Waiting for another individual's affections to reciprocate can be a rough process. So many questions, so many answers, and so many unspoken feelings. Through transcendence of time and visions coalescing with fate, humans wish for the special night to appear. The night which all-foreign expressions would resurface and ink the ground. So familiar, yet very uncommon as the expression on a child's face when they see a dollhouse in front of them.
Playing pretend with figurines and puppets of their own imagination worlds, never truly seeing the actuality, ambiguity and the tenderness of the human heart. The individuals whom are entrapped in the web of their own hesitant decisions and fatal mistakes are the ones who shun the real world.
Yami loved Serenity with all his heart whereas she loved him back, the macabre parody of encouraging hearts behind them. They knew it was wrong, to deceive others while they slept together for the past two months, but they couldn't hold off their feelings any longer.
Téa fell in love with Yami before she chose to fall out of love for the white-haired beauty Ryou. She was in shock over the clashing of her feelings for Yugi and Yami, so she befriended the young white-haired boy and in turn submerged herself with his love.
Yugi, the vessel of Yami, loves Téa but he chose in his own free will to love the troubled Ryou also. They shared the same fate, being the hosts of parasites and their own dark personalities, and they bonded in a way they never felt before.
The darkness of Malik Ishtar, Marik, submitted to the shadows of his own lust and desires for the heart of Serenity, who loved his enemy, the Pharaoh. Marik then could never love anyone else but her. Loneliness and Serenity was all he wanted.
In the ancient regime of Egypt, 5,000 years ago, Priest Seto found a girl with blue eyes and white hair within the hallowed halls of sand, seeking her power of the legendary Blue Eyes White Dragon, hoping to save the kingdom. The girl, Kisara, felt affection for the Priest, thanking him for the rescue of her soul, but in the midst of finding him, the infamous Thief King Bakura had attained her attention and tempted her with the caress of his hands. He then inundated her in the abyss of seduction, colored with the blood spilt from their enemies.
The Doll House is full of misplaced aggression and current fairytales, breaking hearts in the development, over the last millennia. It's all smoke and mirrors, lies. The affection one feels for one and then for another. It's just a collection where everyone now can tread near and far, where one love based on fate was doomed from the star, sealing the individuals.
(A/N: If you try listening to "Siberian Doll House" on Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex O.S.T 1, you'll hear the inspiration for this.
