orangeblossomteasIn your own space, create a promo and/or rec list for someone new to a fandom. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it and include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.
This is going to be a rec list because Yu-Gi-Oh! is on basically every streaming service.

Sonzai by kaliawai512
Rating: G
Relationships: Atem & Yugi
Summary: With the Egypt trip just around the corner, all Yuugi wishes is for his other self to have a taste of normal life before he leaves. He doesn't expect to wake up in the middle of the night to find said spirit sprawled on his bedroom floor. Solid, and alive.
🔒Reconfiguration by Phoebeus
Rating: T
Relationships: Atem/Yugi
Summary: A few minutes' delay is all it takes to change the course of lives, and Atem is uncertain if he should thank the gods or curse them for this shift in his destiny. For what did it mean for his fate, this chance to know the world again in his own flesh? What good can come from lingering so solidly in a world he is meant to leave? [Puzzleshipping, Canon Branch-Off]
Notes: This is technically part of a series, but you don't have to read the other ones (Reconfiguration was written first).
Witcher by TunaFax
Rating: T
Relationships: Atem/Yugi
Summary: Sacrificing a prince to the Northern witch is not the best way to warm up the land. Or, the one where Yugi is a very creepy captor.
Notes: This one was everywhere on Tumblr when it was actively updating. It'll probably never be finished, but I love what's there.
Darkside of Dimensions Sequel Anthology by GreyRose24
Relationships: Atem & Seto mostly
First Work Summary: Breaking into another dimension wasn't something you did every day.
Notes: I usually mostly pretend DSOD doesn't exist, but I love this series a lot.
A Story That Ends In... by chaosblasts
Rating: T
Relationships: Atem/Yugi
Summary:atem decides to stay in the world of the living, unable to find peace in death just yet.
he and yuugi gradually figure out their feelings for one another, all the while atem gets to see just how wonderful life is.
Windswept byalchemicink
Rating: G
Relationships: Ishizu/Mai
Summary: If Ishizu had remembered that Mai drove a convertible, maybe she wouldn't have been so quick to agree to this trip.
Notes: Holly wrote this as a gift for me for last year's Sapphic Stocking Stuffers. I love it so much.
The Care and Keeping of Kuribohs by AceandExploring
Rating: T
Relationships: Atem/Yugi
Summary: When Yami Sennen moved to Domino to start his life as a monster tamer, the last place he would have expected to end up was caring for 5 little Kuribohs. As they grow and change, so do the challenges and rewards from raising them. He navigates caring for the kuribohs, making new relationships, and learning a little about himself along the way too.
Notes: I love this fic. There's also two more fics in the same universe.
🔒Keep the Light Shining by clydeside
Rating: M
Relationships: Atem/Yugi
Summary: Yugi's new job as a lighthouse keeper sounds simple enough... until he realizes he's not entirely alone on the remote island: a dark spirit haunts Crawford Sound.
It lingers like a shadow in the night.
It watches, and it waits.
The past keepers warned of an inescapable terror, but as the days turn into weeks, Yugi begins to think it's not the ghost he ought to fear.
Notes: I love the vibe of this one a lot. There's links to a whole bunch of art and such inspired by the fic in the note of the last chapter. (There are a whole lot of spoilers there.)
🔒The Summer of Sidewalk Love Letters by lucidscreamer
Rating: T
Relationships: Atem/Yugi
Summary: It all starts with an anonymous gift of flowers and a strange letter painted in berry ink on Yugi Mutou's sidewalk. It leads to magic and mysteries -- and Yugi discovering that things are not always what they seem. Especially when one of those things might be Yugi himself.
Alaska AU by AuroraTenchi
Relationships: Atem/Yugi
First Work Summary: After losing what life he had in Egypt, Atem finds himself in the Alaskan wilderness as a handler for a team of sled dogs and their musher Yugi Mutou. After a life of money and charm, his greatest fears are realized in a life he never imagined for himself. Yugi, on the other hand, is content with his simple life, but their combined fears could get in the way of something Atem sees from the first moment he lays eyes on his new boss. The solution to all of their problems could hang in the balance if they don't face their fears, or listen to the wisdom the dogs offer.
Amethyst Light & Ruby Shadow by smallameangel
Relationships: Atem/Yugi
An Oath Fulfilled Summary: He couldn’t think; couldn’t breathe. No. No. No no no no no. He didn’t want to lose him. Not again. Not again? Yuugi’s mind went blank as something deep within his Soul Room opened, like a forgotten toy chest being opened after years of disuse, revealing its secret treasures. Thoughts and feelings that were his, but distant, like sleeping memories, filled his room, changing the objects and decor around him.
He remembered.
Notes: I used the summary of An Oath Fulfilled because it was the first one written. There's also stuff in Chapter 18, Chapter 22, and Chapter 27 of 🔒Fluff Will Keep Us Together.
