"I don't accept this," Yami hissed, staring at his reflection, and the unseen boy behind him. "Kaiba, of all people? The person that's tried to get you killed more times than I can count?"

I don't really get it either, the boy's thoughts answered, and Yami could tell that they had a sense of a shrug. Clearly the child wasn't thinking. But I can't help how he makes me feel.

"Well, you're not going to be feeling him if I can help it," Yami sighed, tearing his eyes away. "I won't allow it."

And why exactly do you have such a problem with it?

"One, Kaiba does not play fair, and you know it, Yugi. He could be using this as a way to do something-"

Or, maybe he has a heart, you know you've been trying to convince everyone of that for years!

"Two, I share this body as well as your memories, and it is not a fun thing to be fantasising about-" He stopped as his face flushed.

What do you mean, not 'fun'? There's evidence that supports the contrary… It's called the sheets.

"Ahem, teenage body!"

Yugi snickered. So then, you should be thanking me. It's like a free-

"Do NOT say it."

Like a free porn site. And you don't even have to clear the history.

"… You're disgusting." Yami sighed and ran a hand through the spiky hair they shared. "Yugi-"

I'm still not entirely sure why you have a problem with this. He hasn't tried to kill us in at least a year.

"I'm sure it's coming, he just has to get the right idea to do so… You have no idea how much I wish I had my own body right now."

You don't like sharing my body?

"Not when I'm on the receiving end of your fantasies!"

They're not that bad…

"No, but I don't have the same feelings. And it is very strange."

Not nearly as strange as having five-thousand year old memories plague me every time you're upset or brooding.

"I do not brood."

You do so, 'Unknown Pharaoh'…

Yami hissed between his teeth. "Don't test me right now, Yugi. It's only going to end badly."

So how are you going to stop me, anyway?

"Oh, I have my ways…"

Well, whatever ways you have, they'll have to wait. Jou and I have plans to duel tomorrow... Remember?

"Well, I guess he's duelling me instead."

What?!

"I'm taking over tomorrow as well."

But I don't need you to-

"Maybe I just want a day out… Ah, again. I get stir-crazy trapped in that puzzle, you know."

I'd believe that if you actually had any interest in doing anything other than saving the world or retrieving your memories. You're just being an ass.

"Probably. Unfortunately, you're just going to have to deal."

This is a violation of my body's rights!

"Flooding my mind with your vulgar imagery is a violation of my rights!"

You can't stay away from him forever and you know it…

There was something sinister about the way he implied the thought that made Yami worry.

He was proud too, of the way Yugi was adopting his strategies to mess with his opponents.

But still worried.
