Angel: "Very true. You see, the first time Fable made this collection, we weren't aware of BrOTP / Platonic Love ships. We thought that every ship would always be seen in a 'romantic' light, so we were a bit surprised to see Grace x Gloria. But just recently we realize that not all ships are just about romance. After all, there are different types of love out there."

Gloria: "And when did you come across this 'realization'?"

Angel: "...Yesterday..."

Gloria: "Are you serious?!"

Angel: "In our defense, no one ever told us about BrOTP!"

Lulu: "Well, at least you know now."

Angel: "Exactly! And also, yeah, me and Fable can come up with some really weird AU's. We probably should have done a bit more world building with that one, but what's done is done. And no, you're on the right track with that list!"


Unknowedz

Shay: "Excited my ass! I'm the only sane person in this damn place!"

Yuto: "Then why did you sign the contract? It's not like Angel forced you too."

Shay: "..."

Yuto: "...What did she bribe you with?"

(Backstage all they can hear is screaming and the enraged cry of a falcon.)

Sylvio: "Shay! Call off your crazy bird!"

Yuto: "She gave you a falcon?!"

Shay: "...No."

(A falcon flies out and perches on Shay's shoulder, ruffling its feathers.)

Yuto: "..."

Shay: "...Maybe."

Angel: "His name is Raid!"

Pen: "Yuya x Gloria, huh? I don't even know what you could call it. Maybe Serioushipping? Because unlike Grace, Gloria is serious and Yuya can also be serious when he wants to be. Also Funshipping is the pairing name for Yuya x Grace and the opposite of fun is serious..."

Gloria: "You're thinking way too hard about this."

Pen: "Story of my life."


RvB Universe

(Sorry about not posting my reply in the last chapter! I didn't see your review until after I had already posted the chapter!)

Angel: "It's a little too quiet around here...something isn't right..."

(Angel thinks for a moment.)

Angel: "Oh! Hey, Pen!"

Pen: "Yeah?"

Angel: "Didn't you send invites to the Red vs. Blue Arc-V AU?"

Pen: "...I tried."

Angel: "You 'tried' as in 'you couldn't do it' or you 'tried' as in 'you didn't want to'?"

Pen: "I 'tried' as in 'they all pointed their guns at me and I got the fudge out of there'."

Angel: "Oh...so they haven't changed."

Pen: "Nope."


queen of stars

Angel: "No. No, he will not."

Yuya: "Wait...if Shay was tied up in the back, then who was playing his role during the last act?"

Angel: "Ink is an amazing thing. I'll tell you that much."

(Everyone is confused until Shay appears, but it wasn't really Shay. Suddenly his entire form turns black and ink begins to drip off his body, revealing Paper underneath.)

Yugo: "What the?! Paper?! You were Shay?!"

Paper: "We may be humans, but we weren't created in the same realm as you all. Me and my family can use ink to change our forms. At least for a short while."

Yugo: "That's so cool!"

Paper: "Indeed."

Angel: "Yup! And even though Shay is obligated by contract to fulfill his parts, I didn't want to take a chance of him ruining the show because Shay...is Shay. However! Now that the 'rage' is out of his system, he should be good to go! Right Shay?"

Shay: "Fuck off."

(Declan glances over at Angel.)

Declan: "Are you sure about that?"

Angel: "He isn't screaming death threats anymore is he? That's probably the calmest we're going to get him. Places, everyone!"


Angel: "Now onto Ametrineshipping! The shipping name for Declan Akaba, Lulu Obsidian, and Shay Obsidian. It's basically Amethystshipping but with Shay! This AU has the Arc-V gang as 'lab experiments' made by Leo Akaba. This chapter was also shown in the first collection so like before, we're gonna post two chapters once again! So stay tuned!"


Ship Name: Ametrineshipping (Declan Akaba x Lulu Obsidian x Shay Obsidian)

Name Reason: Named so because ametrine is a naturally occurring quartz that is a mixture of amethyst and citrine. As amethyst and citrine are gems that can be used to describe Declan's and Shay's respective eye color and ametrine is a combination of both. Both, Shay and Declan, can be seen as cold, or hardened like a stone, and Lulu's name and part of her deck theme are related to gems. It is also safe to assume that the gem embedded in Lulu's bracelet is a citrine. The color of her eyes is similar to that of an amethyst more reddish/pink than the 'ideal' amethyst.


She Saved Us

"Would you stop fucking ignoring me!" Shay's eyes widen in shock, but before he could react two hands grabbed his shoulders and pinned him to a wall. Shay could see that Declan's face had changed now.

His violet eyes had darken to a darker shade of purple. Even his hair was a darker shade of gray. His hands had become claw-like and black like coal. Declan hadn't completely tapped into his Fiend transformation but it was clear he had better control over his powers than Shay did.

Shay's Raidraptor wings flapped uselessly against the metal wall. Declan's grip held strong, forcing the Winged Beast boy to look at him.

"You're not the only one who wants to find her so I suggest you stop pretending I'm not here." Declan hissed. Shay narrowed his eyes, refusing to back down even though he was the one pinned to the wall.

"Put me down." Shay growled.

"Not until you agree to listen to me."

"LIKE HELL I WILL!"

"Keep your fucking voice down! Are you trying to alert my father?!" Declan asked in a hushed whisper. Shay hates to admit that he might actually be right. "Listen. You're looking for Lulu, so am I. Let's help each other out."

"What do you want with my sister?" Shay mutters. Declan's grip relaxes slightly.

"I...I owe her."

"Owe her? What do you mean?" Declan finally released Shay and stood up. He was slightly taller than him.

"She saved me...from myself."

"Yourself? What? Were you planning on killing yourself?" Shay asked, wrinkling his nose. Suicide was a pretty common thing around here. He could probably only estimate the number of kids he has seen hang or stab themselves.

"Don't tell me you never thought about it?" Declan said. Shay has. But the thought of finding his sister and escaping is what kept him going. "Lulu gave me hope that everything will turn out alright. That we would find a way to escape. She helped me through those hard times as she did with anyone else who was around her. I admire her for that." Shay's heart warmed at those words. That sounded just like his Lulu.

"Yeah. Lulu was always one for helping out others."

"I made a promise to her. Before we got separated. I told her I would get her out."

"Did you now?"

"Of course. She saved my life. I only wanted to return the favor. Surprisingly, that isn't what she wanted."

"What?" Declan met Shay's gaze evenly.

"She told me that if I was ever to escape, I needed to find you and get you out." Shay wasn't at all surprised by this. Of course Lulu would put his life above her own, but that wasn't how it was suppose to go.

It didn't matter what happen to him. As long as Lulu was safe and happy.

"My original plan was to get you out first and come back for her." Declan continued. "But from your attitude I'm guessing that you won't be leaving quietly."

"I'm not leaving without Lulu." Shay stated clearly. Declan sighed.

"I figured as much. Let's go then." Declan turned and began walking down the hallway, the same direction Shay had been going in before being stopped by him.

"Where are we going?" Shay asked, actually rushing to keep up.

"Lulu is one of my father's more 'successful' experiments so she's being kept father below than the others. How well can you control your transformation?"

"Not as good as you." Shay admitted. "But enough." Shay's wings disappeared, melting back into his body. It used to hurt like hell to summon his wings, but he has gotten used to it.

"Good. We're going to need it."


Angel: "Alrighty! Now that Shay's torture hour is over with we can move onto a new pair we haven't seen yet! But before that! I need you all to do a little voting poll on Fable's profile! By clicking on Fable's username, it will bring you to her profile. At the very top of her profile is a poll you guys can vote on. It's nothing too fancy. Just a standard, which is your favorite ship question. But you have to be a registered user to vote."

Yuri: "Is there a reason for all of this?"

Angel: "Yes! And if you guys actually read the back of your contracts, you might've known why."

Yuya: "The back?"

Zuzu: "What?!"

Yugo: "There was a back?!"

Yuto: "You have got to be kidding me."

(The Dragon Boys and Bracelet Girls scramble for their contracts, reading over the back quickly.)

Lulu: "Oh no..."

Rin: "Why didn't we read the back?!"

Celina: "I knew there was more to this!"

Yuri: "Eh, I've been put through worse."

Zuzu: "Ray! Are you seeing this?!"

(Ray and Zarc look up from their contracts and simply shrug.)

Zarc: "I can think of worse ways to spend my afternoons."

Ray: "Honestly, not surprised."

Angel: "Some of you may be wondering what's going on. Well, I won't say until the time is right. The voting poll has to do with an old story of Fable's. Maybe some of you can guess which one it is. But until then, lets get some votes! Also, if you can't vote on the poll then put your vote down in a review. Here's the question and answers -

Poll Question: Which is your favorite Dimensional Matching Dragon Boy / Bracelet Girl ship in Yu-Gi-Oh Arc-V? (Not including Zarc x Ray!)

Choices:

- Yuya x Zuzu (Fruitshipping)

- Yuto x Lulu (Fallenangelshipping)

- Yugo x Rin (Appleshipping)

- Yuri x Celina (Predatorshipping)

Angel: "Now then, on with the show! Nico! Melissa! It's your time to shine!"
