[It's...bizarre. To even sleep at all after that, but at some brief point in the night, he must sleep, because when he sleeps, he remembers.
Step over my corpse and move forward.
Isn't that just a cherry on top of this whole situation. But he came back. Lucina. Tsurugi. Miki. Chitose. They won't. Not now. Maybe it's as simple as their death being representative of their souls, their spirits, but--
Move forward. Challenge your fate. He has to keep up appearances. Can't fail now. Can't falter. Can't let Yuugi--the Other Yuugi--the Pharaoh--down. Can't let Mokuba down. No matter what. It can't be for nothing, and it can't be all hot hair. He has to do something. He has to keep trying.
Kaiba's in as much gear as he has today, with his tight pants and a card-shaped locket around his neck. In the cafeteria early on, he's...oh dear. He seems to have a book that's on fire sitting on one of the tables. Standing there waiting. Also glowering. At the book. It looks like it might have been a weird pop-up book at some point? So if there's a sprinkler system, guess we'll find out, right? He's also added a few items to his yard sard if anyone is interested, but uh...
Upstairs, because now there's an upstairs, he pokes around the zero-g room, playing with the buttons and poking his head in, but he doesn't seem to quite trust it enough to take a leap inside yet. He looks at the other rooms, thinks they are ridiculous and the trash compactor to be ominous, and ends up in the diner flipping through the jukebox. They have jrock. So that's a thing.
And in his room, he makes a point to finally sit down and have a conversation.]
CECE. That's your designation, right? Tell me, do you know how to play Duel Monsters?
