are all good to continue the fight.

I think his patreon you can play with. They don’t technically need a god though you could use Ra or Slifer. All a cleric needs to be driven by their faith. You could have his power come from Atem has he has a spark of divinity but that also implies that Yugi has no power without Atem and I don’t like that thematically. But what does Yugi have the most faith in??

Yugi Muto Cleric of the Heart of the Cards

Or

Yugi Muto Cleric of Friendship.

Joey

Barbarian

Like I know Brooklyn Rage is a joke but it works to well.

He could just be a fighter but I feel like out of every one Joey deserves to rage out. Especially when his friends are in danger.

Tristian

Maybe a controversial but I see him as a Rouge.

Rouges aren’t just theirs but they are known for creative solutions.

Tristian is the one in Duelist Kingdom to lead the charge for how Pegasus is cheating. Goes off on his own to save Mokuba or Kaiba, he finds Mokuba but he was looking for both.

He might not be a duelist but he is thinking outside the box and you have to give that to him

Teá

I think Teá would also make a great Cleric. But I don’t want any repeats.

She loves Dancing though. And do you know what class is made to dance. The Bard

Bards (according to the official DnD site) are performers of Music, Dance, and Magic. They are made to inspire others sooth hurts, dishearten foes and cast illusions.

This fits Teá so well.

She loves to give inspiring speeches, but she also love reading people for filth. I’m rewatching the show and this girl has asked at least three people “how many friends do you even have?” I’m not even halfway through season 2! She’s out her politely calling people friendless freaks, like wow. She’d do great with vicious mockery if given half the chance.

Honestly I wish we got to see Kaiba as part of the actual friend group because if someone insulted Yugi in front of Teá and Seto that is a verbal attack like no other.

Seto Kaiba

Speaking of Kaiba…Wizard

Hear me out. Yes he hates mystic mumbo jumbo in the dub. Yes in the dub he doesn’t believe in mystic stuff. But in a world where magic is a thing, you think Kaiba’s passing up in that power? No

Wizards have to study to use magic. Unlike Sorcerers who are born with their powers Wizards spend years learning.

This plays in Seto’s studying ability and his genus.

Now wizards can become more powerful than sorcerers but they are kinda running different races. Sorcerer are training up their own power and have a power boost over wizards but they are locked into whatever sort of magic they are born into. They can’t learn different types of magic. Wizards in the other hand have to work really hard to get their magic power on par with sorcerers but they can learn all types of magic. Any spell books or scrolls they find they can keep and use. (If they are level enough for that spell)

I think this will keep the spirit of Atem and Kaiba’s rivalry the purest as they are both experts in their form of magic. Atem is blessed by divinity itself, his power is near limitless. Seto works endlessly to meet that power. Constantly looking for new forms or sources of power to keep up with Atem.

It also means Seto and Yugi are more aligned then they think since Clerics can also learn magic. His spells just focus more on healing and protection.

Mokuba

Mokuba is the only one I’m stuck on.

I can see him really admiring Seto and following his footsteps to become a wizard as well.

But wizards are also glass cannons. Extremely powerful but if they get hit they go down hard. I think Mokuba is a lot more practical than Seto. I think if Seto ever gets hurt in a fight it’s going to drive Mokuba to want to have his brothers back and become a tanker build.

I think Paladin would fit him well. He has a strong sense of justice. In season 2 when he is the Battle City commissioner he takes it very seriously. He wants to enforce the rules no matter what. The only times he doesn’t is when Seto tells him to ignore it. He even argues with Seto multiple times that it’s not right. He even gives Yugi Slifer after his duel, it’s in Mokuba’s hands and he even says he really wants to keep it. Seto might have, but Mokuba’s sense of justice is stronger

A paladin fits him well. Instead of having a god he follows I think he devotes himself to the ideal of Brotherhood much like Yugi is devoted to either the Heart of the Cards or Friendship.

Serenity

I like her as a Druid.

She seems to admire the beauty in the digital world, I feel like the girl who nearly lost her sight would love nature and being able to see the beauty of the world

They focus on healing magic, transformation into animals and welding natural elements.

Healing is a theme that I also feel could really suit Serenity.

Maybe in this world instead of Yugi giving Joey the money for the operation he learned the healing spell necessary to heal Serenity himself. Crafting a stronger bond between Yugi and Joey (and playing into Yugi’s theme as a healer) while also inspire Serenity to learn more healing magic.

Duke

Also a bard. Yess I said no repeats but this man lives off of high odds and performances.

He’s playing music while Teá dances

He’s sweet talking everyone around them.

Bakura

Either another sorcerer with innate magic but his bloodline is less divine and more demonic making his magic darker

Or a Warlock who made a pack for his magic.

I kinda like him being a sorcerer as well who’s magic or mind is being corrupted by his ancestry.

Mai

Ranger

It just fits her made to take and hunt targets she shows this ability as early as duelist kingdom by gather information on the other duelist around her. Absolutely comes into this in season 4.

Her companion (as Rangers get an animal companion) is a Harpy Eagle that she calls Lady.

What do y’all think? Any ideas?

I want to do the Gx crew

[undeadbanjos]

"JOEY! We haven't even put the candles on yet!"

"Wha? I'm starvin here, can't the birthday boy sneak a bite or two?"

"Every year..."

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOEY WHEELER/JONOUCHI KATSUYA!! Precious boy, you mean the world to me.

[avlisdrawing]

Previously on Yu-Gi-Oh.

[kira-quartz]

Okay, here's that comparison. I'm warning you though, I made these cornflakes on like my second or third day of Simming and did *not* know how to use the sliders. Or the presets. 😬 I didn't even use "play with genetics" when I created Serenity! (Using CC definitely helped, but I think I could make some pretty good CC-free versions if I tried. 🤔)

2019 vs. 2025 (and I just realised that it's been exactly 6 years since I created them! 🤯)

[ap-kinda-lit]

Jonouchi: Look, it's my apartment and I needed to assert my dominance as a man to Mai.

Anzu: Don't say that. To any woman. Ever.

Jonouchi: ...Too late.

Anzu & Ishizu: What the hell is wrong with you!?

Jonouchi: You know what, I don't have to sit here and take this from you ladies. I'm going to Yugi's, the mancave, where guys can be guys.

*at the game shop*

Honda: "Assert your dominance"??

Ryuji: What the hell is wrong with you?

Atem: It's like you have no respect for women!

Yugi: You have a sister!

[yugioh-rare-pair-poll]

Second-Chance Bracket: Poll 2

Propaganda under the cut

Pairing 1: Ardentshipping(Hiroto Honda |Tristan Taylor/ Shizuka Kawai | Serenity Wheeler)

Propaganda: I've always thought that, between Otogi and Honda, that Honda was the better guy for Shizuka. He really looks out for her and is a sweet, gung-ho guy. I like it whether it's one-sided from Honda or whether Shizuka does end up returning his feelings. Overall, Honda seems more considerate of Shizuka and in turn Shizuka seems more receptive to him.

Pairing 2: Utopiashipping(Yugi Mouto/Diva)

Propaganda: I think they could have the potential to help each other through their grief and slowly come close together as they heal (grief to lovers). I also like the more toxic aspect, with Aigmai using the Quantum Cubes powers and making reality change so Yugi is already his, kinda like how Homura warps the world post Madoka Magica Rebellion movie.

Now, let’s keep things civil. This is a silly poll where we can share why we love our overlooked ships. There’s no need to be nasty to prove your point. Bashers will be banished to the Shadow Realm.

Yugioh Ships Crash Course: Part 5 of 100

Made for @deathandnonexistentialdread

As always, I invite everyone to reblog this with ship propaganda and fic recs. 💛

Softshipping: Ryou Bakura x Serenity Wheeler

Personally I think this ship has the potential to be adorable. Joey might even approve of it, because being the protective older brother that he is, he would absolutely be threatening his sister's boyfriend and keeping him in line. And let's just say, Ryou is no physical challenge for Joey.

Dungeonshipping: Duke Devlin x Maximilian Pegasus

Duke having a crush on his idol is entirely believable, and I could believe in Pegasus manipulating the hell out of him if they got together while both villains. Take out the villainy, and it's almost a cute "crush on teacher" dynamic.

Axisshipping: Seto Kaiba x Siegfried von Schroeder

They hate each other, so they love each other. Classic case of competitors in similar situations being unable to stand the person that is so similar to them. But there are enough distinctions that it's just as fascinating as Puppyshipping imo: Sieg being born into money while Seto is adopted; Seto getting the I² contract over Sieg; different relationships with their brothers.

Buddyshipping: Joey Wheeler x Tristan Taylor

Best friends with benefits. These two are a package deal canonically anyways, let's just raise the stakes, yeah? Seriously though, there's deep care between these two that gets explored a bit better in the manga I think, but they're teenage guys being idiots about liking each other, so they insult each other as friends instead.

We'll cover some yuri ships next time!

can we pretend that rockets in the night sky are shooting stars?
