Duels are one thing, Other Me. [ Everything else...? Well...
Yugi will still stand by the fact that Atem is the better duelist. Yugi doesn't sell himself short in terms of strategy or knowing the game -- or any game. It's the confidence and air of being a commander that he lacks. All of that obviously comes from the fact that Atem is a Pharaoh and would command an entire kingdom. Something like that never goes away.
What about their situation isn't complicated? At first, he had no idea Atem existed. Then, he thought the spirit was another form of himself. Then, no, is the spirit of a Pharaoh that lived three thousand years ago. They are two souls that share one body through a mystical item and have fought Gods and Men with sinister intentions. They've fought against people who have been broken by magic. Everything is complicated, but, why make this situation even more so?
He turns so he can properly face Atem. Even if he's slumped over, shoulders hunched, and looks to be exhausted? This is a conversation he'd rather look him eye-to-eye for. ]
I know you have some of my memories and know how I feel... but I really haven't explained everything. I've just been hoping that context can fill in the blanks. [ Yugi glances down. ] High school is three years long, and graduation marks when you've completed your education. After that, you step into adulthood. People go their own separate ways and get involved in their new lives... and people tend to change.
[ He drapes his arms in his lap and sighs. ] We both know everyone has something they want to do that will take them far away - except us. We've talked about staying at the game shop, and running it with Grandpa since... [ It's rather obvious that his grandfather can't keep the shop going forever. ] You said it yourself. Luna is going to go away but keep coming back. You love each other... and so if we're going to keep being partners after all of this...
[ Yugi leans forward just a bit. ] We need to talk about how to handle that. You already know where I stand on the matter, Other Me. If you're going to be here, then you have every right to live along side us. That means if you want to spend time by yourself in control, or time with Luna? That's alright, and I don't mind. I think you should.
I know Luna wants to spend time with you too. Neither of you will ask, even though I'm okay with it. That can't be how it goes after I graduate.
