What other Yugioh ships do you like?

Only small handful of others really. Mostly ones I've had since I was a kid, I don't really delve much into shipping like I used to, though the ships I do ship I ship hard lolol

I've also only watched DM, GX, and 5Ds so there's that too on the quantity subject.

I've always been a champion of Yugi and Téa, peachshipping champion since day 1 baby I love them, the childhood friends to lovers angle is on of my favorites and I mean, look at Téa's duel with Crump in the virtual world and her and Yugi in that and him giving her his jacket cuz she's cold after that before they find Joey even though he's also freezing his ass off, they're just so sweet with each other 😭

I'm also a fan of Tristan and Serenity, when they're older. Like maybe they get together in their early 20's or something because she definately likes him back, but she's a little young. She's not that much younger than them, but still. When they're both older, super cute together. But also conversely to this......... I'm a massive chaseshipper.... I love Tristan and Duke.... I want them to kiss... I'm just saying, Duke only started showing interest in Serenity after Tristan made it clear he liked her from my recollection. He was just trying to make Tristan jealous and get his attention. That's my delusion and I'm sticking to it. Plus they are always getting pushed together in groups and they've slept up against each other more than once.... I'm so delusional right now it hurts akskksks

And when I was a kid I loved Atem and Mana. I loved the idea of them. It's one that's a really low-key ship for me I don't have any particularly strong opinions or stance about it but I'll probably take it with me to the grave regardless.

I've been screamed at for shipping Yugi and Atem with Téa and Mana and not each other when I never even cared much for that ship anyway I just don't interpret their relationship as romantic, so yeah. That turned me completely off of that ship I just wanna say. Also why I don't really engage with the DM side of the fandom anymore, especially when we're talking about shipping.

I used to be a fan of Joey and Mai as a ship when I was a kid, but not as much these days. I mean, if she wasn't like 10 years older than him, that would be one thing. But she is, so that kinda wrecks it when he's not an adult as well... y'know..? Even then, 10 years is a bit too big of a gap for me regardless haha

--

In GX I really only ship spiritshipping and stormshipping. I mean, Jaden and Jesse was the only ship I really shipped for a while.... then my third eye opened and now Chazz and Atticus have my entire heart and are now my entire creative brand mostly so akskkskslzlzl

I also like the idea of Bastion and Tania, but I feel like I need more information about her before I can commit to shipping them or not. Like... I don't know how old she is, you know? That makes me hesitate a little bit haha

Also shoutout to Nightshroud and SoL!Chazz!!! LaDDshipping you fuckin' hit!

Bonus shoutout to Sheppard and Dorothy, stop it they're so cute!

--

The ship in 5Ds I like the most is Jack and Carly, bar none. Scoopshipping supremacy is my middle name! I shipped them before I even watched then show, dude. I watched it because of them. And they did not disappoint....... until the writers took their relationship out back and shot it by basically pretending it didn't exist in the 2nd half but shhhhhhhhhhhh ignore that!!! The best het ship in the original trilogy of shows argue with the wall.

Also a big fan of Yusei and Akiza, but like with Tristan hilarious cuz Tristan and Yusei are both voiced by Greg Abbey 🤣 I also ship the fuck out of Yusei and Bruno. I have cried thinking about them. Jack and Carly and Yusei and Bruno have made me sob profusely.

Also shoutout to Trudge and Mina! She doesn't deserve him with all her Jack bullshit but dammit love it anyway!

--

So yeah, those are the only ships I personally ship or I guess have shipped in the past *cough* Joey and Mai *cough* . Just a small handful really, like I said. Never been a massive shipper by way of quantity. I latch onto things too hard to have a billion and 1 anyway 😂😂😂

[fableworld]

It is truly hard for me to say how those two relationships are. Tristan clearly sees Serenity as a love interest, while I get the feeling that Serenity is uncomfortable with the large confession of love he and Duke have a habit of making. She does care about Tristan; I can't deny that, but it is hard to say if it is love or more out of guilt with what happened to Tristan in the virtual world. Personally, I don't think Serenity is looking for love at first. She has been stuck in a hospital most of her childhood and is now ready to see the world and spend more time with her beloved older brother. Love for her is more like trying a new thing, but it is not something she actively seeks. Again, I do think she cares for Tristan, but it is more in an "older brother's best friend" type of way rather than directly seeking it. Tristan, on the other hand, sees Serenity as having the potential for a love interest. It is already established that he has a thing for cute-looking girls, and he might think he has a bigger chance with Serenity since she is his best pal's sister, even if Joey looks more ready to castrate him than let him near his dear little sister. He is ardent about protecting and caring for her. He is ready to do anything for her, and yet again, he has a habit of setting himself on fire to keep her warm. It might work, it might not. It depends on you who asks.

[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.

The Seven Labors of Mokuba Kaiba

Well, the cat’s out of the bag, and this year’s Yu-Gi-Oh! Mini-Exchange fics have finally been revealed!

The NaNoWriMo story I alluded to finishing the other day is The Seven Labors of Mokuba Kaiba, written for brightbriar, and you can read it on Archive of Our Own here:

https://archiveofourown.org/works/27807586/chapters/68078941

Summary: Mokuba Kaiba wants to get the perfect present for his brother Seto's upcoming 30th birthday in less than a month. The only problem is, to get what he wants, he'll need to wheel and deal his way across two continents, negotiate with old friends, and face his fears of some old foes. Can he do it, or will he be stuck playing second fiddle to Seto Kaiba for the rest of his life?

Warnings: Mostly gen, but has some background relationships, including light Polarshipping and Ardentshipping, and one-sided Boxshipping, Peachshipping, and Revolutionshipping. Post-canon anime-verse, with characters aged up, if it wasn’t obvious from the summary above.

15/15 chapters (COMPLETE!), approximately 60,450 words.

If you read it, please take a moment to comment and let me know what you think.

I’ll do an “Easter Egg Explainer” post here on Tumblr later this week, so stay tuned!

ETA: @kaibacorpintern​ inspired this fic with a thread talking about Kaiba Corp. holiday parties, which devolved into me loving the idea of Anzu somehow working for Kaiba Corporation and being at said holiday party, only to challenge Kaiba to a DDR dance-off, because he was (perhaps drunkenly) accepting anyone who dared to challenge him to any game.

But then I got to wondering: why would she be working for Kaiba Corporation and why wouldn’t he know? Why would Seto be averse to the concept of ‘schmoozing’ and its benefits? Why would Mokuba keep insisting Seto show up at these company holiday parties, and he’d only FINALLY show up and have a good time when it’s at an arcade?

All of these questions led me to this “prologue” story to my forthcoming Love and the Art of Schmoozing. But seeing as 7L (as I’ve been abbreviating it) is 15 chapters, it can also stand on its own. Not sure when I’ll get to LATAOS, but I will, one of these days. @kaibacorpintern, I hope you like the fic, even if it’s not quite the one I mentioned getting inspired to write... yet!

Yugioh Rare Pairs Chat!

Hey friendos I started a chat for Yugioh Rare Pairs and less appreciated ships. There's so many great ships in this fandom but I feel like there's a lot that fall in the background that deserve more love! Please join up if that seems like your thing to share art, fic rec, head canons etc 💗

[esperjester]

The Honda Family (from my WIP fic “Honestly”)

One of the drawings I did of the Yu-Gi-Oh! families I have for my fic Honestly on Ao3. I drew everything except for the background. (I googled free backgrounds for that because gahhh - you can get it here [x] if you want it.) Ardentshipping is one of the main side ships in the fic and Tetsuya is the result of their union.

(Honestly is a Puppyshipping Single Parent AU where Jonouchi becomes Kaiba’s bodyguard to pay for his son’s eye surgery (same issues as his aunt) and rom-com typical hijinks ensue. It’s a WIP but I plan to update it soon now that work is slowing down!)

Honda Tetsuya is the son of Honda Hiroto and (Kawai) Shizuka. He’s a very sweet and genuine little boy who tends to get dragged into troublesome situations by his older cousin, Kouta, who he loves and admires very much. He managed to avoid his mother’s debilitating condition, but still has bad eyesight and requires glasses as a result. As the baby of the family, he’s shy and easily intimidated, but it’s likely that as he grows up he’ll gain more confidence due to having such a good support system around him.

Tristan: ...because I have not!

[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.
