A/N: now we know who hoyo's fav is 🧍♀️
It had started as an innocent sparring session, one that was meant to be a simple exercise in control and focus. You had never imagined that it would end with a fire-breathing dragon in a state of pure confusion.
Dan Heng, standing across from you, had always been graceful, composed, and an embodiment of cool precision. His smooth, fluid movements almost made it seem like he was as much a part of the universe as he was a player within it. But today, something was different. He was having a hard time focusing—his usual calm was slipping away.
"Focus," you said, your voice gentle but firm. "It's just practice, Dan Heng. You can do this."
You watched as he closed his eyes for a moment, the deep teal of his hair falling over his eyes, his fair skin looking almost ethereal under the soft light. But when he opened them again, something in the air shifted.
His breath hitched, and before you could even blink, a great surge of energy emanated from him—red hot and fiery. A burst of fire shot from his mouth, spiraling out in a controlled yet startling arc.
You froze, staring at him in sheer shock. What in the world? He had always been connected to the element of water—his calm demeanor, his affinity for control and composure. His mastery over water, and even his past as the Imbibitor Lunae, suggested a cool, serene force.
Yet here he was, fire spewing from his mouth as if he had become the very thing he’d never been.
Dan Heng blinked, his eyes widening in disbelief. His hands immediately shot to his mouth as if he were trying to extinguish the flames that had just erupted from his throat.
“I-I didn’t mean to—” he stuttered, his voice flustered in a way you rarely heard. The fire sputtered out after a few seconds, leaving only a faint smoke in the air.
The absurdity of the situation hit you. You couldn’t help it. You burst out laughing. The image of Dan Heng, the normally poised and reserved Vidyadhara, spitting fire like an unpredictable volcano was too much to handle.
You laughed so hard your sides ached, clutching your stomach as you tried to regain some semblance of composure. “Dan Heng... you... you’re supposed to be a water dragon, not a fire dragon!”
His face turned an almost unnatural shade of red, the tips of his translucent green horns shimmering slightly in embarrassment. “I didn’t—! I don’t know what happened.”
You took a few deep breaths, trying to stifle the giggles, but the sight of him standing there, hair askew and his face practically glowing with mortification, only made it worse. The idea of the usually cold and distant Dan Heng—who, you swore, could freeze water with just a look—now flailing like a startled lizard after accidentally exhaling a fireball, was beyond hilarious.
“You really are a dragon, huh?” you teased, a mischievous smile curling at your lips. “But... a dragon that forgot which element it’s supposed to control.”
Dan Heng stood there, rubbing the back of his neck in a way that only added to the comedic effect. His usual air of mystery and composure had completely crumbled.
“I... I don’t know what happened,” he muttered again, his voice much quieter than usual.
You wiped a tear from your eye, still recovering from your laughing fit. “Maybe you’re a water noodle who’s been accidentally cooking in a fire pot.” You winked, clearly enjoying the rare moment where you had seen a side of him that was so... human.
The sight of his struggle to contain his laughter only made you laugh harder. His frustration seemed to melt away as he caught your infectious energy.
"I guess you could say... I’m a work in progress," he finally said, his lips twitching into a small but genuine smile.
You beamed back at him. "You know, even if you’re a fire-breathing dragon, I think you still make a great noodle."
The fire in his chest may have been an unexpected surprise, but it was nothing compared to the warmth that spread between you two in that moment. And while Dan Heng might not be able to explain why his fire control had failed so spectacularly, he was grateful for this rare, laughter-filled reprieve from the weight of his past.
He sighed, a little embarrassed but unable to fully hide the smile that tugged at his lips. “I suppose I have a lot to learn… about both water and fire.”
You nodded, still chuckling. “That’s alright. You can always just stick to the water noodle persona... unless you want to keep trying to roast marshmallows with your fire breath.”
Dan Heng’s lips quirked in the faintest of smirks. “Let’s stick with the water noodle, for now.”

Summary:
When Yami Sennen moved to Domino to start his life as a monster tamer, the last place he would have expected to end up was caring for 5 little Kuribohs. As they grow and change, so do the challenges and rewards from raising them. He navigates caring for the kuribohs, making new relationships, and learning a little about himself along the way too.
This is ENTIRELY based on kuriboh-mama-yami 's amazing Tumblr. They were kind enough to let me throw myself head first into the adorable chasm of their idea, and I plan to keep writing as long as they (and my brain) allow. Please let me know what you think, and swing over to their Tumblr for adorable comics featuring Yami and Yugi, with their kuriboh babies.
Chapter 8 is live, y’all! Please enjoy a beach date for the kurifam (and some friends!)
This is a pretty long chapter, so please let me know what you think!
Greetings, wayfarer! I’m Eobe, the Dragon tamer (mun) 🩵 You’ve stumbled into the realm of Dragon, who draws, writes, muses and sometimes monologues about the nature of clouds, heroes or morons with a nice cup of cocoa ☕️
This is a place for art, stories and some occasional philosophical ramble. So you can expect a mix of cozy myth, dry wit, thoughtful storytelling, and a bit dramatic flourish (because, well it’s a dragon 🐉)
🎨 II. Art and RP – A two-headed delight
This blog is mainly an art space. You’ll find sketches, scenes, and mood art pieces – often sparked by RP threads.
Art may appear in character, often something Dragon made, or meta, as part of the muse-mun blend. Sometimes it’s serious. Sometimes it’s fun chaos.
You’re welcome to react to art in-character, or even build a scene around it. Visual storytelling is encouraged!
Dragon hoards precious treasures ✨🤩 (like a broody chicken 🐔) Also reblogging other’s art, that let beat higher Dragon‘s heart ❤️🔥
✍️ III. What kind of RP happens here?
Writing style: Multipara to novella. Dragon just dragoning – but not everything needs to be epic.
Genres: Fantasy, medieval, myth, sci-fi (multidimensional portals are hard to tame – like a dragon), existential fluff, clumsy fun chaos, character-driven weirdness.
Tone: Somewhere between ancient tales, lazy cat in the sun and scattered professor. I like creating moments – whether they’re quiet, ridiculous, stone-melting or especially a little magical.
🧭 IV. Boundaries
SFW: This hoard is safe for work. Subtlety and innuendo are fine and hatchlings should use individual filters anyway to protect themselves!
Triggers: If something is off-limits for you, please tell. I respect and protect borders.
Godmodding: Kindly no. Dragons need to steer their own wings. If you have an idea to create Dragon scenes, you can always shoot an ask or IM ✨
📩 V. Interactions & feeding the lizard
Selective RP: I draw, write and reblog what inspires me, not out of elitism, but for the sake of meaningful storytelling (and time).
Askbox / IMs: Open. Ask for Dragon Wisdom or Weirdness, IC play, OOC chatter and art prompts. You can address me or Dragon directly.
Random interactions welcome, especially if they’re clever, creative, or just a little weird.
⏳ VI. Patience is a virtue (and also my default setting)
Sometimes Dragon answers swiftly and sometimes Dragon vanishes into a pile of half-finished drafts like nesting in warm laundry 😅 Delays are never personal – just part of the process. I always try to return to what matters!
🪶 VII. The Invitation
If you’re kind, curious, and a little bit chaotic, you’re most welcome here. Whether you bring a muse, a puzzle, or a pot of tea – there’s space by the fire in the cave ✨🐉🫶
Those rules are currently in the test phase 🧐 Feedback and ideas are absolutely welcome ✨
