A Place to Call Home

Rated T • Published 2023 • Complete • Word count ~20k

Atem, a lingering spirit, haunts an abandoned house that’s fallen into ruin. He’s long resigned himself to his strange, lonely existence. That is, until Yugi Mutou enters the picture.

@punmasterintraining says: I read this one back when it was updating, I was new to the fandom and it combines 2 of my favorite tropes, the ghost au and amnesia (soooo much angst potential). It's been 3 years since i've read it, but I remember it being a really sweet story. I hope you all enjoy it too <3

hi, i wanted to contribute to the library. I loved reading this fic. It's a prince and pirate romance for the ages. I didn't see it in the masterlist, sorry if it's been submitted already <3 It's called Dark seas, open seas by vivi-ntvg on AO3.

Thank you so much for the recommendation!

It is such quality mobiumshipping, which the fandom is severely lacking in. It has humor, it has tenderness, it has spiciness. The dynamics between the three boys are top-notch. AND, it is being expanded into a small series. It's amazing!

Ooh yes, I read and loved this one!!

The dynamic between the three of them is just spot on, and Yugi for all his shyness and nerves never looses the backbone that makes him the linchpin between the three of them. And the "spectating" party (whether that be Yugi or Yami), is just as active an important as the one in the drivers seat. So sweet and tender (and sexy!) all around!

Rated M • Published 2013 • Completed 2015 • Word count 185k

Yugi Moto went to stay with his cousin Mai to enjoy a stress and relationship-free summer, only to find a sexy and handsome stranger making tea in his kitchen! Not only does this man happen to be his neighbour, he insists on getting to know Yugi better. For Yugi, this man is infuriating, fiery and sexy. The relaxing summer he planned for has suddenly become a Summer of Seduction.

Anon says: This fic is one of my favourites. It may not be super plot heavy from what I remember but it has a summertime romance and a cute dog in it. Family feels and fun. To me it’s a very feel good type chaptered piece and it keeps me coming back to reread it every so often so I hope everyone else enjoys it as much as I do.

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! ❤️

link: https:// www.fanfiction. net/s/13034947/1/ Pharaonic-Internship

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!

Red String

Rated M • Published 2012 • Last updated 2015 • Word count 30k

They have finally uncovered Yami's memories, but instead of making him whole it seemed to have split him into two—and now Yuugi must deal with two personas in the Puzzle, both equally possessive and unwilling to share. What's a young man to do?

@saijspellhart says: My absolute favorite Mobiumshipping fanfic. Yami recovers his memories but upon recovering those memories it splits his soul in two. Now there is Atem in the puzzle representing his past self, and Yami in the puzzle representing his present self. And both of them have it bad for Yugi, but neither of them like to share.

It’s adorable, and lovely, and cute and funny. The characters feel so well written and fleshed out. And you can clearly see how Yami’s experiences in the present have shaped him and matured him, making him stand apart from past Atem. Poor flustered Yugi caught between a rock and two sets of teeth.
