Summary: Gold on gold on gold – a promise; a spectre, of a lustre of possibilities once squandered.
Seto did not expect the promise of said gold when he was put on forced vacation in a beach somewhere far from home.
(Or how the first meeting of Seto and Katsuya was precipitated by the latter's gold.)
Note: I did this before seeing the Jounuary prompt so it's in Seto's POV mostly :') But hey, it's completely lensed around his obsession(?) with Katsuya!
Click below for a few preview paragraphs!
It was the day of Seto’s arrival when he had first caught sight of him. During an hour that most would consider healthy for sleep, aggravated into absolute wakefulness by his less than ideal pace at bypassing the locks his brother had very inconsiderately imposed on his latest research during his time away.
Needing to escape the claustrophobia of his own frustrations, Seto donned his robes and threw open the balcony, barely registering the cool midnight air before he found his gaze diverting beyond the ambience of his space.
Against the shroud of the night, a lone figure sat looking at the sprawl of the ocean; a head of gold with a lustre that seemed to emit its own glow under their shared company of the moon.
The beach was dark, holidaymakers having long departed for the warmth of their hotels hours prior. The man’s form was relaxed in his solitude, elbows anchored into the sand, legs outstretched and lightly crossed, unaffected by the way the crease of waves occasionally pressed at his feet.
In this scene of relative mundanity Seto was magnetised by their dichotomies of existences – darkness against light; constraint against freedom; gold against blue; an expanse of self against an expense of self.

Wanted to share some of the deets of my LNY Draco piece because I had too much fun detailing to have them lost in tumblr's compression :')
See the original post here!
Also, my lovely other half decided to enable me further by printing a whole bunch on some really nice gsm card stock (which also made it rough to cut oof), so guess it's going on our door!
马年奔腾!祝马尔福到~
May this year of the horse be one of galloping ascendance! Wishing everyone the arrival of Malfoy this Lunar New Year~
For those OOTL, this is why Draco is the mascot of this Lunar New Year. Gotta love the Chinese internet! Also we typically write blessings upside down since the homophone for being upside down is "arrival" :D
Some close-ups and a printed version in the next post because compression :')

JouKai Week for 2026 will run between Monday, January 19th and Sunday, January 25th, 2026.
💙 How does this work?
This event is open to anyone who's a fan of Kaiba and Joey.
A pair of prompts is provided every day. Feel free to pick and choose, or combine both prompts in your fanworks. You can make as many pieces as you want for any given day. Feel free to participate every day, or just on the days where you feel like it.
You can start working on your fills as soon as prompts are posted, but please do not post your finished works before the event starts.
❤️ What can I make?
Create whatever you're inspired to—fanart, traditional long-form fanfiction, poetry, crafts, mood boards, ship playlists, or headcanon posts.
The only stipulation is your work should primarily focus on Jounouchi and Kaiba. Otherwise, there are no restrictions on length or rating. Please keep in mind that it is common courtesy to provide ratings, warnings, and put NSFW or excessively long works under a "Read More" cut.
Go wild and have fun.
💙 Where should I post my work?
Wherever you want! While this event is run on tumblr, you're free to share your creations on tumblr, FF.net, AO3, twitter, etc. Mod will also reblog and share works that are tagged with @joukaiweek or #joukaiweek2026. Mod recommends doing both so your work doesn't get lost. Mod reserves the right to not reblog anything that does not fit the spirit of the event or is not properly rated/warned. Mod also requests you not share your finished creation until the day of the prompt.
