Admin's notes: this series of 100-word drabbles is written with such beauty and lyricism, every word is meant to hit and i just cant get enough of it. There's humour in it too, and I can't stop smiling at the way Yugi and Yami come together.
Hi! I hope you're still accepting fic recs? I got one but it's quite different, and it's Monarchshipping. Hopefully it's relevant to bring here! ❤️

I have to preface that this fic isn't for the faint of heart. It deals with dark subjects (sexual assault being quite major) and is often a fic that hits you as much as it gives you hope. Yami essentially got trapped in a contract with the undead Pharoah Atem, who was promised a wife for his sacrifice in saving Egypt. Cue Yami being the wife and uh, not great things happening to him.
What I love about this though was that this fic horrified me as much as it fascinated me. Atem's a full asshole and isn't above manipulating his new wife, but Yami's also depicted as a strong induvidual who just has the shittiest luck imaginable. You get moments of hope and despair that make you really root for Yami, but also moments where you really, really want to punch Atem in the face. Essentially, if you can stomach the bad parts, then you're at least in for a wild ride.
I am always accepting recs!! Thank you for this, monarchshipping always needs more representation!

Yugi has returned to ancient Egypt and his relationship with Atem is slowly starting to blossom. Yet there are many obstacles to overcome. Public pressure, a new threat to Egypt and their own flaws are only a few of them.

Admin's notes: This sprawling ancient egypt fic is an emotional adventure where their relationship continually deepens and evolves while the world around them spins. There are a lot of miscommunications and mis-guided actions made in the name of protecting the other, but they grow a lot over the course of the story, and the happy ending is satisfying and well-deserved!

Finding out that your best and closest and most infuriatingly attractive rival has come back to life is one thing. Finding out that he and his former vessel have eyes only for each other - well, that's quite a different matter.

Admin's notes: this is probably one of my favourite humorous "atem stays" fics, told from seto kaiba's point of view. GOD that man is so awkward but also a bro for helping with all the paperwork to make his crush exist in the modern world. meanwhile we get more and more snapshots of yugi and atem's increasing public displays of affection and the enjoyment of that is doubled by Kaiba's profound suffering. the accidental public boner is just the icing on the top of an awkward cake and I want more cake.

Piloting is all Atem has ever known. Since the day he found himself waking up as a teenager with no childhood memories, he threw himself into a life always behind the wheel of a vehicle, discovering a seemingly natural talent for it. He worked his way up onto the admiral’s flagship in space, where he fights alongside mechs- giant dragon shaped machines of great power. But he’s not the only one on the ship with a strange past, and sometimes, secrets can’t stay hidden for long.

The Alternative

Transferring to a new University was supposed to be an exciting turning point in Yugi Mutou's life. Reuniting with old friends and making new ones sounded like a huge relief for him after an exhausting summer. But meeting new people also includes the ominous student living on his dormitory floor—the infamous "Yami" Atem Sennen, whose reputation is more dark and notorious than Yugi could have ever expected. How can becoming invested with such a sadistic man completely change the course of Yugi’s life? Is there an alternative?

Yugi is distraught over the Pharaoh having to leave. Until one day, he returns home to find the ruler of ancient Egypt lounging about in his room. However, Atem does not seem to remember anything but his past life. Only his soul seems to remember the feelings they shared – how important Yugi was to him. Is it really Atem's fault for misinterpreting those feelings for desire?

Anon says: why i love this: it's a great post-canon fic with the fan-favorite 'atem comes back' trope, but with a twist. namely in that he barely remembers what happened in DM, and because of that acts as how he was in ancient egypt; a proud, prideful pharoah... who's a bit of an stubborn brat. and the author characterizes them so well! yugi is the perfect blend between canon and the angst that comes from losing your bestfriend-kinda-wished-you-were-my-boyfriend-ngl , and atem's reactions to the modern world are interesting to see on their own. it's a shame it never got finished, but i think there's enough substance to make the fic enjoyable to read.
