Tch! Idiot! I can appreciate a good view without getting turned on.

[obeytherod]

... [His eyes flick downward rather blatantly at that. Just checking!]

Oy, oy, you're the one who made it sound funny.

[fluffydeathdealer]

[No, Malik, he's not turned on just by your legs. Though he does look a bit uncomfortable at that, stepping back.]

Oy, oy! I'm not that bad, am I?

[obeytherod]

[Malik blinks, looking thrown off by the other man's reaction.]

Huh? No, you look fine.

[fluffydeathdealer]

...that wasn't what I meant. [Sigh.] Honestly, Malik... do you think me that much of a pervert?

[obeytherod]

...Do you really want me to answer that? [Because judging by that reaction, he's fairly certain you don't.]

[fluffydeathdealer]

Bastard-! [He growls.] Fine, then! I'll be a perfect gentleman, then!

[Which means you're not getting any sexy fun times, Malik.]

[obeytherod]

Hey! I didn't say anything, so you can't get mad!

[He waves his hand carelessly.] Besides, kehkeh, I don't like you because you're a perfect gentleman.

[fluffydeathdealer]

Oh? I'm quite sure I can get mad from the inferred insult too... [He looks mollified slightly.]

And here I thought you'd prefer someone as shy as my host!

[obeytherod]

Maybe I was inferring the opposite of that, you don't know! [He obviously wasn't. Malik's just teasing at this point.]

And if I preferred your host, I would be going on a date with him.

[fluffydeathdealer]

...!!!!

[That's right... Even though the two had kissed, nothing more had happened as far as he knew.]

That's right... I guess you would be.

[obeytherod]

Ugh...really, Bakura? You were serious back there?

[Judging by his reaction just then, it sure seemed like it! Malik was a bit insulted.]

[fluffydeathdealer]

[Bakura grins in turn, amused.]

Don't be a fool. I didn't assume you were interested in him. And I know he was kind of unnerved about possibly being interested in you. But I can't imagine you two going on a date anywhere, somehow.

[obeytherod]

...He's what? Since when!

[Malik's not sure how he should be taking this. Bakura let something like that slip so easily...! He could probably use it to his advantage, actually...

He's just not sure what for, or if he wants to.]

[fluffydeathdealer]

Don't flatter yourself. He enjoyed that little kiss of yours, so he can't tell if he likes you or if he just likes kissing.

The little fool even tested it out with one of his friends - the annoying hyperactive one - but then decided it wasn't conclusive and now he's even more confused.

[Smirking, he gathers up the rest of the food they're taking, fastening the bag up.]

[obeytherod]

I can't imagine enjoying a kiss from just anybody...Ryou must be more like you than you think.

[Not that he was trying to flatter himself. It was just an observation.

With Bakura ready, Malik gets to his feet and heads over to the door to wait.]

[fluffydeathdealer]

Who knows? He's too shy to test out his theory on anyone else.

[He follows him with an amused bark of laughter, heading out into the hall.]

...damn, I'm all turned around over here.

[obeytherod]

...

[Malik has nothing more to say on that, so he'll just be the one leading Bakura down the hall.]

It's the same as before. We just follow the hall down until we get to the front doors.

[fluffydeathdealer]

Tch. It's confusing, switching sides of the building.

[Despite that muttered complaint, he follows Malik, falling into step beside him.]

But you know, Ryou is apparently the reincarnation of part of my soul. It's only natural that he might have the same tastes.

[obeytherod]

...What? What made you come to that conclusion? I mean, your past self and Ryou do look a lot, but still...it seems too convenient.

[Then again, with Kaiba and Yugi...reincarnation seemed to be nothing but convenient at times.]

[fluffydeathdealer]

He's the one that brought it up, actually. I guess being from that time means you remember the mythology better.

But I've never found a body in three thousand years that fits so well. Between the timing, the similarities, and the way his body and this one both feel... it's pretty likely. Even their voices are pretty similar. It's too many coincidences.

[He shakes his head carelessly.]

At any rate, he's only part of me. Since the part that retains the personality was sealed in this thing... he's little more than a remnant of the past.

[obeytherod]

...I guess there's a point where it's so convenient, it can't be a coincidence.

[He inclines his head a bit, thinking back on some of the things he'd had to read back in the tomb.]

They say people who were close in a past life will be close in ones thereafter as well. It makes sense that Ryou would be around Yugi and Kaiba, if you believe in that.

[fluffydeathdealer]

Heh heh... except our relationships are quite the opposite from one another. How odd things become! From enemies to friends in just three millennia.

[His voice filled with amusement, he looks away thoughtfully.]

[obeytherod]

We're never really guaranteed to be the same person in our next lives. [He smirks, giving Bakura a sly look. Malik was knowledgeable on the subject, even if he had little interest in it.]

The Akh is rarely reincarnated, and the Akh of criminals don't have a chance at all.

You're lucky you were sealed in the Ring. [He looks away, expression becoming pensive.] We wouldn't have met otherwise.

[fluffydeathdealer]

Yeah... I'm aware. My soul would have been consumed otherwise. In a way, this prison became a true blessing.

[He doesn't care how soft that sounds.]
