★, ☆, ♡, ♦, ☯, ♒, ☼ , ൠ for Yuma and Yusaku pls :D

Put a symbol (or several) and a character/characters in my ask box, and I’ll give you a headcanon.  Yes.  Do it.

★ - sad headcanon

Yuma: It’s sometimes hard keeping hold of all the relics from his parent’s explorations. He bonds with III over cherishing the memories each object holds, while missing the person he got them from.

Yusaku: When he found out about Revolver’s identity, he had a moment where he wanted to cut off Kusanagi in order to leave with Revolver. Season one he was so focused on revenge, on the ideal of saving his special person - I can see him losing all drive and will to keep fighting even if just for a moment. Guilt from leaving Jin would hurt him, as well as dealing with Ai, so Revolver’s rejection of their future was a relief to him.

☆ - happy headcanon

Yuma: Once he’s old enough to drive he goes on regular roadtrips with his sister and friends. They usually go camping or touring around big cities while cycling through different duel tournaments, but Akari loves being able to do her job while also spending time with her brother.

Yusaku: He likes to feed the strays on his route to visiting Kusanagi. It starts because of a throwaway comment by Ai, but it quickly becomes a habit. Scrappy gets the tinned good stuff because she always waits patiently as the other cats eat.

♡ - romantic headcanon

Yuma: Absolutely weak to any sort of forehead or cheek kiss. He gets flustered really easily, and can’t stop giggling when given an ounce of affection from anyone.

Yusaku: When he wants attention he’ll purposefully sit as physically close as possible to his partner and just stare. Won’t say anything. Just wait until they pick up the vibes he’s giving out. Too hard to talk feelings out.

♦ - quirks/hobbies headcanon

Yuma: He gets very into urban exploration. Brings a camera and everything, and even though Astral warns him about danger, he insists that he’ll just befriend any ghosts he meets. Like that’ll work :p

Yusaku: Gardening takes a huge amount of commitment, but he gets a small cactus just to give himself something to do. One becomes two, then 3 plants, then he has a little patch of potted plants in his room he’ll take care of. Ai names them all.

☯ - likes/dislikes headcanon

Yuma: Massive fan of fortune telling. Kotori takes him once and he loves hearing about how his week’s going to be, because it’s usually positive. He can’t handle the cold well, though - hard to find energy in winter blues and he’ll spend a lot of time just trying to warm his hands up.

Yusaku: He loves just tinkering with objects. In the middle of a conversation? He’ll have some device in his hand to fiddle with commands on a computer chip. Conversely he doesn’t like when his hands are empty. He needs stimulation to keep his brain switched on in conversation.

♒ - cooking/food headcanon

Yuma: Akari teaches him to cook one day so he can prepare his own duel food. Still ends up buying convenience store bentos or asking others, but its the thought that counts.

Yusaku: If not for convenience, he wouldn’t eat hot dogs as much. It’s just more efficient to have something while he’s at Cafe Nagi than stopping by a proper food joint.

☼ - appearance headcanon

Yuma: His fashion sense only gets worse with age. Or better depending on how you view it - eventually going full hawaiian shirts, three quarter shorts, you name it.

Yusaku: Post-canon Ema takes him proper clothes shopping so he has more than a hoodie and a school uniform. He sticks to muted colours but really digs asymmetrical clothing; odd socks, wearing jeans at different leg lengths, etc.

ൠ - random headcanon

Yuma: He becomes an unofficial babysitter for Haruto, and it’s how he spends most of his time with Kaito. Orbital breaks the ice initially, but over time they seem to get along well enough to talk without it fizzling out. On more than one occasion Orbital’s “slipped” and told Yuma how much Kaito appreciates it. He swears it’s not intentional - Yuma knows otherwise.

Yusaku: He spends a few nights thinking about Windy’s origin. What was he like? Who was he friends with? Would they have gotten along if they met? Jin echoes his sentiment, and when they talk about meeting up with other lost kids, they always leave a space for Windy’s origin and Spectre (who scarcely makes himself known, unsurprisingly)

[looking back on some of these, they’d make great material for future works. must remember to save some of em for later]

[pidgieee]

For the Bad Things Happen bingo: yusaku/ai for "It's all my fault" or "Doesn't realise they've been injured"? Thank you in advance if you do choose to write this :D your aiballshipweek fics were so fun to read <3

so this is one of the sweetest anons I’ve ever gotten, and thank you so much for the prompt and for reading my aiball stuff before. <3

I went for “Doesn’t realise they’ve been injured,” just because I’ve received another ask for a more angsty aiball piece. This one’s more fluffy because (they deserve a little peace) and because this ask made me super happy to see.

(also. realised after I posted that I covered stolen identity, when the fic I’d done was for childhood trauma. no biggie, I’ve got a prompt and character for stolen identity anyway fghffh)

Title: I’m pretty happy lying here with you

Ship: Aiball

Triggers: Minor descriptions of injury.

Description: Dueling was always a danger. Physical attacks were - as the name implies - physical, and impacts with the ground could end grave if not properly dealt with.

Good thing he's got Ai and Roboppy on lookout, even if Yusaku thinks it's not that big of a deal.

(Will update the bingo board tomorrow. Requests are still open!)

[pidgieee]

[Content ID: Bingo board filled with prompts for fics, taken from Bad Things Happen bingo. If you need the prompts transcribed, I can do so upon request.]

Time to give this bad boy its own post, since I’ve nearly finished a chapter of my WIP!

Hey hey - I’m participating in Bad Things Happen Bingo. How does this work? People can send me in prompts, characters or even ships related to a bingo spot and I’ll write a ficlet or oneshot on what’s sent.

i.e: Kaiba/Joey “Losing a Bet”

I’m willing to cover any ygo show and re:zero, as these are what I’m most familiar with.  I can also do OCs provided I know enough information on the character (may ask for more info in DMs)

If you have a prompt outside of the bingo card I’m still open to write for it! I can write for most genres and ships so long as I’m comfortable with the subject matter. Feel free to send an ask or message me directly if you want to talk about a fic idea. Always happy to hear from people ^^;

Prompts taken: Stolen Identity, Doesn’t realise they’ve been injured, Childhood Trauma, Anger born from worry

[pidgieee]

Ahh, I can definitely see Yuya having that "extroverted" introvert character type. A lot of his canon seems to focus on the idea that - at least in season 1 - Yuya's personality is an abstraction from his father's legacy, and I really like the idea that he needs to recharge his batteries between performances. It's hard putting on an act, especially with the weight of your family memories on your shoulders, so I can see him having anxiety and depression as a result.

Yuzu and Yuya's relationship is really sweet to see - even outside of any shipping context. They care for each other a lot, and I've always thought about writing a platonic piece about them just... hanging out. Spending the day together with Sora or something.

Always excited to see people's headcanons for arc v. There's some absolute gems people come up with.

Hey! just wanted to pop in and say your icon (an omori edit, i think?) is adorable and brings me serotonin every time I see it :D What do you think is your biggest (or at least, your fave) headcanon for yuya?

AAAA THANKS— my friend @skybluescarf made it for me! I don’t particularly hate any headcanons for Yuya. But if I had to choose one it’d be... when ppl say he has no feelings toward yuzu? And I’m not saying it in a shipping way, I don’t like when people ignore their bond all together if that makes any sense.

My biggest hc for yuya sorta kinda is kinnie stuff but: Yuya has generalized anxiety, major depressive disorder and is an introvert despite his ability to put on a show for others. Like... he just needs a break for 4 hours to recharge.

I have more including ones that aren’t about mental health and all that but uh... yeah!!

he’s a lonely, bitter boy - AO3 Fic

Fandom: Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters

Characters: Marik Ishtar, Ishizu Ishtar, Yami Bakura, Odion Ishtar

Ship: Marik/Bakura (towards the end, can be viewed platonic)

Content Warning: Canon-typical violence referenced.

Description: 

A man who had nothing will forever be a forgotten man. Trees in the forest, with no one to hear them, will collapse and regrow in accordance with wind currants battering their trunks. It was not wrong to want. Why does he feel guilty?

Something in his chest resounded with that thought. He had no reason to feel guilt over wanting what he couldn't have.

♦☾ for Astral!

Put a symbol (or several) and a character/characters in my ask box, and I’ll give you a headcanon.  Yes.  Do it.

♦ - quirks/hobbies headcanon

Astral never quite gets the hang of social interaction. Call it being from a different world, or having most of your socialisation come from Yuma alone, but he always just misses topics at hand. Kotori is talking about a recent TV drama? Even after Yuma’s explained how TV works, he’ll think it’s a real story about someone she knows.

Eventually she (or one of the zexal kids) drags him to watch a show with them, and he’s hooked. He starts tracking shows and movies like observations, and eventually he gets into creating fan theories with the other characters. These range from super astute readings into the storyline... to the protagonist being a robot.

☾ - sleep headcanon

When Yuma’s asleep he normally retreats into the key, but in early zexal I’d imagine he would try to observe as much as possible of their surroundings. He takes particular notice of any relics and the hammock Yuma sleeps in, since he’d never seen such a thing before. 

If he ever were to gain the sense of touch his first priority would to properly tuck Yuma in to bed. On at least one occasion I can see Yuma wanting to form Zexal so Astral would stop nagging him about the (seemingly) uncomfortable position he sleeps in, but he secretly just wants Astral to rest for once.

He deserves it, after all.

day three! give it up for day three! had to rush publication bc every day so far ive been publishing at exactly 11:59pm my timezone

Aiballshipping Week Day 2

yall know what time it is

Title: Rel

Fandom: VRAINS @aiballshipping

Ship: Ai/Yusaku

Aiballweek 2021

juuuuust made it in my timezone for day one! Prompt: Day one, Home

Ship: Ai/Yusaku @aiballshipping

Summary: By brick and mortar they rest, hands pressed together like paper doll chains, easy to tear apart. This was how they spent their nights; twined threads of the same silk, battered by the day and haunted by the memories evening would bring.
