Tumblr media
Atem is kinda shy when you both first start dating
Cut the man some slack, he hasn't dated in about 3,000-5,000 years (depending on the dub or sub)
He doesn't particularly like PDA, and doesn't see a need to announce your relationship to his friends. He thinks they should "just know."
Obviously they don't, so Tea still hits on him and you get angry about it. Atem never notices when Tea hits on him and only knows about it when you point it out
He's quick to tell his friends about your relationship then. Joey teasingly asks him to prove it, and he wastes no time kissing you on the lips despite not liking PDA
It takes him a couple months to start getting comfortable with the relationship, and slowly gets more comfortable with PDA
He'll only go so far as hand holding and putting his arm around you, but it is progress
Behind closed doors though, I'd like to think he's a little clingy. If you need to go in another room for something he won't follow, he'll just wait for you. But he'll always want to cuddle or be touching you in some way
He prefers kisses on the cheek instead of the lips
He'd take you on such cute dates. He'd get the ideas either from Yugi, Bakura or social media (Joey and Tristian aren't exactly cute, and he wouldn't ask Tea about this)
He'd take you on picnic dates, take you to local events, he'll win you prizes at Kaiba Corp and go on any rides you want to go on and end the day with a kiss on the ferris wheel.
When you cuddle, he likes being the big spoon. He'll rub your back, scratch your back, whatever you want
He loves watching Tik Tok or Instagram reels or Youtube with you on your phone while you spoon. He'll periodically give you cheek kisses
I feel like Atem would be the first one to say "I love you" and he says it after every goodbye, every goodnight, every good morning, and every hello
If you two are away from each other, he always starts the conversation with a "how are you? how was your day?" text
His first priority is you. He loves you and he wants to make sure you're okay
He's also pretty chill with anything. If you're sick and look terrible, he's still going to want to be intimate. When you ask why, he'll kiss your cheek and give you a poetic sentence about loving you at your worst. Makes you tear up
Atem is also really good at listening to you and comforting you when something is wrong. He wishes he could duel all your problems away :(

Hello, a question if you agree with you, can I lose Atem's heads by losing his pregnant wife in an accident?Please, if it seems too dark, I understand.
Tumblr media
Atem’s first reaction is one of complete denial. This can’t be happening. Not to him. Not to his wife and child. No way.
It doesn’t become real until he sees his wife’s casket being lowered into the ground and the waves of grief start to splash. The normally calm and collected Pharoah becomes a wailing, blubbering mess of tears. Not even Yugi can calm him down and bring him to his senses. In the end, Atem has to be carried back home because he’s seriously contemplating jumping into his wife’s grave so he can be buried with her.
Atem’s behavior and attitude change drastically to the point of being concerning. He never leaves his home unless he deems it necessary, he rarely smiles and laughs anymore, and not even Duel Monsters can bring him comfort. His friends check on him in regular intervals and have to resort to tossing out his alcohol so he doesn’t drink himself to death.
It isn’t until Pegasus of all people pays Atem a surprise visit and actually gives him some words of wisdom and encouragement (he’s been through the same thing after all) that he starts to feel a small glimmer of life again. He starts to go out more, he attends grief counseling, and he gets back into Duel Monsters.
Atem doesn’t even think about dating again and most likely won’t for quite some time. No other woman can replace his wife and he denounced his player days after he met her so no hookups for him either. Atem being celibate is a huge shock to everyone for obvious reasons.
He honors his late wife’s memory every year on the anniversary of her death, their wedding anniversary, and her birthday. He does it without fail and nothing will deter him from it, not even another woman. Atem’s late wife will always have a special place in his heart and he’ll never forget her nor what she’s done for him.

Hello, I am a huge fan of your Yugi x reader x Atem and the individual of each stories and headcanons. I was wondering if you can do cuddle headcanons for them both? I was wondering what a poly cuddle would be like. I happen to either be a little taller than Atem or the same height as him but I know I'm taller than Yugi.
Hello, friend! I'm sorry I have no idea how long this was sitting in my inbox, but I finally got around to it! I hope you like these <3 and thank you for the compliment ^^
Cuddle headcanons
Yugi:
His cuddles are very sweet, loves heads tucked into chests, whether it's your head on his chest or the other way around, he loves it
If it's hot out he still likes to have some kind of contact while you share a bed. Will settle for just keeping a hand on your hip or tucking it under your arm/on your side, so long as he gets to touch you in some way he's happy.
Doesn't mind if you're taller than him, if anything he likes it, makes those cuddles all the better. And don't think he won't insist on you being the little spoon half the time, doesn't matter if you're taller, he will wrap his arms around you and make you feel safe!
Atem:
King of spooning. He can't even describe why he loves it, besides that it just feels right when you do. It's like you were made for each other, the way your bodies just fit perfectly together.
Loves to cuddle while you're sitting together. Will rest his head on your shoulder, even presses some little kisses there if you're okay with that. If your hand isn't readily available to hold he'll probably place his on your knee or maybe even your inner thigh if he's feeling cheeky.
Also doesn't care if you're taller than him (actually finds it sexy), loves to sneak up on you when you're sitting on the bed so he can rest on his knees, wrapped his arms around you, and trail kisses up your back. He also insists on alternating who's the little spoon cos he loves both no matter your height <3

Letting out a yawn you stretched and rolled over, grabbing ahold of your phone as another message alert rang out. Thanks to the constant back and forth from the people in your friend group, specifically two people, you were up earlier than you would have loved on your day off. Unlocking your phone, you quickly scanned your messages and rolled your eyes, what was supposed to be a conversation about what you were all doing for the day ended up with some back and forth between Tristan and Joey, who ignored what others were saying to them. Typical as always.
Letting out a sigh, you pulled the covers back and got out of bed. You needed to freshen up for the day and no doubt you’d be done before a plan was made. After selecting your outfit and placing it to the side, you grabbed everything you needed and made your way to the bathroom. Turning on the taps for your bath. Warm began to fill the air as the mirror up from your sink started to steam over, causing your reflection to slowly distort. For the past few days, your dreams had been normal, nothing out of the ordinary and for that you were thankful. You didn’t think you’d be able to handle any more.
Shutting the water off, you stripped out of your bedclothes and slowly stepped into the bath, letting out a content sigh as the water wrapped around you. If it was one thing you loved about being at home after a long week, it was your bath. Sure, showers proved useful but sometimes all you wanted to do is relax. Slipping down a little, you rested your head against the edge of the bath and closed your eyes for a moment. Enjoying the calmness.
Soft chatter died down as a door was shut, a lone figure sighing out as they leaned against it. The day has been as long as it has been busy and the Queen was ready to relax with a bath. Pushing off the door, the young woman walked forward and glanced around, smiling softly at the various items left on the side for her. Lifting her hands, she pushed the straps of her outfit down off her shoulders and allowed the garment to fall to the floor, pooling around her feet. Stepping out, the Queen bent over and picked it up, placing it to the side as she took off some of her jewellery, the bigger items being laid gently to the side, smaller items being kept on her figure.
When she was bare, she stepped forward and slowly walked into the large pool, the cool water a welcoming feeling on her warm skin. With all the madness going on in the palace, times like this felt like a breath of fresh air, especially when she already felt out of place. Stepping further into the pool, the young Queen took a breath and held it, plunging herself underneath for a few seconds before emerging and wiping her eyes. Repeating the process a few times before she was satisfied with how much she had cooled down. Looking around, she turned her body and moved gently towards the side, sitting down on the steps that she walked down. Unaware of the eyes that watched her closely.
She didn’t know how long she’d been sitting there in her own world, tuned out of everything around her, as the feeling of the water shifting beside her made her look. Letting out a small yelp of surprise, she pushed the shoulder of the other person and smiled, lying her head on the place she pushed a few seconds earlier. “I was wondering how long it would have been before you joined me, my love”.
Looking up, she saw the visible tiredness on the male's face and sighed softly. She hated seeing him so worn out, he needed a break as much as the next person. Of course, he had things he had to attend to, being the Pharaoh meant he had duties, a lot of them but he needed time off now and then. Sitting forward, she shifted herself so she knelt behind him, hands rubbing small circles across his back as she felt him relax. “That’s it, feels so great am I right?”.
Leaning over his shoulder she looked at him and smiled, placing a small kiss on his cheek before moving back to what she was doing. The feeling of him relaxing more made her smile humming softly as she continued for a few more minutes, moving to sit by his side when she was finished. The two of them sat in comfortable silence for a moment.
The water began to move as the young Queen turned her head, tilting it as she watched what her husband was doing. In a second he was behind her, hands resting on her hips as he pulled her close to him. Looking to the side, she opened her mouth to speak before giggling at the look she saw. A look that only she got to see made itself known on his features before disappearing as he lowered his head to the nape of her neck. “You know, (e/n), I could think of better ways to relax or ways you could put those fingers of yours to use”.
The heat she felt creep across her face was similar to the hot days Ra provided. They’d been married for a good while now but he still made her blush with the words he spoke to her when they were alone. The feeling of fingers slowly trailing over her skin made her shiver, biting back a small moan when his touches moved lower. The Pharaoh would be her undoing, making her fall apart as she lost her mind to the throes of pleasure, bringing her back to earth with a crash when it was all over, and right now, this was no different. “Here of all places, ———?”.
Looking as best as she could, she saw the desire in his eyes before their positions changed, her new perch being the bare lap of her husband as she felt just how much he wanted her. His eagerness was hard to hide. Fingers moved further down her body slowly moving along her slit, threatening to slip into her core at any point, his other hand reaching up to cup her breast, pinching her nipple. The chuckle that echoed at her moans made her push herself closer to her other half. “I think we both know we’d never make it back to our chambers before I took you again today, besides~”.
The hand on her chest moved, causing a small whimper to sound before she felt her face being cupped slightly. Forced to look into amethyst-coloured eyes, the Queen tried her hardest to resist the building desire in her gut. They’d already been close to each other earlier in the day before they were both caught up in their duties. A loud moan sounded as fingers pushed past her lower lips, slipping into her throbbing core. “~I heard water makes for good pleasure. I guess we should try it”.
Opening your eyes you sat up and panted, some water splashing on the floor as you breathed heavily. Looking around you saw you were alone, your heart beating erratically as you tried to calm down. Of all the visions, dreams, whatever you wanted to call them at this point, this one felt the most real. The touches, the voices everything felt so real. Looking down at your body, you could still make out the trail the fingers took before blushing slightly, shaking your head to rid yourself of those thoughts. “I’m losing it”.
Deciding it was best to get out you pulled the plug and stepped out of the water, wrapping a towel around you. You had to get out of your bathroom, even if it was for a minute to gather yourself before you set foot back inside. Walking out to your bedroom you reached your bed and grabbed your phone, seeing a few tags in your group chat asking if the plans were okay with you. Tapping out a quick reply that said anything was fine with you, you sent another letting them know to go ahead you’d catch up.
Placing your phone down you took a moment to sigh out, trying to think of anything else other than what had just happened. As you turned around and began to walk back towards the room you had come from, the sound of your phone pinging again several times caught your attention. Part of you told you to ignore it, it was just the group chat but another part of you willed you to check it out. Listening to that half, you walked back to your bed and grabbed your phone only to see several messages from Yugi.
Tilting your head in confusion, you unlocked your phone and read through what he had sent.
Starfish:
Hey (y/n), before you go and meet the gang, can you stop by mine?
We’ll go and meet them together, plus I have something I need to ask you!
You’re the only one who can help in this situation.
Blinking a few times, you reread over the message a couple of times, seemed a bit out of the ordinary but you weren’t one to ignore a friend in need.
Butterfly:
YUGI!
Hey, of course, I shouldn’t be too long but I need to get sorted first.
May or may not have fallen back asleep D:
I’ll let you know when I’m on the way!
Locking your phone, you placed it on your table and grabbed your clothes, getting ready within a matter of minutes. Before long, you were finished and heading out. Checking your pockets once more you nodded to yourself and closed your front door, grabbing your phone and shooting off a message to let your smaller friend know you were on your way. Of course, you had to keep yourself in check and not let what had happened get to you. You’d figure it out another day. Right now it was about having fun with your friends.
The sound of a message pinging alerted the owner as round eyes looked at the content, smiling a little before locking their phone. Looking over their shoulder, they looked towards the corner where another figure could be just made out floating in the air. Standing, they grabbed their jacket and placed it on, getting ready to head downstairs and bid goodbye to their grandpa.
The floating figure took notice and vanished, only to reappear beside the smaller figure when he made it outside. Out of these visions he’d been having the one that had just happened felt the most real one yet. The poor spirit wished the world would swallow him whole when he caught his host poking at him, or where he was meant to be. After all, he was making some strange noises, noises even the smaller boy had never heard before. “Yugi, was this really necessary?”.
Looking to the side, the smaller figure smiled and nodded his head as he waited for their friend to appear. “Trust me Yami, (y/n) will be able to help, I know it!”.
As the mention of the name, another figure turned the corner and smiled waving to the lone figure standing outside the game shop. Looking up, the spirit could only blush slightly, coughing as he excused himself back into the walls of the puzzle. Much to the enjoyment of Yugi. It was time to get to the bottom of everything, even if a certain spirit was reluctant.
Walking briskly you came to a halt in front of Yugi and smiled, placing your hand on your hip and you fanned yourself from the slight heat. “Right, I’m here. You ready to go?”.
With a nod of his head, the two friends began to walk and talk about things. Enjoying the other's company, one of them completely unaware of the eyes on them as they walked. “Say Yugi, what was it you wanted to ask me earlier?”.
Oh yeah, the young male had forgotten about that. Coming to a stop, he looked at you and hesitated for a moment before deciding it was time to bite the bullet, asking you outright. “Oh yeah, so you know the spirit of the puzzle? Well, I was wondering if you would go to the Egyptian exhibit at Domino Museum with him? He’s trying to learn more about his past and I know how much you love history. Seems like a win-win if you can help him find something there”.
Looking to your side, you pondered on his words for a moment. You guessed it wouldn’t hurt to agree, it would get you out of your room and on a plus side, it was all about Ancient Egypt. A place that you seemed at ease about the more you learned, a place where you felt like you had belonged once in a past life. Letting out a small hum you nodded your head and smiled. “Sure, can’t turn down a good exhibit can I?”.
Your words seemed to delight the young male, a happy smile bright on his face as you both continued to walk to meet your friends. The spirit watched as he pondered over your words, a smirk appearing on his features. He guessed it wouldn’t hurt to give you a chance to help him, Yugi trusted you immensely with major stuff in his life and besides, he couldn’t shake the feeling that you were familiar to him in some way.

To the Next Adventure

Atem/YamiYugii X F!Reader
Darkness was everywhere you looked. It surrounded you, preventing any other movement besides the pivot of your head. It was neither cold nor warm, dry nor wet, it was simply nothing. What was this place? What happened that made you come here? Pain shot through your temples as if to answer the questions you’d asked, near blinding white hot, threatening to render you motionless altogether. Had you sustained a head injury of sorts?
“Release her at once!”
Another bolt of pain seared across your being. The voice was familiar, ripples of fine dark hued velvet dancing with white silk appearing from nowhere, as it caressed your ears. Who was its owner?, you couldn’t help but wonder as glittering gold sand gathered in a pile around your feet courtesy of a warm breeze. Darkness lingered though small stars slowly began to appear with each echo of the command until a desert spanned for as far as you could see blanketed by Nyx’s cloak of twilight. A full moon stained red threatened to bathe all things in its crimson glow if not for the single figure who stood atop of a mighty twin mouthed dragon.
“I will not repeat myself…Consider this your only and final warning!”
This time pain radiated from around your neck as what was identifiable as large fingers threatened to cutoff your airway. “Ah, but you see, she is rightfully mine by right! Need I remind you of this era’s rules, your highness, for he who lays claim to a female then the property she becomes! Matters not how nor if it was by choice! I have her in my hold currently which makes her the perfect person for the job I have in mind!”
The dragon released an earth shattering roar that would make any who heard deaf, its four eyes aglow with bloodlust as its summoner’s lip curled in a snarl. Seeing either one alone would ensure nightmares to come with its glistening fangs and claws but it was the man wearing the Eye of Horus upon his head that struck you with awe. Wild ebony hair with vermillion tips that faded to violet towards his neck’s nape, a mantle of rich purple billowing behind him that accentuated the amethyst shards within his sharp gaze as it remained locked upon the one you surmised as your captor, skin beautifully kissed by the sun’s rays that shone with subtle hints of sweat as he raised his hand outwards. “All in the land know that she you dare touch is to be by my side as queen so do not play me for a fool! Will or not, I demand you return her at once!”
Queen? You? Confusion filled your chest at his words.
Anger shone brilliantly as his gaze tinted towards pomegranate. As if your uncertainty had wounded him, there was the briefest shadow of sorrow hidden within his gaze as you met it. “You heathen, what have you done her?”
“Well, dear pharaoh, it was clear that you were not going to pull your punches even if I used those little modern century friends of yours. My patience wanes thin already and Zorc the Dark One will be resurrected soon enough once I offer up her life force!” Another hand rose to take hold of your chin, raising it roughly so that the length of your throat was exposed. “Try not to take this personally, my dear, you were simply a means to an end! Fear not though, your memories shall be returned to you once his highness speaks his name!”
Both summoner and beast bellowed towards the night sky as the moon behind them darkened. Those were your only warnings as the world you barely knew was plunged into darkness once again courtesy of a dagger which first swiped across your throat then buried itself deep within your chest until its metallic hilt met your flesh.
Breaths hissed from between your clenched teeth as you sat upright in bed, hands leaping to your throat and chest while staring wide eyed up through the skylight window to the full blood moon eclipse. Horror filled you like a spreading poison when hearing a voice call out a name which unlocked a hidden gate that was buried within your mind. Faces and places swam past you like a movie reel until they came to a screeching halt upon an altar where the shadow sourcing from a single being became two. The cellphone that was on your bedside table began to ring but you were too numb to move let alone speak. Somehow you knew where to go, where you should be, and who was calling out to you.
Sunlight threatened to blind you while stepping off the boat, feet running the second they met the blistering sand despite the shouts of local deterring you from venturing below. You’d used every string and connection you knew to get here so quickly but it would all be worth it. At the end of a seemingly never ending stone staircase, after stepping around the slumped figure of a white headed man, you found the golden upside down pyramid laying behind a tricolored teen who lay unconscious with several others. The stone tablet before you seemed to hum with power as you approached, a single golden beam appearing from the carving’s apex to brush your brow, before it fell silent; all of your memories had been restored already, meaning its task had nothing to do with you. Your hands carefully picked up the ancient artifact, caressing it gingerly and carefully as if it would shatter, raising it to press one of its sides against your cheek. A single teardrop fell from your eye to splatter across the priceless gold.
“By the ancient gods,” the voice from your dream sounded as if he were standing in front of you instead, “how have you come here?”
“Nothing upon the earth nor in the heavens could keep mine love from you, my pharaoh.” You whispered back while returning it to the young teen who stirred. Though you couldn’t physically see him, there was no mistaking the gaze which seemed to watch with suspense as you walked back towards the staircase. The urge to take the Millennium Puzzle came over you in a tidal wave yet you retrained yourself. It was not for you to possess and his task within this time was not yet complete. “Come seek me out once you have gathered your senses about you.”
And without another backwards glance, you vanished back up the staircase.
The gentle rocking of the boat would lull anyone into slumber but you instead found solace upon starboard’s bow with the wind teasing the sensitive skin of your face. Scents of water lily and driftwood filled the night’s cool air which quenched most of the day’s relentless heat. A soft smile made to raise your lips if not for the presence which manifested behind you.
They didn’t speak, nor did you, as the shadow that stretched across the wood underfoot became taller. It was dominating, radiating with power unseen in this century’s time, yet it seemed to not show its fangs as it came closer.
One step…
two steps…
four steps…
And it came to a stop just short of reaching where you stood. Yet they still did not speak nor did they attempt to touch you.
This time a smile did grace your lips as the lids of your eyes slowly closed. Masculine sandalwood now tickled your nose in place of playful yet faint scents of modern deodorant which was a bit too potent for your personal liking. “Upon the Nile’s shore, where water kisses land, so ever flows my love for you.”
“May by Ra’s grace, our bond be forged in gold.” He spoke softly, gently, as if afraid you were a vision that would disappear if he was too loud. “For not riches nor jewels shine brighter than my beloved. For so long as she remains by mine side, I shall not want for naught.”
“For what is fortune to one such as I when mine eyes behold the greatest treasure one could find?” You faced him fully with a tilt of your being, the banister meeting the small of your back as he crossed the remaining space to wrap both arms around you as if to prevent anyone from stealing you away. Guilt wracked your body as you in turn clung to him.
Along your trip you’d familiarized yourself with the path of his vessel, Yugi Mutuo from Japan, and had felt stricken with self loathe when discovering all that had occurred while your memory was lacking; Pegasus’ Shadow Game, the battle against Marik’s evil, Atlantis, and that you had been unable to assist in any of them left you feeling bitter. Even back in ancient times, the pharaoh had immense strength blessed to him by the gods, but the showcase again and again of it was almost too much for you to take when realizing that strangers had been by his side instead of you.
“My pharaoh, my beloved, my King of Games, forgive this fool of a woman for not finding her way to your side sooner.”
“I am relieved that you did not have to suffer twice. The battle’s path may have turned in an unfavorable direction if you had participated, (Y/n), thus I am relieved to find you unharmed and well.” The pads of his thumbs were quick to wipe away the tears as they spilled down your cheeks, his gaze piercing you with its gemstone hues. “Bakura’s curse was vanquished the moment he was defeated, (Y/n), so do not blame yourself upon something that was not within your control.” He appeared just as you had dreamt and more as he encouraged your eyes to open with the softest of brushes that were his fingers against your eyelids. Pale moonlight accentuated each plane of his face, revealing masculine edges yet smoothed over by the lingering plush that was from living within the modern century, though it did little to conceal the physique which was testimony of endless trainings both in combat and magical. A black racer back tee failed to conceal the lean build he sported, shoulders and upper chest showcased thanks to the fabric’s tightness, and recognizable bottoms ended where pointed boots began. Leather studded bands around his biceps and wrist did little to deter his movements, matching the choker around his throat. The expression upon his features though was foreign as he retreated a step. “Forgive my appearance, for it is not entirely my own.”
“My pharaoh, frankly I would not care if your vessel was a giant purple dinosaur.” Your hand waved dismissively when his head tilted slightly, unable to stop a giggle from sounding. Pride filled you while cupping his face between both your palms, exhaustion appearing within his gaze as you brought him closer so that your foreheads were touching. “It matters not, beloved, all that matters is that you have succeeded in saving the world from Zorc the Dark One. Now you may finally know peace as the kings before you have.”
Regret wafted off of him in waves as he removed your hands, gaze becoming hooded. “I am in need of rest, yes, yet my duty upon this matter is not yet finished.”
You listened carefully and intently as he told of one final duel he needed to partake within. This time it would be against his vessel. Understanding filled you when noting how he glanced over his shoulder towards the cabin where the boy’s companions sounded from, your fingers lightly brushing against his own when he hesitated to answer the call of a name which wasn’t his. “Go to them. It will not be long before they must accept your destiny leads somewhere they cannot follow.” Though his fingers and hand was larger than your own, it did not deter you from raising it so as to brush your lips across his knuckles before placing his palm against your chest where he could feel your heartbeat. “You have my word that I will not wander, pharaoh, have faith in my words as a promise to remain seen yet unseen while going forth from here.”
Sharp gemstone eyes closed briefly as he nodded, slowly allowing the call to cause his vessel to take retreating steps, until he disappeared from sight towards the other end of the boat.
Watching him go threatened to fill you with loneliness and neglect but it was not you who needed comforting tonight. No. He deserved to be with the friends he’d made despite you wanting not to waste another second not within his presence. You’d managed this second life’s time so far without him.
What was one more night?
Little were you aware of how many times he came to a stop outside your door as the moon traveled its way across the night sky. It was close to the four o’clock hour that the softest of sounds woke you. No explanation was needed as you crossed the borrowed room’s space to unlock the door, your hand gently collecting his own and drawing him inside before closing it once more. The shadows seemed to gather around him as he silently followed you to the bed, not stopping nor saying anything as you laid him down first. Words weren’t necessary as the heaviness within his gaze met yours. One of your hands rose to begin slowly combing through his tricolored tresses while the rest of you settled in a comfortable position beside him, silently encouraging him to relax by coaxing his head to rest against your upper chest. The invitation was accepted and he soon had nestled his face into your being with arms wrapped around your waist.
And that was all it took for the mighty Nameless Pharaoh of Egypt to finally break. His hold became tight as near scalding droplets of liquid splattered across your skin as he choked on his own words. He told of everything from how his initial emergence from the puzzle frightened the poor boy who’d completed it, how he had selfishly grown attached to the boy’s friends and became envious of the simplistic lifestyle, of how each adversary he met would nearly result in the harm of those he’d come to care for, the frustration he felt when someone was made victim because of his choices or actions, when he’d felt helpless against silver tongued opponents who nearly made him lose sight of his path. Your hold didn’t wane or falter as he spoke, uncaring of how long it took until his words ran out, internally relishing every one that passed through his lips. It had been so long since either of you had spoken freely, let alone held one another in such a way, and though he’d tried his best to keep a clam and neutral exterior, you of all people knew just how self destructive such a face could become.
He’d had no one in this time to comfort or encourage him in the way he needed. No one had been capable to ensuring his confidence within himself was put back together when he felt lacking. There had been new friendships to help him cope with his missing memories but with them came a lacking of understanding from both parties. Several times it seemed as though he was at a loss for what he’d needed in some scenarios, despite his and their best efforts to find solutions, but that’s outside of the here and now.
Silence hung in the air once he’d finished, though it was as weightless as a feather, yet it settled over the two of you in an invisible blanket which stemmed off the chill of night. Your eyes drifted closed as his breaths slowed to an even rhythm against your skin. The tension which had been radiating off his form since your skin touched was replaced by calm acceptance. His mind must have been racing with the coming dawn that it had robbed him, and his vessel, of slumber. Even if this was all you could do for him you’d gladly accept this role.
Dawn filtered through nearby window as he finally stirred, bathing him in its colorful glow as he rose to sit upright. You would wake soon, that much he could tell from how you shifted due to his warmth now missing from your embrace. Ever so gently he brushed his lips against your temple then across each of your knuckles. The beauty he saw as you teetered on the line between dreamland and consciousness threatened to take his breath away but it could not be ignored that he had one more mission to accomplish upon this plane of existence. His turned back, however, made him miss the tear which slid down your cheek as with a crack of your eye allowed your to witness him depart.
Dressing took minimal effort, your belongings next to none since you no longer would need them come tonight, and you carefully followed the small group who were his comrades below the earth to where the Millennium items were to slumber. It seemed that none noticed you slipping within the designated space that was to be his final stage and watched with awe as not one figure but two appeared from the shadow which had been one.
With breathless abandon, you watched the duel’s twists and turns earn mixed reactions from those who watched; the tomb keepers would be freed from their ancient family duty to watch over the Nameless Pharaoh’s tomb until his return and those who were teens within high school couldn’t decide who to cheer for yet they all soon began cheering for the one named Yugi. Magic cards were activated, trap cards triggered, summons of monsters completed or prevented…
Until his life points were nonexistent.
Your breath came out in a soft exhale as defeat permeated the air. It seemed as though the other spectators were struck by the turn of events, judging from how they stared wide eyed up at the pair who crossed the space to stand mere inches apart instead of feet. Even from here you felt the waves of relief coming off the pharaoh as he offered his hand towards the boy who looked ready to weep. Whispers almost too soft for you to hear filled the air, encouraging you to come forward from your hiding place, and steeled yourself as you stepped out from the column’s shadow you’d been within. A collective exclamation rose as you remained locked upon your target, the platform which had been stage for his final duel, uncaring as a few demanded you explain how you’d come to be here. Coming to a stop beside him, you offered him a smile after bowing lowly. “Beloved, you fought valiantly.”
An uproar sounded from those who watched, despite the attempts of the tomb keepers, but silence fell as his hand rose to tuck a few fallen strands of hair behind your ear. The boy beside him was watching with wide eyed surprise as your introduction was followed by explanation of Bakura’s curse upon your memories which had wiped them clean until recently.
Your hand offered its palm to him as another smile raised your lips when he took it. “Thank you for taking care of him as he traversed upon such a path.” Hesitation filled his gaze when you drew him forward, your other hand cupping the side of his face so that his gaze wouldn’t wander from yours. “Your friendship shall not be forgotten, Yugi. Allow me to take my place at his side now as he prepares to cross the final threshold.”
He didn’t object or intervene despite his friends who spoke against your actions while releasing him, the woman tomb keeper explaining the final steps which the pharaoh needed to take in order to transcend. “I can tell you mean a lot to him, (Y/n), though I probably should say that I had my suspicions someone out in the world was looking for him ever since we returned. I’m glad you found him.”
Those who had gathered as the great stone slabs parted to reveal golden light which bathed the pharaoh in its light. His modern clothes were replaced by the ancient wardrobe you’d been more familiar with down to the royal purple mantle which billowed in the soft breeze coming from beyond the gate. Ever so faintly you could see those who had passed on during the battle centuries ago waving and awaiting the two of you with welcoming smiles. Tanned fingers gently laced themselves with yours, which you gave a gentle squeeze, your gaze rose to meet his own to find them practically glittering. Somehow your own clothes had undergone a change as well to resemble those which you’d once donned. A bend of his being brought his lips to your cheek, earning a soft hum from within your chest and a blush as he whispered how beautiful you looked, before turning his attention to those who watched with tearful gazes.
Farewells were said, smiles exchanged, your fingers giving his a squeeze as the minimal window which would allow him to finally crossover began to shorten. “Atem, my beloved, it is time. If we do not go now then we may remain within limbo.” You shared a glance with him back over your shoulders, then together the two of you stepped through the gateway.
“As I embark on this next adventure, I am thankful to the gods that we have reunited.” He brought your joined fingers up to his mouth as the golden light grew, nearly blindingly so, his lips descending upon your own when you sighed blissfully. “Let us go…together.”

Valentines day is near and you couldn't wait for it to pass any sooner. You've dealt with enough of your classmates picking on you then gossiping after when you defend yourself. Rumors flew by and your reputation sunk along with them. They were no doubt started by those who's actions you didn't stand for. Before you knew it you've been known around school for being rude and chubby. You didn't pay them any mind since you knew the truth would come eventually. You'd be sure to speak the truth as well.
Valentines day is near and you couldn't wait for it to pass any sooner. You've dealt with enough of your classmates picking on you then gossiping after when you defend yourself. Rumors flew by and your reputation sunk along with them. They were no doubt started by those who's actions you didn't stand for. Before you knew it you've been known around school for being rude and chubby. You didn't pay them any mind since you knew the truth would come eventually. You'd be sure to speak the truth as well.
You can ignore their words and actions but it didn't make you feel any less saddened. Words do hurt and you're human. You felt yourself walking to your locker with an upset expression. Upon opening your locker you see two beautiful pink-white roses and a bunny plush. A smile blooms across your lovely features as you take the fluffy bunny plush into your arms.
Tumblr media
You smell the roses wondering who would give you such a wonderful surprise. You look around and don’t see anyone, so you take the bunny and the roses and walk off home. The walk didn't feel as long today since you looked forward to the next. Would the person reveal themselves to you or leave you a note next? You're not sure what to expect with Valentine's being a week away.
The next school day your day is mediocre and you don't have much to look forward to. After school you're greeted by another surprise from your secret admirer. This time your locker has a heart shaped box of chocolates. It's small but the packaging is very adorable. You place it in your bag for later. Your curiosity got the better of you and you think about who could possibly be leaving these gifts for you. It would be on your mind the entire way back home and for the rest of the week for that matter.
The rest of the week you received various gifts. From flowers to plushies until Friday. You were let out early and decided to use the restroom. On the way there you noticed someone in front of your locker. You recognized him all too well. It was Atem and he was sneaking a necklace and some red roses. He's in a couple of your classes. He's a big name on campus for holding the title as king of games in the dueling community.
“So you’re the one doing all this, huh?” You say, standing behind him.
He faces you with a confident smile. His red eyes hold admiration and affection for you. You notice in his hands he not only holds a bunny necklace but a Tiffany's bunny charm bracelet as well.
Tumblr media
"I think you're very beautiful and I desired to make you feel special on Valentines week at school." He gives you the bunny necklace and charm bracelet.
"Thank you.." You're somewhat speechless since you're so used to not being liked at school.
"I would like to take you on a small picnic. If you'd like."
His red eyes are glowing the same color as his cheeks at this point. He looks so cute and his handsome smile makes your heart swell. You smile, clearly flattered but you frown. It will be windy and rain soon. You also have a lot of homework.
"I'm sorry Atem but the weather wouldn't be suitable for a picnic and I have a lot of homework. Maybe we could go on a date some other time?" You respond hopefully.
You're given a kind nod from him. He wasn't disappointed in the least. Almost as if he knew what your answer would be. He kisses your hand before bidding you a good day.
You made it home before it became too windy. You're thankful to be home since it was dark and cloudy out. In your room you noticed someone seated at your balcony. It was Atem with a picnic set up for the both of you. Red roses and a big blanket perfect for a picnic. He had a basket with food, you're sure he spent quite a bit of time preparing at home. He would be thankful to Anzu and Shizuka for teaching him.
"How did you do all this so quickly? It's so beautiful. It's perfect." You look around noticing some red heart shaped balloons as well.
Atem looked incredibly amused as he answered your questions. He mentioned his friends giving him a ride and being good wingmen. You chuckle taking a seat beside him. He places his hand over your own. Going over your Japanese you remember some words that can be best used in this moment.
"Itoshi teru." (I love you) You boldly said with a sweet smile. You were hoping for a flustered response but he quickly replied in Japanese as well.
"Usagi mo daisukidesu." (I love you too, bunny)
His smile mimicked your own. You two went on to enjoy the lovely little at home date. You both ended up cuddling and watching the sun set over the city. His arm was affectionately wrapped around your cutely chubby frame. It was the best Valentines you could ever ask for.

Still coping through/move past JJK and BNHA for a while.
That and watching the anime all over but in JP makes me miss the English dub cause of the voice cast. They're just that good to me, especially for Yami and Kaiba ... for yaoi reasons yes that's why.
Also I don't see this poly idea much on here anyway so ... yeah.

Tumblr media
❥ Pharaoh Atem
Normally, it was custom for the Pharaoh and his spouse to sleep in separate bedrooms. This allowed them both down time after being in the public eye all day. As much as you loved your husband, you needed this time away, even if it was to just rest.
After your servants helped you undress and get ready for bed, you were left alone with your thoughts. Although, you were so exhausted you just wanted to sleep. You'd be up and at 'em again in the morning.
You hadn't even realized you fell asleep until a loud boom woke you, practically shaking your room. Sitting up immediately, your heart beginning to thump rapidly in your chest, you opened your mouth to yell for anyone who was still awake.
"Guards! Guards!"
Almost immediately, a couple of the many palace guards entered the room, all three being armed. "Your majesty, are you alright? Are you hurt?"
"I'm-" You were interrupted by another loud boom. You screamed and shut your eyes. "Fetch my husband! Please!"
"Right away, your majesty!" The three left the room to get their king from his room.
Soon, Atem strode in swiftly, and the sight before him broke his heart. His spouse, curled up in a tight ball on their bed, scared out of their mind. He quickly approached them, and gathered his (Y/n) into his arms. "There, there...I'm here, my love. What's gotten you so afraid?"
Clinging onto him almost immediately, you answered, "The storm...I wasn't expecting it..."
"Oh, my love..." Atem gently moved a strand of hair out of your face. "It is only a storm, it will pass."
"No, Atem...I have always been afraid of them. Since I was a child." You shook your head, moving away slightly to look at him.
"Is there any way I can help you with this fear?" He asks, voice soft and kind, as always, and his hand gently rubbing your arm. "I can try to cover your ears, but I'm afraid my hands do nothing compared to the might of Set."
Atem adds a small giggle to the end of his last remark, showing you that he was kidding. It makes you giggle too. "Oh, Atem...how I love you so."
Another boom flows through the sky outside, making you jump and scream, scaring Atem for a moment. He tightens his hold to try and calm you. "My (Y/n), it's okay. As long as I am here, I will protect you. Set will not harm us."
"How can you say for sure?" Your voice shook with fear. "Set is a fearsome God, Atem...have you forgotten all of his stories?"
"Set would not harm the royal family, he protected my father during his reign, and his father before him, and his father, and so on." Atem then gave his spouse a smile. "We are safe. But, if you still feel scared, I can stay with you throughout the night."
You nod. "I...would like that very much."
Atem nods, then moves your head rest out of the way so you both lay on the bed, your face in his chest. "Is this okay?"
You nod again, then yelp and jump closer when another boom rings in the room. Atem thought for a moment. "There is one story that comes to mind about Set. You recall how Anubis killed him, yes?"
You nod. Atem carries on.
"Well, after going into the afterlife, Set had begun to do good things. My father once told me a story about how Set travels with Ra on his nightly trip to the underworld, and Set helps him battle the fearsome Apophis."
You focus in on what your husband is saying. The warmth of his arms around you and his body being pressed to yours, the softness of his voice as he tells a story passed down through generations, and suddenly you find yourself falling asleep once more.
"...and now, when people hear thunder, they are reminded that Ra is engaging in an epic battle, with Set by his side." Atem finishes not too long after, waiting for a response. When he doesn't get one, he looks down to see you've finally fallen back asleep, and the thunder seems to have gotten quieter. Set was moving away, possibly sensing the Pharaoh's spouses discomfort.
Sighing softly to himself, Atem placed a kiss on your forehead and taking in the peaceful look on your face, before finally falling asleep himself. Screw the rules, he's the Pharaoh.

Tumblr media
❥ Seto Kaiba
It was after hours at KaibaCorp, and Seto was still at his desk like usual. You, having finished work three hours ago, stopped by to try to coax him back to the house so that he could get some sleep. Of course, he didn't budge. Like usual. Knowing you were going to be sitting here for hours, you opted to order some dinner for the two of you.
"What about Mokuba? Where is he?" You asked Seto before ordering the food.
"He's with Yugi, he wanted to attend one of his game nights." Seto spoke without moving his eyes away from the screen.
After getting said food, you had noticed dark clouds rolling across the sky, with flashes of light in between the angry clouds. Clenching your jaw as your anxiety spikes, you quickly move back to your car and sped (as legally as you could) back to KaibaCorp.
When you got back to Seto's office with the food, he hadn't noticed your anxiety yet, or the rapidly approaching thunderstorm. You plopped the food down and curled up on the couch. Reaching over, you took out your food and begin to numbly eat it while scrolling through your phone, tensing as you start to prepare for the first sound of thunder.
Soon the storm begins, first with a flash of lightning, and then a loud boom soon after. You jump, dropping your fork. That gets Seto to look up as it makes a muffled thump against the ground. "...you okay?"
"Yeah, yeah, I'm fine." You nod, going to pick up the fork from under the table. Another flash and boom sounded, making you jump and hit your head on the table.
Reeling back, you grimaced and held your head, and Seto moved over to you. "Are you sure?"
“I…” You sighed. “No. It’s the storm, I’m…scared.”
Seto didn’t do anything for a moment before sighing and pulling you back up on the couch. “I suppose I can stop for the day.”
“What? No, Seto, your work is important. Don’t-“
“Hush.” Seto tapped some more on his keyboard before shutting it, and moving over to you. “Mind if I sit here?”
He gave you a small smirk that makes your heart stutter. You nod and he sits down. Thunder sounds around you both, and you jump into Seto’s side. His heart warmed as you came to him for protection. He put a hand around you.
“It’s okay. No storm will hurt you with me here.”
You resisted the urge to cringe slightly. You loved your boyfriend, but sometimes he can say the weirdest things. “Thanks, hon…”
Seto’s grip tightened, then he leaned over to grab his food, and then grabbed your fork from the ground. “You can share my fork.”
“Thank you.”
Seto ate with one hand, his other hand around you. You watched him eat for a moment before he wordlessly offered a bite to you. You took the bite, then looked to the windows as rain began to pour down.
“It’s okay, we’re inside. Nothing can harm us.” Seto reassured.
“I know, just…” You sigh. “I’m sorry, I know this is probably childish…”
“Is that why you never told me about this before?" Seto asks, taking another bite of his food.
"...kind of." You then jump as lightning flashes and thunder rolls loudly in the sky. "Although, I guess you would've found out one way or another..."
Seto nods, setting the fork down. "Well, I don't think it's childish. People have fears, always have and always will. It isn't something childish or new."
You nod, sinking into his side a little, jumping and yelping a little when thunder sounded again. Seto leaned back into the couch and moved you into his lap, one hand on your head as he cradled it against his chest. His other hand rested on your thigh.
"Is there anything I could do to help?" Seto asks, his hand that's on your thigh begins to massage it, and the hand on your head gently scratches your scalp.
You begin to relax, but tense up again as you see lightning light up the room again. Seto's repeated movements are accompanied by a kiss on the forehead. You focus back on him.
"This is fine...thank you." You move your face slightly, so that it's in his chest.
Seto hums, and you can feel the reverb. It feels nice. It feels warm, and safe. You still tense and jump at thunder and lightning, but Seto's hands help you settle down enough. He occasionally plants kisses on your forehead or cheek, and makes small talk to try and distract you. Before you know it, the storm clears and the thunder begins to sound distant, the lightning becoming less frequent.
"Seems the storm is going away. Should we get ready to go home?" Seto asks, looking out of the many big windows, then back to you.
"In a minute." You mumble, snuggling into Seto's chest. "Right now I'm enjoying myself."
Seto cracks a smile. "Was this your plan?"
"No, but I'll take the outcome." You smile, making Seto let out a small chuckle before tightening his hold on you.

Moonlit Sands
Reupload because I didn’t realize how Tumblr works. I’m terribly sorry to those who enjoyed the fic and it was suddenly nuked from their likes
I haven’t wrote or posted a fanfic in ages. I’m also not all too familiar with Tumblr in terms of posting fanfiction, so please bare with me (;´∀`) D-does anyone still read YGO fanfics...? This takes place shortly after Atem’s father takes him to the ancient tomb to pray for forgiveness for creating the Millennium Items. This is a work of fiction. If you get scrapes or bruises, please don’t wrap yourself in leaves - Sincerely, a hospital staff.
Tumblr media
‘Please, spare my son. Do not punish him for the misdeeds of his father. Please do not have my son face any calamities.’
A part of me couldn’t help but recall the memories of my father as I lay motionless on the Nile’s riverbank. The vast, starry sky above me stretched far and beyond. Overwhelmed by the recent events that unravelled in the ancient tomb, allured by the twilight, I snuck out of the palace to find a moment of solace. Even though the full moon was luminous, the nature of the night was that all was covered with a veil of shade. A slip on uneven ground and, before I knew it—
“Goodness, that was quite the tumble.”
I jolted up at the hushed and humored voice cutting me from my thoughts. But in my rush, a twinge instantly ran up and down my arms and legs. Grimacing, a grunt escaped me as I realized and sat with my scrapes and bruises.
“The scenery down here is beautiful, but I don’t think it’s worth rushing recklessly for.” A thick and well-worn cape hooded over your entire silhouette. I kept my guard as you stepped closer, but a light feeling of relief eased my nerves as I noticed that you didn’t seem any older than I was. Stopping in your stride, leaving a gap of distance between us, you settled down in front of me. Perhaps you had sensed my anxiety, but the space you left between us was just enough to make your intentions known without encroaching on my personal space. “I may not look like it, but I hope to one day become a doctor-scribe.”
Raising a hand, you closed your eyes and started to recite an incantation, casting a spell over my fresh wounds. I was in awe by your choice of action. Even though my injuries were superficial, you felt it was still worth a conjuration.
When the chant came to an end, you broke the silence with an apologetic tone, “Though I said I hope to become a doctor-scribe, I’m still a student in training.” Reaching into the woven bag concealed beneath your mantle, you pulled out some materials before asking for my permission to physically patch what was left of my scratches.
The spell and the dedication in making sure what was left of the accident was well mended, both sentiments gave me a great deal of comfort I couldn’t quite express in words.
‘Remember, everyone falls once in a while. That’s what makes us stronger.’ As a gentle zephyr brushed past me, it resurfaced the buried memories of a time long gone. The blow of the calm breeze carried along with it the echoes of when my father still consoled and encouraged me.
Yes… It is important to stand when I fall, but it gave me great comfort that I didn’t have to rise alone.
“And there we go!” Patting the wrappings, your cheer had taken me out of my solemn thoughts.
“Thank you for helping me.” Never the best in casual conversations, I was careful to not let an awkward silence settle. Quietly and hesitantly, I found something to say, “... You have an incredible affinity with magic and healing.”
A gentle chuckle sounded from you, “No, not exactly. Rather than purely relying on my innate abilities, I call to the gods and draw my knowledge of the lands so that they may aid me.” As you turned your head, I followed your gaze up to the full and brilliant moon, “Khonsu— that is, the moon, when invoked, protects travellers and has a connection with healing. And these agapanthuses— lily of the Nile as they call it, when used correctly, their leaves have anti-inflammatory properties and can act as bandages.”
With your detailed explanation, I understood the depths of your dedication to your studies. It was your passion and your pride. Having witnessed and heard your proficiency in your duty reinvigorated me in working on mine.
“The flower is also said to be a symbol of–” Stopping yourself mid-sentence, it was as if you caught yourself from saying something you shouldn’t. Nonchalantly, you waved it off, “Ahh… Nevermind it. I shouldn’t be teasing you.”
It would have been a lie to say I wasn’t curious, but you didn’t seem to hold any ill will so I paid it no mind. Instead, I took in the touch of earth and flora, the scent of the night air, the steady flow of the Nile, and the moon that floated far above. This was the exact sensation I was looking for— what had led me away from the palace. It led me here so I could have this minute of respite.
Just as the moment started to settle, you turned to address me once more, “It’s getting late. You should get going.”
“Uh… huh?”
At my puzzlement, you gave a soft giggle. “Not many folks around these parts can wear linen as lightweight or as well kept as yours.”
Whenever I slipped away from the palace, I ascertained that I presented myself in a way as to not stand out, but you easily caught on. I still had much and more to learn.
Pulling away the cloth that draped over your person, you fixed it over my shoulders and styled it in place. Without the curtain over your form, it was far easier to make out your features. And with your appearance accented by the ethereal moonlight, I could only stare dumbfoundedly.
“There we go. Hopefully, this should help so you won’t catch any malicious eyes on your way back.”
“W–wait.” I stammered momentarily to gather my thoughts, “Please, may I know your name?”
Giving a quick pause, you glanced away for a moment as you made your decision before shaking your head in refusal. “I’m sorry,” you started silently, “I don’t think I should just yet.”
Having just met me and deduced my social standing in that short time, your caution wasn’t unfounded. As much as I dreamed of seeing a peaceful world where status didn’t matter— where everyone could live freely, as it currently stands, I was still the royal prince— that I'd one day become the intermediary for the gods and the people. There were far more repercussions for you than there would ever be for me.
“But…”
A small seed of hope sprouted within me as you interjected with the indication of another possibility.
“If you ever decide to return the cloak, I’ll be here to greet you.” A tender expression painted your face, “Though, try not to take the same path down as you did tonight. Otherwise, you’ll miss the beautiful sights the other roads have to offer.”
“Yes. Thank you.” Without realizing it, I found myself smiling back, “I’ll keep that in mind.”

Always And Forever(Atem/Yami Yugi x Female Reader)
Tumblr media
All but a blur of oranges and yellows covered the sky, and anything else it touched. The small buildings in the town glowed brightly from the setting sun. Not much had to be said at the glorious sight, the attention purely focused on it. It was almost too blindly to stare at, but who could resist such a sight?
“So, you are here.” A familiar voice surprisingly grabs my attention.
Reluctantly looking away, a wide smile spreads on my face upon the new arrival. Atem stood at the entrance of my room, holding the same expression as I did. 
“Atem! What a nice surprise.” I say playfully.
The man himself chuckles at my joking manner. “Must you be so impolite? You know not to call me that so casually.” Despite the stern voice, he still held his smile. His feet moved, reaching by my side on the balcony.
I giggle. “Is that so? From what I gathered, since we’re childhood friends, I can call you that whenever I please.” I shoved his shoulder with my own.
A laugh disrupts the stern posture he had. I missed that laugh. The laugh I used to get when I told a joke to him. But that was when we were children. Soon, he had to be taken from me to be raised as a king. And now that he is one, he is merely too busy to talk to me like when we were children. 
But, at times like these, we manage to find the time to act like ourselves. A time with nothing more than laughs and smiles. Sadly, these times don’t seem to last long.
After his free moment, he soon calms down. “I suppose you’re right. I can’t control you, after all.” Warmth spreads on my cheek as he caresses it, his lips placing a small kiss on my forehead. “I wish you a good night, (Y/N).” He turns to leave.
“Wh-what? But you just got here! Can’t you stay a bit longer?” I frown, gripping the railing tightly from my rising emotions.
Atem stops, glancing back. He seemed shocked at my expression. “(Y/N)? Why are you upset? We’ll be seeing each other tomorrow.” He clarifies.
I look away in thought. “That may be so, but It won’t be like right now.” I look him in the eyes once more. “Atem, don’t you miss this? Like when we were kids! We laughed and played! But now...now you’re always so busy to do this with me...” I didn’t realize I walked up to him, practically holding onto his clothes with pleading eyes. 
The Pharoah didn’t reply right away. He took his time to study me, his magenta eyes roaming my face. His hand pushes a lock of my hair behind my ear, warmth caressing my cheeks once more.
“Then marry me, (Y/N).” He says softly.
I stare at him with widened eyes. “What?” Is all I could really say. Where did this come from? A proposal out of nowhere.
He chuckles lightly at my response. “If we marry, we can be ourselves once more. (Y/N), you have been with me through thick and thin. What more could I ask for than to have the woman I love be by my side for the rest of my life?”
I hold his hand that rests against my cheek. A smile gracing my lips. “Atem...” I wanted to cry at his confession. “I had no idea you felt that way... I don’t plan on leaving your side, ever.” 
With those final words, our heads rest against each other. My arms wrap around his neck in a tight hold, making sure he doesn’t go away anytime soon. His hands hold my waist in the same gesture. Our eyes close as we hold onto one another, relishing in this moment.

Howdy y’all! I have been meaning to post here for a while, but I have kept putting it off because of personal reasons(jk I actually just ate shit on rebar and my knee hasn’t been working right since and I just got surgery on that knee a few months ago but whatever)(actually not whatever, actually ouch), so I’ll come on here now! I would love to write one shots, full length stories, head cannons, and just about anything in between for the following fandoms, and I’ll outline my favorite characters to write for from each. If there’s anything you want that isn’t on this list, just shoot me a message, and I am more than willing to try writing for other fandoms and such.
FNAF
Bungou Stray Dogs
Demon Slayer
MHA
Black Butler
Attack on Titan
Yu-Gi-Oh - really just the original, with Joey Wheeler and such
No fandom, no matter how specific, unless I deem it out of my comfort zone(near to nothing is really) I will take a crack at writing it. I’m going to just post whatever the fuck I find in the cursed area of my private account on google docs for the meantime, but requests will be open for pretty much the entirety of my time on here, which I’m hoping will be pretty much the rest of my writing life, so a very long time. Thank you so much for taking the time out of your busy day to read this shitty note from me, and please leave a request, or ask to be friends, or whatever is on your mind! Thanks again!

Spirit’s Moon
“You sure it’s okay for him to experience Halloween?” You asked nervously while glancing around at the other passerby who were dressed in various costumes from old school Dracula to new age super heroes. The costume you’d decided on, a bit cringe since it was a mix between an old gypsy costume that had been in the attic and a genie that your friend had passed down to you, was already earning you a bit more attention than you liked but it seemed to all be in good fun since no one had pressured or bothered you too much. Of course your parents put you on candy duty tonight but at least that means you’re free in the next hour. Leaning against the porch pillar, you crossed your arms protectively over your chest when a few younger youths gawked at your appearance before scurrying away thanks to your warning glare, then turned your attention back to the wild haired teen. “I mean, he might think that a gate to the shadow realm opened or something.”
Yugi looked up at you with those gentle eyes of his full of innocence while adjusting one of the many outfit pieces he wore. Halloween was one of the best times he could showcase his cosplay attire but today it looked as though he went a more simplistic route: a fancy headdress, sigils drawn on his bare arms with black marker or liner that reached up the left side of his face, patchy robes, and high reaching sandals that nearly reached mid-calf. “Aw, c’mon, I’m sure with you he’ll be fine!”
Curiosity filled your features when he grinned and disappeared without explanation. The next few trick-or-treaters were uneventful but concern began to rise when no sign of your friend could be found as you wandered along the streets with the fading sunset burning the sky above. Honestly, what could be keeping him? He’d promised to meet up with you and he was a very punctual person. Looking back over the earlier conversation it almost sounded as though he had something planned but chose not to include you in on whatever it was. Wolf whistles and jeers made your skin crawl as a group of older high schoolers made to approach with a glint in their eyes. Not a few steps away from you did they suddenly freeze, paling underneath their horrible makeup that was supposed to make themselves look like zombies, then they were gone in the opposite direction leaving you bewildered.
“Apologies for keeping you waiting.” A wave of calm swept over you at the voice that was like deep indigo silk caressed your being, encouraging you to turn in the direction from which its source was in. The harvest moon that was behind him made his appearance all the more pronounced as it cast his figure in a golden glow while a breeze made the wild hair appear almost feral but it was the pair of blood ruby eyes that made your heart race. What had originally seemed an odd or clumsy costume on your friend suddenly seemed flawless and perfect for the ancient spirit who stood before you now. “And what have we here?”
You practically slapped your mental self for staring and offered a smile. “Forget about these rags. You’re lookin’ pretty sharp yourself. I forgot to ask Yugi what that costume is modeled after.”
“Apparently, it is in reference of a film where a high priest was mummified alive who then resurrected as the mightiest force.” He seemed to regard your attire with interest, making you glad of choosing this mashup mess than one of those over the stop “sexy” costumes that everyone else your age seemed to be gravitating to. The growing chill of the October night air vanished as he took steps towards you until coming to a stop just short of meeting your frame. Those sharp eyes of his that could destroy any game or puzzle that crossed his path refused to waver from your own as that final step was taken which was closely followed by the heated palm of his hand cupping your chin. Sigils that had looked to be shakily drawn earlier now looked sharp, the strange headdress that had looked gaudy now seemed regal, partially tattered robes now seemed better fitting to reveal a generous amount of his upper chest that you’d never seen before but found tantalizingly lean muscles that teased your gaze. That confident smirk you’d seen countless times during when he faced against adversaries appears as his head dipped slightly so that your face was mere centimeters from his own. “The night is young, Y/n, shall we partake in a few of the festivities on this Halloween? Yugi mentioned of a small gathering of your classmates happening close by tonight to mention.”
The hoods of your eyes fell until they were half lidded. Matching the anticipation lingering in the air your hand rose to lightly trace a fingertip along the sigils within your reach, inwardly relishing when feeling his breath catch. “Large crowds aren’t really my thing. How about somewhere so that it’s just the two of us?” It was your turn to become breathless when his hand that had been on your chin fluidly swiped your wandering one and brought it to his lips as a glint entered his gaze.
