Won Top 4 at locals for the Age of Overlord Sneak Peek (this made me so happy I have to share it everywhere.)
Also, another person really liked the anime (specifically 5Ds) so now we're writing with one another and I don't think I've done anything harder than trying to act normal and allistic about Yugioh. Someone at Locals also said they liked how 'excited' I was about it, and I know it probably wasn't even meant in a mean way but I still felt a bit bad cause I don't even know how to be normal!!!!!

I WANTED TO SEND YOU AN ASK BUT I FORGOT
Okay for the character ask meme, Yugi!
I LEGIT SQUEALED WHEN I SAW YUGI'S NAME!
Okay!
Favourite thing about them
What is there not to love about this boy?! He's just so soft and sweet! Sometimes when I write him I get worried that he's getting ooc, but then I watch a clip of him talking to Yami and I'm like "oh my god it's canon you can't make this sweetness up!"
I think my absolute favourite thing about him is his strength. Like, this kid was already having a hard time before he ended up in duel monsters and dark magic related traumatic events. He was constantly bullied and literally had no friends except from Tea, and even then they weren't close. And he's such a gentle kid too. But he survived it all. He kept going. Even though he has a sweet and gentle nature, he isn't as fragile as he seems and was able to carry on.
Least favourite thing about them
He and Yami separating. I refuse to acknowledge that happened, ok?
Favourite line
I can't remember any of them :( except for when he was saying that he was sure he could trust Yami Yugi in episode 13, "I don't know what it all means but I'm pretty sure we can trust him, whoever he is".
Also him telling Joey it was his decision to sacrifice himself to save him during that duel during battle city.
BrOTP
Him and Yami/Atem! They're just so sweet with each other, and it's really wholesome to watch them just get along, and protect each other! I just fully see them as brothers, and they're just so damn sweet! I also like to imagine Yugi and Kaiba having a sort of brotherly relationship, with Yugi reminding Kaiba of Mokuba 24/7 because Yugi is a)small b)got them big ol' eyes and c) Yugi can be very sweet to him. Also let's not forget Yugi and Joey! They are the definition of best friends ok?
OTP
I don't really have one. Him and Tea are kinda cute but I'm not big on shipping.
NOTP
Yugi x Yami x Atem. Just NO. Yami and Atem are the same person what the heck are they doing in one ship? That's my absolute NOtp.
Random Headcanon
Yugi knows every single classic Disney song off by heart. He watched every single classic Disney movie countless times, and when he's sad he'll rewatch his favourites. His absolute favourite is The Lion King.
Unpopular opinion
I'm glad the dub censored Yugi's mother out. I've seen people bashing the dub for it, but I think it actually was a good decision. She only appeared in a single scene, and honestly her appearing in that one scene makes little scene considering she is fully absent for everything else. If you didn't see that one scene you'd assume Yugi lived with just his grandpa, which makes more sense as said grandpa is genuinely involved in Yugi's life while his mother just isn't. So the dub making out that Yugi lives with his grandpa only makes more sense than the sub showing Yugi lives with his grandpa and a mother who only shows up once.
Song I associate with them
I don't really have one X)
Favourite picture of them

Hi there! I’m here for the character thing with Atem! :)
- Sexuality Headcanon:
I like to view him as either pansexual or panromantic demisexual.
- Gender Headcanon:
A cis man, but gnc as hell.
- A ship I have with said character:
Prideshipping! It's a little more complicated on Atem's side, because he's someone who feels like he's always carrying the weight of the world, he would probably feel guilty about even thinking he can have a romance. I generally view it as him beating himself up for tarnishing a rivalship with romantic feelings and leaving Seto alone, but ultimately accepts Seto's desire to help him shoulder all of his burdens. Yugi kept him company and made him feel needed, but Seto opened his eyes to the fact that he is not alone and that he doesn't live to please, but to find his own happiness. Yugi taught Atem how to be kind, but Seto taught him how to be selfish. Atem is probably worried that Seto will grow bored of him once he starts winning, but no, he won't.
Save the best for last.
Scandalshipping. It has something to it that screams eternal love, it's the atmosphere and scenario that Egyptian climate sets, it's the magic and mystery that a lost culture holds. The idea of a young Set who enters the palace expecting to serve a spoiled prince in order to fulfill his ambitions only to be captivated by Atem's kindness, intelligence and infinitely lonely glances moves me to tears. Two people who are deeply loyal to and in love with eachother who end up having to part and sacrifice their happiness in order to save everyone else's. I like to think the two ships are interconnected. I like to think Seto and Set share the same soul and undying love and loyalty to Atem. Atem's soul was sealed and Set lost faith in magic and its worth, but never, never stopped believing that he'd get his pharaoh back. Eventually, he did.
- A BROTP I have with said character:
Not a very elaborate complex, but he would bond deeply with the Ishtars, specifically Malik. They would bond over the shared pains of having to fulfill a destiny you didn't choose for yourself and wish you could avoid. Also. They are both into high fashion, they read magazines together, make their own creations and help eachother dress up. Just Malik and Atem helping eachother put on their makeup. Also, Malik teaches him how to use tech, because we all know he's a sucker for technology.
- A NOTP I have with said character:
I am very sorry to say that I don't like Atem with Yugi. I do love a lot of the fanart made for the ship, though. Again, it's just not my cup of tea, I don't hate it or anything like that.
- A random headcanon:
He's actually very playful. He forces himself to be serious because circumstances often require that of him, but he is the kind of guy who likes pranks and sometimes takes them a little too far, without any malice, really.
Dueling is more Yugi's passion than it is his. Much like Seto, Atem just enjoys a good, challenging game. He starts to collect games to reclaim his lost time. The whole gang gets together to try out this week's random game. Munchkin is lowkey a favourite of his.
He's surprisingly awkward around people, when he's not in his element he gets distracted really easily and just lets others do the talking for him. Yugi has had to ask for no pickles more times than either of them would like to admit.
- General Opinion over said character:
Atem is complicated. My relationship with him is complicated. He is... Too good. Don't get me wrong, I love him, but I could never relate to protagonists that much, since they tend to be the charismatic type who makes the morally correct choices.
I'm scared of actually talking about Atem, because I know I might idealise him as a tragic hero, which I... Don't like? But also kind of do. Again, it's complicated. He's a very fascinating character, but sadly that's what comes from reading between the lines, not from his actual character writing.
Atem is, to me, the reminder that one should never rely on others too much, not because they might not be able to handle pressure, but because nobody deserves to suffer under the crushing weight of high expectations. He's described as strong and he is, but he shouldn't have to bear that burden to demonstrate it.

I was tagged by @ryuunoyuki, thank you! I’ve never done this before so... here we go!
List Your Top 5 Favorite Anime Characters, Then Tag 10 People! 
1.) Yugi Muto (Yu-Gi-Oh!)
Tumblr media
I really like Yugi’s character because he’s shy but brave at the same time and just has such a great heart. His looks are rather edgy and I like the combination with his wholesome (even if sometimes perverted) character. I was really happy to see more of him in Dsod, even if it was more of a Kaiba movie (I’m not complaining)
2.) Saitama (One Punch Man)
Tumblr media
Looks like I like main characters lol. The reason why I like Saitama so much is that he seems to be so emotionless most of the time but then suddendly gets really emotional about missing a sale or something trivial like that. I really like One’s characters in general (even though I still didnt get to watch or read Mob Psycho which is a shame) and I think this is how you make an OP character still fun and give them room for development.
3.) Pharaoh Atem (Yu-Gi-Oh!)
Tumblr media
I actually like the way Atem was like in season 0 a lot; it pretty much changed my whole view about Yu-Gi-Oh when I watched the Toei Anime. I liked how eerie he was in some episodes and his voice actress did such a great job. In the Duel Monsters (and Capsule Monsters) Anime I especially liked his dorky moments and just the idea behind this character; Yu-Gi-Oh! had more potential than just selling a card game in my opinion, but this is what we have fanfictions for I suppose. I also really liked his voice in the Konami Anime (I’m not talking about the English dub nor the Japanese but the one I grew up with)
4.) Mumen Rider (One Punch Man)
Tumblr media
The reason why I like Mumen Rider is that he’s basically just a normal dude but still tries his best to protect people and make a change. He may just be a C-Class hero, but he’s still great in my opinion! Even though he has no super powers or special gear, only his bike, this doesnt stop him from being a hero because that’s just what he is like; he has the heart of a hero. He never hesitates to step between a monster and its victims, he even tried to take on Deep Sea King (well that didnt go too well did it?). I really enjoy every second of his screentime - even if he usually ends up in hospital... poor guy!
5.) Speed-o’-Sound Sonic (One Punch Man)
Tumblr media
One Punch Man again because it didnt say Top 5 Characters from different anime :P
What I really liked about Sonic was his introduction. It was just so dumb and I loved it. All of his interactions with Saitama just made me laugh so hard because that’s my type of silly humour. I like his determination and his skill set - and the colour scheme too lol.
I wish I had more variety in this list but I didnt really have time to watch anime lately. So here you have a list of 5 characters from my two favourite anime!
I don’t really have 10 people to tag so uh... the usual: @brydig and @innohcence and of course everyone who’d like to do this little tag game!

In the White Light - Prideshipping fanfic Chapter 21
Also on AO3.
This will most likely be the darkest chapter in the entire fic, complete with lots of crying and cussing. Fair warning, Rex and Bandit King Bakura are going to suffer a ton in this chapter. This is the last chapter with significant Shrimpshipping. I promise the Prideshipping will get more significant from here on out!
For me, the characters' suffering is exacerbated by the horrible PMS cramps and bloating I had while writing this chapter. I also often get the flu when I forget to brush my teeth for a while and I think I feel one coming on (I just brushed my teeth this afternoon). Not helped, of course, by my intense work schedule. T_T Yet strangely, I feel more on a roll than ever!
Also, the title of this chapter is homage to one of my favourite yaoi manga, Ikoku Irokoi Romantan, by Ayano Yamane. I forgot to mention, too, why Kaiba refers to Rex as "rabbit stew." That is homage to one of my other favourite yaoi manga, Crimson Spell. Also by Ayano Yamane.
Chapter 21 – To Heaven or Hell
“So now that we know your real name, we need to head back to the palace,” Téa proposed. “Kaiba could be in trouble…”
“I… I don’t think I want to go.” Yami Yugi moped while hugging his knees. “Besides, Kaiba is more than capable of fending for himself.”
“Come on, man, you’re the king for cryin’ out loud!” Joey pulled Yami Yugi off the ground. “You’re gonna let one little lover’s quarrel make you shirk your duties?”
“But-”
“Ya’ know what, screw what Anubis said! He’s dead! And anyway, did rich- I mean, Kaiba actually say that he’d rather be president of KaibaCorp than be your wife?”
“…You know, you’re right, Joey. It may be hard, but… This isn’t the first time that we’ve quarreled, and it certainly won’t be the last. As any good partner should, I need to learn to communicate.”
“Pharaoh!” Téa smiled.
“What are you guys doing just standing there?” Yami Yugi summoned his Curse of Dragon and got on it.
“Yeah, that’s what I’m talking about!” Joey mounted his Red-Eyes Black Dragon while Tristan joined him.
Tristan waited until they were nearly at the palace to speak his mind. “Say, guys? I noticed that those shrimpy brats weren’t with us the whole time.”
“Rex and Weevil, you mean?” asked Yugi.
“I just hope they’re not causing trouble at the palace…” Téa remarked. “Knowing those two, they’re probably- Oh my! The duel’s still going on?”
“Looks like a tag duel!” Tristan exclaimed, and his expression changed when he saw the half-shifted Weevil. “Whoa, it’s Spiderman!”
“Pretty sure that’s not what Spiderman is supposed to look like, Tristan.” Joey squinted. “Is that… It can’t be! Bug boy can transform like rich boy can?”
Red shadows and flames engulfed Weevil. He expressed no pain as he grew taller, becoming a gigantic spider that Yami Yugi remembered. “It’s that spider from the vision quest!”
“Raaaaa!”
As Weevil trampled onto the battlefield, charging towards Yami Marik, Rex looked to his Duel Disk. The Dark Effigy had disappeared, replaced by an even stronger monster card. “Weevil…” His gaze turned up to the beautiful creature his boyfriend had become. “This form… is amazing…”
“Aaaaaargh!” Four spider legs pierced Yami Marik’s body, and he died almost instantly.
“How do you like them apples?” Rex smirked at his only remaining opponent, who had uncharacteristically taken on a somber expression. “What’s the matter, cat got your tongue? Or should I say, spider got your tongue?”
“I thought I recognized you two!”
“Yeah, we’re the ‘brats’ who gave you back your Millennium Ring!”
“I’m talking about the past, you fool! You do remember the pharaoh’s vision quest, do you not? Doesn’t the spider look familiar?”
“Wh-What?” The truth finally clicked for Rex. “Now that you mention it, my rabbit form looked a lot like that rabbit, too. But what are you getting at?”
“I’m saying that just like Kaiba here, the two of you also had past selves. …Back when all of the High Priests were still alive, I used to be one of the royal family’s most hated enemies. They… They killed them all… They killed everyone in my home village of Kul Elna, just to make some fancy schmancy artifacts called the Millennium Items!”
“Bakura…” In a moment of weakness, Yami Yugi couldn’t help but feel sorry for the man.
“This is what started my war against the royal family. I wanted to steal the Millennium Items so that I may become pharaoh and overthrow the old one. And by my side the whole time were my most trusted thieves, Sia and Hu. As a bandit, I couldn’t bring myself to have compassion for another, not until those two orphans came into my life. Hu was an outspoken young man who had the ability to persuade anyone. Sia… He had a gift for writing and strategizing. He was my only equal in wits – so much that I had even named him as successor.”
“What happened to them?” Even a complete dimwit like Rex could feel empathy towards the Bandit King.
“In my desperation to destroy the royal family, I found another individual who hated the royal family as much as I did. His name was Anubis. I pleaded for his aid to kill the pharaoh, and in exchange, he asked for two strong individuals…” Bandit King Bakura’s breath hitched a few times. “So I offered to him Sia and Hu. But his experiments failed, and my only two friends had died… They died for nothing!”
“…” Kaiba couldn’t stand to look at Bandit King Bakura; even he felt tears coming on.
“And now… Now, I finally get to see them again!”
“What do you mean, ‘again?’” Weevil stood down.
“You…” The Bandit King continued to cry as he looked at Weevil and drew his next card. “Forgive me for what I’m about to do, Sia… No, Earthbound God Uru!”
“I… I’m a god?”
“That will be ‘was’ in a few seconds!” Bandit King Bakura played the card he just drew. “I play my spell De-Spell to destroy Archfiend Palabyrinth! Now history repeats itself!”
“What do you-” Weevil could say no more as his body and soul quickly began to fade. “Aaaaah!”
“You…” Rex fell to his knees and cried when Weevil had died. “YOU FUCKING BASTARD! What did you do to my boyfriend?”
“I got rid of the Field Spell he needed to survive… Hu, I’m sorry.”
“My name is Rex Raptor, you motherfucker! I’ll fucking make you pay!”
“Hey, calm down, rabbit stew!” Kaiba intervened, then turned to the Bandit King. “Bakura, in case you forgot, there are three duelists present right now! And right now, you’re looking at the one who’s going to kick your ass!”
“Priest Seto… No, I will be the one to kick your ass. You and your ilk… You took everything from me… You and the pharaoh will suffer in hell!”
“Please, like I haven’t been told to go to hell before,” replied Kaiba as he drew Polymerization. “I activate the special ability of my White Stone of the Ancients in my Graveyard to add a Blue-Eyes from there to my hand! Then my Assault Wyvern destroys your Battle Fader!”
“Rr...” Bandit King Bakura didn’t have any monsters on his side of the field or his hand.
“Then I tribute my Assault Wyvern to Special Summon the other Blue-Eyes in my Graveyard… Now, Blue-Eyes! Attack the Bandit King directly!”
“This physical pain… It’s nothing compared to what my people and I have suffered because of people like you!” After Rex didn’t draw anything that he could summon, the Bandit King slammed a monster onto his Duel Disk. “I summon Ally of Justice Quarantine in attack position! Good luck trying to Special Summon your light monsters now, Priest Seto. And…”
“Ah!” Rex had few words as the Bandit King’s gaze fixed on him.
“Good luck to you, Hu, in the afterlife… Ally of Justice Quarantine, attack Hu directly!”
“N-Nooooooo!” Pain seared throughout Rex’s body. “Weevil… Baby, wait for me… I’m coming… to join you…”
Rex’s death was the final straw for Kaiba, and he didn’t hold his tears back any longer. “Do you like torturing others, you monster?”
“Me? A ‘monster?’ Speak for yourself! Aren’t you the one who ‘destroys innocent souls’ every day? Even more so now that you are only one of three people who have retained their shapeshifting abilities to the modern world? And you plan to do it some more after you officially break up with the pharaoh and return to KaibaCorp? Also, you have no right to be sad about Hu’s death when I’ve known him for so long! Or… Don’t tell me that you’ve grown attached to someone other than the pharaoh or your younger brother?”
“Shut… up…”
“Make your next move! It will be your la-”
“SHUT THE FUCK UP!” Kaiba drew the Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon. “I can’t summon my ultimate beast yet, but I can get rid of your Ally of Justice Quarantine with my Blue-Eyes White Dragon!”
“I won’t be defeated… Not by someone like you! I play the spell Jam Breeding Machine, and a Slime Token is summoned to my side of the field!”
“That’s it? A tactic that Marik tried on the pharaoh, and failed? Then I’ll set a monster and destroy that Slime Token with Blue-Eyes!”
“You’ll… never…. Aaaah! I play Pot of Greed! Then I’ll use De-Spell to get rid of Jam Breeding Machine so I can summon Brain Golem using the new Slime Token as a tribute!” Brain Golem, attack that set monster!”
“…What a dumbass you are, Bakura.” Kaiba didn’t bother to look at the card he just drew. “You just destroyed my last White Stone of the Ancients, which I banish to add the last Blue-Eyes White Dragon I need to my hand! Then I’ll activate the spell Polymerization to Fusion Summon my Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon!”
“That’s your ultimate beast?”
“No, my ultimate beast is…” Kaiba laid the Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon onto his Duel Disk. “Myself! Behold the Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon for the few seconds you have before it blasts you away! Shining Neutron Blast!”
Yami Yugi watched the final move of the duel, still floating from afar on his Curse of Dragon. “Kaiba… My love, well done.”
“So this… is how it ends…” The Bandit King looked to his arm; already, his hand had been consumed by the shadows. “I’m… finally dying.”
“Bakura…”
“What, you still have words for me, even now?” Bandit King Bakura gave a half-hearted chuckle. “What is it?”
“It’s about Anubis… I thought I’d let you know that the pharaoh defeated him himself.”
“He… He did, huh? Thank…. you…” So were Bandit King Bakura’s last words as his body and soul were no more.
Yami Yugi could hide no more, and ordered the Curse of Dragon down to Kaiba while his companions followed. “Kaiba!”
“Ph-Pharaoh…” Kaiba wasn’t prepared to face the man he loved. “And the rest of the Dweeb Patrol, too. You were watching the whole thing, weren’t you?”
“Er, most of it,” Joey answered. “We saw everything from when Weevil turned into a spider onwards.”
“Weevil… Rex…” Yugi, being the softhearted young man he was, cried. “They’re… dead, aren’t they? I know they were thorns in our sides the whole time, but… they really gave it their all in that duel! They didn’t deserve to die! Marik didn’t either!”
“Yugi…” Téa had begun to cry too, and before she could really break out in tears, she noticed Marik’s body glowing. “Hey! What’s happening to Marik?”
As soon as Téa took a single step forward, Marik not only moved, but he groaned. “Ugh…”
“Shit! That creep is still alive!”
Joey prepared to summon his Red-Eyes Black Dragon, and stopped when Marik managed to get on his feet. “What do you mean ‘creep?’ Where am I?”
“Hey, easy there!” Tristan ran over to Marik, and helped him walk to where everyone else was. “So… You’re the real Marik, right?”
“Yeah. Yeah, I am. My ‘other self’ is gone for good this time.”
“Wait, Marik. Before you continue…” Yami Yugi pointed to two beams of light descending from the sky and hitting the ground in front of them.
“Aaaaaah! More enemies!” Téa scrambled about, nearly slipping on a sand dune.
“Guess again, Téa.” Yami Yugi waited for the light to dissipate, and was certainly surprised to see Rex and Weevil again, both in half-shifted form.
“Ugh…” Rex’s vision was still blurry, but not enough to obscure his view of Weevil and his eight spider legs.
Though he was just as weak, Weevil had strength enough to give his boyfriend a hug. “Rex! Oh, my beloved… You’re alive…”
Rex returned the hug, pressing his rabbit paws into Weevil’s back. “Weeves, baby… I’m even happier that you’re alive, despite the hell we’ve been through.”
“I will go anywhere, my love, as long as it is with you. I’ll accompany you to heaven or hell.” Weevil stroked Rex’s rabbit ears. His upper spider legs trailed from there to Rex’s back, pulling him in for a kiss.
“Um… Do we really need to see this?” Tristan’s eyebrow twitched.
“Well, I kinda knew those two were together,” Joey remarked, rubbing the space underneath his nose. “After Duelist Kingdom, they were inseparable.”
“I’m more interested in how they’re still alive,” spoke Yami Yugi. “Perhaps in a Shadow Tag Duel, if a duelist dies, they will come back to life if their partner wins.”
“Speaking of Duelist Kingdom…” Weevil spoke when he had broken the kiss. “I’m sorry that I was such an embarrassment back then.”
“Don’t worry about it, man.” Yugi shook his head. “That’s in the past.”
“Was I… Did I do good today?”
“Weevil Underwood, you were damned awesome out there!” Joey bent down to ruffle Weevil’s hair. “I wish I could turn into an awesome spider… god… thingy too!”
“You see?” Yami Yugi squatted to Weevil’s eye level. “If you just believe in the heart of the cards and see the errors of your ways, you have the potential to be a great duelist.”
“And if it wasn’t for you, my evil persona would still be plaguing me,” Marik added with a bow. “I am forever in your debt.”
“…Yeah, I’ll have to agree,” Kaiba hesitated. “You’re quite the worthy rival to the pharaoh. After me, of course.”
“K-Kaiba…” Weevil could feel light tears in the corners of his eyes. “Thank you… so much… for saving Rex… Not even all the cards in the world are… worth as much as him…”
Joey waited a while for Weevil to say something else and grew concerned when he didn’t receive a response. “Weevil! No… No! Not after you just came back to us!”
Kisara and Mana knelt down to check for vital signs. After confirming that Weevil – along with Rex – was indeed alive, Kisara spoke, “Relax, Joseph. They’re alive. They’re just out cold and in need of rest.”
“Hahaha…” Joey wiped away his few tears. “I-I knew that!”
“Mana, you and Kisara will take these two to the palace’s infirmary.” Yami Yugi ordered. “The two of you will be responsible for caring for them. We’ll follow in a little bit, after I’ve told Kaiba what I’ve learned today.”
