December 5th
"I hate this time of year," Bakura complained.
"What is wrong with December?" Ryou asked half-heartily as he looked for something to eat in the fridge.
"It is freezing."
"That's it? Believe it or not but it's colder in England."
"I also fell weaker."
"Maybe next time you use my body at night you'll bring a coat and I won't be stuck inside the next day blowing my nose."
"Not that, I don't care about your mortal problems. I mean my magic, it feels restrained. It was fine last week"
"Didn't you say that on the twenty-third?" Ryou replied as he checked the cupboards. "What happened to all of my food?"
"Malik came by yesterday. He said something about Odion cooking."
"I still can't believe you made my body go through that. I could actually taste that stuff."
"Yea so he pigged out."
"Thanks for telling me this. Do you know how hard it is to get some food at two in the morning. Why am I even up?"
"I was bored and couldn't sleep," Bakura replied as if it was obvious.
"Your an immortal spirit. You don't sleep. You know what forget it. I'm going back to bed. Go bother Yami."
"The pharoah? Just turn on the TV, that should work for at least two hours."
"What do you say?" Ryou asked.
"Now?" Bakura tried.
"No."
"I don't know."
"How about 'please'?"
"Fine then please."
"Good. Now don't bother me unless it is life threatening." Ryou flipped on the TV before retreating to his bedroom.
Bakura waited for the endless commercials to end before the actually show came on.
"'Oh Ralph, I'm so sorry I ever betrayed you. Could you find it in your heart to forgive me?'"
"'Cinthia, you went too far this time. I can never forgive you.'"
Bakura stared at the screen in horror. What had he done to deserve this? Demanding Ryou to change the channel would be pointless. He would just grumble and turn over, ignoring whatever the spirit said. Bakura painfully watched soap-operas until Ryou finally came down stairs to buy breakfast. Six. Hours. Later.
AN Here is December Magic What do you think so far? If anyone is wondering, November twenty-third is the Japanese holiday Labor Thanksgiving Day. I actually looked it up. Next chapter will be in a few days (the chapter date and release date will match) and we will visit Yami and Yugi. More will be explained later but this will be over around New Years. Happy Holidays!
