tiny puzzle fluff ficlet written for @bibookdemon 💕

There was something captivating about the way Atem slept, the way he always looked so peaceful, still as a lake. Even if Yugi could never help but worry. Atem's breathing while he rested was so gentle, so soft Yugi could only barely feel it on the back of his hand. His chest was a better indicator; when Yugi placed his hand over Atem's heart, he could feel the slight rise and fall, as well as the faint thumping below. Atem's eyelids twitched, and Yugi paused, letting his hand rest in place as his soulmate woke up, one slow, bleary blink at a time. With a low, breathy chuckle, Atem laid a hand over Yugi's. "I'm still alive, partner," Atem murmured sleepily, lifting his other hand to rest it on Yugi's cheek, pulling him closer for a kiss. "I'll always wake up, as long as I have you to wake up to. I promise."

Thoughts on mental illness – demons of the subconscious (tuved a sainu)

Hokono netuno nonaf tuvediti a sainu

A community can banish demons of the subconscious.

In Jute, mental illnesses are generally viewed as demons overwhelming or even taking over a person’s mind by settling in the “wild”, untamed part of it, their subconscious. This is shared with the indigenous population of Lahan, showing it to be an ancient part of the Proto-Saru-Asuran people, the earliest known ancestors of Coastal and River Juteans, and was later spread to other people on the continent and Jute.

According to it, demons, immaterial and ethereal beings residing between the abstract sphere of ideas and physical world, prey on those who are weak and vulnerable and attach themselves to them, intimidating or subtly controlling them into behavior that chips away or robs them of their lifeforce (nisaif).

Whether demons are simply a natural force, and cause illness the way thunderstorms cause rumbling and flashing, or whether they are conscious beings doing this for their own benefit, varies from culture to culture.

Coastal Jutean descriptions tend towards the former, with demons resembling abstract waves that can crash against the mind like a flood, whereas in most other ones the view usually is more of the former. River Jutean mythology depicts them as humanoid ghost-like beings that are invisible except for the spiritually most trained priests, and make humans do absurd or terrible things for their own amusement, often coming together in groups to point and laugh. In valleys of the highlands on Lahan, demons are solitary and cunning creations of vapor known as Hazers that are breathed in, which has its origin in the toxic psychoactive substance Demon’s Breath emitted by the bluish-purplish Hazer plant growing in local jungles that can cause paranoia and depression.

Where there is widespread agreement on Jute is that it takes a village to help such a person. No one should be left behind to suffer and fight on their own, but rather remain part of the community, continuing their work when possible, resting at home, supported by donations, or having collectively paid treatment as much as the local population can afford it.

In practice, this can sometimes lead to a lack of privacy and behavior that might be seen as overbearing, as it is seen as normal, even expected, that people will inquire into another person’s health if they think something is wrong or heard anything to that effect. Advice and offers usually follow and can be unwarranted or unhelpful, but in general, this kind of community-based healthcare helps those suffering from mental illness to regain their footing, or do it faster. Some communities might have specialists offering their knowledge or specialized skills, like on Lahan this is usually done by priest-monks, but can also be done by nurses, herbalists or cooks.

OKAY, I FINALLY HAD TIME TO EDIT, here's chapter 2 of overtime, in which yugi and kaiba continue to make very questionable decisions about what's workplace appropriate behaviour, rapidly escalating because kaiba is unhinged

[aberfaeth]

josh ritter was so right when he said only a full house gonna have a prayer

[dominonary]

chapter two of lost and found, found and lost is up now!

[dominonary]

new shrimpshipping futureverse chapter is UP 🙌🙌 chapter 4 of scientific approach, in which blowjobs happen and also haga experimenting more with domming, to ryuzaki's horror and delight

[dominonary]

also, here's chapter 1 for that nsfw office rivalship fic i've been working on and vaguely talking about for a bit ✨

[dominonary]

truly my greatest struggle for the upcoming part of LaFFaL is how to address the original state of yugi's soul room

without talking about his

worm off the string

[dominonary]

oops! more shrimpshipping. just a short-ish cute one while they're still being idiots.

how many times can i put these guys in the shower before i get tired of it? answer: two and counting

[dominonary]

For the ao3 wrapped, 12, 15, 29?

ahhh thank you!!

12 - How many WIP’s do you have in your docs for next year?

i have... five wips in my docs right now! four i've been working on recently, and three of them that i'm more actively working on.

15 - What WIP are you taking into next year with you?

probably just the three in progress ones - overtime, scientific approach, and lost and founf, found and lost. i might come back to the other two wips if i get more inspiration to continue them, but we'll see! (they're both very chill and cute rivalshipping fics, probably one oneshot and one possible au series, so i might still get back around to poking at them again, but it depends on how many brainworms i get for those)

29 - Favorite line/passage you wrote this year?

ooohh this is a hard one, i wrote a LOT.

honestly, i think one of my favorite bits might be a section from a chapter draft that actually just never made the cut for overtime? which is a shame, because i did do some pretty good and fun writing in there imo 👀 i might have to reuse some of it as a oneshot... hmmm.

anyway, it's more than just one passage, but fuck it, my city now

Yugi moved like he belonged on the dance floor. Kaiba was captivated, watching him through the lights and the crowd, moving like a fluid, writhing mass. Even with his smaller stature, Kaiba was sure he could have picked him out anywhere. Dressed much differently than he did at the office, this was more familiar; the wider choker was more pronounced, and the darker, more provocative clothes were a stark contrast to the cleaner daytime look with the shirts and slacks and vests. Tight pants clung to his thighs and legs like they might have been tailor made for him - their leather-like look seemed to have some stretch, but the texture looked to be rougher than latex. Despite himself, Kaiba wanted nothing more than to run his hands over it, to feel it for himself. He’d have been lying if he’d said he’d only come there on a whim. As had become the regular routine, he’d kept half an eye on Yugi’s movements, more so than usual now that they were in more direct proximity again - he’d assumed Yugi would simply return to his apartment for the night after their work day ended and stay there, but instead he’d dipped back outside only an hour later, and Kaiba had been too intrigued to let the matter rest. There was a pattern to this, he was pretty sure. Yugi didn’t go out to the club district on his good days, and as often as not, he didn’t go home alone. The nightclub was… really not Kaiba’s scene, but he was well aware it was Yugi’s. This was hardly the first time the surveillance had picked him up in this district of the city, not by a long shot, though this was the first time he’d actually taken the time to come have a look for himself, and it was fascinating. Yugi looked to be a couple of drinks into the night alright, but it didn’t hamper his dancing; if anything, he seemed to relax more between each glass, losing himself in the rhythm and the neon lights obscuring much of the goings-on around them. Kaiba couldn’t stand to just watch for much longer. He walked over to the bar, taking a seat at the counter by where Yugi had gone to get his previous drink, ordering one for himself and another of what Yugi had just had. Before long, Yugi was by the counter again to order another, pausing when a drink was slid in front of him before he could speak up. A moment of dead silence passed, with Yugi staring at the drink in mild confusion, before he connected the dots and looked around to see who had bought it for him, and— froze when his eyes landed on Kaiba, who was still sipping the last drops of his own beer.
