That All-Consuming Inferno by HopelessGeek (wuzzy90)
Fandoms: Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters (Anime & Manga)
18 May 2025
Tags
Summary
Then it was teeth, tongues, and heat. Breath stolen and swallowed between them. Seto’s hand fisted in Atem’s hair, and Atem growled—a low, dangerous sound that only made Seto press harder, deeper. It wasn’t a kiss. It was a fucking collision. Bodies fighting for dominance. Mouths crashing like waves—like war.
And those legs. God. Those legs—wrapped around him with purpose. Tighter than they needed to be. Strong enough to hold him there—to keep him there. Every shift was a challenge, every subtle squeeze a command. Worship me. Break for me. Burn for me.

Tags
Summary
Atem’s lips moved to Seto’s neck, sucking over the pulse point and nibbling at the sensitive skin with a desperation that made Seto buck and pant against him. Then Atem bit down, and pain sliced into his neck as something warm dripped down his throat—
Atem is a vampire. Seto doesn't know if he's caught in his thrall or if he just lacks good judgment. Either way, he's not going to let a thing like Atem being undead come between them.

Summary
Every song will hit its last chord. Every man will draw their last breath. All things end, but it's the nature of humanity to avoid thinking about it for as long as we possibly can.

28 Days in Purgatory's Shadow by HopelessGeek (wuzzy90)
Fandoms: Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters (Anime & Manga)
19 May 2024
Tags
Summary
Twenty eight days. They needed to keep Atem's new body in a perfectly sterile environment for almost a month. Seto tried to muster some annoyance at the thought, but he couldn't quell the buzz of excitement in his chest.
In quarantine there'd be nowhere to run. He should hate the thought, but he felt strangely elated by it. He couldn't help thinking back to every step he took towards Atem where the other man took a step in the opposite direction. Some twisted part of him thrilled at Atem being unable to run away. It was hardly a decent reaction–to love his rival's confinement. What a selfish, childish impulse, like keeping a dragonfly trapped in a jar for his own amusement.
Whatever. He never claimed to be a decent person.

Tags
Summary
“I'm getting sick of being treated like an afterthought.”
“Then leave.”
Atem looked wounded–then angry when the challenge finally set in. Seto dared him to leave and Atem didn't lose games. He didn't back down from fights. Neither of them did. It's what made the relationship so electric. Neither of them would bend, neither of them would break, but the relationship would.

There's just a few problems: he's not exactly as tall as most principal dancers. He's only got a week to learn the entire part.
And he's got a huge crush on the lead swan - one Bucky Barnes, who Steve'll be dancing up close and personal with for the next week. It's enough to make his legs forget how to work.
