I don't like Tage, either...she ran off at the first sign of trouble, and left a lot of her followers behind....many of them got killed by angry monsters last month because of that.

[As Atem goes on, he's more musing to himself than anything else.]

The Tagevalgten...it's a complicated situation. It'd be better if they didn't exist as an organization....but I understand why they turned to that kind of philosophy.

[vroomkeeper]

Don't worry. We'll take good care of the ones that remain.

[ If they can just get more than four established cultists and one teenager from town who likes being play-chased by "Richard" to listen to them.

Marik chuckles, his head full of plans, then grows quiet. He draws the blanket around himself. Resists the urge to lean on the Pharaoh. That would be disrespectful.

But the day is catching up with him, and he's flagging. ]

OH MY GOD RS'S BELLA IS IN THE SUBCULT?? omg

[knifemonopoly]

[That's not ominous at all!! But Atem actually does trust the Ring-Spirit to look out for the guys under his care. They're better off with RS than they were with Tage.

But he does not trust that Marik won't pass out on his couch. Atem had better get the guy home before he's too tired to operate a motorcycle.]

You've had quite a day. I wish I could tell you it won't always be like this, but...since that's the way things are, it's even more important to get proper rest!

You're still staying with Noa, right? Can you make it back on your own?

the mods said "5 humans, half are traitors", so, 2 real converts, 2 traitors, 1 fangirl....

[ Can he....He thinks so. He's tired, but...riding always makes him feel better. He'll ride his bike, and then....

Then....He'll let the back of his mind figure out "then." He's brilliant, he can do things like that. ]

I couldn't trouble you further. [ Marik pushes himself forward, roots around for his clothes. ] Prepare for the Duel. I'll do the same.

amazing.

[knifemonopoly]

[Yes, Marik, please put your shirt back on.

Atem doesn't say that, though. He just nods -- and he'll see Marik out the door, once he's clothed and gathered up. Drive alert arrive alive, pal.]

[vroomkeeper]

[ Who the hell do you think he is?! He's fine!

He only gets honked at three times, even, which means he's having an especially uneventful night.

Marik heeds none of it, however. Lots on his mind. ]
