He was trying to control the world. You can't do that. That's my whole...
i guess it's as close to a point as I get. He did what everybody did, just in a shorter time. He was born, he flailed around a while, didn't make a whole lot of difference, and then he died.
I just wish... as a species, we could... move beyond that. Just a little bit?

Ahhh, yes, as intermissions go it wasn't the worst. But it's good to be back.

There was...something I was forgetting...
Ah. That's right. Just curiosity, but have you by any chance gotten around to playing your little game yet, Bakura? You really should keep me posted, you know, a man can't make all his own entertainment.

Indeed I did finish the sennet board, and I would have let you know sooner but you weren't quite yourself last week. Does this mean you want a demonstration?

[Joker grins. Not bad. That little hoop was punishment, of course, for not keeping him posted before, and mentally he congratulates Bakura for jumping through it so nimbly]
I would love one. Will I get to pick my playing pieces?

Morning, sweetheart, not too much I'm afraid. [He yawns] Just coming back from a little vacation, not my choice, but a man's got to take a break once in a while.
Oh, I always have fun, but holidays are some of my favorite times of the year.
I think I'm missing something in context here. What do you mean by vacation? I still don't really get the rules around here.
[She holds her hand in front of her and opens and closes her fingers. Well, she was fine with this rule, whatever it was. At least she could talk to people.]
Well occasionally our lovely host lets her guests take little...naps. They go away for a few days, and then they come back refreshed and ready to get right back into the swing of things.
It's quite nice of her. I'll have to thank her properly later, she's such a sweetheart you know.
Yes? no? Possibly? I certainly don't remember, or when I do, it's different every time. Funny, isn't it?
Well, in as much as anything we "know" or "remember" here at all is real. Val made every one of us, after all. Nothing we come from is real. You, for instance, were born in a little tube, here, and grown, all alone, not so much as a flower to keep you company.

He should have stayed. I'd take him over you any day.

Not anymore. Although I don't think I would have screamed like that. [He giggles]
funny, isn't it, how suicide is a crime but you can't usually be arrested for it? Just proves I'm the best at what I do.

And the Christmas season is a time for giving gifts. Wonderful gifts that I've given everybody in the facility. Or... those smart enough to find them.

Going to have fun for the holidays?

A flower.... that never.... existed.
