apparently joeys birthday happened at some point. happy pride month king
i had to see this. y'all had to see it too.
Based off the comments of my last puppyshipping post. Has anyone considered a world where Serenity and Mokuba start hanging out and that subsequently leads to Joey and Kaiba reluctantly having to spend time together and noticing how similar they and how caring they are towards their siblings and how Kaiba's eyes soften ever so softly whenever Mokuba speaks with him and how Joey somehow always smells like caramel and....
Don't get me wrong I love the dubs coming out these days with all my heart but damn it if I don't low-key miss when they'd give random ass accents to characters
I'm not super into puppyshipping but for those who are, you think Seto and Joey ever bond over how shitty their dads are?
Like, just one day Joey mentions his dad's issues and Kaiba's just responds by mentioning something about Gozaburo in return. Or maybe it's vice versa and Joey doesn't pry since he's picked up most of the pieces after the whole Noah arc.
I'm going to expand on my previous post and go over the characters series by series starting with DM! (Just note a lot of these ideas are fluid.)
Yugi: Yugi is going to be very similar to how he was in the early manga and season 0. He goes to a normal highschool and than an after-school duel school (yushow?) In the standard dimension. He carries the box of the millennium puzzle in his backpack as he never finished it because Joey threw the last piece away. Because of this Yugi (provided he doesn't go to yushow) has no real friends and lacks a lot of confidence in himself. He'd probably play an updated Silent Magician & Swordsman Deck.
Joey: Joey is also going to have similar Characterization to the early manga and season 0. He lives in the standard dimension going to the same school as Yugi and doesn't duel. He's just generally a delinquent. (He will get better and eventually become a good friend similar to DM). He'll eventually play some sort of deck involving Red Eyes Black Dragon.
Seto Kaiba: Of all the DM characters I'm definitely including, Kaiba is going to have the most differences from his cannon versions. I have two different ideas for him. Option 1 - He doesn't get adopted (Gozoburo & Kaiba corps by extension don't exsist) and has to do his best taking care of himself and mokuba making a living by doing odd tech jobs and dueling. Here he would probably use a Blue Eyes Synchro deck. Option 2 - He got adopted by the Akaba family and went with Leo to the fusion dimension to create Duel Academy. Here he would use a Blue Eyes Fusion deck.
Bakura: I'm not sure if I'm putting Bakura in but if I do, he'd probably be pretty similar to how he was in DM but without the millennium ring and being Yugi's friend. Or he'd have the millennium ring and be one of the few people who knows what's going on, acting like the cryptid he is.
I like crime dramas, I like AUs, I like drawing action and I like loyal bodyguard characters so this really couldn't be helped 😔
Shout out to the fics that write this exact thing, you all sustain me more than you know
When fic authors describe Jonouchi Katsuya's hair as dyed.
I get it, okay?
I get that usually you can find a blond delinquent in Japanese media and assume that the hair dying is an artifact of that. But we see that he's been blond since he was a kid, he wasn't rebelliously dying his hair to look like a thug when he was eight.
AND it's thematic okay!
People can assume Jou has dyed his hair and that changes their perceptions of him--they say ah he must be a violent thug, he's performing the Violent Thug Indicators. But he's not, and if he had been dying his hair when he was in the gang I think he would have stopped sometime after becoming friends with Yugi, as a physical demonstration of how he's leaving his violent past behind him.
The blond hair is just another way to indicate what assumptions people make about him not knowing the truth behind them.
For example blond hair = thug but really he's just half American and the hair is natural.
In duelist kingdom he really wants the money and people assume it's because he's poor and wants to spend it on getting cool stuff, but actually it's because his sister needs a surgery.
People choose Jou to duel because they believe he's an idiot and they can manipulate and beat him easily, and he is dumb and easily manipulated but also constantly surpassing people's expectations.
THESE ARE ALL SO GORGEOUS OMG

Here's a yu-gi-oh dancing dragon meme inspired by that toothless dance meme! XD
Hope you enjoy, and have an AWESOME day!!
It's so cheesy.... I will adore this for years
Heres an AMV animation thing! I tried to make it punk and 90s-ish with the style and editing, so I hope it looks somewhat like that! (Also ignore how bad the lipsyncing is at the beginning!)
Hope you enjoy this video, and have an AWESOME day!!
