Tornshipping fae au where human Malik gets lost in the woods and enters the fae realm somehow. He finds a little cottage where a cat sith Ryou lives, who allows him to temporarily stay with him until a new gate opens into the mortal realm in their close vicinity. Ryou is a little cold and standoffish, but the way he carries himself and the random acts of kindness he shows Malik cause the human to eventually fall for Ryou. The fact that the cottage has a 'there was only one bed' situation definitely doesn't help Malik with his infatuation. Luckily (or unluckily depending on how you look at it) for him, Ryou rarely sleeps in the bed, much less the cabin unless Malik specifically asks him to. Ryou is also sort of charmed by the human and asks a lot of questions about the mortal realm and Malik himself as he slowly warms up to him.

Malik doesn't leave the cabin or its garden for safety reasons (eldritch fae who are definitely not as kind as Ryou), but he often wishes he could because Ryou wanders off into the foggy woods very often and despite knowing that the cat sith can take care of himself, he still wants to be there and protect him.

One day, while Ryou is out doing whatever, an eldritch fae enters Ryou's cottage and corners Malik, trapping him in a dead briar. Malik is very confused because he thought these type of fae specifically needed to be invited in, and they stayed away from Ryou's cabin by default. Fortunately, before anything bad could happen to Malik, Ryou arrives just in time and asks the fae to stop what he's doing. He explains Malik's situation to it and the fae reluctantly let's the human go. Ryou then introduces the unfamiliar creature to Malik as Bakura, his husband.

Malik is obviously shaken about his crush already being married (+the attack) and he becomes very conflicted about his feelings towards Ryou. Bakura stays for a while, and him and Ryou go out together at night, leaving Malik alone in the cottage with his thoughts. Bakura's presence becomes more prominent, and Ryou stops spending as much time as he did with Malik. While Bakura is out one time, Malik and Ryou get into a fight that ends with Ryou running off out of anger. To Malik's confusion, only a cat returns.

When Bakura returns, he explains that as a cat sith, Ryou has the option to shape-shift nine times before ultimately being stuck as a cat forever. He usually does this when he's upset, and Malik finds out that this is his fifth transformation. Bakura asks what Malik did to anger Ryou, but Malik doesn't really want to confess to Bakura since the argument was about him and Ryou's relationship. From that day on, it's Malik, Ryou the cat, and Bakura in the cabin. Bakura tells Malik that a transformation for Ryou can last up to decades depending on how upset he is, which causes the human to feel very guilty and regretful about the situation. Since Ryou doesn't talk now, Malik is forced to engage in conversation with Bakura and comes to realise that he's not as much of Ryou's evil husband as he thought so. Some stuff happens, and Malik eventually apologises to cat Ryou for what he said after him and Bakura develop a fragile friendship. Bakura might be seducing Malik for lols at this point to entertain himself and Ryou.

In the 'finale', Malik gets attacked by a changeling in his shape (Yami Malik), and after the weak creature somehow incapacitates Bakura, he's forced to find a way to defeat it in Ryou's absence. Malik gets pricked by something weird in the forest, which gives him enough power to disarm (literally) the changeling. Ryou jumps in at the final moment in his human form to save Malik from being driven mad by the fae magic in his body and stops whatever evil plan the changeling had going on in the background (possibly a summoning of a fae version of you know who).

Malik has a heartfelt conversation with the still alive changeling about purpose in life and what not, Bakura and Ryou thank him for his help in the best way possible *wink wink*, and a gate finally opens back to the mortal realm. With a heavy heart, Malik returns to his world, leaving his partners behind.

Years later, Malik still has the scar on his finger where he was pricked, and he still feels the fae magic coursing through his veins. He feels out of place in the human realm, and his presence often has a similar mentally overwhelming effect Ryou and Bakura had on him. One day, something draws him back into the same forest where he first got lost, and he finds the gate to the fae realm open again. He crosses over without a second thought and finds Ryou's old cabin with ease, still standing on the same foggy clearing as it once did with the now fully healed changeling watching over the garden where Malik left him and Ryou and Bakura inside.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Ryou learns this the hard way when he becomes the vessel for Zorc's power.

I have no words! This is where most of my fic reading energy went this week, and hot damn was it worth it. Ryou’s corruption arc is an emotional roller coaster ride, and all the canon divergence AU shenanigans are a delight (read: oh shit oh fuck oh hello) to see play through. If you haven’t read this one yet and have a strong stomach when it comes to violence, unhealthy relationships, and horror, this one is DEFINITELY for you <3 I could recommend this based on prose alone, but the intensity is also where it’s at!!

Starts out tendershipping, with eventual tornshipping planned.

[resuri-art]
