The Isis Knot by Lovejoy

Pairings: Jounouchi Katsuya | Joey Wheeler/Kaiba Seto
Fandom:
Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters (Anime & Manga)
open_in_newTagsJounouchi Katsuya | Joey Wheeler/Kaiba Seto, Jounouchi Katsuya | Joey Wheeler, Kaiba Seto, Kaiba Mokuba, Soul Bond, Forced Marriage, Forced Cohabitation, Unromantic
Summary:
Jounouchi opened his mouth, closed it, then opened it again. “Oh, fuck no,” he said. “You’ll do it, because you don’t have a choice,” Kaiba said icily. “And neither do I. Unfortunately.”
Bookmarker's Notes:
Full disclosure: I thought I hated these two together. This may prove an exception to the rule. The hate and lust and tension are all so impactful. I've been brought back to my enemies to enemies who fuck roots for the day. Thank fuck for the "Unromantic" tag here, it really pulled its weight.

⭐ Straying by Anonymous
|
Pairings: Manjoume Jun | Chazz Princeton/Yuuki Juudai | Jaden Yuki
Fandom:
Yu-Gi-Oh! GX
open_in_newTagsManjoume Jun | Chazz Princeton/Yuuki Juudai | Jaden Yuki, Manjoume Jun | Chazz Princeton, Yuuki Juudai | Jaden Yuki, Marufuji Shou | Syrus Truesdale, Tenjouin Asuka | Alexis Rhodes, Johan Andersen | Jesse Anderson, Edo Phoenix | Aster Phoenix, Slow Burn, Swearing, Flirting, Aged-Up Character(s), Future Fic, Angst and Hurt/Comfort, Banter, Card Games
Summary:
The next time Manjoume saw him, Judai had a head full of spirits and a desperation that almost showed through.
Bookmarker's Notes:
If every fic in the world spontaneously disappeared, this would be the one I would mourn the most. The banter is top tier and the story is grounded enough to get away with feeling like a series of dreams. This person's prose is excellent, I want to build a house out of their words and live in it.
Straying is a love letter to GX first and a realistic slow burn second. I love hearing about the author's thought process behind every single major match. There isn't anything I would change about this fic. I have to physically restrain myself from rereading all two-hundred thousand words of it every time it so much as crosses my mind.
