:O Yuugi's been turned into Pharaoh!Yuugi? Whut? I hope he kicks Sasori's ass.

Yes, the chapter was short, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Perhaps that just means the next chapter will be up soon? ♥

Got it in one! And, erm, you'll see.

Most likely! Because now I don't hate what's going on. Sasori was just being really stubborn for this part, but after this? Oh. So fun.

Once, when I first started writing fanfiction (and was terrible at it), I wrote an AU where Yuugi was the Pharaoh and Atemu was the "captured slave;" a total reversal of the usual cliche (which is the only thing I was proud of about that fic: it was original). XD Pharaoh!Yuugi is smexy.

So, Sasori's just another plot bump on the way to get Yuugi and Yami to be closer? ♥ xD I hope that means more smut on the way~

Oh man, I remember the days when I was terrible at fanfiction. Those were dark, dark times. [Several words for you: Sailor Moon / Dragonriders of Pern crossover. UGH.] The only archive had that any of it crashed pretty much beyond recovery, so, um, yay?

And Pharaoh Yuugi *is* very sexy - though dark Yuugi will pretty much be going D= the entire time.

Mmm. With all the other stuff going on, I'm not sure if there's a place for more smut. It *would* be nice, though, just... hrrrrmmm. We'll see how it goes.

I provide linkage for sheer lulz. 'Cause it's just that bad. xD It might've had potential if the characters weren't completely OOC (which is probably why it's one of more popular fics; apparently fangirls love OOC-ness. >.<). 8D

Poor Yami and Poor Yuugi! (maybe?) Though, I'm definitely intriqued as to how it'll pan out~...

No more smut? Awww, well, as long as they get a happy ending? Or, at least, as happy as they can get? (Damn you, Yami no Yuugi! You promised him forever, and then broke that promise! D':)

I remember reading that! And I remember thinking, "Oh god, ow. Why must the potential be so painful?"

More 'Poor Yami,' but it's bad times all around.

I'M TRYING, BUT THEY'RE BEING STUBBORN. ;__; The first draft ending, which I wrote in about six hours on almost no sleep and a painful headache, would pretty much have been finished this chapter if I cut the last scene and instead had dark Yuugi going around Mind Crushing everything that moves and start building the puzzle and, essentially, turning into god. It was not a happy ending. At all. ;_____;

They both suck at keeping promises.

You've actually read it? All the way through? D: I can't even look at it anymore. I've learned a lot since then, thank goodness.

You know, I'd actually like to see that. It makes for an interesting mental image.

But he broke the promise first. D: (Or so I believe. 'Cause then it gives me a reason to write a post-series, F'ED UP! Yuugi)

It was when I first got into fandom [earlier this year], so I was unrealistically hopeful that the popular stories were all very good.

Maybe when it's all over I'll post the "alternate endings"

Mmm, but dark Yuugi didn't do it on purpose.

[Pretty! ^_^ Oh! Also? Though I hadn't read it before, and quite obviously predates it, the opening of that last one kinda reads like my opening to this one, which is dark and full of woe and pronoun confusion.]

[Also - random friendship!! Hi there. Don't be too excited, I pretty much just complain about my cat]

Yeah, unfortunately, it's more of the good fics receive very few reviews, but there are less of them, which makes finding them difficult. But since you like Y/Y, I suggest reading edmondia's fanfiction. She's pure awesomeness. And probably started the Omote/Hikari pairing fad in the English speaking fandom. xD She started writing for YGO back in 2000, so that gives you an idea of just how long she's been in the fandom. xD

Alternate Endings, eh? xD It's like a movie! That'd be cool!

[Eeek! Kleptoshipping squicks me. D: I like my Yami no Bakura dark, sadistic, and manipulative like that, but with Yuugi... *shudders*]

Hahaha, yes, I've read her too. It feels like if you've been in this fandom for more than three months, you've probably read everything.

>_> Another commenter is tempting me to write a gag ending with Necromancer Shizuka and scared-of-himself Jounouchi the zombie. So.

!! Aww, sorry. I don't even like kleptoshipping either, but Bakura WOULDN'T LEAVE ME ALONE ;___;

Yes, that's the terribly sad thing about the YGO fandom: There's so little good fic out there. T_T

I'd read it. xD That'd be FTW.

Bakura does that to me once in a while, but usually in the form of tendershippy fics. OTP!

^_^ So very little! Everything anyone ever recommends to me, I've already read. Possibly twice [because I'm too optimistic for my own good].

@_@ it'd probably be easier if I actually knew anything about Shizuka's character other than "sister who kinda almost went blind." *fails hardcore*

Normally I just get Yuugi going "HAY! Here's a brilliant idea!" - which wouldn't be so bad if I didn't tell other people Yuugi's brilliant idea and have them go "WRITE IT OR DIE."

Though lately Anzu's been harassing me for some attention [wtf, story about hands?], so there may be a one-shot about her in the near future.

[oh, and hey, after I finish this I'll harass you for good tendership stories, because I'm sure there HAVE to be some good ones that I'm just not finding.]
