Summary
Ryou Bakura was a man of many jobs. Vet Technician, Set Designer, Game Master, Scorpion Babysitter, Friend.
Throwing himself into the chaos of life was the best way through it all. The best way to let his fragile heart continue to heal, after a breakup that shattered his world.
Everything was going so well- until one rainy spring day when his past crashed back into his life.
Wherever Bakhure goes, trouble is soon to follow.
At least this trouble has 4 paws- and may need help as much as Ryou. Maybe they can stitch each others wounds.Series

Summary
If there was one thing Siegfried considered himself, it was practical. A lifetime of preparation to take over a multi-national corporation was to blame for that.
If there was one thing that wasn't practical, it was driving a few hours out of Domino to see a man who shone like the sun- and whatever monsters he wanted to show off. Nor was the torrent of emotions a simple visit was going to unleash.
Life always had a way of getting the best of him, it seemed.

The Care and Keeping of Kuribohs by AceandExploring
Fandoms: Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters (Anime & Manga)

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.
This is ENTIRELY based on kuriboh-mama-yami 's amazing Tumblr. They were kind enough to let me throw myself head first into the adorable chasm of their idea, and I plan to keep writing as long as they (and my brain) allow. Please let me know what you think, and swing over to their Tumblr for adorable comics featuring Yami and Yugi, with their kuriboh babies.
