All This We Do in the Name of Ma'at by Nedjemet
Fandoms: Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters (Anime & Manga)
25 Apr 2021

Summary
When a socially anxious teenager accidentally unlocks ancient magic, anything can happen. Even saving the world or falling in love. A historically accurate, character-driven Yu-Gi-Oh reimagining that aims to trigger your nostalgia while also keeping you guessing with each new page.
Longer description:
You know how YuGiOh is a lot of card games with a little magic thrown into the mix? What if it was a lot of magic with only the occasional card game? That’s the idea we’re playing with here. No filler arcs. Minimal duels. Lots of character development, magic, and boys being cute as they save the world and maybe fall in love along the way. Literally no scene will play out as it did in the original show and we’re going to be deviating from the initial plot almost right out of the gate. The rare bits of content that do match the original narrative will be gone over as quickly as possible.
And while we're at it, let's fix the Egyptology, too.

Summary
Sacrificing a prince to the Northern witch is not the best way to warm up the land.
Or, the one where Yugi is a very creepy captor.
Beautifully illustrated by ectology! (and tunafax, and many wonderful tumblr artists!)

Summary
“Don’t torture yourself, my love,” Lilith whispers, as tears continue to fall on her face. A few land on her hair, and he taints her - he’s always been the one to taint her, even so far back in the Garden - from above. “You don’t need this.”
“I need you,” he begs, the weakness for her alone. “I want you to touch me. I want to kiss you.”
“But I can’t do that,” Lilith replies, voice barely there. “As much as I want to, I cannot. And you can’t either. We’re figments of desire, come to life and chained to reality. You are mine. You are always going to be mine. Even rendered powerless, as meager as a Sinner.”

Summary
Five years ago, the king of Ithaca made the choice to sacrifice himself for his crew. Over 500 men made it back, but Odysseus was not one of them, cursed instead to swim the seas.
At first he could remember, even if he no longer could speak - his tongue removed as part of the punishment, but one incident with the wind bag later and he was alone for far far too long.
But Ithaca will have it's king.
And more importantly; Penelope will have her husband back. No matter how long it takes.

Summary
“I have another boy at home,” the wistful king murmured, his words leaving his lips with the burdensome weight of memory. “Much older than you by now… the last I saw him, he wasn’t yet half your size. But he lives very far from here, on another isle across the sea.”
His own eyes stared back at him, unreactive to his words. His son was just an infant, but Odysseus realized that even if he were of rational age, he couldn’t possibly understand what he was saying. The child didn't know what existed beyond the idyllic, gilded shores of Ogygia. He didn't know of smiling people, and kingdoms, and war. The glittering isle had consumed the entirety of his life. Odysseus felt his grip around him tighten.
“You won't die on these shores, boy of mine. I swear it on my life.”
