Duelists. [He waves the card at him again.] He won a big tournament back at Duelist Kingdom and now he's pretty much the top duelist there is.

[inheritedburden]

...So he's a king... because he won a game of cards?

[trying to comprehend this what]

[fluffydeathdealer]

Not a game. A tournament. They invited the top duelists of the world to compete and he won. He even defeated the creator of the game!

[And him.]

So he became the king.

[inheritedburden]

But because of a card game thing.

[fluffydeathdealer]

That's right! We don't have many martial arts tournaments around, but Duel Monsters tournaments are far more common.

[inheritedburden]

...

Your world is weird.

[fluffydeathdealer]

What happened to our agreement that both of our worlds were weird? You don't have to reiterate it.

[inheritedburden]

Sorry, it's just.... really really weird that you make kings just 'cause someone's good at a game!

[fluffydeathdealer]

A king. He's the only one. There's nobody out there that can compare!

[He licks his lips, smiling. Ah well... he'll help the kid out just this once...]

It's not like he got anything out of it but money and prestige, anyway.

[inheritedburden]

Wow... he must be really, really good, then.

[Tenar kicks his legs a little, twisting a bit in his position.]

So it's kinda like if you win at the Martial Arts tournaments.

[fluffydeathdealer]

Beats me... I've never been to one of those.

[Aw. Now he's out of beef jerky.]

He's the best.

[inheritedburden]

You sound like you either really like him or really hate him.

[Yes, you are. Because Tenar's got the last bag, so nyah nyah!]

[fluffydeathdealer]

We're old rivals. Ever since Duelist Kingdom.

[You jerk, Tenar! See if he gives you any of his crisps!]

[inheritedburden]

Ah, that makes sense! So it's kinda both?

[He doesn't want your stinky crisps. They've got old man all over them.]

[fluffydeathdealer]

Hm... Maybe. It's complicated.

[Then he'll have them all to himself! He didn't want to share anyway.]

[inheritedburden]

Why?

[Sharing is for wussies!]

[fluffydeathdealer]

You wouldn't understand.

[Clearly your mother taught you no manners.]

[inheritedburden]

Why's that?

[She taught him plenty of manners, thank you. Usually at knifepoint.]

[fluffydeathdealer]

[Gods, you're annoying... asking so many foolish questions.]

Because it's none of your business how I feel.

[inheritedburden]

...Alright.

[He shrugs a little, able to pick up the annoyance, and just goes back to munching the jerky in silence.]

[fluffydeathdealer]

[That Pharaoh... As if I'd ever feel liking for him. Some day, I'll bury him in the darkness of Hell...]

So Shade-kun told you all my dirty little secrets, then?

[inheritedburden]

I dunno. He said you were a creep and a ghost in the Ring, and that you're using Ryou's body...

I think that was it.

[fluffydeathdealer]

'Creeper' is the word he uses, I think. There's a difference.

[A subtle one.]

If that's all he said, then I guess that's fair. Though I prefer 'spirit' to 'ghost'.

[inheritedburden]

Why, was he supposed to say something else?

[He'll try to remember to use the word spirit for you then, Bakura. But you're still a freaky ghost.]

[fluffydeathdealer]

No. I just wanted to make sure he wasn't slandering me. Shade-kun doesn't like me all that much, after all.
