So I got a story idea but the shipping is really weird and the name for it has been lost on the internet but it’s funny because I still remember what the official name used to be but since it was Pedoshipping, I kind of am okay it faded off into nothing. Not like anyone really shipped it anyway- till me.
For those curious, Pedoshipping was Mokuba x Marik.
Boo me all you want, the way I ship it and the story I have in mind actually is kind of cute so hear me out just a second. (It also puts them only 3-4 years apart.)
Mokuba is livid that Yugi brought the vile spirit, Marik, back from the dead. He plans on giving him the worst tongue lashing of his lifetime and deliver a very clear warning that if Marik even so much as thinks about stepping out of line, he won’t live to regret it.
He has prepared for it despite it having been a short 24 hour notice that Marik is back and with the Ishtar’s. He is just so livid with all the harm, pain, and general evil Marik had been during the tournament but as soon as Ishizu walks in, Mokuba blinks in confusion. Where is Marik? Did they lose him?!
But out from behind Ishizu steps out a child who isn’t quite 10 years old. The appearance is unmistakable but… how is it possible that this kid is the same Marik that tried to hard to ruin their lives?
Then in walks Yugi with the other Ishtars. The small group allowing him to explain why he allowed him back, and vaguely on how, but the process left him his actual age from when he had first appeared.
Mokuba then realizes that Marik was born with pain as his first memory and a simple goal of wanting to get back at who caused him it. Being a child he must have been confused, right? Malik just shoving all the bad things onto his other side to deal with, no wonder he was so messed up but even so, that didn’t quiet clear things with him. So Mokuba takes it upon himself to keep an eye on Marik.
He notices the neglect the Ishtars still have for him half the time, the resentment Malik still holds, how Yugi’s gang is uneasy or won’t go near him for long, and eventually Mokuba takes it upon himself to become Marik’s first real friend.
Yeah….
Anyway, since the name is gone and no one else seems to want it, I am thinking about calling the ship something new! Something like… Resolveshipping or Reformshipping. (Because they both undergone massive changes. Mokuba wasn’t so innocent in his start either, what with trying to poison Yugi and cut off his fingers…)
