This is a little speech-only one-shot that I came up with a while back. I just never got around to writing it. May be a little OOC. T because it's a little suggestive. Enjoy.

Summary: Of all the impressive talents he's developed, naming D-Wheels may be Yusei's least impressive.

Crank.

"…That's its name?"

"That's whose name?"

"Your D-Wheel's."

Crank.

"The Yusei Model?"

"Yes."

Crank.

"Yusei…"

Crank.

"You are one of the most creative people on the planet…"

Crank.

"…you've built a D-Wheel from spare parts you've found in trash piles…"

Crank.

"…thrice I might add…"

"Including the one I'm tuning up."

"And I've thanked you for that."

Crank.

"…there are hundreds of D-Wheels are in existence…"

Crank.

"…thousands upon thousands of words…"

Crank.

"…and the best you can come up with is the 'Yusei Model'?"

Crank.

Crank.

Crank.

"Your silence speaks volumes."

"What's wrong with the 'Yusei Model'?"

"Your determination is adorable, but it won't help you here."

Crank.

"So what do you want to name your D-Wheel?"

"Something good, for one."

Crank.

"'Yusei Model' is good."

"The vehicle is I'll grant you."

Crank.

"I don't have to do everything, you know. You can do some of the work on your own."

"You're right. I'm sure your teammates are better at coming up with a name, anyway."

Crank.

"I'll be amazed if Bruno could name his D-Wheel something to your liking better than I can."

"I may take you up on that."

Crank.

"Jack and Crow are out on jobs. Well, Crow is, at least. Won't be back until sundown."

"I know."

"Rua and Ruka had to finish their homework."

"I know."

Crank.

"Did you just come here to patronize me?"

"And get my D-Wheel tuned up."

Crank.

"It was already here; you didn't need to come."

"I know."

Crank.

Crank.

Crunch.

"Hmph."

"What's wrong?"

"Hand slipped. Should have worn my gloves."

"Your knuckle…"

"It's fine."

Chu.

"…That wasn't necessary."

"Yes, but it wasn't unnecessary."

"Cute."

"It feels better, yes?"

Crank.

"It's getting late, so I'll be back tomorrow."

"No one else will be here tomorrow."

"I know."

Crank.

"Besides, I think you're better at this naming thing, than I thought."

"You think?"

"Good night, Yusei."
