Hi friends ^.^
I've been absent for a while, and there are multiple reasons for that, but long story short- I lost all my writing motivation and any joy I ever had for creating. I worried that it would never come back. I still worry that it won't ever return to the way it used to be but I can happily say that it's not quite as bad now.
Unexpectedly the passion for writing came back yesterday, out of nowhere, just bam, you can write again! So I've been slowly working on the next chapter of Area of Effect and just wanted to share a little piece of it with you. <3 <3
Thank you to those of you who have been supporting me through what has been an honestly awful time, and thank you for your patience.
.............
“What are we playing for?” He asked.
Atem laughed as he handed him a can, sitting down on the floor opposite him.
“Do you only play when stakes are involved?” Atem asked him.
“I do when someone questions my abilities.” He huffed.
“Oh yeah?” Atem smirked, leaning back on his hands as he looked back at him. “Well then, perhaps we should make things more interesting, hm?”
“I’m keen to hear what you’re thinking.” He said with a smile, taking a sip of the drink he’d been given.
Atem hummed, looking around the room then back at the board between them.
“Hang on.” Atem said, pushing himself up onto his hands and knees, crawling a few paces to the shelves against the wall where he began to rummage for something. Yami decided to sip his drink again and try to keep his eyes off Atems ass. He failed. “Ah. Here.”
Atem returned to his spot opposite him and placed a box of playing cards between them. He looked up at Atem and raised an eyebrow.
“Can you play poker?” Atem asked him.
“Yeah.” He laughed. “Although it might not be the best choice, I’d hate to take all of your money.”
Atems lips pulled up into a confident smirk, his eyes held the promise of a challenge and Yami felt his stomach turn in excitement.
“Oh I wasn’t thinking we’d play for money.” Atem told him. “I was thinking about something else we could both lose…”
He tilted his head to the side, placing his drink down on the floor next to him. He couldn’t think of anything else they could bet, maybe it was just a matter of pride? Maybe that's all Atem meant.
“Like what?” He asked.
“Ever played strip poker?” Atem asked.
Yami almost choked on his own breath, that was something he hadn’t expected to hear at all…but maybe it would be a good idea… he would like to see Atem wearing significantly less than he was right now after all.
“You’re sure about that?” He said.
“I am.” Atem smiled at him. “But are you? I’ve been told I’m quite good at this game.”
“I guess we’ll see about that.” He said with a laugh. “I’m in.”
“Wonderful.” Atem grinned at him then pushed the board and game pieces to the side that they’d been using previously. He watched as Atem opened the box of cards, tipped them out and shuffled them deftly.
Atem had clearly done this many times before, and perhaps Yami would have been impressed by the way he moved the cards effortlessly between his hands, how he fanned them out and slid them back together, but no…his mind was firmly in the gutter as he wondered just how those hands would feel on him.
He cleared his throat awkwardly and took another sip of his drink, although they both knew they were very clearly interested in each other, they hadn’t quite managed to talk about what they wanted from this yet.
But here they were, about to play strip poker and he was going to lose his mind he was sure.
Their cards were dealt and the game began. Unexpectedly, he lost the first round. With a sigh, he reached up to his hair, pulling out his hair tie and dropping it to the floor between them.
He picked up his can and took another sip before he caught the way Atem was looking at him. “What?” He asked as he lowered the can.
“You do know the rules of this game, right?” Atem asked, eyebrows raised.
“Of course I do.” He scoffed. “Do you?”
The noise Atem made was a mix of shock and irritation. “So tell me how a hair tie counts as clothing.”
He smirked, placing his can on the ground and leaning back on his hands, looking back at Atem, allowing himself just a moment more to enjoy the look on his face.
“Well clothing is something you wear, right?” He paused, Atem nodded. “And what do you do with a hair tie? You wear it. So I’d say that meets the definition of clothing.”
There was a moment where Atem said nothing, he just stared at him, then a smile tugged at his lips and he laughed.
“I knew there was a reason I liked you.” Atem said, shaking his head and chuckling as he shuffled the cards again. “Oh, this is going to be fun.”
He grinned as Atem dealt the next hand.

Finally it's here~! I wanted to finish these back in Dec, but only managed to finish them now. A shame since they're meant to be a holiday gift of sorts... but whatever, it's never too late to celebrate anything, especially if it's the talented work of others!
So as a thank you for accompanying me and many others through the year that was 2022, I drew some works for some of my favorite ygo fics, plus a few classics! I would’ve made more too but time’s against me... alas, I hope you'll enjoy regardless \(^∀^)メ(^∀^)ノ
The Last Puzzle - @tenderwulf Chained To You - @saijspellhart (also a bonus! as @b0ssb1tchhath0r requested this specific scene... *checks hand* oh god 5 months ago--) Board the Red Eye - @puzzl-d As The Sun Rises - @cloudsmachinations Do You Dream of Me? - @laryna6 The Writer - @hikariandyamiblog Sympathetic Magic - A Perplexing Puzzle and The Naked King (psst if any of you know any of the other writers' tumblrs (if they have one) do tell me 'kay?)
and of course honorable mentions for the smutty works of @fat-butch-dyke and @melffy-puppy Which are too many to draw for but I think I got the gist of what they're vouching for ∠( ᐛ 」∠)_ ...
So thanks all you super cool ygo writers for doing what you do! I'm glad to find a fun space where all sorts of works can appear: soft fluff, intense plots, eldritch shadow horrors... there's a little for everyone here, and it's amazing to be able to read through them all!
Please take these as my love in visual form (as I have the social skills of a dried raisin) and I hope to see whatever cool things you guys make in the following years~!

Just in case anyone is interested: here is another chapter of Kitten for your reading pleasure.
Warnings are still the same for violence, smut and torture. Atemu is still unhinged (and I love him for it - as does Yami).
Pairing: Monarchshipping - Atemu x Yami - from Yugioh

Ok but the logic doesn't exist here fic 👀. I am incredibly curious on that one
(@melffy-puppy since I believe you asked for this as well-) You ask and you shall receive. It was an idea that I had ages ago and I had to rewrite it since I didn't like the original. Safe to say, I got a little carried away. >:)
I'm always self-conscious of my work, but especially smut. I tried my best and that's that. This is a small snippet of what I wrote in total, but if you guys like it, then I'll post the rest on AO3 (it's longer than I intended-and that's what she said...)
For those who didn't see the post that this ask is referring to, here's the prompt I created for myself: Atem gets fucked by Yugi/Yami (who are switching back and forth continuously to overwhelm him).
If that steamy smut doesn't interest you, then don't read! Otherwise, please enjoy! Thanks again for the ask! <3
Atem wasn't entirely sure how he got into this position-literally. Being bent over a bed with hands gripping his hips and his face smushed into the mattress wasn't a familiar experience for him.
The sheets were twisted up between his fingers and he was staring at the wall through a foggy haze of lust. Moans were falling from his mouth as he was getting pounded into, each impale inside him forcing another noise out.
The relentless pace slowed down and he whined, raising his head, "Yugi... Yugi, please, don't tease me-"
HIs begging was cut off by his own gasp when that sadistic pace suddenly returned. He choked on a sob and dropped his head onto the mattress again. He rocked his hips back onto Yugi's dick and ignored the drool that was dripping down his lips.
Much to his dismay, though, he slowed down once more. Atem groaned and propped up on his elbows, peering over his shoulder... Only to realize that Yugi was no longer with him. Instead, it was the other half of Yugi; the side of him that Atem never thought he'd see.
The tight hold on his hips loosened and palms roamed further underneath him. He dragged them down his thighs briefly, then one hand landed protectively on his stomach. Atem extended his arms completely as he stared at the man.
"Yami...?" He breathed out with an unsure tone, still struggling to comprehend what was going on. It didn't help that he was being filled to the brim and on the verge of orgasming right there.
"Yami" said nothing in response to him, simply holding his stare with an intense one of his own. He covered Atem's hand with his, intertwining their fingers as he leaned in closely. Atem's gaze flickered down to his lips, a small whimper coming from his throat.
Hesitantly, the distance between them closed and Atem's lashes fluttered as he melted into it. Where Yugi was rough when things turned sexual, Yami was gentle. Although, both kisses were filled with passion and Atem could feel himself slipping from the grasps of reality.
Never breaking the kiss, Yami guided Atem to move into another position, putting him on his side this time. He pushed one leg to his chest and draped the other over his shoulder. Atem felt extremely exposed, but how could he care? Especially not when Yami was sliding back into him and wrapping a hand around his cock-Gods.

Hey everyone, I got a prompt I wanna share.
Apocalypse
In a world after an apocalypse where half the human race was fused with insect and arachnid DNA and a fourth died out from the initial bombs. Yugi Ryou and Malik must survive when a botched spell sends then years in the future where hints of magic and technology have almost gone. Now pure humans live as lower class citizens trying to survive in a world where people could change to hybrid insects at any moment.

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. spread the self-love ❤
Oh gosh, thank you so much for this xD I actually don't know what to recommend since I'm generally not as confident with my writing style? But no worries! I gotchu, I have a few which I can recommend with uhhh, decent writing I'd say? I'm too lazy to update most of the time, so I only have 14 fanfics at most 🥹✋💖 Here's a list of them.
1. Time Weave— This is a Weilan Derivative fic with Time Engraver as the focus, here we have a rather popular but elusive god, Fate Weaver, who comes to bother him in his workshop.
2. Show Me How You Exercise— This is basically just Zhao Yunlan thirsting over Shen Wei in their shared home when he walks in on his husband. Handy description, thirsty words needed and said 🤣
3. On Angelic Wings— If you're into Monarchshipping/Sanityshipping, then this fic might just be for you. This is a fantasy AU where Atem goes to the land of Aethernus and meets a rather fascinating commoner who managed to sneak in the gathering of kings and competitors for the treaty of the Kingdom of Aethernus.
4. Birds of Another Feather— This is a Monarchshipping AU which involves black and brown falcons. This story is co-authored by Puzzl.d and I 🥰 so if you're up for bird people, give this a read 💖
5. Wants— This is a Guardian AU. One with the personification of Life and Death. Basically, just two gods wandering about and doing their job in the cycle of humanity and living and dying. If you're into that kind of fanfic. Then this is just for you! 💖💖
That would be all for now! Thank you for the tag 💖💖 I don't know who else to tag as well soooo feel free if you want to? 🥰💖

NEW FIC NEW FIC JUST DROPPED BESTIES! FINALLY GOT MY LAZY BUTT TO WRITE AND FINISH THIS FANFIC!!
This is a late birthday gift fic for Akira Storm/Arashi. May you live a long and prosperous life, friend! Enjoy the goody~
Title: On Angelic Wings
Rating: Teen and Up Audiences
Pairing: Yami Yuugi/Atem
Summary:
When Atem received a letter from the crown of Aeternus, he didn't think he'd accept it and would've happily discarded the letter if not for such an impulsive last minute decision.
Now he stands within the walls of the Aeternus palace, thrilled by the thought of a challenge that was soon to come. Even more so when a redhead with sharp crimson eyes approached him.
His stay in Aeternus has gotten just a little more interesting...

Hi friends <3
I hit 250 followers not long ago and I truly appreciate everyone who is here and supporting my nonsense brand of silly romance writing, so I'm opening asks for writing prompts, how about you pick one and I'll write you a little something? ^.^
All I ask is that you bear in mind I am human, and I'm currently signed off work for depression, so replies may be slow coming but with a little patience I would very much like to give back to you all and express my gratitude in giving you all something to smile about.
So, some rules (kinda)
I'm good with-- nsfw (but you'll have to give my Ace brain a while to get around this), Kinks, AU stuff, Cannon stuff.
I'm NOT good with --Humiliation, non-con, dub-con, unnecessary violence toward one character, incest.
I will give any ship a go, but please bear in mind that my works have been mainly Puzzle and Monarch thus far. If you would like me to write something for a specific idea, trope, setting, I'm up for it so ask away <3 Also A-okay with writing more for any fic I have previously written if you ask nicely <3
So what are you waiting for friend? Pick a prompt and pick a ship and let me at it <3 <3
“Please, don’t leave.”
"Stay your hand soldier, I want to keep this one."
“Teach me how to play?”
"You're not okay...are you?"
“You come here often?”
"No one has to know..."
“If you die, I’m gonna kill you.”
"Oops...did I just say that out loud?"
"You...love me?"
"Stay with me tonight?"
"I remember practising how to ask you out in the mirror."
"If I could, I would kiss away all of your scars."
"Please, let me help you."
"You're so warm."
"Have you been drinking? You look terrible."
"I like the way your hand fits in mine."
"You just...you look really cute is all."
"You don't need to leave so soon."
"Shut up and take off your clothes."
"Are you single? Just uh, asking for a friend..."
"That won't work, try again."
"I thought you were taken."
"Don't give me space. That's the last thing I want with you."
"Not everyone is out to get you, you know."
"Am I too late?"
"I dreamt about you last night..."
"I'm yours, remember."
"What if someone see's us?"
"Talk to me."
"You need to let me go."
"You're wearing way too many clothes for what I have in mind."
"Jealousy seems to be a great motivator for you."
"I'm sure I could make you feel better."
"Your eyes are already saying yes, now I just need your mouth to tell me the same."
"I think I could use that hug right now."
"Good morning, my love"
"I am not proud of the things I said to you"
"Do you still have feelings for me?"
"I adore you."
"I don't ever want to lose you again."
Free space! Go for it ^.^
Tell someone you love them <3
Bastet xx

Hey, I love your writing and I saw you're taking requests!
Can you please do "Stay with me tonight?" where Yami was upset from something and Atem comforted him and then Yami asks Atem to stay. It can be NSFW too! Whatever you like but it should be really cute and sweet, please! ❤️❤️❤️
Aw, thank you for the kind words and support, they are so appreciated <3
Another Monarch request! Yay! I love these two, I will always love these two.
I hope this is sweet enough for you, I went with a roommates situation, a friends with benefits agreement turned into genuine feelings of affection, a sad Yami and an ever supportive Atem. The nsfw wouldn't quite come to me- Ace brain go brrrrr, but the not so subtle hints are there.
I hope you enjoy <3
..........
Yami sighed happily as he fell against the bed, satisfied and tired. Usually he’d roll away from the man in his bed, turn his back and lay there until the other took the hint and left but tonight he didn’t.
Tonight he needed more than just physical company.
He rolled toward the other, pressed his body against his side and smiled to himself as an arm came to rest around him, pulling him closer.
His head fell heavily against the other's chest, and he relaxed into the embrace of the man he’d fallen into this strange dynamic with so long ago.
Atem.
They’d lived together with two mutual friends for roughly six months now, but they’d been friends for much longer. Since moving in together though, they’d developed a dynamic which worked for them outside of the typical roommates helping with bills…or it used to work anyway.
He held back a sigh and closed his eyes.
The first night they’d slept together had been purely accidental, they were drunk, their friends were out of the flat and somehow they got onto the topic of relationships, or lack of it seemed.
Then Yami had made a comment about just wanting someone to fuck sometimes but after a string of disappointing one night stands, he’d grown tired and frustrated. He’d been venting his frustrations to Atem that night, and Atem had offered to help him out.
If he’d have been sober he never would have accepted such a proposal, wouldn’t have been able to give himself the knowledge of just what Atem could be like with him if he’d grow a pair and tell his friend how he felt…how he’d felt for months.
But lady luck always seemed to smile on him and his drunk mind thought it was a fucking brilliant idea to climb into Atems lap and tell him he’d be happy to accept his offer. That first night was amazing, it was satisfying in a way no other one night stand ever had been and he knew he was in too deep but…it was all too easy for him to fall into a friends with benefits type relationship with Atem.
He was in this situation because he was selfish, he knew that. He was well aware of the fact. This arrangement meant that he could sleep with Atem, he could have the object of his affections in his bed any night he wanted. Atem was always only too happy to follow him when Yami gave him that look, and he relished that.
Only, maybe that relationship had started to grow beyond just the physical, for Yami at least.
He liked Atem, like, really liked him.
But he couldn’t just say that, no. He’d only complicate things if he did.
Atem was his friend, his best friend, and maybe he was his lover too…he wasn’t too sure what label to put on what they were really.
But all of that was about to change, he was sure of it. Their mutual friends had told them a week ago that they were moving out, one of them had met the love of their life and was moving in with her and the other had a new job opportunity he had to move towns for.
He knew him and Atem wouldn’t be able to afford this place by themselves and that they’d have to work out what to do sooner or later but he was scared that Atem wouldn’t want to live with him anymore, that he’d move out and find someone else and Yami would be completely alone.
And that line of thought was what led him to walking into the living room an hour ago where Atem was working on another assignment for his degree with nothing on but a small pair of shorts on which left very little to the imagination, what possessed him to raise a hand and beckon Atem toward his room with a wink and a sultry look.
…and now he was left feeling exactly as he had before Atem warmed his bed.
He couldn’t help sinking a little further into Atems arms, wishing that his touch would take away the feeling inside him that their time was limited.
He felt the tears sting his eyes.
“Stay with me tonight?” He whispered, not daring to look up.
He knew the words sounded desperate, but that was exactly how he felt right now.
“Are you okay?” Atem asked softly, a hand came to rest against his chin, trying to pull Yami's face toward him but he didn’t want to look at Atem right now, if he did, he’d cry and he wasn’t sure he was ready to face his friends reaction to that just yet.
“I’m just…” He took a breath, resisting the others touch and Atem relented, his hand cupped his cheek gently instead. “Feeling kinda lonely right now…you know I don’t see my family much since they’re so far away, and with the others moving away I just…I don’t wanna be left alone, you know?”
“I’m not going anywhere.” Atem said, his hand sliding around to the back of his neck, fingers brushing through his messy hair. “You won’t be alone as long as I’m here.”
“I just feel like everyone is leaving though.” He said sadly, leaning into Atems gentle touches and wishing they meant more. “And maybe you’ll leave like all the others…and then what? Where am I?”
“Yami…” Atem breathed his name so softly, the hand left his hair and his arm wrapped around his back, pulling him closer. “I’m not going anywhere…What’s gotten into you? Has something happened?”
“Nothing yet.” He said with a sigh, turning his head to hide in Atems chest, closing his eyes tightly and telling himself not to cry. “It’s just…I don’t have anyone else to live with around here, and I don’t want to be alone…”
"Try to put that out of your mind for now." Atem said softly, he huffed out a laugh.
"You say that like it's easy."
“I know you, I know it's hard but I’ll stay here with you.” Atem said quietly, lips pressed against his head. “Right here. For as long as you want me to.” Atem’s free hand moved to take his, fingers slipping easily between his own and holding him tightly.
“You can just pretend if you like, I don’t care.” He said softly against Atems chest. “I just…really need someone right now and there’s not many people I trust enough to let them see me this way.”
Atem tensed under him, the arm around him tightened, the hand holding his moved as if to let go but then held just a little tighter.
“What if it wasn’t pretend though?” Atems voice was quiet and had they not been so close, he may not have been able to make out the words.
“Well I guess…” He paused and opened his eyes, looking at their hands, their fingers intertwined...this felt too right to be wrong and he dared to hope. “I guess that’d be just fine with me.”
Atem laughed softly, moving again and gently turning his body. Yami knew he was trying to get him to move so he would look at him…and maybe it wouldn’t be so bad to be just a little vulnerable.
He moved to the side, Atem settled so he was laying on his side too, facing him, a gentle hand came to cup his cheek and he offered a small smile which Atem returned.
“If I stop pretending now though, I just need you to know…” Atem said softly. “I may not be able to go back to how we were.”
Yami chewed his lip, looking back into the eyes of the man he’d fallen for long ago, the man he never expected to be in this situation with, then he smiled.
“I don’t think I’d want you to go back to how we were.” He said quietly.
“Yeah?” Atem grinned at him.
“Yeah.” He said.
Atem breathed out a soft laugh, shuffled a little closer to him and took his hand once more.
“Then I won’t leave you.” Atem said. “No matter what else happens, you’ll have me right here.”
He nodded quickly, chewing his lip again and trying to blink away the tears.
“You don’t have to be strong with me.” Atem whispered. “Let me share your burdens.”
And with those words, the dam broke and he felt the hot tears sliding down his cheeks. They were brushed away by careful fingers, strong arms wrapped tightly around him and he was pulled closer. He pressed his face against Atems shoulder, letting himself feel and letting Atem hold him.
This wouldn’t be the first time Atem had seen him a mess, this man had been there for the end of Yami’s last relationship, he’d sat with him for hours, helped him move out his things, stood by his side when his ex tried to force his way back into his life and had been the one who put a stop to that trainwreck.
He’d seen Yami cry, seen him un-showered for days, seen his hair messed and matted, helped him through the toughest of times and never once had he ever made Yami feel lesser.
He’d never made him feel weak, never made him feel wrong or like he was broken, even though he felt that way for a long time.
So of course, why would he treat him any differently now?
