[Ryou is crying, and crying out -- it hurts to see, and to hear. Atem's not enjoying doing this to him.
But he's resolved. It would be worse, if Atem didn't do this, if he didn't commit. There's no enough yet, not from Ryou. Just a wrong answer -- and a respectful tone. So, he'll only add two more strikes on.
His voice betrays none of the mercy in his heart. It curls through the air around Ryou's ears like smoke.]
Round two: penalty.
[Eight strikes, in the same alternating pattern. One-two, three-four, five-six, seven-eight. There's less recovery time allowed, now, before the next demand comes:]
Who disarmed the traps, and told the humans that their feelings of security would always be false?
