Because all I have to do is type and edit, and not actively write the thing? >_> and I have nothing better to do with my time... Heh, hooray!

Thank you for enjoying it! These last few chapters were really, really fun to write (back in July/August), so it makes me very happy when other people enjoy them as much!

Go for it! Considering how frequently - and somewhat randomly - I update, ^_^ I somewhat recommend it.
Of course, there's always the subscription feature, which I guess someone could use just to watch for entries with a certain tag, which is definitely convenient here with my overabundance of tagging...

*sigh*
This made my day so much better, I actually have tears in my eyes because I'm so happy Yuugi got his other self back.

But better still, when he got him back it wasn't all rainbows and unicorns and kittens.. the conflict between them made it all more real.

There's lots more to say, and I will, after I re-read it when my brain isn't melting from fever..

Thank you! I'm really happy you're enjoying this so much - and I'm happy that this bout of depressing lack of the other Yuugi was relatively short lived.

The rainbows and unicorns and kittens (in love!) are later.

You've a fever? Augh! Get better and don't let your brain melt beyond all recognition!

Yay reunion of comfort and angst and woe!

Ooh, do let me know. (to be perfectly honest, it took me a while to realize there was a Dark Game going on, too. Dark Yuugi is pretty sneaky like that.)

You mentioned it in this chapter didnt you? Or am I thinking of something else... The whole 'The puzzle in itself is a Dark Game that can control Dark Games' thing.

(I'm probably looking at the wrong thing...)

The Puzzle is a Dark Game, yes, but that is not the game I'm referring to.

Another hint: it is related to Monsters Kill You Dead, but this dark game (which is not the dark game Dark Yuugi plays against Hikari) doesn't start until a chapter or so later, ends a chapter or so after that, and there's no visible opponent.

What a terrible place to stop at! You taunt us! xD

Again, amazing characterization. Thank you for pointing out Yuugi's lack of need for his other self. So many people forget that when writing Yuugi. It's like they either ignore or forget the fact that it's Yuugi who eventually overcomes Yami no Yuugi, and not any one else. Though it takes some time for him to become so in the series, Yuugi is strong and capable of taking care of himself.

Still, even though you pointed this out, you emphasized Yuugi's want to keep his other self around. I think that's what makes the difference between most of the cliched fics out there and your writing. That conscious decision Yuugi makes means so much more in a relationship than two people who are merely attached to one another and depend on each other ( ... )

[long reply, ahoy!]
[slightly related icon, also, ahoy!]

Hey - I was seriously considering just chopping the chapter after the rescue and leaving the reunion until later this week, so *shakes fist* you uoung'uns take what you get and be thankful, goshdarnit! [/senile] Anyway... Yes. Oh, the taunting and the teasing and the build up.

Yes, yes, thank you! Yuugi is absolutely my favorite character because he's so much stronger emotionally than any other person (or former person) in the series - so it makes me so... so DEPRESSED to constantly read about Yuugi the Emo Whore. In this story he just gets a major kick-start towards that development, and is given more of a choice. (After all, he goes through all that to rescue the other Yuugi almost immediately after finding out what, precisely, the other Yuugi does. He very much could say at this point "Well, I don't want anyone else to get hurt" and just leave Dark Yuugi where he lay, but ( ... )

omg! another amazing chapter *sniffles

I'm so happy he finally go this other self back. that whole journey through there mind to get the other yugi back was awesome. Yugi tried ss hard to get him. and when he was finally back that whole conflict was great.

Heh, I really like the idea of an "I will go through hell and ridiculous obstacles in order to get you back, but god damn it will you chew with your mouth closed? GOD!" kind of scene.

(That and it makes the whole 'rainbows and unicorns and kittens' of their later interactions much more sought after, and earned.)
