Spoilers:  Mentions of things through end of Battle City, but nothing specific
Summary:

Mai Kujaku is faced with one of her oddest tasks yet--extricating Jounouchi, whom she hadn't seen in over a year, from a one-way crush on a cranky CEO, whom he still hates despite all uncontrolled lusting. Chaos ensues and unrequited lub abounds.

Notes:

Okay, this is just silly.  But very amusing.  For some reason, I can totally see Jou and Kaiba doing the "I want you, but I really hate you" thing. *Snerk*  And yay for the bit of Polarshipping, toward the end. ^_^

Summary:

Finding Heart

A WYDS/WRH of the Battle City arc. After getting a second chance in the Battle City tournament, Rex Raptor decides to improve his dueling to ensure that he doesn't lose his Serpent Night Dragon again. Will the discoveries he makes about himself and the friendship he finds in unexpected places lead him to the Heart of the Cards?

Brighter Days

In the wake of Battle City, Rex starts to adjust to all of the changes that have taken place in his life. Now that he has true friends and the ability to give his family a better life, are there brighter days ahead...or do old foes and the threat of the shadows still hold sway? (This story is a sequel to Finding Heart and a companion-piece to Out of the Shadows.)

The Lizard King

While moving into his new house, Rex finds an iguana in his backyard...and a series of misadventures leads to its becoming his new pet. (Yes, I actually wrote a one-shot! It was originally a flashback in the first chapter of my next story, but I felt I needed to make it a separate piece in order to do it justice. Now, it's a little side-story that takes place between Brighter Days and Lucky at Cards....)

Lucky at Cards...

When the gang travels to America for the 2003 Intercontinentals, a few months after Battle City, Rex is reunited with an old childhood friend...and with a little help from Joey & Mai, he finds the true love he's been looking for.

Tug of War

After returning from his trip to America, Rex continues trying to forge a new friendship with Weevil...which isn't easy, since Weevil still doesn't get along with Joey and the others. Will Weevil learn how to behave himself and make peace with the rest of the gang, or is Rex doomed to be torn between them?

Notes:

Since these fics (and the others that will be listed in the entry below this one) all follow the same storyline, I've listed them together...'cause, really...you should read them all! ^_^

I really like these fics.  I was never a Ryuzaki fan, but these fics made me one.  I really love how this author writes him...and all the other characters, for that matter.  It's always nice to see a minor character get some back-story, and get fleshed out a bit.

Author:  Shigeru1313
Genre:  Drama/Romance
Pairings:  Jou/Mai
Status:  Complete, Complete, WIP
Spoilers:  Through the end of Battle City
Summary:

Out of the Shadows

When Mai wakes up after the Battle City finals, Joey and his friends help her cope with the ordeal she went through while trapped in the Shadow Realm. Will learning how much Joey cares about her and that she's not alone help Mai realize that she's no longer in the shadows? (Another beautiful Joey & Mai story! *_*)

What the Heart Knows

In the weeks following Battle City, Joey and Mai's relationship continues to develop. But while Joey is still trying to muster the courage to tell Mai that he's in love with her, she's offered a job in America. Will Mai take the job to help support her family, or will she and Joey finally be able to admit what they already know in their hearts? (Another excellent Joey & Mai story! *.*)

The Dragon's Back

In the fall of 2021, the gang's children are putting on a school play based on a story that Rex wrote 18 years earlier. As Joey watches his son, Sean, and Rex's son, Brendan, getting ready for their roles, he remembers the adventure he and Rex shared on The Dragon's Back and how Rex came to write his story.... (Another wonderful story! ^_^)

Notes:

Without a doubt, the best Polarshippy stories I've read.  I love these fics!  Though, I recommend that you also read Cori's Ryuzaki-centric fics (see above rec), as well.  They all share a common story line and frequently reference each other...so, it helps to read them all. ^_^

AU. Take the hand of the devil in a city full of sin... and save yourself, if you can.

Notes:

One of the few AUs that I like...but then, it's by the talented Edmondia...how could I not like it? ^^  An interesting fic inspired by the song of the same name (incidentally, hearing the song on the radio one morning is what convinced me to ignore my dislike of AUs and finally read it).  This fic has very rich descriptions, and an interesting air to it...I really can't do it justice.  Just go read it!

Notes:

Lengthy rec for a lengthy fic.  =P  Seriously, though...this is quite possibly the best Yuugiou epic fic I've ever read.  It's so rare to find fics of this length and quality in any fandom, so I'm always thrilled when I do come across one.  This fic will likely ensnare you for a few days, but it's totally worth it.  <3
