| About the Blog |
| This blog was created to showcase my submissions to the LiveJournal
community 100 Themes. I have claimed two pairings from two different
series. The first pairing is Touzoku'ou Bakura and Jyonouchi Katsuya
from Yuugiou; the second pairing I've claimed is Envy and Edward
Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist. There will be close to 200
stories when I've completed all the themes, even though I am likely
to double up on a few of them. Yes, these works will all be shounen-ai
in nature; if that's not your kink, you're free to leave. |

Title: Sam Who? Theme: 086 - Holiday Fandom: Yuugiou Pairing: Touzoku'ou Bakura x Jyonouchi Katsuya (wrapshipping) Rating: T (Note: Yes, this is the thief king. Why it's him and how he's in modern Japan is semi-explained herein.) "So who's this Sam guy the stupid Pharaoh and his midget were talking about?" Jyonouchi looked up from the English homework he was attempting to do and shot Bakura an odd look. "Sam?" The thief nodded. "Yeah. Sam Hayne or something. Who is he?" Bakura scowled when his boyfriend started snickering. "What?" "They were talking about Samhain" - he pronounced it so-ween - "it's a holiday, but not really celebrated here. It's more of an American holiday; they call it Halloween." "Oh." Bakura seemed to be letting the subject drop, so Jyonouchi returned his attention to his book. "What happens on Samhain?" Knowing from past experience that Bakura wasn't going to stop till he had an answer, the blond pushed his homework off to one side and rested his elbows on the table. "I don't really know much about it. What I do know is, the Celts used to divide the year into two parts, light and dark. The light was marked by Beltane on May 1, and the dark by Samhain on November 1. It was a pretty important holiday for them." Bakura leaned on the table, chin propped on his hand and silver eyes locked on his boyfriend's. "So what's all this hubbub about October 31?" "Well, the Celts saw that date as the most magically potent time of the festival of Samhain," the blond said with a small shrug; in all honesty he was a bit fascinated by other cultural beliefs, even with his fear of the occult (of which Bakura was trying to break him). "They felt that the laws of time and space were suspended, and the dead were able to communicate with the living. It was a big deal for them. There are still people who feel that way and celebrate Samhain rather than Halloween. In a sense I guess it's kinda like Obon that way." "Well, I like Obon," Bakura said with a slight smirk. Jyonouchi couldn't help but ask, "Oh? And why's that, Kura?" The Egyptian responded by leaning across the table and lightly tugging at the cord around the other's neck, pulling the Sennen Ring up into view for a moment. "Because that's the day I came back to you," Bakura said matter-of-factly before leaning in to steal a kiss, although it couldn't really be called stealing seeing as Jyonouchi wasn't protesting. "Now do your homework, Jyonou." "Baka." It was said affectionately, though. "I'm not the one failing English." "No, but you are the one who keeps distracting me when I'm trying to study," Jyonouchi countered with a decisive nod. He yelped slightly when Bakura moved around the table, picked him up, sat down in the chair and pulled him down into his lap. "There. Do your homework." Silence settled between them, comfortably so, and the younger of the pair returned his attention to his studies. "...so what's this 'trick-or-treat' thing?" owari Sources for Samhain information are as follows: CelticSpirit.org Wicca.com And yes, Jyonouchi can't get a break. Apparently Yuugi explained all the 'fun' aspects of holidays to Atem, who bragged them to Bakura, who now wants the 'real' story from his boyfriend. It's a vicious cycle, really ^^; Posted 7:48 PM
