I...um.

[Well. He didn't expect Atem to latch onto that so soon, but really Ryou shouldn't have expected different.

...Does he want to talk about Marik? That's...really a loaded question. He has to roll it around in his foggy brainspace, consider whether that's the thing he wants to do at this juncture.

As he watches more of those red and black scales glide onto the bed, smooth and pretty and dangerous...Ryou remembers something from much earlier in the month.]


I was scared of your scales...you remember, right?

[Was. Still is...kind of intimidated...but being around them for a month made it easier.

But he's too tired to be traumatized by Battle City right now. He's also busy being traumatized by the whole rift thing, so...no time like the present. All the same, there's a distant look in his eye, like he doesn't...really want to associate with this time in his life.]


I'm not sure...if Marik told you himself. But he had a hand in it. Indirectly, I think...I don't know.

I don't remember it all...

[He pauses, glances at Atem sidelong again.]

...We could talk about something else if you would prefer instead. But I can't reach what I found in Rota, and anyway, I...I don't mind talking about this for a little while.

I owe you that much after how you found us.
