duel 11. video (cw: death or dying)
「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.」

「He'd be a hypocrite if he judged her.」
no subject
[even though she's increasingly convinced that no one else from her world will ever show up]
no subject
Donna, right? I'll keep in mind, just in case.
「Nope, there is no stop-caring button, unfortunately, or fortunately...」
no subject
Donna Hayward. About my height, brown hair, blue eyes, real pretty. Will probably look freaked out by everything. We're a long way away from Twin Peaks.
[fortunately]
no subject
Isn't that how everyone looks when they get here?
「He remembers when he got here, it was weird.」
no subject
she laughs] I guess so. I at least had the advantage of knowing that demons and other realms were possible. Donna will be going into it cold.
[she remembers how she was, running around in her bloodstained lingerie, feeling completely out of her depth]
no subject
Don't you come from the same place?
no subject
We do. Let's just say that I'm a trouble magnet. Donna's not.
no subject
「Ah! Now she's speaking his language.」
Maybe that's why the Door hasn't brought her yet.
no subject
Yeah. Just typical teenage rebellion. Staying out too late, going to parties, stuff like that.
[but nothing about what she did when she stayed out too late or what kinds of parties she went to]
Maybe? I'd still like to see her again, one more time.
no subject
I truly hope you do. Don't lose hope.
no subject
I won't. Even though it's hard.
no subject
I'll be seeing you around, okay? Stay safe.
