Fic 11
Title: For Your Eyes Only
Pairing: Thomas/Yuma, IV/Yuma
Tags: Established relationship, Light Teasing, Very Sweet
Summary: Most people choose to keep their uglier sides out of sight, but a rare few choose to hide away the most beautiful parts of themselves instead. One of Yuma’s favourite things in the whole universe, was the few moments he was able to see for himself just how pretty his boyfriend was.

Title: Overwhelming
Pairing: Kakeru/Yuma

Fic 14
Title: Needy Fish
Pairing: Shark/Yuma
Tags: Crossdressing, Lack of Confidence, Identity Woes, Character Development, Yuma helps by being himself
Summary: Shark is known to be a rude loner…and no one loathes that fact more than Shark himself. Especially since most of that attitude is born out of his fear of looking uncool to others.
He wishes he could just let go, stop caring about what others think, and do what he wants, with whoever he wants. That he could just scream on the top of his lungs if anyone dared have an issue with it.
You know, like Rio does.
“Then why don’t you just be her? You’re twins.” and though those words weren’t meant in the way Shark took them, once the idea seeps into his mind, it never leaves.
He’s going to hang out with Yuma, even if Yuma doesn’t know it’s him. Common sense be darned.
Fic 15
Title: Simple Question
Pairing: Thomas/Yuma, IV/Yuma
Tags: Name Reveal, First Crush, Fluff
Summary: Thomas’ sacred teatime is interrupted by the (annoying) best friend of his little brother. Usually, Thomas would have no issue pushing the other off, but the reason Yuma is there actually makes his heart beat a little... which is stupid, given that it was just a simple question: what is your name?
The fact anyone cared to ask, meant more than he would ever admit.
Fic 16
Title: My Quirky Alien Partner
Pairing: Astral/Yuma
Tags: Comedy, Alien Biology, Alien Naivete, First Kiss, Poor Yuma
Summary: With another portal made, Astral now visits Yuma as often as he can. Unfortunately, for Yuma, Astral now has a physical form on Earth… and let’s just say alien partners were way easier to be around when they couldn’t leave a mess everywhere, or naively insult anyone who came across them, or when he could only eat when they were fused.
Yuma adores his alien partner with all he has, but even he has limits.
Even with all of that, Astral still manages to find a way to catch Yuma off guard. Much to Yuma’s chagrin.

And when he meets a literal angel on Earth on the tournament he joined on a whim, he forgets what side he was even supposed to be on in the first place.
Nothing can be more important than love, after all!
A spoof of the Zexal Carnival game, explaining how Alit was able to join the WDC in the first place. Then expanding on his route, until Alit fixes everything with his loveable idiot tendencies and doesn't even realize it.
