Saving reviews

"I know how Kira kills." These are not words that Seto Kaiba wants to say, nor what L expects to hear. But with the rise of an old enemy, Seto doesn't have a choice. He will have to regroup with old allies (perhaps friends) and join the battle against Kira to save the world - and to protect those that he realizes he can't live without. Rated T for some violence and language.

Joey runs a coffee shop, Kaiba drinks it black. S/J. Rated T for some swearing (okay, a lot of swearing...)

After a year, Jou has his and Kaiba's routine down to a science. They fight; they crash together; he leaves. It's not romance – it's just physical and probably would have stayed that way if he hadn't found Mokuba outside of his apartment building getting his face smashed in. [hiatus]

I've asked you for colours, here they are. [Post-Canon. Experimental drabbles per request. Multi-pairing. Prompt and pairing to preface each piece.]

Despite the title, it's NOT a crossover! It's business as usual in the Yu-Gi-Oh! world… monsters are attacking, Yugi and friends are about to save the day and Kaiba's their reluctant ally. Friendship and trust seem irrelevant until a cat-headed goddess decides to meddle. Obviously AU. Eventual, implied Prideshipping.
