Kaiba chuckled as he has trapped Atem in a cage. “You won’t get out now.”

It was supposed to be a normal day.  Why do things always happen on a normal day?

Atem was used to being invited for a duel at one of Kaiba Corp.’s many arenas, but he certainly wasn’t used to suddenly being entrapped in a cage upon arrival.  He glared through the metal bars at his unexpected captor, his deck and duel disk still at the ready for the duel that he wasn’t sure was still happening.

It had occurred so quickly and with so little warning that Seto Kaiba was left speechless for more than a few seconds as his mind attempted to make sense of what had just happened. Amelda…he’d kissed him? Even just attempting to admit that it had happened seemed to be taking a while to process. Why? Why would he want to give him a kiss in the first place? Was this because of the way in which he had been teasing the redhead ever since receiving his gift of the infinity promise ring? Was this simply some type of payback and was he now looking like a fool for just how flustered he was looking after such a quick kiss that no doubt held no meaning? He blinked slowly and came to the only conclusion that made sense. If Amelda wished to play with fire then he was only going to get burned.

“You call that a kiss?” he smirked as he grabbed hold of the other males arm, pulling him closer before pinning him against the wall as his lips claimed his, much more forceful and demanding in nature than the quick peck that Amelda had given to him.

He’d. He’d... completely missed, actually. Blame it, blame all of it on the champagne, but Amelda was just as surprised by their lips brushing together, quick to stumble backward--right into a wall and away from the errant affection. Or, so he’d thought. Caught up in a daze of his own, Amelda hardly even noticed Seto’s pause, a dumb, albeit bright expression worming its way onto his face. This was silly. He’d missed! If he were sober, it wouldn’t have been so funny. But he missed!

In the future, a wizened Amelda would have known exactly why starting to laugh was the wrong thing to do. Yet, shortly pinned in place, in the present stood a much less self-aware Amelda--breath stolen with a muffled mmf! And here he’d almost wanted to answer that question! Instead, laughter still lingering on his lips, the redhead tried to wrap his arms around Seto’s waist. Even if he wasn’t quite sure what was going on--or frankly what had gotten into Kaiba!--a kiss was a kiss, right? He should enjoy it. Maybe.

"It's called Dragonflight, and it's the first book of the series." he hummed softly, setting the book down on Seto's desk. "I try to read everything that catches my eye. So I guess a lpt of weird stuff gets picked up, too~"

He jumped off from the edge of the stage that he had just parachuted down onto, fire still flaring up around the outside of the dueling arena as he gave a soft laugh towards the accusation to be thrown his way. 

“And since when have I ever did anything and not put extra effort into it? The audience enjoyed the show - that’s all that should really matter”

He paused for a moment as he took off the safety gear he’d been wearing - mostly at his brothers request - before he turned back around to face the annoying blonde.

“Could it be that you were worried about me?” 

Jounouchi let his face curl into a grimace, not about to go admitting that he might have been slightly worried about Kaiba for a second there. What did he care if Kaiba went and broke his neck or set fire to himself or something!?

He didn't care.

"Like I'd be worried about you! I was more worried about me! Warn me next time you're going to be surrounding me in fire and you literally falling from the sky! I thought the idea was not to make me fall off the stage and embarrass myself while Kaibacorp's sponsoring me!" Jounouchi berated Kaiba, who he was sure was trying to kill him to get out of sponsoring him.

Torturing the reincarnation of the stuffy priest was just one of the few things that could brighten the spirit’s day. Tipping over pots of pencils, moving things out of his reach, removing a cord that enabled wifi connection and plugging it back in before he went to investigate… It was really far too easy to rile up Seto Kaiba, and it was becoming more and more of a joy to watch him get annoyed.

Today was the day she made her presence known and waited, fully materialised, sitting on his desk and playing with the Blue-Eyes paperweight.

Kat nodded with a smile. She knew that he didn’t watch but she couldn’t help herself. Everything was so exciting. “ Done and done. I checked twice of course”.  

She put down another file, turning it so it was parallel to the edge of the desk. “ We just need your signature here.”

♛⎥⎥.:𝔇𝔞𝔯𝑘𝔫𝔢𝔰𝔰      The throne room was empty at the moment beside’s his fellow Priests that were by his side. The awkward silence that filled the room as he sat there, not even the guards made a movement or shift in their position. Something had to be wrong, this wasn’t right. Normally there some type of chaos heading towards him or worse the village. His priests shift and look at him as the sound of footsteps filled the void of silence, something was on it’s way in and nothing had prepared him for this. His ears strained to hear the footsteps following closer to the doors that were closed in front of him. 

      The footsteps stop and silence filled the void again, everyone in the room suddenly tensed and watched patiently but nervously at the door waiting for whatever had come through the fabric of space and time. Soon the doors creaked open and most of the guards were prepared for whatever was to come. In stepped in a man with a white trench coat black turtle neck and black pants that came short of his boots that made a sound every time the hell hit the floor. A blur of brown hair fluttered as the man walked towards him. Nothing of the sort was more distinct than those piercing blue eyes that made his blood run cold. Could it be? This was not a threat from another time more of a man he hadn’t expected to arrive... It would be the only...

Seto Kaiba...

        Standing as soon as the man stopped, his priest’s tense by the imposter who had a different aura around him. Turning his head to one of his priests he nodded and gave a sign to leave the room. No, hesitation was given as they left the room along with the guards that were still worried for their dear pharaoh. Soon his eyes landed upon those cold blue eyes and slowly began to walk forward and down the stairs from his throne. Only coming to a stop once he was only a few feet away from him.

‘ Kaiba... ‘

        The single name came through his lips as his cape fluttered behind him slightly due to the light wind from the open door. His crimson eyes never leaving the taller males blue eyes as he opened his mouth to speak,
