[He nods, shutting his eyes.]

I'm very happy.

He's the person I wanted to see again the most...it was terrible, realizing he wasn't still in my heart. And when I found out we weren't the same, all I wanted was to be able to talk to him about it. I wanted to know what he thought...what he wanted to do, now that we knew the truth! I didn't know what it would change, and I couldn't find out, not as long as I was the only "Yugi" here.

[His eyes open, and he looks forward, resting his hands on the kitchen counter.]

Now...I'm not. I can't use his name anymore, even if the face is something I can't really help! I can't do to him what the other spirit did to you -- I don't want him to have to fight me to be recognized as himself.

So, I'll give him his name back, and take my own.

[Even if it feels too big, even if it feels like a change he's not certain he's ready for, even if it'll mean a shift in who he is and how he sees himself, not to mention owning up to his friends about it...it's the right thing to do.]
