"Here among the sewer rats, a breath away from Hell--"

[sinful_twilight]

Heh... it's almost amazing what a bit of rest can do. And a shower. I almost feel alive again. Or as close to it as ever, at any rate.

Nothing's gone to hell without Me, I hope?

Sorry for abusing your hospitality, Kaiba. I unfortunately felt I was needed elsewhere. Next time I'll try to leave you a nice note.

Unfortunately, something has gone to hell without you.

If you feel like teaming up with me to retrieve our Items from the Kaiba mansion, then let me know.

[sinful_twilight]

"Our" Items, Malik? They're all actually Mine, you realize. *bemused* You lost the Rod, didn't you? Careless of you.

[spawn_of_shadow]

Yes, yes of course. They're all yours. Tell yourself what you will.

But anyway, I did not lose the Rod, I was betrayed and it was stolen.

[sinful_twilight]

I already do.

*pleasantly* That's the problem, then - you actually trusted someone enough so that betrayal was possible. How'd it happen?

[kc_ceo]

I look forward to our next meeting.

There, aren't you pleased? That's the perfect opening for a vaguely ominous, though also vaguely pathetic, reply like "As do I".

[sinful_twilight]

Never thought you were so uncreative, Kaiba. I didn't know you missed My company so much.

[kc_ceo]

Well, the presence of the ring and eye goes a long way to make up for that absence. As does the video tape that shows what you had to do in order to escape.

[sinful_twilight]

*twitches faintly, unwillingly, at that* We all do what we must, don't we?

[white_kokoro]

I'm glad you're feeling all right.

[sinful_twilight]

*shrugs* Tolerably so, anyway.

[I'm really sorry I vanished! It's just that my network did the same thing... I'm "borrowing" someone else's network at the moment, you see, and it comes and goes. By all means delete this comment - I just wanted to apologise for disappearing :-)]
