Strategy 109: Bad dog no biscuit [Video]

[shutupandduelme]

[Kaiba looks pretty bad. Exhausted, a bit banged up from being tied to a half-demon in a footrace, and as stone-faced as a statue. Anyone who knows him could probably tell that this really wasn't a good time. The locket is still gone from his neck. No mention of Jounouchi's name or anything, not even a look at the camera.You know, your sister was

Dueling with these circumstances is understandable, but you didn't have to bring her into it.

[Pause]

You might also want to do something about yourself before then.

Stop me from what?

[Locked // Extremely Difficult to Hack]

[shutupandduelme]

This nonsense about worrying about me.

The issue will be resolved no matter what. If you're going to be concerned over anything, you might want to direct it towards that sorry nobody.

[Locked // Extremely Difficult to Hack]

[note_atem]

I never said I was worried about you.

[lol he is of course but he hadn't said anything about it]

And like I said, Jounouchi doesn't want my help or anything from me. He's not talking to me.

Hn. [He doubts that, why bring up his health otherwise.]

Make him talk to you if it burns so. You have at least that much claim after all the times you've saved him from being cut down like the trash he is. I fully expect you or Yuugi will step in his place once again in this conflict as well.

He's not trash. And it's not my place in this fight. I have no intention of doing it. You two will solve it on your own.

[His tone is extremely blank right now.]

[A scoff.] He's less than trash. Who else would take such a thing from a child? That was Mokuba's gift to me that he's got his grubby paws on.

He is not solving anything. He'll lie back and take it by the end of this.

I don't agree with what he did in the slightest but I can understand the rash acting out he did based on hurt. It doesn't excuse him at all, but I get it.

It doesn't make him trash, just hasty and childish. It'll be over soon enough anyway.

[His voice is ice cold.]...Less than trash. It was Mokuba's gift to me. I woke up from the coma with it.

No mutt looking for a pat on the head and a biscuit is going to such a thing from me.

I understand what you're feeling. But I'm nowhere in this fight. Just take care of yourself. I'll be around when it's over.

[Locked // Extremely Difficult to Hack]

[shutupandduelme]

Tch. Don't assume I'm looking for your support.

But I will warn you now, if I find out you know something and are keeping silent, you will suffer along with him.

[Locked // Extremely Difficult to Hack]

[note_atem]

I said I didn't agree with what he'd done. On top of that he's not talking to me.

What makes you so distrustful of my intentions?

[Locked // Extremely Difficult to Hack]

[shutupandduelme]

You've finally learned to keep quiet recently. It doesn't hurt me to get the warning out of the way first, so I may act if necessary.

[Locked // Extremely Difficult to Hack]

[note_atem]

That's not what that was about!

[Snap out of nowhere.]

[Locked // Extremely Difficult to Hack]

[shutupandduelme]

..Nice to see you waking up, finally. Though I don't know why it's to brush off a great success.

[Locked // Extremely Difficult to Hack]

[note_atem]

It wasn't success when it appears I've broken any weak bond of trust I'd established in the first place!
