Author's Note: Oowaaaa! I got the next chapter out so fast! :3 You all should love me.

Anyway, I would just like to point out that this is actually about six months after Mythaven. …I probably should have made that clear earlier… . See, Mythaven began at the beginning of summer vacation for them, and summer vacations (at least in US) is usually about three months, so… And I figure that if Joey's going to be pregnant, he wouldn't want to show the majority of it in school. :/ I'm just sayin'.

This chapter may be changed later. I feel as if I've forgotten something. I'll leave a note in the next chapter (along with an "edit" note on this one) if I do.

The Secret Serpent

Recap:

"…He mentioned something about having sex with you in Mythaven, didn't he?" Yugi asked, frowning. When his friend buried his face in his hands, he sighed. "I knew it. You have to get over that, Joey. Kaiba. Likes. Sex."

"Don't say that word it doesn't sound right comin' from ya!" Joey exclaimed, flailing about wildly.

Téa opened her mouth to scold him, then frowned. "…I won't lie, Yugi; it really doesn't sound right coming from you. …Or Ryou."

Tristan crossed his arms and nodded his agreement. "You and Ryou should be banned from cursing and saying words that make primary-school kids blush."

Ryou and Yugi glanced at each other skeptically. "…Right."

As if the others could dictate what they could and couldn't say.

Chapter 3

"…I thought he said he was getting off early to come with us…" Joey stated softly, frowning.

Yugi smiled weakly. "Maybe he got caught up at work."

"…Well…" The blond didn't look too sure, but then the door to the shop burst open and they were all shaken by a loud, furious roar.

Seto took a few deep breaths, trying to control his anger, then let out another roar. "I work with IDIOTS!"

As his second roar shook the building and sent tremors through the ones nearby, the darker halves hurriedly grabbed their beloveds and stood in front of them, to protect them from possible danger. Téa and Tristan both stood from their seats, ready to bolt, as neither of them had magic-wielding lovers to keep them safe.

Joey merely sighed and walked up to give him a light, chaste kiss on the lips. When his dragon only growled in response, he raised an eyebrow, then began to gently, lovingly, place kisses along his jaw and down his neck. "Seto…"

Seto's fangs began to recede again as the blond began nibbling his earlobe, and the glow in his eyes began to fade. He let out a long rumble of upset before letting his eyes flutter closed in favor of appreciating the touch his puppy was giving him. "Mmn…"

Once he was sure that the brunet wouldn't get angry again, the blond leaned back. "Why are your coworkers idiots, Seto?"

The glow in his eyes began to return. "The moment I tried to pack up to leave, three people just barge into my office, panicking and running around like chickens with their heads cut off. Apparently, some moron had a beverage in where they weren't supposed to and spilled it on one of the mainframes. And it appears that half of the work they'd done for a new game was deleted. Do you know why it was deleted?" he asked angrily, fangs extending again.

Joey frowned; he hadn't realized his mate was so pissed. "…Because they… didn't save it?"

"Because they hadn't saved it!" the brunet affirmed, throwing his arms up in frustration. "What sort of morons do I have working for me?! I fired all three of the idiots that had disturbed me, but now I have to find someone to replace them now, which means I'll have to work more overtime because they were managing large projects so I have to interview the other members of their team and promote them—but then that person has to be replaced, which thank GOD I don't have to deal with, and—"

The younger boy cut him off with another kiss, longer and slightly wetter than the first. Leaning back, he gave the brunet a concerned look. "Do ya still wanna talk t' Soumya, then, Seto?"

Seto took a few deep breaths, then forced himself to calm down. "Yes. I would still like to talk to Soumya." He sighed in frustration and leaned his head into the other boy's neck. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to get so worked up."

"It's okay, sweetie." Joey smiled sweetly and gave him one last kiss, then patted his shoulder and turned back to the book lying innocently on the counter. "You're just upset. But! Now that you're here, we can go!"

The brunet blinked in surprise that the other boy had pulled away so soon, then sighed and trudged after him. The moment may not have lasted as long as he would have liked it to, but he wasn't going to complain; he needed to speak with Soumya too much for him to get upset over it.

.-.-.-.-.-.

Kankana groaned and fell to the ground. "Oh, no, you've got me! Aaagh…!"

The three dragon kits she'd been playing with squealed and began crawling on top of her, tails poking and prodding her in various places. She appeared to be dead, by all counts.

Until one well placed jab got her yelping. "Ow! Now that one really hurt!"

The kits squealed again and began waddling away quickly as Joy flew over and ushered them back to the den.

Kankana frowned and sat up, making sure she hadn't been poked too hard by a poison barb. Not that it would kill her; she'd just suffer vomiting for a few days. No, it was the pups in her belly she was checking for. Their tiny bodies—as big as they would be, considering both her size and Soumya's—wouldn't be able to handle it. That, and she'd built up an immunity to dragon poison, really. Akai had accidentally slapped her with his poison barb more than enough for that to happen.

Finding that she was still in prime condition, she stood, then limped over to the tiny yellow dragon currently squealing at the three kits in a scolding manner. She would never get over the amusement she felt when she saw such a small dragon scolding some kits that were about ten times his size. "No harm done. I'm okay."

Joy narrowed his eyes at her—again in a scolding manner. "Keeneenee…"

She couldn't help but feel like she'd done something bad on a rug under that stare. "Wha-aaaaaaaat?"

"You shouldn't be running around and doing such strenuous things," Soumya muttered, trotting out of the den (and seemingly mindless of the purple-eyed, gray kit that had latched onto his tail with its very sharp teeth). "You're going to give birth soon; you should be more careful. Just… don't do the stuff you normally do."

"You have a dragon baby attached to your butt," Kankana replied by way of answer, then huffed and stuck her nose up in the air. "I think I'm more aware of what my body can and cannot do, thank you very—OhmiGodJoeyyou'rehere!"

Joey let out a yelp as was tackled to the ground. "Kankana-!"

The kirin's ears folded back in annoyance, but then he sighed in defeat. He knew it was basically hopeless to try and get her to stay still. She was a bit slower with the added weight of the puppies, but she wasn't any less active. It seemed like the coming of puppies had made her act even more like one herself.

The inugami stepped back, smiling brightly. "So, what did you bring me?"

"Whatta ya mean, what did I bring ya?! Ya think I have a chance to get ya somethin' every time I come?!" Joey exclaimed, glaring at her. When she merely tilted her head like a curious puppy, he sighed and pulled a box out of his bag. "Here."

Kankana felt herself drooling as he opened the box and began shoving her face in before he could get the lid completely out of the way. "Dango!"

Joy squealed in delight and zoomed over to bash into Seto's face, rubbing up against his cheek affectionately as he cooed. "Seeto!"

"…Hi, Joy," he sighed, reaching up to grasp him gently and pull him away from his face. "I know it's been a while since I've visited."

"Meee!" The dragon squealed in delight and rubbed his face against the brunet's finger, undaunted by being pulled away from his initial greeting area.

Seto frowned at him, then turned and held him out to Téa. "This is Téa. Make her feel welcome." Then, he released him.

Joy took his job seriously. However, all people and creatures present were surprised (and Joey horrified) when he nestled between her breasts and cooed. "Tee!"

…It's a good thing he was cute, Joey decided, or else the dragon would have gotten slapped to the other side of Mythaven.

Téa squealed in delight and grasped him in her hands gently. "Aren't you just the cutest! I could just eat you up!"

The tiny dragon smiled his open-mouthed smile. "Mee! Tee! Meetee!"

"…I think he likes you, Téa," Yugi commented, smiling at her.

"Meet! Mee meet!"

"…I don't think you can mate with a human," Seto stated, then plucked the dragon out of her hands. "Come on, Joy."

The Petit Dragon squealed in distress as he was taken away from his intended. "Mee meet! Mee meeeeeeet!"

Téa really didn't know what to make of all of this—she totally wasn't going to be the dragon's mate—but he looked so heart-broken. Leaning down and smiling sweetly, she explained, "I can't be your mate, Joy; I have a boyfriend already. But how about we be just good friends, okay?"

Joy tilted his head, seriously pondering what she'd said, then smiled and nodded. "Geed freends!"

Seto wasn't sure whether or not that would be encouraging the little dragon, but he decided that Téa could handle herself. …She was the one saying they could be geed freends. Sighing, he released Joy; he wondered how long Téa would like Joy as he settled himself on her chest again. "…Anyway. Soumya, I need to talk to you."

Soumya tilted his head in surprise, then nodded. "Alright. Let's go for a walk." His eyes narrowed as his mate perked up. "You're staying here and waiting for Jace to come see Joey to see if he's pregnant yet." When her eyes began to fill with tears—he damned her sensitivity during this pregnancy—he sighed. "I'll send the franks."

She immediately cheered up at that. "Make sure that Tlipo's with them!"

His ears folded back in frustration, and he mumbled something about bipolar mates and how he was glad her pregnancy was almost over as he began walking away. However, he did answer her with an obedient, "Yes, dear."

Seto raised an eyebrow but moved to follow him. "I'll be back soon, puppy."

"Okay. I'll tell ya what the unicorn says when ya come back!" the blond called after him, waving, then frowned. "I thought maybe he'd stay."

"He must need to talk to Soumya about something important," Ryou commented softly, then smiled up at him. "We're here, though."

"Soumya! You still have a baby dragon on your butt!" Kankana shrieked, then limped after them hurriedly. "Akai's gonna be mad if you lose one of the kits! …Not to mention the girls!"

There was silence for all of five seconds before the humans began to laugh.

.-.-.-.-.-.

After making sure that Kankana could handle the kit—it had been reluctant to let go of his tail—Soumya turned toward the Dragon Master, frowning. "What's wrong?"

Seto crossed his arms and sighed. "…I've… been having problems lately, I think."

The kirin raised a brow. "You think?"

"I don't know… I mean, it could be normal, but I'm not sure." The brunet rubbed the back of his head, brows furrowing together in both concern and uncertainty. "I just… I can't… I've been feeling things lately."

"…So I'm no expert on human emotions, but I can assume they're close to mine. I can guarantee that feeling things is normal, Seto," Soumya stated, smiling wryly. "Just spit it out, Seto. I didn't judge you before and I'm not going to judge you now."

Sighing, the brunet took a few moments to gather his thoughts, then began to explain. "I know you had me read that book, and you've explained some things to me. I know that sires are possessive of their mates, and they're very aggressive. But lately, I've been… outrageously so? I don't know…"

The dragon-deer sat down, nodding patiently. "Give me an example."

Seto sat down as well, running his fingers through his hair anxiously. "…I had a dream the other day. Joey was having sex with someone else. It was someone we both know, but I know for a fact that Joey doesn't like him, and Joey isn't the type of person to cheat on me. But… I just… I was so… I was so angry. I had no reason to be, and the anger just wouldn't go away. I thought it did for a little while, but then…"

"…But then…?" Soumya urged, raising his brows.

The brunet sighed and rubbed his eyes with the palms of his hands; he was beginning to get a headache. "…But then I found out that Joey hadn't told me something and I'd been doing a whole lot of research for nothing. I spanked him. I had no right to do that, but I spanked him. And I've been feeling so angry and jealous all the time." Seto looked up at him and frowned. "I don't have a reason to feel that way. I've got a good mate. He's loyal and he's going to carry our babies. He's my puppy. Why do I feel this way?"

The kirin tilted his head, frowning thoughtfully. "…I'm not sure. That's definitely not normal. Is there anything else?"

"I've been more irritable lately, I guess. Something minor—well, as minor as things get that I have to deal with—happened at work today, and I was so angry I almost shook Yugi's game shop to pieces. I normally wouldn't have gotten so mad." He sighed and leaned his head back against the tree he was sitting in front of. "Joey tried to calm me down, but when he asked what had made me so angry, I… I just got angry again. I'm not angry right now… Why is that…?"

Soumya eyed the boy for a few moments, eyes narrowed in thought, before he nodded. "I won't lie. This is not normal. However, it's not entirely bizarre."

"…Thank you?"

"Some Dragon Masters have anxiety attacks when away from their mates—you know that already—but other Dragon Masters become more irritable when not in contact with dragons regularly. You haven't been here in a while. Perhaps you're irritable because of that," he explained, sighing.

Seto frowned. "Soumya, I've got too much on my plate to be coming here everyday like Joey does. Not having schoolwork helps, but I do have a lot of other work at Kaiba Corp., and I like to spend my free time with Joey. I don't—"

The kirin rolled his eyes. "I realize this. However, I believe I know someone who can help you; she can go with you to your world, be in constant contact with you. If that doesn't help with your irritability, then it must be something else—something worse."

The brunet didn't like the sound of that ominous 'something worse,' but there was really nothing he could do about it. However, he was more concerned with this 'she' that Soumya was speaking of. "Who?"

"Her name is Codi. She's a Petit Dragon like Joy, so she won't be too obtrusive," Soumya explained. "In fact, people will barely notice her. She's… well… She's not as… exuberant as Joy. She's more subdued."

Seto sighed. "Oh, thank God. I don't think I could hide Joy from the media if I tried. He'd like the attention too much."

The dragon-deer nodded a little. "Yes, Codi is shyer than Joy is. She'll stay hidden if you ask her to."

The brunet hoped that having a girl around would also help with dealing with Joey later in his pregnancy. He had no idea how he was going to deal with him like that.

.-.-.-.-.-.

"Well, Joey, I'm happy to say you're finally pregnant," Jace stated, smiling.

He couldn't help smiling, really; after all, unicorns did like pretty girls [1], and he had not only a girl fawning over him, but also two boys that were almost entirely light; there was little darkness in them. To top that off, he'd just informed the Golden One that he was pregnant, which he'd been hoping for every day that he'd come. Life couldn't be better, in his opinion, and when he sensed the happiness of all four humans swelling, he was reminded just why he enjoyed having the amazing powers that he did.

Joey laughed as all three of his friends immediately hugged him and tried frantically to hug them back, but he found his arms pinned to his sides. "No way! Seto and I are gonna have kids! Can you believe it?!"

"Oh, Joey, I'm so happy for you!"

"You're gonna be a great mom, I know it!"

"I'm glad you're happy, Joey!"

As if on cue, a tidal wave of brightly colored franks poured forth from the forest, mewing happily to see the Golden One.

Téa squealed. "Oh my gosh, they're so cute!"

The franks stopped and stared at her with large, wary eyes, but then they began rubbing up against her and jumping up to rest on her shoulders, knocking each other off in the process to get closer to this new person. Joy began squealing at them angrily, possessive of his new friend, and started diving at them like an angry bird protecting its nest.

Ryou cooed as he found the blue leader frank and picked her up. "Joey told me all about giving you a gender! I'm so happy for you!" The frank mewled and wriggled happily in his arms.

Joey smiled brightly as he found Tlipo walking up and exclaimed, "Tlipo, I'm pregnant!"

The chupacabra looked up at him in surprise, then tilted his head. "'ey man, I'm glad. Lots of Golden Ones don't take the first time, you know?"

"Really?" The blond tilted his head in surprise. "I didn't. You're not jokin' with me, are ya?"

"Maybe eet's because you deed eet for Frankie first." The hairless dog chuckled as the blue frank mewled in affection. "She's due een a few months, we think. We don't really know, though; she's the first frank that can have keeds."

Yugi looked up at his friend and blinked innocently. "Hey, Joey, how did you know how to give someone a female reproductive system, anyway?"

At this, Joey's face began burning in embarrassment, and he felt like hiding under a rock. "Well, I… I just…" His cheeks turned a darker shade of red when not only Ryou and Téa turned their attention on him in interest, but Tlipo and Jace as well—which got all of the franks staring at him, too. "…I stayed awake in health, okay!?"

Ryou stared at him for a few moments before stating, "…The teachers really didn't go into detail about female reproductive systems, Joey. They sort of skimmed it and went on to teach us about our own bodies."

"Yeah, we didn't really learn much about guys either," Téa commented, raising an eyebrow expectantly.

The blond stomped his foot in frustration. "I have a little sister, okay?! I needed t' learn this stuff in case she asked me things! Which she did! I dunno why when she could've just asked Mom, but she did! I got a book! Okay?!"

"Got a book about what?" Kankana asked, dragging herself back into view. "Urgh, get it off…" The dragon kit clutching her long, fluffy tail squealed as he saw the franks and waddled over to begin batting at the dozens of pompom tails. She narrowed her eyes in frustration, then sighed and looked up at the blond again. "Right. Got a book about what?"

"Reproduction systems," Ryou answered, seeing that the blond had buried his face in his hands and probably wouldn't look up for a while. "Female ones."

"…Ah." She raised a brow, but she decided that she shouldn't question the Golden One. …Especially since he looked about to have heat stroke. When a frank bleated in distress—the kit had bitten its tail too hard—she scowled angrily and roared, "JOY! You're supposed to be minding the kits!"

Joy squealed in startlement as he spun to face her, then gasped when he saw the dragon gnawing on the frank's tail; it didn't know that a frank, if eaten, could claw its way out of its belly. Scowling sternly, he flew over and began screeching loudly in disapproval. The kit looked up at him with big, watery purple eyes. The Petit Dragon, however, was not easily swayed, and so he began ushering him back toward the den, shrilling and shrieking the entire distance until all they could hear was echoes from inside the den.

Once the dragon's screeches had faded, Yugi snorted. "I won't lie, Téa. Joy seems sort of like a creeper."

"But he's a cute creeper," the dancer replied, smiling brightly.

A few moments later, attention was drawn to the loud sound of flapping, and then four loud roars that had the humans falling to the ground, Kankana stumbling and bonking her nose on a tree, and Jace losing his footing for a second.

Akai blinked as he landed, then smiled brightly. "Ah, I see someone's late for his check-up today!"

"Shut up! I was busy this mornin'!" Joey exclaimed, smiling, as he slapped the dragon's arm.

The black dragon wasn't exactly sure he felt it, but he saw it, and it's really the thought that counts. Giving the blond a small shove with his tail, he chuckled as he squawked and fell over again. "So—" He nearly squawked himself when he was shoved out of the way by his three eager mates. "Ack!"

"Did it happen? Are you pregnant?"

"Are we expecting baby Golden Ones yet?"

"Don't be silly; they'll be baby Dragon Masters!"

Joey blushed as the three Blue-Eyes White Dragons began nuzzling him and licking him in greeting. "I— Yeah, I am." He winced as the dragons shrieked their joy and let out a yelp as Kisara grasped him in her tail gently. "K-Kisara-!"

"I'm so happy for you, Joey!" she cooed, rubbing her face against his. "Seto will be a good father, I'm sure of it!"

"Ah—I think he will too! …Please put me down."

The Blue-Eyes pouted and looked like they just might say no, but then Akai had plucked the blond from Kisara's grasp and gently placed him on the ground. "Let's let Joey tell Kaiba he's pregnant. It's really none of our business." When they looked like they might complain, he gave them a stern glare. "Let's go make sure the kits didn't commit mutiny while we were gone again."

The females were in the den faster than one could say 'oh, snap.' Which Joey did. Because he remembered the last time the kits had committed mutiny, and it had ended with Joy covered in dragon snot and stuck to a wall, his little voice hoarse from shrieking.

"…It was sort of like watching a bunch of older sisters happy for their baby sister," Téa commented, to which Ryou and Yugi nodded sagely.

The blond glared at them. "Who ya callin' a girl?!"

"You, Mr. Pregnant."

"Hey!"

It appeared at that moment that everyone was coming to them—first the franks, then the dragons, and now Seto and Soumya. Seto raised an eyebrow in confusion and crossed his arms. "What's up? You look angry."

"They're makin' fun of me!" Joey exclaimed, pointing at his friends and scowling. As if just remembering why they'd been making fun of him, he blushed a little and rubbed the back of his head. "Um…"

"…Private time!" Ryou exclaimed, gathering up a few more franks before turning to run into the den. Yugi and Téa were quick to follow with their own armfuls of franks. The rest of the franks followed quickly, yowling—though Tlipo, at least, traveled silently and at a more sedate pace.

Kankana tilted her head as her mate nudged her in the direction of the den. "Wha-aaat?"

"They're going to have a private moment." Soumya frowned at her. "That means just the two of them."

"Aw, I don't see why—" she began, but then the unicorn had ducked his head and slipped it beneath her waist. "Aiyeeee!"

Jace smiled at him brightly. "I've got her."

The kirin sighed and trudged after him as the other creature trotted away (his mate protesting with each bounce). "If you just did as I told you the first time…"

Seto blinked in confusion, then turned his attention back to the blond. "Joey? What's going on?"

"Well…" Joey blushed again and moved closer to reach up and grab his hands. "…I guess…"

The brunet tilted his head as the smaller boy squeezed his hands tentatively, then leaned in to press a quick kiss to his forehead; his mate was cute when he looked nervous. "Please tell me."

"…Seto…" Joey took a few deep breaths, then looked up at him, smiling. "We did it. I'm pregnant." The Dragon Master blinked at him for a few moments before it really began to sink in. The blond frowned in concern when he felt the other boy's hands going slack, but then his eyes rolled back and he began to understand. "Ack-! Seto, no! Eep!"

He tried to catch him, but Seto was heavy (even heavier with his stupid leather trench coat), so they both ended up on the ground. It took a few more minutes for him to completely figure out what had just happened. However, when he finally did realize, he let out a shout of frustration and pounded on the other boy's shoulders.

"Seto Kaiba! Ya knew we were tryin' t' get pregnant! How dare ya faint on me!"

Yugi peeked out of the den, frowning. "Well, that didn't work out the way we thought it would."

"We should probably go help him," Ryou commented, sighing softly. "…Poor Joey…"

.-.-.-.-.-.

"Joey, I'm really sorry," Seto pleaded, trying to get the blond to look at him, and grasped his hands tightly. "I didn't think I'd actually faint; I'm so sorry, puppy!"

The younger boy looked away from him sharply, scowling. "Humph!"

"Joey! Please! Sweetie! I'm sorry!" the brunet exclaimed, brows drawing together worriedly, before he reached up to grab the other boy's chin and force him to look down at him. He felt even more worry and horror claw at him when he saw the angry tears that had formed in his lover's eyes. "Joey…"

Joey glared at him angrily. "Ya knew we were tryin' t' get pregnant. Ya wanted me t' get pregnant. And then ya just fainted on me! Do ya know how bad that makes me feel?!" He hurriedly rubbed at his eyes to try and get rid of the tears; he knew the brunet failed to function properly when he saw them. "I-I thought ya wanted kids-!"

"I do! Really! I do want kids." Seto reached up to stroke his cheek with his thumb gently. "I'm sorry, Joey. I didn't mean to upset you. I don't know why I fainted. Please forgive me?"

He wished he could stay angry, but he could tell that the other boy was sincere. Sighing loudly, he sniffled and looked away from him. "…Fine. But ya owe me something special." He scowled. "And isn't sex!"

The brunet smiled at him in relief. "I'll make sure to do something really special, Jo-ow!"

Joey frowned. "I think he's teething, guys."

Kisara scowled and caught the little grey dragon by the tail, rumbling in disapproval. "Ibia!" The kit whined and released the brunet's leg.

"Kits don't teeth this early. She's just troublemaker," Akai stated, then patted the Dragon Master on the head with his tail. "Sorry about that."

Seto growled and rubbed the top of his head but mumbled something along the lines of 'it's okay.' It had hurt, but he was sure that if he wanted to, the dragon could have just hit his head off like a baseball.

"Ahn, Seto, Codi's here," Soumya stated, trotting into the den.

Joey looked up in interest and gasped when he saw the tiny yellow dragon drifting behind the kirin, covering his mouth. "Petit-! Girl!"

Codi squeaked, brows furrowing together in fear, and dove into the dragon-deer's mane, leaving nothing but a quivering mass of hair in her wake. "Mee!"

Seto sighed and reached into the kirin's hair to pull her out. "Don't worry, Codi. Joey overreacts on a daily basis."

"She's so cute! Codi, can I cuddle ya?" the blond exclaimed, holding his arms out pleadingly.

Not even Codi could resist those big brown eyes. Letting out a soft squeak of uncertainty, she squirmed out of the older teen's hands and drifted over to him. The blond smiled brightly and hugged her—gently, of course, because he could tell how skittish she was, but he was hugging her!

Codi blinked as she saw another Petit Dragon chasing after some kits, then squeaked and looked away from him quickly. Seto noticed. A plan would have to be made for this.

But onto other things.

"Joey? Can we go home now?" Ryou asked softly, fidgeting. "I have the bad feeling that Bakura and Yami might kill each other soon…"

Yugi nodded quickly. "Yami can only handle Bakura so long."

"What?! Right! Sorry! Let's go!" Joey exclaimed quickly, standing, only to whine as the dragon was plucked out of his hands. "Seto-!"

The brunet settled her inside the collar of his coat, making sure she was hidden at least partially; he didn't intend to let anyone take a second look to make sure their imaginations weren't tricking them. "You can only pull off the 'yellow tumor' look so often, puppy."

"Hey!"

"AGH, the feeling is getting worse!" Ryou wailed, tugging at his hair.

Joey would have argued, but his friends took priority right now and he really didn't feel like helping them clean blood off of the walls of the game shop, so he grabbed his friends and threw them into the portal first.

.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.

[1] It's the whole "unicorn hunt where he's caught by the virgin" thing. :3 Lol, unicorn likes jailbait (because Téa's still under eighteen. :p). Jace makes me giggle.

I just realized! I made Téa like Mythaven's bitch! D: Joy wants her, Jace has taken a liking to her, the franks want to maul her… Then again, the franks want to maul everyone. Maybe they shouldn't count. :x
