I drew this as a quick meme but then I thought that I want a fanfic with modern no magic shit AU. where is Atem the son of a politician who went with his father to Japan for the summer to gain experience in doing some kind of international affairs and when he does not go on business with his father he just sits sadly in his room because no one wants to mess with him and he himself does not want to walk the streets of an unfamiliar city and attract the attention of his retinue of guards. father sees that Atem is somehow a little sad and thinks about what to do about it because he does not want to just hire some unverified guide. and then someone from his entourage says that he has a friend who has a grandson who is about the same age as Atem and that «if you want I can call and arrange everything».
meanwhile, Yugi is having a very bored vacation at his grandfather's shop because it just so happens that all of his friends are either busy or away for a couple of weeks. so that he yearns and whines that he is bored of sitting here. but his grandfather stuns him with the news that his friend called him and asked Yugi to show the city to the son of an important person from Egypt who settled in domino city before the end of the month and that he said that Yugi agreed
(Yugi- DID YOU EVEN ASK ME???? how are we going to communicate ???😖💦💦💦
- well, you study English at school - that's practice for you! forward ! it's such an interesting experience! + you said yourself that you're bored here!😤)
eventually Atem and Yugi meet, somehow communicate in English, BUT all problems of the language barrier disappear when they find out that they share a common passion for games. then they end up falling in love and it's a bit difficult because they can't date whenever they want + they have limited time + they're nervous fools from different countries with still a language barrier. Somewhere around this time, Yugi's friends return and they are LITTLE surprised that Yugi managed to find the love of his life in a couple of weeks in some rich boy from FUCKING EGYPT that he is trying to secretly date. but like true friends, they are here to help.
continuation of the post about Yami Yugi. since we can only rely on yami Malik, then we can make a vague conclusion that “yami” is WOW dark energy from the subject of the millennium that is formed with strong negative emotions.
this dark energy takes the form of the person in which it was formed and tries to take the place of this person by completely suppressing and destroying the original personality. for this, dark energy uses access to the knowledge of its owner and acts already based on this - as yami malik knew that Rishid is the person who gave power to the original Malik to resist and yami malik understood that Rishid had to be killed in order to win this fight.
yami Yugi is not so vicious, but he understands that the strength of the Yugi is in his friends and the best way to get rid of them is to ruin relations with them by pressing on their weak points. (guess which character yami Yugi was inspired 🐸👁by by his quote and get a star lol)
