how did yugi realize they're part fae?

"That's a story.... So when I started to develop my magic I thought it was a side effect from the puzzle and having Yami sharing my body. But after a while it just felt... Different. Not like the shadow magic. A really bad thing happened with my dreamwalking that sent me to the hospital and up until then I hadn't told anyone but Jou and the gang about it. Grandpa found out when he rushed me to the hospital and that's when I had to explain it to him. Come to find out, my grandmother had some abilities."

"Not quite like mine, she could help anyone to sleep, no plants would die in her care. Somewhere down the line a fae left my fathers court and came here and married a human which lead to her. So a diluted line. That sent us down the rabbit hole and I managed to get to the fae realm where the rest of my fae side woke up. It was not a fun ordeal, quite painful actually. Father then found me, tried to kill me, then realized I wasn't a trick and was his son and here we are. The whole reincarnated thing is a whole other can of worms." He rubbed his head, it was hurting just thinking about it all.

Fire and Ice

“Mab,” Oberon looked up as the Queen sauntered her way into his palace. He stood tall, head high before offering a customary tilt of the head in greeting. He noticed her son was at her side. His own had appeared as well but only stood at his side briefly for introduction. He knew this was difficult for the new prince, so he would not push him into the limelight. 

“I hope the food the to your liking.”

Solstice

Queen Mab in all her finery strode through Summer’s door as if she owned the place. If anything, confidence was key in any royal gathering. Even if she was weakest now, even if the drain on her strength made her feel shaky...

She had decided not to yield such a long time ago.

With more reason now since, at her side, her son and heir stood once more.

Green (Sailor Pluto)

🎨 20 colour asks

green - do you prefer to be indoors or outdoors? which is your favourite flower to smell?

“Well I don’t mind either one, but if I have to choose one? I’d pick indoors. Jasmines are my favorite, I find them very beautiful and I love the smell.”

[game-weaver]

The prince tilted his head back, smiling up at him before letting out a purr. His eyes were warm, happy, content as he nuzzled into the kisses before kissing him again. “Maybe~” He teased. “Maybe it is because I know it catches your attention, mighty hunter.” He grinned and rolled onto his back, being careful of his wings and reached up to him.

“Come lay with me?” He whispered.

The Prince grinned to himself, wings rustling like the leaves around him. He could disappear if he really wanted to. Atem might be a hunter, but the prince, he was one with the forest. A being that knew trees and the way they spoke and moved, matching their movements to his to be silent.

But he rarely wanted to be away from him, did he. Hearing that whisper made him purr softly, a happy shiver going down his spine. Continuing through the woods he found a glade, warmed by the setting son, the grass soft.

And he laid down to wait for him, chin resting in his hands, wings splayed out as he waited patiently.

Atem took his time, each step careful and slow until he weaved his way to the clearing where his love had settled. He took an extra moment to regard him, his prone form, the way his… beautiful wings fluttered at his back. It was a sight that he would cherish until it was his own time to travel to the next world. Atem stepped forward finally until Summer’s Prince was at his feet, then knelt.

He carded his fingers through summer’s hair, tilting his head slightly so he could look into his stunningly deep purple eyes.

Inside them, he found a sense of home.

“There you are my love. Why must you enjoy running from me?”

He kisses his forehead, then his temple, then the curve of his cheek before finally kissing his lips again with a faint purr.

“Is it because you know I will always follow?”

BATILLIAT, Marcel, Chair Mystique, 1897/ Illustrations : The Sensitive Plant, study, Sir Frank Dicksee

"Le jardin enchanta Marie-Alice, avec ses corbeilles de roses dont le parfum orgueilleux l'emplissait tout entier d'une ivresse vaporeuse et subtile. Chaque matin elle venait en cueillir pour les porter dans leur chambre d'amour, à profusion, sur les vieux meubles tout imprégnés du charme attendrissant des années depuis très longtemps révolues. Il y en avait de rouge-sang, clamant la gloire de leur éclat triomphal parmi la simplesse des petites feuilles vertes qui les nimbaient d'une sertissure sinopline ; d'autres, moins grosses et plus pâles, dont une roseur infiniment tendre paraît la délicieuse carnation : de jaune-clair, d'un jaune de jolie chlorose diaphane ; de toutes blanches aux pétales niveux ainsi que des lis. Les autres fleurs, aussi, les petits myosotis bleus qui bordaient les allées, les jacinthes aux couleurs stridentes, les oeillets dont la sveltesse s'enluminait encore de rosée, toutes les corolles d'or, de feu et d'émail, Marie-Alice les aimait comme elle aimait les trilles clairs des fauvettes, le ziziement des cigales, l'irradiation des jours ensoleillés, le cadre féerique dont s'emparadisait son bonheur. [...] Il trouvèrent des coins ravissants, tout exubérants de la vie renaissante, sous l'éclat vert des feuilles ensoleillées. Parmi les confuses harmonies du bois, les imprécises fleurances du vent, la déhiscence (ouverture naturelle des organes déhiscents) multicolore des calices, vaguait un érotisme immense, où ils retrempaient leurs énergies défaillantes en la lassitude des matins. Et ils devinèrent, comprirent, adorèrent la vie intense de la nature, dont la luxuriance leur sembla le symbole même de leur presque démente passion. Tour à tour charmante et tragique, la forêt surtout les impressionna: ils la virent toute pâle, fraiche, nimbée d'argent et endiamantée, ivre de l'apothéose de son réveil ; ils la virent exultant en la splendeur des midis d'azur et de feu ; ils la virent incendiée du colossal empourprement des soirs, et engendrant une telle émouvante mélancolie que tous deux frissonnaient, délicieusement attristés par la mort de l'Astre. Mais, surtout, ils l'admirèrent en la mystérieuse obscurité de la nuit, frémissante d'une vie prodigieuse parmi laquelle ils perdaient, en extase, la conscience même de leur bonheur. A l'unisson de la vie extérieure vibrèrent leurs âmes, et ils comprirent l'Ame des choses. Ils surent les mélancolies de l'eau et l'éternelle angoisse des étoiles. Et Marie-Alice se rappela la jolie fée rose entrevue naguère, aux mauvais jours, dans des rêves extasiés, ― la blonde apparition consolatrice qu'avaient idéalisée sa virginale névrose et son besoin d'aimer. C'était elle, peut-être, qui maintenant faisait éclore à leurs lèvres des baisers brûlants, elle qui les ravissait tous les deux en l'assomption des sensations extra-humaines, elle qui, parmi les hymnes virtuels et le rayonnement des couleurs inconnues, animait les éléments et les espaces, afin que toute la nature proclamât autour d'eux la magnificence glorieuse des outrancières amours."

What does Yugi love about each of his ships? 💛

You want him to sing praises to his partners?

@niveux "I don't know what I'd do without Yami. He's often stoic and chilly but he's deadly protective of me and has been with me every step of the way in finding out what I am. We keep finding each other no matter the lifetime and no matter what I think we will keep doing so."

@sennenpharaoh "Atem of course knows me inside and out. He's always been there for me and I know I can count on him for anything. He'll always be my other half."

@historias-multorum "Itachi is just.... Everything. He's sweet and gentle and he found me when I was so broken but didn't care. He still wanted to get to know me and even more than that, spend his life with me. I would give him the world if I could."

@Falconiiisms "Atem would probably kill anyone who hurt me without question and you know what? I'm not mad about that. In fact I love him so much he could probably get away with a lot of things. He's my everything and I can't express how happy I am he came back to me."

@palidinus "Shiro is everything, he's been through so much and I just want to cover him in kisses and love and give him the universe. He's so soft with me, caring, even if he's been grating my nerves lately over some things."

@flamesignite "Roy from day one has been all about keeping me safe. He's gentle and kind and I wish I could chase away the demons of his past. But no matter what I'll be here to remind him that those hands of his are precious to me."

@syndxcxte "Jou is probably one of the strongest men I know. He's been with me since the start, being my rock and I know he'd do everything to keep me safe. I trust him with my life."

@fullmxtal-elrich "Ed is just too adorable, have you seen him? I love his warm eyes and his laugh, he's just so caring and I hope I fill him with as much love and happiness as he does to me."

@darkheartedprince "Riku is the definition of an infuriating tease, bordering on asshole and I wouldn't have him any other way."

The Princes Return

Oberon paced and paced, the ceremony was drawing close and he had still not received definitive word that his son would even attend, let alone stand with him. Then there was a knock and when he turned, he felt a lump form in his throat. How like the prince he looked...

No...

He was a prince. His son, half human or not, was of his blood. And while he looked similar, he could see the differences now. This was no trick and no cruelty. It was a chance at a new start.

He held out an arm and the new prince stepped forward, practically shaking with nerves. The King placed a gentle hand on his shoulder.

"It will be just fine," he promised softly. "You will do great."

And so they stepped out together to face the crowd.

"Everyone!" He raised his hands to quiet them down. "We all know that it has been difficult, losing a young princeling. Grief...Has made it hard to move on. But over the last couple years I have come to the conclusion that now is the time to finally do that. To take steps forward, instead of always looking at the past."

He let out a sigh, pausing as his eyes glanced over the Queen of Winter and her son. "For more than just us." He finally continued. "Those years ago we lost not just one Prince but two. In different ways, but two kingdoms felt a loss. And for that, I am truly sorry." There were murmurs until he held up his hands again for quiet.

"But now is even more a time to celebrate than just merely the turn of the season. For not just one prince has returned, but we are gifted with the arrival of another." He turned to his son. "Unknown to me for all this time, I had a son. But now, now he is found. And he has come home."

Haha thanks so much!

what is your tarot card?

You got: Death

You can be a bit intense and find yourself drawn to dark and mysterious things. You’ve been through a lot and have probably seen your fair share of endings, but probably cope with it through humor. On top of that, you are surprisingly easygoing — you’re open to change, try not to let past baggage weigh you down, and seek out new experiences.

what made you choose this muse?

Meme

(( I'm going to take a deep breath here because I could ramble about my muses for ages.

So I'm going to be completely honest, both main muses of mine ( @macabre-shackles and here) were created for specific reasonings of wanting to make a twist of the original character. As well as wanting a place to write darker things when it came to my Atem. (But that's a whole other story for a different time because man Mac is a whole other can of beans)

But Yugi... At the time there were quite a few Yugi's around on tumblr and the majority had similar personalities and an innocent quality to them. Which is completely fine, Yugi at his core is light and pure. But I wanted to write a Yugi who had been through everything he went through and didn't.... Make it out perfectly okay. I don't think anyone could go through everything any of the characters go through and make it out unscathed.

So I wanted to make him broken and sarcastic and a bit hardened to the world and then I wanted to add a twist of something different and not done before. Maybe something magical and mystical. At the time, @niveux came into being as well with the fae twist and I liked it a lot. Yugi didn't originally start out as a half fae, for a bit he was a bit ambiguous as to what he might be before I settled on his fae origin. And here we are with this sassy, scarred spitfire we have today.))

[game-weaver]

Headcanon: The Courts

The fae realm is separated into nine courts with a focus on balance and order.

The seasonals, which reside and rule over the seasonal changes, their power grows and fades with the flow of the year and each court has specialty magic they tend to be strongest in. For instance magic regarding growth and nature tends to be a specialty of Spring and Summer while frost and illusionary magic is specific to Autumn and Winter.

Spring- Queen (currently unnamed) Summer/Seelie- King Oberon Autumn- Erlking Winter/Unseelie- Queen Mab

((this ended up being far too long so I’m putting the rest under read more to keep the dash tidy))

Then there are the Celestial courts with keep balance with the passage of time. These courts are older than the seasons, older than many of the already long-lived fae remember, including the current ruling Royals. Their power is much stronger as they are ancient and draw strength from what they are connected to. Day to the sun, Night to the moon, etc.

Day Night Dawn Dusk

Lastly there is the youngest of the courts. It is not held by the same need for balance and order as the others. Indeed, it manifested with the rise of humans and the fading out of many magical beings. 

Clockwork- Queen Lorelei 

Once iron and humans became a larger threat than they anticipated to the lives of the fae, the Clockwork court came into being. These fae are unnatural as they don’t have a weakness to iron like the traditional old fae do, they seem to be an amalgamation of organic and brassy contraptions. Their only duty is to protect the other courts from humans and other threats that pose a risk. 

Creatures:

Many creatures that once were abundant and have now faded to myth and legend also left the human realm and sought safety in the fae realm. Many creatures also fall under one specific court that they call home. For example, the Wulver fae which inspired a lot of werewolf myths stay in Winters kingdom and are the main guards there, while Centaurs are main border guards for Summers kingdom. Likewise, Night is a ruler of dragons, so dragons tend to stay in his kingdom, and so on and so forth. 

TLDR: There are nine fae courts, each with specifics to them and many creatures, not just fae, now call the fae realm their home. It has become a mixing pot of magical creatures all with the purpose of being protected from humans. It’s its own entire world parallel to and separated from humans so they can survive.

Headcanon: Guard

Yugi finds it hard to sit still a lot of the time, especially in spring and summer so he tends to go on runs or hikes to burn some of his energy. Often times when he does, he is accompanied by what could only be described at a glance as a very large silver dog. But upon closer inspection you would notice that it is indeed a wolf. 

Each fae court has a selection of protectors, guards, if you will. And the Unseelie/Winter court tends to have Wulvers as theirs. Wulvers are a wingless variant of fae that can shapeshift. They’re highly protective and many choose to stay in their wolfish forms, living comfortably in either form.

Ash was brought in by Yami ( @niveux ) to help keep an eye on things and protect himself and Yugi while they stay in Domino. Though at first Yugi wasn’t used to having essentially a body guard around his home or himself, Yugi has grown increasingly fond of him and loves when he joins him on his walks.

He’s also a comfort when he has to go important gatherings in the fae realm. Yugi still isn’t used to or comfortable with being treated as a royal or noble of any kind and finds the functions exhausting. It’s a comfort to reach down and touch Ash’s soft ears or even curl up with him when he needs some quiet time away from other nobles pestering him.

Though he wonders if he can convince him sometime to turn into his human form and dance with him....

[game-weaver]

Fae: ‘ it struck me that i don’t show my feelings for you enough. ’

He tilted his head before smiling gently and brushing Yami’s bangs out of his eyes. “That’s okay, I’ve come to know you over these years. I know your body language, even if you close down and get quiet, I know you still love me.” 

“You don’t have to show it all the time. I love you too, you know that?” 

[game-weaver]

Yugi followed and tucked into his arms. Partly because he was comfortable, partly because he knew he was a terrible dancer usually. He had practiced a little with Ash, after convincing the wulver to help him of course. But he blushed softly and smiled just a little.

“Does it? I’m still not sure it fits.” He admitted. “Yours though...You are quite handsome.”

“They… are a complicated court,” he began, contemplating how to explain her and her fae. “They’ve taken on the role of our protectors. They… are a hybird of sorts? Some amalgam of modern ideals like iron and old magic. So they can interact with your world. The human world.”

He listened to the music slow and offered his arm, “Dance with me?”

“How interesting…” He might have to go introduce himself to her at some point. His curiosity was through the roof with that, a combination fae? One that didn’t have the weakness to iron? But then he blinked and looked at Yami, before smiling softly and taking his arm. “I would love to.” 

Quietly he lead Yugi to the dance floor, out of the way so they could have a hopefully kind of quite few moments to themselves. Yami gently swept Yugi into his arms and smiled softly, “That crown looks nice on you.”

Mab walks in and Yugi just
