My dear Bakura, you just don't understand.
We are not truly tangible.
You are just a spirit, inhabiting a reincarnation of your past self; whereas I am but a fragment of my outside character's mind, materialized and made from his hatred and despair. And I, too, inhabit his body as you inhabit your host's.
But here is the difference: my outside character created me, and you are nothing but a parasite. Oh, now don't scowl at me like that. I'm only speaking the truth. So you see, we are obviously not true humans. We are but fragments in our hosts' minds, each with a different purpose.
What am I leading to with this, you ask? Well, funny you should ask that, my dear Bakura. It's just that I was thinking about how much we are alike, yet how different we are. And you know what? I'm actually quite attracted to you. No, no, not like that. I purely meant it in terms of the fact that you...intrigue me. Yes, I suppose that would be right. Besides, how could I feel such a thing as love? First of all, I am made from pure hatred and despair, as I had mentioned earlier. Second, neither of us are human, as I had also stated. How could we possibly feel something so human such as love? But perhaps if we were truly tangible, that would make us human, and allow us to feel that way. Truly.
But that's not saying that I'd ever love you. How could I? You're arrogant, foolish, and...Oh, I'm no better, you say? Well, I suppose you're right. I can't deny something like that. I'm not as bad, though. Now, now, no need to threaten people.
Well, I suppose I should be on my way. I have some things to do concerning my vengeance against the pharaoh. Maybe you'll get out of this so-called shadow realm one day. Or not. Oh, you swear you will, do you? Well, we'll see about that. But that will only make me attracted to you more if you do.
And no, I don't believe that I meant that in terms of intrigue that time.
(A/N:) Hey, some psychoshipping. Sort of.
This was an impulsive fic I decided to jot down before going to bed. I randomly came up with a single line and decide to turn it into a whole little fic before I lost the idea. I hate losing ideas.
I was originally-kinda-sorta going to make this completely canon, but eh, I haven't written any psychoshipping since Only Hate. So I thought why not.
It's my first time writing in this style and perspective, I think. It's pretty fun and interesting to write this way. I think reading A Tale of Two Cities influenced how I worded things a bit. -_-; Which is funny because I only paid attention to the beginning and end.
ANYWAY. Hope you liked it. Despite its shortness.
