/Okay, honestly, this was written because I don't see enough appreciation for YuGiOh R (also known as Rebirth of Avatar). I really love the Tenma twins, they're very underrated characters, and they deserve some more love. With that out of the way, here's your dose of feels for father's day.


"Yakou?"

Soft footsteps on the hard soil, flower petals raining down from the apple trees. Grey and white and black stones sticking up from the ground, plain stone or marble slabs between intricately patterned or carved stones and the occasional statue, and, kneeling before a simple white pedestal, a single figure praying. To Gekkou, the scene looked almost surreal.

This should never have been.

"Yakou? I'm here."

His twin looked up, smiled through his tears.

"Thank you."

"I brought a gift for him."

"Flowers?"

Gekkou shook his head.

"Something better. Something more personal."

He slowly walked towards the grave, undid the wrapping around the package. Bright colours on pale canvas, an image familiar to both of them, but with no meaning for strangers. He knelt and placed the painting on the stone, resting against the pedestal.

"You're getting better." Yakou smiled at his brother. "He would be proud of you."

"I know he would."

A pause.

"He would be proud of you, too."

"Do you think so?"

"I know so."

Gekkou smiled and stood up. He gently placed a hand on his brother's shoulder.

"We should go home."

"We should."

Yakou stood up, brushed the dirt off of his knees, wiped the last of his tears away. Before they left, he took one more look at the painting and the pedestal.

"Happy Father's Day, Master Pegasus."
