Using the computer as a babysitter for Jed and Octavius is all fun and games until they figure out how to use Larry’s credit card

#And they will #To be clear it’ll still be fun just not for Larry #Larry won’t know until McPhee goes “you CANNOT keep getting your Amazon boxes delivered here”#“If you wanna buy 45 sunlamps 65 remote controlled miniature tanks 7 pairs of heelys a kiddie pool and 120 extension cords that fine but-#Now Larry has to try and think of a way to write this off as a business expense while sounding sane #I don’t think “The dead 17 year oId pharaoh I’m in charge of hasn’t seen the sun in four thousand years-#and honestly if he wants to have his magical jackals trail behind him holding sun lamps then I really can’t be the one to stop him”#Will go over well.#To be fair presenting that bill to the museum board might work. as far as they know he spends every night of his life in a dark museum #He also hasn’t seen the sun in months #Is it concerning that he apparently brought in a sand box and the maximum buyable number of lights that imitate sunlight? Yeah #Is it less concerning than “ancient reanimated corpse likes laying face down in the sand under a bunch of lights for enrichment”?#Also yeah #”what about the ultra realistic working doll sized cannons” “I just get bo- THE WHAT?”#My tags are a masterpiece #Teddy is delighting in the wonders of mustache gel #shitpost #jedtavius #Natm #night at the museum #larry daley #natm jedediah #natm octavius #natm larry

It's always "childhood friends because Atem moved to Japan as a kid" and never "childhood friends because Yugi went to a dig in Egypt with his grandpa and met Atem in the streets of Cairo." Give me Atem and Yugi penpal friendship because Sugoroku knows Atem's family from his archeologist circles. Give me Yugi being interested in mythology because he's a goth nerd and we all were and Atem trying to impress him with stories about the gods but he keeps getting shit wrong because he just never payed much attention to it before

Give me Atem teaching Yugi how to play some of the local games and Yugi thinking he's the coolest person ever. Give me Yugi being friends with Mana and Mahaad because of Atem and all of them going on little adventures together. Ya know

#yugioh #puzzleshipping #mana #mahaad #I'm SORRY if I just think these AU's are cuter if they meet in egypt bc of the archeology stuff #I want atem's family to be a bunch of historians and museum runners #and for atem himself to have absolutely no interest in any of that because he's 7 and would rather #play board games with his friends and go running between food stalls

Antler 'King' Chessman, 12th Century CE, from Habrough, North Lincolnshire Museum, Scunthorpe

Chess originated in India where the king was shown mounted on an elephant. The two steps on the front of the Habrough king represent the elephant's forehead and the howdah in which the king rode.

Kindly loaned to North Lincolnshire Museum by Habrough Parochial Church Council.
