100 Yu-Gi-Oh Prompts by lucidscreamer
Fandom: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling, The Real Ghostbusters, Transformers Generation One, Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters (Anime & Manga)
22 Jan 2021
Summary
A series of mostly unrelated YGO fic written using a 100 prompt table from LJ. (Some of these have spawned their own series and are linked.) In the case of multichapter fics, I may use more than one prompt for that story, so the final story count may not add up to 100.
There will be AUs, canon-compliant, head-canon, humor, angst, Puzzleshipping (because it's me), gen, fluff, etc. But there will also be some things you might not expect to see in my stories, because I want to use this to explore different takes on characters and canon, including characters I don't usually focus on (like Seto and Joey).

Epilogue: YGO Post-Canon Series by lucidscreamer
Fandom: Yu-Gi-Oh, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters (Anime & Manga)
16 Dec 2020
Summary
A collection of ficlets and drabbles taking place after the last televised episode of the anime series. Departs from canon with "...Whom the King Loves" by exploring a romantic relationship between Yami and Yugi. This story also explains why Yami has his own body separate from Yugi, and why the Pharaoh did not go on to the afterlife after the final duel.
Every story in this series, even the ones categorized as "gen", presumes that Yami and Yugi are a couple (Puzzleshipping). Stories are posted in the order written rather than chronologically.
My sillier post-canon stories are collected under a separate series title (Epilogue: Crackfic Division).

Ichigo’s been ordered to go undercover at a magic school to bodyguard a kid named Harry Potter, and this would be fine, except that he’s about as good at bodyguarding as he is at magic. And he considers it a good day, magic-wise, if he hasn’t set anything on fire.

Summary
The world keeps pushing him, demanding, because what he did wasn't enough. Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist, but that wasn't enough, wasn't ever enough.
Tony Stark was tired. But he had a planet to protect, even if everyone laughed at him whenever the prospect of alien invasions was brought up. He could count on one hand how many people he could trust, which was disheartening but then, what else was new?
Or,
In which Tony does not, in fact, intend to take over the world.
...unfortunately, everyone else missed that particular memo.
[gradual divergence from canon, starting at the end of Iron Man 3. In which it's Tony's self-awareness, rather than his support system, that becomes a cryptid sometime during Phase II.]
