#diceshipping

[fableworld]

what happens if you put two snarky guys with stubborn attitudes and killer glares? You get these two. really, most of their interaction is Bakura mocking Duke and Duke 'kindly' telling Bakura to mind his own business. can you imagine what would happen if those two actually worked together? you either end up dead, or you're never going to recover the confidence in the insults they will throw at you.

The duo and the whole school will fawn over and fear at the same time. it would be such a fantastic disaster.

Maybe they are too much alike in some part of their personality, so it could never work. If Duke ever tries to throw a dice at Bakura, his body will never be found. Bakura wouldn't even care that Duke is walking around until he messes with his mission of getting the Millennium items. They got into each other's business by pretty much throwing stones at each other's glass houses.

Diceshipping

Never been much of a fan of this one. I just don't think they'd like each other enough.

Puffshipping

I don’t know them enough | wtf | why | just NO | tolerable | they’re okay | cute | awww | babies | hot | I will go down with this ship | OTP

I get the appeal, but it isn't one of my favorites. It definitely is cute though.

Thank you thank you for the ask ❤️

btw otogi/ryou is apparently called minorshipping and i hate that but diceshipping is already otogi/yami bakura. what would this be???? monstershipping, since dungeon dice Monsters and Monster world?

(ik it means minor like minor characters but man. it doesnt feel good to say "i like minorshipping")

anyways no ryou and otogi have never interacted in canon but i do what i want

[bakawitch]

Bakura for the ask game

Sorry for the late reply! Never got a notification and I just checked my ask box for the first time in forever... Anyway let's get to it!

(I'm gonna assume you meant Yami Bakura but do let me know if I assumed wrong!)

My NOTP for them: Vexshipping (Yami Bakura X Mazaki Anzu/Téa Gardner). I do not understand it, I do not get it, it does not require any further explanation.

My BROTP for them: Psychoshipping (Yami Bakura X Yami Malik)! I don't really have any reason for it, but I really enjoy the idea of Bakura and his idiot little brother who has no idea how the world works and asks Bakura all sort of questions that the answers should be quite obvious to, but Bakura is also stupid and in order to save his pride rather than admitting that he has not even the slightest clue about the subject makes up a stupid lie which Yami Malik immediately believes and continues to live his life believing that lie. It's pretty dumb but I still think it's funny XD

My OTP for them: For this my answer is obviously Tendershipping (Yami Bakura X Ryou Bakura) XD. This is pretty much the ship I started raving about since the day I joined tumblr. At this point I don't really remember why I started shipping them, other than I really enjoy their dynamic. They went through so much and I feel so guilty that I still want to read angst to fluff fics about them, but hey, the payoff is always worth it the end of the fic!

My second choice pairing for them: This is kind of hard, but probably Thiefshipping (Yami Bakura X Malik Ishtar)? It was one of my first ships coming into the fandom so I guess this is as a good place as any to put it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My fluffy pairing for them: TENDERSHIPPING

My angsty pairing for them: EVEN MORE TENDERSHIPPING

My favorite poly ship for them: For me this usually is Conspire/Fractureshipping (Yami Bakura X Ryou Bakura X Malik Ishtar X Yami Malik (X Thief King Bakura)) or any variation from whoever's part of it (Bakushipping, Tornshipping, etc.) for the sole reason that I want them happy 😊

My weirdest pairing for them: Diceshipping (Yami Bakura X Otogi Ryuji/Duke Devlin)! They're cute and they're both into dice idk it's weird, doesn't make sense but I like it!

(The ask thing is still on feel free to send any characters if you like 👍)

Duke. You’re a slut.

He’s sexy, dice bitch and hair twister.

Sometimes, I amuse myself with some Minorshipping, but I really think should be called Diceshipping.  “Minorshipping” should be between YB and Duke

Based off a Golden Girls moment.

Yugioh Yaoi Doujinshi - Otogi Main

Trying to post up my odd-end collections, I think I only got this again cuz it had Yami Bakura in it…

Scanned and edited from my collection, so please enjoy!

If you know it or know anyone who like to translate, I will be grateful! Please enjoy and give credit if you are using the scans!

Anime: Yugioh

Title: “Love Marionette”

Pair: Yami Bakura x Otogi (Diceshipping)?, plus minor appearances by his Dad, Yugi and Jou…

Rated: R-18  -  Not my cup of tea shipping (sorry!), somehow it still ended up in my collection? lol Otogi Main, Yami Bakura messes around with him and the rest is his Dad fantasies - even a Revolutionary Girl Utena reference?! Not 100% sure on details, maybe others can better interpret!

Author/Circle: ???

D10SHIP

I've been arguing for this "diceship" for Ryou and Otogi for a long ass time. Minor should be Bakura and Otogi.

@justapalspal is it really called minorship?? Who the fuck ?? Missed opportunity for diceship if ya ask me,.,.

[rosalind-hawkins]

Diceshipping for the ask game?

Ask Game

1. What made you ship it?

The short answer is: my own imagination.

It's one that I've only recently given serious thought to, so this is a new one that I'm playing with. I like to think that if Yami Bakura had met Duke during Duke's villain phase, they might have teamed up, not because Bakura would have seen Duke as an asset to him, but because he thought he could use Duke as a distraction for Yugi and co while YB does his own thing. I think he would have found Duke too interesting to toy with to get rid of after that. As villains together, they would have very Fatal Attraction vibes and be a super possessive, fucked-up couple in a way that's fun to watch but horrible for real life. Duke keeps trying to prove he should be Bakura's focus instead, and as a result keeps getting in the way. Bakura is his mentor in villainy. Duke will absolutely turn on him if he ever finds out that Bakura killed Pegasus, and then it becomes a "if I'm going down, I'm taking you down with me" mutual-destruction-but-at-least-we're-together kind of thing.

All evil and villainy aside, I think YB (esp the Season Zero version) would actually really enjoy Dungeon Dice Monsters. Then he sees the hottie who invented it, and in the most unhinged way possible, he says "I want to devour you" (because that's him trying to flirt) and Duke sees it for exactly what it is but laughs and says, "Get in line, pal, you're not the only one," and Bakura realizes he has to prove himself worthy of his attention (that's always going to be a theme with this ship). So he does his usual attempts at getting to know someone: digging through their trash, stalking them online, breaking into their home—and decides that since DDM means so much to Duke and us something Bakura also enjoys, he's going to prove him myself by winning a DDM tournament. Duke is present at the tournament of course and sees Bakura's efforts and realizes that he isn't just one of his fans and is seriously interested, so Duke decided to give this raccoon of a man a chance. You know they shop at Hot Topic together to be their fabulous goth selves and bond over dice collecting.

2. What's your favorite thing about this ship?

Goth dice dorks bonding over complex dungeon games.

Duke is the bad bitch that Bakura pulled by being autistic.

Duke doesn't care about Bakura being an eldritch magical monster of destruction, he will still call him Babygirl~ and Bakura gets flustered just trying to process that.

And if we go with Duke x Zorkura, you know Dukey Boi becomes a certified monster-fucker, and is proud of it.

3. Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?

I don't know that this rare pair even has popular or unpopular opinions on it, but I do think it might be uncommon for people to consider both the villain and non-villain potentials for this ship, because I think most people forget about Duke's villain phase (or Duke entirely 😭).

I did just realize that they lowkey have the same vibes as Thiefshipping without the toxicity or the mind control, and I feel like that opens up a whole new world of possibilities. 👀👀👀👀

I kinda want you to write Yami Bakura/ Ryou Bakura as a half British person who curses or insults people in English like Marik or Yami Yugi anytime they annoy him. He would teach people the wrong meaning behind English words like Jonouchi or Honda as well as teaching them insulting phrases to them and pretend it means something nice all while as disguised as Ryou.

What's good my guy. It's done. No Marik, Yami, or much of Honda. You get Duke. You get Ryou/Yami Bakura/Duke. That's what you get. Duke Devlin is better than all of them combined. Duke 🛐

CW: I didn't know what kind of insults you wanted in this fic, so Ryou says shit like "Faggot" and "Retard". Which is hilarious to me for some reason.

I'm never writing Ryou like this again.

Ryou had gotten it from his father. That much was obvious. Everytime Ryou was allowed to go on trips with him, he’d witness his dad lie to friends and coworkers.

The lies were never anything big. Just some misinformation about the English language and about the country itself. They weren’t world shattering, just inconvenient.

“Bitch means lover”, “The english put butter on their babies as sunscreen”, “history isn’t actually taught in schools there”, and the one Ryou always says “Fucking cunt is a term of endearment”.

The lies were always said with a smile on their faces. I remember the first time Ryou had tried to tell me one of these. He was around twelve, and the disappointment on his face when I knew he was lying, is a face I’ve burnt into my memory.

It’s entertaining, sure, but I never got the point of doing this. After some time it just became so boring! Always the same lies and misinformation everytime, because everyone always asks the same questions!

“How do you say *insult* in english?”

“You say it like *complete opposite of that word*.”

“How do you say *term of endearment* in english?”

“You say it like *derogatory insult*.”

It was always the same. Everytime. Loved one, baby, girlfriend, boyfriend, darling, any term of endearment that people wanted to know, was always instead told something along the lines of cunt, bitch, shit head, twat, faggot, rake, whore, whatever other insult or slur he could not only say but think of.

It was one of the only parts of Ryou’s day that I only stuck around for because I had always hoped someone would call him out. Just to see that look of despair on his face again. His soft, round eyebrows curling up and wrinkling his forehead slightly, his cute nose scrunching up like a bunny, his plush pink lips forming a small pout, before they flatten out into a straight line, and his big blue eyes looking down at the ground.

I’ve longed to see that face again. I knew full well that his classmates that had asked him these things, found out eventually. Lots of them had stopped approaching him for answers after some time. A few still did, but even they were beginning to get suspicious. 

Ryou’s friends hadn’t yet asked him anything about the language. Yugi already knew a good bit of the language, from paying attention in that class and his grandpa was fluent in it, Anzu was already at a conversational level and didn’t feel the need to learn any from him, Honda didn’t care about learning it, and Jonouchi… had no idea that Ryou was from England.

He had become an easy target for Ryou. Now if only he ever showed any interest in learning something. My poor Ryou sometimes drove himself insane, hoping and waiting for his dumb friend to just ask him what something, anything meant in english.

It was comical.

He’s so anxious for the day that it happens, that he’s begun to deny himself the joy of lying to others. Just in case they tell Jonouchi.

This wasn’t the way I’d wanted to see Ryou’s sweet happy face become ridden with disappointment, but it was close enough. It wasn’t as satisfying as it was when I’d make him do it, it wasn’t nearly enough.

I needed to take this into my own hands.

At night, this night, I controlled his body. He didn’t care tonight. His poor brain was exhausted from being the worst friend to ever exist.

The first step was actually pretty easy. I had become close enough to a rival of Ryou for this to work. Otogi, I think his name was? He’d let me in his circle because I was like if Ryou didn’t hate his games. Any past grudges between us were forgotten by him. So he was perfect for this.

It started with a phone call. I simply told him that I wanted to pull a small, petty prank on Ryou, but needed his help. He agreed to that, but found my “prank” to be incredibly lackluster. I agreed, but said the pay off would be everything to me.

Otogi’s job was easy, ask Ryou how to insult someone in english, get suspicious, then look up the answer in front of him. Since tomorrow was Sunday, and the two were planning on meeting up anyway for another dick measuring contest, this would be remarkably easy to pull off.

The next day, at about 11:42, Ryou and Otogi were at The Black Clown in one of the private game rooms. They weren’t playing anything yet, just having a heated debate on which game they should test first. 

Then, Otogi said the question, “y’know ryou, I’ve actually always wanted to know what ‘gamer’ was in english.”

Ryou thought for a second, then smiled widely, “No problem! It’s retard.”

My darling host, please I’m begging you to learn new slurs and swears.

Otogi made a face, “Really? That doesn’t sound right, could’ve sworn you’ve said that that meant something else… I should check.”

As Otogi pulled his phone out, Ryou’s face twisted in panic.

“No! No, that’s not necessary! Just trust me Ryuji!” Ryou grabbed onto his arm and tried to take his phone away. 

“Not with you acting like that! And get off me! You’re too close!” He tried to move out of my host's grip, but Ryou held tight, switching from his arms to his waist.

“Just trust me! I’d never lie to you!”

“Then why are you trying to keep me from looking it up?”

Ryou didn’t answer, he just kept trying to grab the phone. Funny as this was to watch, I was getting a bit impatient, so I took control of Ryou’s arms and locked him in place so Otogi could proceed with the plan.

“Ryou, why’d you lie about this?” Otogi showed Ryou the screen. He’d translated the word to its correct term. 

Ryou avoided looking at the screen. Just like the first time I’ve seen make that face, his eyebrows were scrunched up, his eyes were looking everywhere except for Otogi, and his lips started out in a pout then shifted to a straight line.

That’s the face I wanted!

I gave him his arms back, and immediately he buried his face in Otogi’s stomach.

“Is just funny…” he answered. 

Otogi’s face was blank, and he pet Ryou’s head. It couldn’t have been that hard to understand Ryou’s not at all funny habit. 

“The other you is so, so fucking weird…”
