Important things about this photoset:

  1. Yugi’s hair is apparently genetic
  2. Yugi’s hair can probably squish under a hat
  3. Grandpa is physically capable of withstanding a straight up glomp from his teenage grandchild who is comparable height to him not ONLY without throwing his back out but without being much fazed in general WHILE wearing a very large backpack
  4. Despite the backpack (which is also hooked around Grandpa’s waist) Yugi has managed to hook his legs around Grandpa such that he’s clinging to him like he’s a little kid (like how did they disentangle?  Did Yugi have to flip upside down?)
  5. These dorks really love each other, gosh

I totally agree with the original post and I love it.

But seeing Solomon’s hair free still reminds me how he looks like an old love child of Marik and Yugi. 

Something I find hilarious and partly makes me wonder if there can be some fun wonky AUs to where Solomon is a grandpa to the Ishtars but is unaware of it as a result of his wild archaeologist/Indiana Jones days. Bedding many women over time for fun one night stands and taking off on a new adventure… And these women having kids who have kids… *rambles*

Role play?

I kind of really want to roleplay this silly idea I’ve had where Marik is desperate for a job because Ishizu and Rishid are going to kick his ass to the curb if he can’t prove that he can be a good member of society. So in his search he gets turned down time and time again, even getting himself laughed out of Duke’s shop because of past experiences with him. After all this, he comes across one last place. The Kame Game Shop.

For those of you who don’t remember what that is, it is Solomon Muto’s (Yugi’s grandpa) game shop. It has this adorable little turtle on the sign since Kame means turtle in Japanese. 

Anyway, Marik walks in to find Solomon sweeping the floor and asks where the owner of the place is to which Solomon stops his chores and goes behind the counter revealing he is, in fact, the owner. Marik has his doubts. This place can’t possibly be worth working for but he is desperate so he asks if there is a position available. Solomon says he’s not exactly in the bracket for hiring despite his only help being busy with school and his friends all the time. 

Still desperate and noticing the cards for sale, Marik asks if the old man plays. Naturally, Solomon goes into a little rant about his olden days when he was quite the player. So Marik challenges him to a duel. If he wins, he gets a job there. If he loses, he’ll go away and bother someone else.

Seeing that the place is empty, Solomon hesitantly agrees. The outcome of the duel can be determined in the rp. Marik can either win or Solomon could and feel like giving Marik the job anyway or they could even tie, I don’t care. (Personally, I don’t see Marik losing to anyone but yeah.)

So Marik gets the job there but has no idea that this old man is Yugi’s grandpa. Days go by and Marik is working fairly well, I’m sure there are plenty of things he could get bored/into trouble with in that time. Hell, Bakura can even get a job there later with him or something- but eventually Marik will find out that Yugi lives there and there shall be one hell of an argument there. 

Anyway, yeah. Tons of things could happen. This is just some idea I’ve been wanting to try out for a while now. I don’t have to be Marik, I’m willing to be anyone/everyone else if need be. I just want to rp. Any takers?
