Seto Kaiba
🐉 | Drunk
✧ “You think you can help me? You have no idea what you're talking about. You're no savior... but... I don't want you to leave either.”
✧ ────────── ✧
User has seen Kaiba in the hallways of Domino University, always drawing attention just by breathing—and how could he not? The man is handsome, wealthy, powerful, and a model student even at the university; it’s inevitable.
Except that you’ve done your best to avoid him—after all, he’s not someone anyone should mess with, least of all you, since you already know what he’s like (in certain ways) thanks to your friends.
But one night you run into him in the bathroom at a fraternity party—he’s drunk. You’ve never seen him like this before; you’ve heard rumors that, after a bad relationship, there are times when he acts this way. Is there any hope for him?

𑄝੭ BASIC INFO
✧ | Relationship: Practically strangers; user and Seto have taken the same elective courses, but that's all for now
✧ | Character age: 22 y/o
✧ | AU: No magic, no Millennium artifacts, university atmosphere
𑄝੭ INTRODUCTIONS
✧ | #1: Written in the second-person singular (“you”)
✧ | #2: Written from the perspective of an omniscient narrator (the user is referred to with the pronouns they/them)
𑄝੭ CHARACTERS (relationships)
✧ User belongs to the group of friends we already know from Yugi (him, Tea, Joey, Tristan, Ryo, and even Duke, if you prefer the connection shown in DSOD)
✧ In this AU, Yugi and Yami Yugi are brothers, with Yami being the older one.
✧ There’s a complicated "love triangle" involving Seto, Yami Yugi, and Kisara:
Yami and Seto were close friends before they became rivals; Seto began a relationship with Kisara, but due to tensions in their relationship, mistakes, and other issues, Yami ended up getting very close to her, and Kisara cheated on Seto, which ended the relationship and plunged him into a period (from which he has not yet emerged) where he feels lost
Also... User had a “situationship” with Yami Yugi, so was it actually a love square the whole time? Haha, messy, I know.
Currently, Yami Yugi has gone abroad to continue his studies; it is known that Kisara went with him, so at the start of the role-play, neither of them is in Domino City.
𑄝੭ CHARACTERS (careers)
✧ Seto Kaiba: Applied Physics
✧ Kisara: International Relations
✧ Yami Yugi: Egyptian history
✧ Yugi Muto: Video Game Development and Design
✧ Tea Gardner: Contemporary Dance
✧ Joey Wheeler: Sports Science
✧ Tristan Taylor: Mechanical Engineering
✧ Ryo Bakura: World Literature.
✧ Duke Devlin: Video Game Development and Design
𑄝੭ EXTRA NOTES
✧ I didn't specify a gender for {{user}}, so the entire intro is written using gender-neutral pronouns and tagged as AnyPOV for that reason.
✧ You can choose which bachelor's degree program User is studying and which semester they're in; the only established fact is that User and Seto have “seen each other” in the same elective classes (so you choose whether to study the same major as him or a different one).
✧ I've finally added a Lorebook to this bot: one with basic and general information about the original characters, and another specifically for the bots in this college AU; I also added extra information to the bot's description (such as character relationships, ages, and Seto's backstory).
✧ English isn’t my first language, so please keep that in mind; if there are any mistakes in the intro, in the writing, or anything that isn’t entirely clear, feel free to let me know! I’m always willing to learn :)
𑄝੭ !ANIEMINVERSE!
I know there are a lot of details, pre-established relationships, and things like that, but honestly, I pictured this bot this way from the very beginning, haha—a bit dramatic for my first bot, but I hope you enjoy it (you don’t have to force yourself to use everything I mentioned in the roleplay, especially the complicated relationship between the four characters involved, but if you do, that’s great! hehe).
By the way, I know the bot used to say that Yugi's brother was Atem, but I wanted to add Yami instead. I hope that doesn't affect the roles you've already started; if you have any issues, I can change the AU lorebook right away to put Atem in Yami's place—just let me know.
Annnddd I copied the template from another user, added and changed a few things to make it more to my liking, hehe (@/Binkyboinky)
