May 23 (scribbled hurriedly and excitedly)
Won a duel against Yuto today yay! It was very hard though because all his traps are so tricky :( I had to banish The Skylark* and bring it back like ten times. I also need to come up with a better summoning chant for her... But Shun lost the bet we made so that means he's buying me ice cream!
May 25 (jotted down before being called for)
Someone challenged Kaito head-on while we were hanging out today. Of course, Kaito swept the floor with him. I don't think Shun was impressed haha. The guyβs attitude was pretty cocky. And his strategy was...interesting to say the least. (Maybe he bricked?)
May 28 (short and sweet)
I'd say my favorite colors are blue and gray. I like purple a lot too. Yellow's growing on me I think.
May 31 (in the last minutes before heading to bed)
Shun and I went for a walk today and saw a robin nest. There were some chicks in it too! Birds are so pretty and they sing the most beautiful songs. Iβll have to ask Shun if he wants to go to an aviary sometime. Birds like him. The ones in the park come up to him all the time, itβs very cute. He doesnβt seem to mind their attention though. They only like me when I give them food :(
June 7 (handwriting shaky)
It's been a bad an alright day. Slept in late, had some yogurt for breakfast, read for a bit. I've realized I'm not very exciting. I don't know why Shun puts up with me. I think I'm running out of things to write in here. Everything hurts. Maybe I'll go take a nap, and then I won't be so tired after that.
"Hey, give that back!" The raven-haired girl whines when the journal is pulled from beneath her pen. "That has classified information!"
"I called your name about three times before this." The sharp-eyed boy shuts the journal in his hand before tapping her on the head with it, which is followed with a faint "ow."
"Fine, sorry. What is it?"
"We're supposed to go watch Ruri's duel today. And you're the one who usually likes to leave early."
"Oh, right..." He hands the journal back to her, which she accepts and drops back into her lap.
"Having second thoughts?"
"Just thoughts in general I guess." She rests her chin in her palm, eyes turned downward.
βDo you want to stay here?β A hand reaches out to brush back dark hair out of her face.
βI want to go. I do. Itβs justβ¦do you think Iβmββ The sentence dies in her throat.
βI think youβre thinking too much again. If you need someone else to listen to them, all you have to do is ask.β She nods, pulling together enough courage to lift her eyes to meet his again; enough to last just a little longer.
βOkay, letβs go.β Her journal is set aside before she gets to her feet. He turns to lead the way, but there is no room to take a step when arms wrap around his waist, pulling him back to her.
βThank you.β Whisper soft, breathed warmly, twinged with remorse. Only a moment before she lets him go and falls into step at his side like nothing happened at all.

How do you know if you're in love with someone?
comm by @/scarameownya! I think he has some kind of telepathic link because I feel like I gave the most vague descriptions yet received the most amazing art! You don't even want to know how much I freaked out seeing the sketch for the first time. Reblogs are okay but please do not save or claim as your own.
*Ancient Feathered Fortress Skylark is my ace monster. Itβs effect lets it banish itself to lower another monsterβs ATK and then return to the field later
