「It's been a while since he's made a video post in which he looks actually serious, he doesn't look sad for a change, just thoughtful.
When he finally speaks he does it uncharacteristically (for him) quietly, even though, firm.」
How do you deal with loss?
When people leave this place or, when you know you will never see someone you care for again?
When they pass away.
Do you try to forget about them... or... 「No, that thought actually hurts.」
What is that helps you to move on?
「If they do at all.
This has been in his mind ever since Maedhros and Celebrimbor were gone, and even way before. He didn't knew them personally, but he could see how much pain their departure had caused — only one person had made him feel that way, but it wasn't Yugi who left, it was him. Atem left them all and he cannot help but wonder, was he the cause of grief among his loved ones, the ones that survived him when he decided to give up his life, and then when he had to move on from the world of the living a second time?
He doesn't wish to think so highly of himself, but it's hard, specially when all his life the world did use to revolve around him. But he worries about those he left behind, they would be fine, wouldn't they? Heh, if only they knew he hasn't moved on at all, that he still talks to his partner in his head all the time... What a little hypocrite.」

Mokuba is gone.
「But Atem is sure he already knows. He doesn't expect a reply.」

But that's precisely what he did use to think when he lost his father, all he wanted was to make him proud, and... he really wishes that his friends, those he left behind just can move past it, he wants them to go on with their life, not that much make him proud, because no matter what they did, he'd be proud anyway. This was such a stupid, stupid question to make.」
You're right. I... am not sure why I forgot that.
「But he did, somehow. This place leaves a lot of time to think, that much is clear.」
Thank you --
「You.」

She catches that pause and smiles softly. Whoops.]
I'm Jo. Glad I could help.

I'm Atem.
「Surely he could have read that from the network names but, this is nicer.」
And, yeah, you did.

I'll talk to you later. Good luck.
