IAmAllYetNotAtAll
This is my first time being a MOD for a Zine however I've been a part of several in the past. I've been a fan of our Tendershipping boys for over a decade and am looking forward to working with everyone to make this a success!

Hi, I'm Resuri-! I was bored and decided to read Yu-Gi-Oh! again in summer 2022. I wasn't ready for the hyperfixation to hit me so hard. Since then I have been obsessed with those guys, and especially with the Bakura/Marik gang. I hope we can all share our love for tendershipping with this zine.

My name is Sair and I write fics. This isn't my first time modding a zine but it is my first with this team, and I'm very excited about the direction we've taken this zine since taking it over from the old mod team! I hope you stick around to see what we create!
