I have an AU idea, based on an idea that I have.
So, we all know that in dark side of dimensions, Kaiba made a hologram of Atem. What if, somehow, someway. His spirit was able to hack into the hologram, and use it as a kind of secondary body?
And if that were to work, what would happen when his puzzle was rediscovered and solved in the virtual world by a newer duelist who happens to use the virtual world as an escape from the real world?
Only to end up releasing a world wide virus on accident, which can only be stopped by gathering the seven millennium items in the virtual world in order for the virus to stop.
I call it:
Yu-gi-oh: pharaoh’s Virus.
Yeah yeah, kinda cringe idea. But hey, who doesn’t want to see the beloved pharaoh return to the future and have to deal with not only a world wide virus and deal with the modern age of toxic masculinity, idol worshipping, problematic politics, and searching for a way to have a body of his own to protect his new friend..? I WOULD. I’d love to see atem confront one of those toxic masculinity sigma dudes and call him out on all his bullshit! :]
But also, you can put your own character into the spin of it! It can be a story of romance, angst, adventure, or of one’s identity! (Just PLEASE make sure if you’re going to do romance, make sure it’s a legal relationship. Do your research before you do anything!)
Anyways, hope this finds the right crowds! :D
