my love is sick, it’s taken me whole (i’m simply a host to a haunting) by SheIsHoldingACat for crushedmary

Summary
Tender like a bruise, tender like a wound. Tender like a soft, soft kiss to the side of his temple, a moth landing on the back of his hand and fluttering staring wings. His spirit has nothing to touch, so he suffices for his own, and for his pretty compass, gently stroking the tines in between his fingers.
~
Ryou likes to look at his reflection, among other things

Summary
Three Blue soldiers arrive at Blood Gulch Outpost Alpha. It's just a perfectly normal assignment in the middle of nowhere, right? ...Right?
Except when those soldiers are Private Church, Lavernius Tucker, and Captain Flowers: an assassin, a rebel, and the Alpha AI.
Blood Gulch doesn't seem quite as boring any longer.
-------------
Or, a pre-season 1 story about Alpha dealing with trauma and his forgotten memories of Project Freelancer, while slowly becoming friends with Tucker.

Bookmarker's Notes
"He’s so glad that he managed to put together a little meet-up for his birthday— not that he’d let any of them know the significance of the day. It’s so much sweeter to keep his cards close to his chest. It’s like GMing in a way, knowing more information than everyone else and using that information to force his friends to have a good time."

Summary
In the midst of trying to adjust to their new life in Egypt, Malik's perceptions of his sister are challenged. Of this, he finds that the greatest difficulty in living together is accepting that he and Isis share more similarities than he'd like to admit. Rishid, meanwhile, is happy they have something in common. Ishtar family shenanigans. Three-parter.

Bookmarker's Notes
Marik makes many assumptions and is generally incorrect. Ishizu doesn't really have secrets, but every day reveals a new surprise anyway. Rishid is just the bestest brother and we love him.

Summary
He's so tired.
He hasn't gotten much sleep lately, even if he hasn't been conscious for a lot of the time his body has been awake. It's been less and less careful to keep him in the dark, lately.
The metal of the pendant under his clothes is unnaturally cold against his skin. He wonders: if he were to look down, would there be five red points blooming once more? He's too tired to look.
His eyelids fall, and when he drags them open, the others are gone - to that world of memory, he can only guess, spirited away by a stranger they trust more than they trust him.
His eyelids fall, and Ryou falls, too.

The morning of the fall equinox, Bakura Ryou almost drowns in the onsen while communing with his dead sister. The afternoon of the fall equinox, Mutou Yugi slides onto Bakura Ryou’s lap and kisses him.

Bookmarker's Notes
"If asked, Ryou would have guessed that Yugi was about thirty kilograms soaking wet. He’s forced to reconsider, however, when Yugi swings a leg over Ryou’s waist and sits on him and who was it, which god did Ryou offend so grievously that they’ve seen fit to have him die by spontaneous combustion?"
It's so sweet and funny and just the right amount of angst-y, will re-read over and over and over.

Summary
There is something wrong with Domino City.
A rewrite of the Yu-Gi-Oh! DM manga. Starts out relatively close to canon, but splits off the more and more changes which come from taking late manga consistency and starting it at the beginning of the story.

“Ah yes,” Yami Bakura said, “From the ancient Kingdom of Castile.”
It was Uno.
