Yugi Muto swivelled in his chair as he thought about what he was going to do today. He stretched his arms above his tri colour hair and let out a big huff as he faced his computer screen again. He pouted as nothing really sprung to his mind as he struggled to make the words flow in the song he received to sing. They were great lyrics although he felt that some of the words were misplaced but he didn't want to change them in case he got the other person annoyed. He still had plenty of time to complete it but he still didn't like being stuck. He moused over his schedule on his second screen and smiled that he would be live streaming with Yami this week.

He paused for a second when a messaged popped up from Yami to check YouTube for his teams latest video. It made him think for a moment as it was unusual that he would get a private message from Yami specifically to watch a video. Maybe to talk about future music projects or random topics that confused him out the recently but not a video. Intrigued he clicked on the YouTube icon and was greeted by the notification of the new Team Exodia uploaded a new video.

He had a channel of his own called HikaruYugi, 690,500 subs after 2 years, He wasn't exactly happy about his name on there but he was thankful that most people called him Hikaru online. He didn't feel quite ready to let people know who he was online just yet. Sept from his friends that helped him with music videos and were more than happy to show their faces online as they do so on their own channel.

Yugi chocked when he saw the title of 'Roommates do each-others make-up Part 1' straight to the point. He clicked on it hesitantly as he was unsure if it would be good for his health or not.


Yami was grinning into the camera "Hey everyone, Pharaoh here to let you know that this is going to be a rather weird video but you guys know that when it comes to any of our videos"

"For three videos we will be taking turns in getting our make-up done by the other two. Also a big thank you to Mai Valentine for providing us with make-up supplies and hopefully via her make-up tutorials we won't suck as much" He chuckled lightly "Link in the description for her videos. Check them out."

The video did a twirl out then a twirl in with the trio in it playing rock paper scissors. Yami and Malik played paper whilst Bakura played Rock meaning he lost. The video showed him groaning whilst the others cheered victory. A chibi Yami popped up on the screen to shove the frame out to the right while a chibi Malik brought in the next from the left.

In the background the music playing seemed to be an acoustic version of 'I know you want me' by Pitbull but it seemed to be Yami singing the lyrics. Bakura was grumbling to himself with arms crossed as Yami brushed his hair into a high pony tail and got a hair band to keep Bakura's eyes clear of his bangs. Malik was on the right laying out the make-up which could be seen on the top right corner so that the viewers could see the selection.

Malik was the one to speak next "Right you guys we aren't doing the natural look as we want you guys to actually see a difference in our actual faces. So for the snow white Bakura we are going with a vampiric look"

"Is it really necessary to go vampiric? Why not an understated goth?" Bakura mumbled as he looked over the dark colours that was picked out for him. "There looks like that's one too many…"

"Nonsense! And we want it to POP!" He made a popping noise with his mouth before Yami cut in.

"We'll do good, we promise, we know you'll make us look ten times worse if we ever made you look bad. Now close your eyes so we can begin!"

Bakura snorted but did as was asked with reluctance. The other two turned to the camera and did silent prays before looking over the selection and referring back every so often to one of Mai's video.

The video sped up from there showing Malik massage a primer over Bakura's face before Yami went in with using a foundation. Bakura sat as still as he could, the video had slowed down, but sneezed when loose powder was passed under his nose that it made the other two laugh. The video then sped up once again as Malik pencilled in the eyebrows and Yami contoured the cheeks to be more dynamic and blended it in. They then switched sides to do the same again. Once that was done the both went onto tackle the eyes by starting with eyeliner which caused the victim to let out a low growl whenever they pressed a little too hard. Other than that they covered the ball of the eyelid in the eyeliner then went onto pale red eye shadow in the cove. They took turns with the eyeliner and eye shadow as they were blending the two together, adding deeper red as they went and faded outwards. They went on to using gel eyeliner to add more shape towards the nose and outer corner of the eye but avoided the tears ducts with the black as they used a red eyeliner instead.

The two seemed to be enjoying that Bakura couldn't see what they were doing as they were making silent impressions of him. This was when the video would slow down if they did something silly but it would speed back up again when they fiddled with the make-up testing out on each other's skin and discussing which would be better. Then it slowed down once again when they had to ask Bakura to duck face. "What!"

He growled out causing the others to smile nervously Malik chocked out "It so that we can put the lipstick on you"

"I shall not duck face" His eyes were open enough to glare the two down and with the make-up it did make him a bit more menacing. However they still couldn't take him seriously enough when his bangs were peeking out every which way under the head band.

"Can you at least Ah for us?" Yami asked tentatively. Bakura regarded him silently before moving back into his position with his eyes closed and his mouth open in a Ah. The two phewed as they went on to darken the lips with eyeliner but added red lipstick which blurred it out. They looked him over trying to think of something else. Malik had been the one to leave the room for some reason. "Be right back!"

At that note Bakura opened his eyes again and looked at him questionably, "What in devil's name is he doing? Aren't you two finished?"

Yami shrugged but snickered when Malik returned with a little coffin. "Guess we weren't"

Malik handed over the little coffin with a grin on his face. "Put these in"

Bakura frowned down at the little coffin as he opened it to find two fangs inside. He pursed his lips but he figured since he gone so far already he might as well put them in. He thumbed the fangs onto his canines to complete the look. "Done?"

"Done!" The two cheered at their work as it appeared they were both pleased with it. Yami then preceded to take the head band off him and fluffed out the bangs back into their proper place but left the high pony tail in. "Perfect Fanfic vampire"

Even Bakura chuckled at that as now he was able to see himself properly as they had head his reflection and had to trust that the camera still had all three of them in shot. "Well I suppose I won't be digging out anyone's eyes out with eyeliner then."

Malik sighed out of relief and grinned "you guys better best be kind to me as well. I know how to use a curling iron" he taunted as he waved a finger back and forth.

"Ditto but I know where to hide the lucky charms" The two stared at him in horror as he smirked. "So better be gentle"

Bakura scoffed and went back to admiring himself a little in the camera. A chibi Bakura came down from the top pulling down three pictures beside each other showing a posing Bakura showing the make up in Full affect. Then faded out to a smirking Bakura taking the Vampire role to fan service level but with clothes on. He talked in his best hypnotic tone he could muster. "Like the video and subscribe for more antics between us three if you enjoyed"

He leaned in closer to the camera so that his honey coloured eyes were more visible and soul capturing. "You know you want too"


The video ended with some of Yami's more punk inspired music and three videos linking to other ones on their channel. It even had the three chibis of them in a dog pile with Yami on top sitting proudly.

Yugi smiled fondly at the video as the antics between the three never failed to make him laugh. Even though the video was mainly about what was happening to Bakura, Yugi was more focused on what Yami was doing the enter time. He hated to admit it but he felt a bit smitten towards the one dubbed Pharaoh on the channel and had been since he first found the channel 5 years ago when Team Exodia was still a baby.

He ran a hand through his hair before he decided to send back a reply to Yami about the video in private.

It was a rather unexpected video Pharaoh! But it was a nice treat to watch you guys do more real life stuff even though the situation might be different from what you actually do. Thief might actually be stealing some more hearts with that look though! Was that something you guys were planning on doing?

Either way I can't wait for yours and Scribers looks, bet you guys will look just as great, but I guess I can wait like everybody else for next Tuesday. Speaking of waiting, thank you for your patience on waiting on my singing audio, I haven't been quite happy with my tone but I should hopefully have it done for the stream this week! I hope you don't mind if I mess around with some of the wording but I'll try my best to keep it as pure as it was!

Thanks for the inspiration!

Hikaru~

He smiled as he sent it off and decided to get back to his project feeling inspired to get on with his work. He straightened his monitors, fiddled with his microphone and headset, and set up the recording software. He then went onto flick the switch that activated the light outside the study and down stairs in the shop to let his grandpa know that he was recording. He had went and got the lights when his Grandpa had interrupted too many good recording sessions that made him lose some great recordings. With them in it has happened less though there was odd times when the bulb wasn't working but luckily those happened during gaming and can be paused when interrupted.

With a deep breathe he opened his eyes and with determination he dug deep down inside to find a way to make the lyrics work and feel them through singing. Singing from the heart would make everything work out.


At the house of Team Exodia, the trio were in kitchen helping Bakura record his culinary series, they were still in make-up. Neither of them didn't really feel like taking it off after how long it took them to get the make-up done. Especially when it came to Yami as the make-up ticklish and he just couldn't keep still from the closeness of the other two when his eyes were closed. However that was for a later video.

Since he was staying with the Vampiric theme Bakura decided to change himself into a white shirt and a low V waistcoat. He had his sleeves rolled up for his cooking and had a towel hanging from his pocket for clean-up. He was actually beginning to enjoy role playing as a vampire, not that he was telling anyone else that, though the other two knew but just kept silent about it.

Yami was making sure that the camera on the tripod was recording the long shots properly whilst Malik recorded the close ups when they were called for. The Egyptian checked it from his laptop as there was three little go pros at the counter and cooker. So all system were good to go as Bakura went on to a Steak rib-eye recipe for his segment.

It didn't take too long for the cooking to finish as Bakura had become rather skilled and had the dish plated up in 17 minutes. However they went on to take some photos of the finished product and of Bakura eating it so that they could create a decent thumbnail when it came to editing and uploading the video for tomorrow.

They had already sorted out the rest of the week's videos recorded they just need to be edited and uploaded on the days. It was just with the make-up Bakura had decided that he use the pre-recorded culinary video for next week and do a new one with the make-up instead. The agreed to the whim as they themselves wanted to make new videos to do with their make-up.

Yami yawned behind his hand as Malik fussed over his writings for next Saturday. "If you guys don't need I'll be upstairs in the studio"

He got a dismissive wave from Malik and a nod from Bakura who appeared to be taking forty winks after having finished his meal completely. Yami smiled at his friends before heading to the stairs to go to the third floor. They had an open plan editorial room so that they could pounce ideas back and forth on what could work better. At the far end was a big enough room for their live streams and their fright night videos but to the right of the stairs they had a sound proof room for Yami's music. Though any of the rooms that had recoding taking place had sound pads on the walls to dampen the noise.

He entered the room and started off with his normal routine of picking up his acoustic guitar and tuning it up after pushing the computers on button. He strummed and tuned as he waited for the computer to boot up. He had a smile on his lips as he had received a notification on his mobile during the culinary recording that Hikaru had replied to him. He quite liked the little messages they sent one and other even if most have been about collaborations till recently. Where he had sent random messages now and again to see if he could get a conversation from the boy. It had paid off as the boy was too nice not too and would apologize if it took him awhile to reply to any of them.

A frown developed on his face as he tried to think of a way to get Hikaru's actual name, it had been plaguing him to know what it was but he never would try to force it out of the boy. Sighing he placed his guitar back on the stand and rolled himself over to the computer to check his messages. He scanned till he got to Hikaru's and smiled once again as he could sense the happiness in the message.

Yami wondered why Hikaru didn't use their proper names as their names are common knowledge but then again it might be because of online decency. He pouted as he read the message feeling a bit disappointed that his lyrics were causing the younger one some problems. He clicked the reply button as he straighten up in his chair to answer.

It'll be awhile longer till you see mine ;) as mine will be uploaded the week after Malik's. It was Hilarious to do even though I think the guys got upset with me but you'll get too see why in a fortnight =p Glad you enjoyed it and felt inspired and no it wasn't our intent for hearts to be stolen it was just a happy bonus if it happens. Though I hope yours weren't stolen but let me know if it happens when you see mine.

Mess around with lyrics to your heart's content! Sorry that they caused you trouble to begin with, I know how troubling it is when the music notes don't play nice so I can understand. I can wait patiently I've had to develop it when I am around the other two otherwise I wouldn't exactly have a team!

Yami

P.s I know this might be out of the blue but could I possibly ask for your name? No pressure but I have been curious for a while now and just thought to ask.

He hit send and nearly blanched when he realised what he had said in the message. Yami hoped to Ra that he didn't scare the younger one off with that blatant pick up line. He didn't mean it as such but when happy he was a bit of a flirt. He might have tested the waters at first but hadn't before went straight out with a comment such as that. He was just about to send another reply to apologize when he got one straight back.

Hi again! Aw man I dunno if I could wait that long but I suppose I just have too and no he didn't steal it. He's not my type but I'll let you know if you do when your video comes around =p

Great! I was worried you might be annoyed when I was finished and the lyrics weren't what you had originally intended but I take that weight off my shoulders and just worry about something instead. Speaking of friends and patience, I'm having to test my limits when it comes to my own, going out later to help them with their videos and with each one I'm probably going to end up closer to having a heart attack! Hmph but anyways…

My name… I suppose with how things have been going lately I guess I can tell you…

How about a guessing Game! It's been staring you in the face the whole time

Hikaru~

His heart stopped for amount before it soared, He flirted back and it was great! Yami sighed contently as he continued on with the message He didn't mean to ignore the middle part but he had caught the riddle and was confused by it. "It been in front of me this whole time?"

He scanned the message a few times and wondered why the g in game was capitalized. Had it been a clue? He frowned as he looked at the boys channel for a few minutes then landed on the username. HikaruYugi… Hikaru meant radiance whilst Yugi meant… Game!

Yugi! Is it Yugi?

He didn't exactly mean for it to be short and to the point without him signing off but he just had to know if he was right or not. A notification later and he quickly opened it.

You are correct Yami, My name is indeed Yugi =) but do you mind not sharing it around the internet please? I know it is in my username but not everyone has figured it out yet and I'm still pretty shy to the internet that's also why I haven't braved showing my face in any of my friends video or even my own. But! You can call me Yugi here if you don't mind me using Yami?

-Yugi

Yami punched the air as he relaxed with a grin on his face as he had a small victory. He still felt a bit silly that it had been in his face all this time but he still felt better for knowing now. His grin turned to a smile has he replied back.


I can understand not wanting to be known, I sometimes wish it, but I'm happy to know you and your name now and I promise not to say it to anyone else. So I'm glad you trust me with it! And yes call me Yami!

Bad timing now but I got a video to record as to not waste the make-up and I don't know how long it will stay on my face for =p. So I bid you a good day and that your friends keep you in one piece. If not then I might have to hunt them down and kick their behinds for it.

Good luck with the day ahead friend.

Yami-

Yugi was holding onto the table nervously as his face was red as a tomato he had no idea that he had the ability to flirt with someone. He rested his arms on the table to bury his head against them as he tried to rid himself of embarrassment. He felt too damn shy to be a flirt so he had no idea what brought it out of him. He had been stunned since the steal the heart comment that he had to respond back in kind. He knew he didn't have to but it felt right to do so. Letting out a heavy sigh he sat back up again with a small smile playing at his lips. It felt nice but it just wasn't something he was used too.

He tried to flirt before with the likes of Tea when he felt more mature to do so but it felt too weird after a while that he put it down to having no ability to do so. Humming a tune he replied back a Thanks and a good luck with his work before checking the time. He still had an hour before Joey and Tristan arrived to do whatever they had planned. Sticking out his tongue he donked himself on the head with a fist to get some silly thoughts out of his head.

Pursing his lips he checked that his recordings were saved correctly and turned off the computer. Disengaging himself from the work station he left the study to go to his bedroom to get some extra layers for that afternoons outing. It looked cold outside and he wanted to be prepared for whatever his friends had planned. He also got his own camera to take with in case there were a case to snap photos for his own videos. Two birds one stone so why not?

After gathering his things he trudged his way downstairs into the shop to see how his grandpa was doing. "Hey Grandpa!"

"Yugi – oh! Are you going out somewhere today?" Solomon asked surprised as he thought he knew the schedule Yugi kept and that it rarely changed.

"Yes Grandpa. Joey and Tristan had emailed to see if I could help them record today as they had an idea that required more than just themselves. Sorry that it pretty much last minute but what can you do when you get sudden inspiration?"

"Suppose you right my boy!" He chortled as he patted Yugi on the back "The amount of times you had it and couldn't get it done right away has left you frustrated. Guess we can't have the boys going through the ordeal"

Yugi groaned but smiled at his Grandpa as he seemed to be coping rather well today. "Everything been okay in the shop then?"

"owh yes! Though I think we need to check the sound proofing in that room of yours again as it appears that the sound has been leaking through and had gathered a bit of a crowd. Nothing but praise was said of course but I know you prefer your privacy so I shall see if we have any more door blankets that can be used." Solomon still a lint of laughter in his voice as he spoke but Yugi went crimson at the idea of people hearing as he made mistakes.

"Sorry for the noise but that would be great Grandpa thank you!" Yugi relaxed but stiffened when the door to the shop opened to reveal his two friends "What the…"

"Yugi!" Joey and Tristan clambered through the door in such silliest of outfits Yugi had no idea how to really describe them. "Are you ready for today bud?"

"I don't think I ever could be when it involves you two…"
