***AN: Today is my birthday and I wanted 100 Thiefshipping Drabbles. So I wrote 61, uhhhh, it's a work in progress. I'm going to post 1 drabble a day so I have plenty of time to write the others :) These will be loosely related, as if we're peaking in on Marik and Bakura, but only seeing a few seconds for about twenty-ish years of their relationship. If you like the idea of getting a different drabble warning sent to your email each morning then you should subscribe! If the thought of only 100-250 words of Thiefshipping at a time is as insulting to you as a crack head only getting one hit of crack a day . . . then maybe check in every week or so. Reviews are nice, but even if no one else likes it - bugger off, it's my birthday present :) ***
Marik slapped his hand over his mouth to keep the scream muted when he turned on the light and noticed the thief laying on Marik's bed. "Bakura?"
A slow smirk curled high on the thief's face. "Surprised to see me?"
Marik nested his hands on the ledge of his hips. "Surprised to see you in my bed? No, that was inevitable. Surprised to see you return from the Shadows yet again? No, also inevitable. Perhaps I'm a little surprised that you look the same although you're no longer in Ryou's body. How did you come back this time?"
Bakura shrugged. "Magic. Gods. I rolled a Super Critical. Shit, I honestly don't know, but you don't survive as long as I have without learning to roll with the punches."
Marik studied Bakura, the look on his face reminiscent of their first meeting as a plan stormed behind his lavender eyes. "Hey Bakura?"
The thief raised an eyebrow.
"You can throw dice, right?"
"Sure."
"And I can count cards."
"For all the good it did us against the Pharaoh."
"Nevertheless . . . want to fly to Vegas and see how much we can 'win' before they kick us out?"
"Sure, I got nothing better to do. Not anymore."
"Let's go."
A sultry look adorned Bakura's countenance. "You don't want to welcome me back first?"
Marik smirked. "Don't worry, I'll give you a proper welcoming on the jet."
