ladybug_archiveI hate nausea. I absolutely hate it. I had a mild spell of it early in the day, but then it left after I took a nap before we left to investigate lots and such. It came back after we returned, and it came back with a vengeance. Lovely. So I dozed for a bit and it went away again, at least enough that I didn't feel so sickly. It hovered in the background while I ate an apple and then came downstairs, and now it finally seems to be receeding.
While we were out, I decided to use a coupon I'd acquired for Borders when I'd made my previous purchase there. The Borders in Provo stays open till eleven, which is great because we didn't get there till ten-thirty, after all was said and done. **envious.** Ours closes at nine. -__-; Anyway, I bought two volumes of YGO manga: five and six of Duelist Kingdom. Lots of Seto! Those volumes include his rooftop duel with Yugi and Seto's duel with Pegasus. Of course, they're slightly different from the anime, but I love them anyway. ^^ It feels good to reminisce about some of the most intense moments of Duelist Kingdom. Those episodes with Seto were among the first I ever recorded.
I was also rewatching the first two Grand Prix episodes the other day, and I noticed something. When Siegfried clicks the mouse button, he clicks the right one instead of the left one. Therefore, he must be either ambidextrous or left-handed.
I've always been known for noticing little things like that in shows. XD;
**pets the icon.** That song just goes with Doom arc Dartz so well! I wanted that exact screengrab to make the icon, so I was glad that yugioh.de had it. ^^
And now for a blurb. XD Here we have one for a future scene in Life After the Tears, with a meeting of three YGO businessmen. Dartz would be there, only he has other things to tend to at the moment, and he's not established as the CEO of Paradius again, at this point. First he has to get the company away from Doom Reborn. X3 Anyway . . .
Pegasus stood to greet Seto as the teenager entered the room. "Kaiba-boy!" he exclaimed with a smile. "It's been such a long time, hasn't it."
Seto growled in annoyance. "Not long enough," he retorted, casting his gaze around the room. "Where's the third member of this little get-together?" He hated that he had to be here, but there was nothing he could do about it. He doubted that they would come to any conclusions about the problem in their meeting, however. A Curse of Dragon, roaring outside the window, seemed to be agreeing with Seto's thoughts. There was little that the three businessmen could come up with to quell the public's concerns about the creatures, especially since none of them knew how to explain it. But somehow they did have to prove that none of them had caused this problem for "publicity," or other reasons. Siegfried Von Schraider would probably have the most difficult time with that, due to his past actions.
Pegasus shook his head in mock disappointment. "Oh dear, Kaiba-boy, you're still so grouchy." He gestured idly about the room. "As for Siegfried, he seems to be a bit delayed. But then, I guess he always has been, hasn't he?" He smirked a bit at his jibe. "After all, you beat him to coming here with your designs for holographic technology."
Seto grunted. He agreed with Pegasus's statement, though he would never show it. With a thump of finality he set his briefcase on the long conference table. "Speaking ill of your business partners when they're not around, I see," he commented then. "I wonder what you say about me." His blue eyes narrowed with this sarcastic remark. Naturally Seto could not care less what Pegasus said about him.
"Oh, I merely say the truth," Pegasus smirked, "that you're a tense CEO with no time or interest in having fun. You know, even Siegfried knows how to relax at times, though he doesn't care for cartoons." He looked up as the door opened again. Seto turned around as well.
Siegfried was standing in the doorway, looking slightly weary. He was as flamboyant as always, wearing a trademark purple suit along with a white ruffled shirt and a red scarf about his neck. His right arm was in a sling, prompting both Seto and Pegasus to wonder what had happened, and Leonhard was at the man's side, looking unusually nervous and uncomfortable. Leonhard's presence there was not odd, as he had accompanied Siegfried when they had first been going to make the business deal with Pegasus. What was odd, however, was the child's behavior.
"Pardon my tardiness," Siegfried smiled, closing the door behind them. "There was an . . . incident."
Pegasus clucked his tongue. "Dear me, it certainly looks like it," he exclaimed. "Do tell us what happened! I'm certain we're both highly curious."
Seto rolled his eyes. "Speak for yourself," he grunted. "I couldn't care less."
Siegfried smirked at him. "Your attitude has not improved since our last meeting, Herr Kaiba." He glanced at Pegasus. "As for what happened, it was simply a misfortune with a knife."
Seto noticed how Leonhard looked down at the floor gloomily as Siegfried spoke. He frowned slightly, wondering what the child knew about the "misfortune." He knew that Leonhard adored his elder brother, much the same way that Mokuba adored him, so he knew that the boy must be worried about Siegfried's well-being. And yet, it seemed as if there was something more. Leonhard almost looked . . . guilty, Seto realized. Why?
Pegasus shook his head. "My, but those things are dangerous," he said.
"Quite so." Siegfried sat down at the table, obviously not intending to offer any more information on the subject. Leonhard sat down next to him, looking as though he wished the chair would swallow him up. Continuing to frown suspiciously, Seto sat down as well.
Pegasus shrugged, also taking a seat. "I do hope it didn't cause any serious damage," he said, though both Seto and Siegfried somewhat doubted the sincerity of this comment.
"Not at all," Siegfried responded with a casual air, glancing at Leonhard as he spoke. Almost, Seto thought, as if he's trying to convince his brother of that. "And at least it wasn't my left arm," the pink-haired man continued, leaning back in the chair.
"Ah yes," Pegasus nodded. "That's right, you are left-handed, aren't you."
He looked over at Leonhard. "And how are you today, Leonhard?" he asked. "You don't seem to be your normally cheerful self."
The boy looked up with a start before remembering fully where he was. Then he gave a weak smile. "I'm alright," he mumbled.
"He is shaken over the fact that I was injured," Siegfried explained.
"Of course," Pegasus nodded. Another roar from the Curse of Dragon seemed to remind the CEO of Industrial Illusions exactly why they were gathered there. "Well, we'd best get down to business," he announced then. "It looks as though these monsters aren't going to go away any time soon, and we're continuing to take the blame for their existence."
