IT’S YA PAL, PAL

bakurae fan first, human being second

my blog is your organizational oyster, feel free to browse and reblog from the character tags/ship tags/etc etc all you like!!!

anything else you gotta know boils down to:

I love ygo (dm and the cards)

I love my hundy gecs

I love loose leaf tea

I love board games

I love reading, writing, drawing, crafting, creating, using my hands and brains to make things, etc etc

this includes making my own stickers

this also includes cooking and baking and making food in general. and eating

and more!

if there’s anything else you need to know then ha ha. you can figure it out with me as we go along ^^

[justapalspal]

I spent most of today thinking about food and getting my leftovers tracked and things situated with regards to that (planned for when to use up, used up, etc) so I’m munching on pho from the freezer that luckily still tastes swell!

I’ll likely get back to writing fuckboy ryou chapter 5 because man I’m still thinking about him. Hopefully I’ll have a fleshed out draft ready tonight or tomorrow at some point ^^

[guttersblessing]

warmup today is an elaboration on a cunty lil seto i doodled while drinking last night

Me and a fellow writer lovingly describing our extensive lists of plot bunnies to each other:

[justapalspal]

I’m glad in a way that my appetite in recent years has gotten so extensive and curious and actively wanting when it comes to eating things. I used to be entirely a too few meals a day type pal. But now I’m making a list of meals I wanna do over the summer and it’s funny because I’m getting into the 90s counting these meals out and I’m just like bruh when I finish this list it’s not gonna be doable solely in a three month summer, is it? 😂😂

some fuckboy bakura peekin round the door chain for @justapalspal and their awesomely infuriating fic

[justapalspal]

I need to throw him through the wringer. I don’t know how to describe it. That’s the feeling I get looking at him here, so I say you’ve captured Fuckboy Bakura Ryou perfectly lmfao!!

Thank you so much, I’m so stoked to see this little moment from the latest chapter in art form like this ❤️❤️❤️

[nerdstify]

for @justapalspal who suggested heartshipping or fragileshipping-- why not both? (:

i also realsied this fulfils a couple of @bakubangspeedrun prompts, namely 95: heartshipping playing games together, and 136: ryou dueling because he's a duelist too

[justapalspal]

Gang, we’re nearly hitting some lifelong ao3 number milestones (almost 15 user subs, almost 200 comment threads) but the funniest is that we’ve hit 666 kudos already

Beast number, beast number, beast number!!

I’ve Made the Worst Bakura Ryou, Strong Language, Bakura Ryou/Everyone But Especially Bakura Ryou/Jounouchi Katsuya, POV Third Person Summary:

Just yesterday he’d been trying to fend them off and having trouble even accomplishing that. Jounouchi didn’t get it. He didn’t get Bakura doing all that smiling, or the leaning toward the crowd, or him actually holding what looked like a bento one of the other girls had been holding last time Jounouchi had looked.

And then one girl said something, and Bakura said something back that made them laugh, very much unlike Bakura’s usual nerves or disinterest, like he was—

“Flirting,” Yuugi said with some disbelief.

Oh, thank god. “I thought I was hallucinating,” Jou said.

Or, Jounouchi Katsuya uncovers that this Bakura Ryou in front of him isn’t his Bakura Ryou.

I can say, now that I’m relieved of my usamerican jury duty silence thing and can talk publically that I’ve been on a jury these last two weeks, that many things surrounding fuckboy!ryou’s conception and these 10k words I’ve written for him are just like absolutely the worst possible chaos, and maybe fit under the “ao3 authors update no matter what even when things are the absolute worst” type memes, but also a bit silly, like:

Got summoned to jury duty and put on a gnarly two week lawsuit and kept writing, in between proceedings and after at coffee shops in an attempt to decompress, the near entirety of these 10k words since that initial day I was summoned

(This was after having to delay jury duty at least two times due to scheduling conflicts with my spring semester classes)

My mom went to the hospital for sepsis in the middle of all this, on my weekend free from jury duty

Fuckboy!Ryou was my literal first creative post for pride month (worst bi/pan/whatever rep we never wanted haha <3)

And he is my 20th fanfic on ao3 for my main pseud

So like, yeah. It’s wild the life behind each author and how little we know unless the author (ie me in this case) talk about things, hahahaaaa

Happy Birthday, Yugi!! 🥳🎂🎁
