I need more grief of Atem. Atem who made it to the afterlife and is overjoyed to be with his family again. Atem who, after the relief and joy wears off, finds himself feeling empty. Atem who spends hours walking around courtyards, talking to family and friends, playing games, and can't find anything to fill the emptiness with. Atem who realizes that his emptiness is caused by the absence of a certain someone.
He asks people about it, if it was normal to feel so much grief and loss over someone who he only knew for two years. He gets mixed responses but an overall 'It'll get easier with time'. Except it didn't. The emptiness slowly starts to eat away at him. It felt like his stomach was eating away at itself, but the starvation couldn't be satisfied with food. He needed Yugi. His other half. His other heart.
