Pre TS Usopp was smth else
what if my Duel Monsters AU was actually a dating sim 🤔
Philosophy of knife by crushedmary: it's a tendershiping that has tornshipping later on, be mindful of the tags, it gets really dark really quick. Its the first one I could think of
The kind that involves
• character study
• canon or canon divergent
• deep / heavy/ packed with internal thinking
• appropriately paced, good grammar
• Ryou or Y! Bakura centric
• bonus if there is hinted tendershipping
It has been a very long time since I've read any heavy hitters in the YGO fandom. I spent a lot of time on ff.net back in the day, and even then, it was hard to find. I've come across very imaginative AUs, tons of smut, meet-cute, kid fic, coffeehouse AU, and EWE, and all are great, but what I really want is a darker, character driven and story driven long fanfiction.
Ps, I do not need The Last Puzzle recc'd as I'm already intensely waiting for the next update.
finally sharing these pages i did for @likeabruise-zine !! had a blast playing around with the theme if u cant tell <3
I do think the fandom has the unfortunate habit of babifying Shang Qinghua, due to both shipping and crocodile tears. I personally like the fact he’s a stone cold shark.
This guy set up an event so deadly it killed a significant number of teenagers— some from his own peak that he trained personally— without any visible trace of remorse. SQQ spent years wallowing in the guilt of throwing his little sheep into the abyss, which he knew he would survive. Meanwhile SQH did that and an unknown amount of other shit without batting an eyelid. That man would sell you out for pocket change.
No wonder Mobei Jun thinks he’s hot. Murdering someone in cold blood must be the demonic equivalent of a sexy hair flip.
Watch it on tiktok? Sounds like a good idea 😎😼
Anyways- they goobers!
leave it to zoro and nami to share this incredibly niche experience that’s rarely expanded on
Yohaji’s dead Seimei has me screaming internally at all times because he can be so many things but we’re not exactly sure what’s what yet????
Was he doomed by the narrative? Did he doom himself narratively due to his clairvoyance? Is he a divine eldritch horror? Is he a human eldritch horror that the divine wanted to get rid of? Is he all of that? Is he none of that? Was he lonely and hopeless about his own situation to the point he could only hope to vicariously live a semi-normal life through his descendant/reincarnation? Did he have no choice but to play out events so the people around him could have happier futures? Was he just always built different? Is this version of him really connected to kitsune? What exactly made him shed a tear in that one Ranmaru flashback? What is his curse doing on Douman? What really killed him?
How is he the Horror, the ghost of Christmas past, and the missed dead wife simultaneously at all times?
I need more brainrot for this guy!!!
I am so normal about Abe no Seimei, promise.
HE'S SO CUTE I'M GONNA EXPLODE
(read L⇒R) Finally sharing this 4-page comic I made for @likeabruise-zine, released back in October!
Bonus under the cut ⇊
My original idea for this comic was 6 pages long and I had to downsize to 4 due to the zine's page limitations so I'm also sharing the draft for my original 3 pages that didn't make it to the final cut 😅 I was gonna redraw them post zine but I sadly didn't have the time 🙏
