A/N: So who's ready for some random talks? The first one more or less popped into my head one night (didn't help I was wearing a Lion King shirt at the time) while the second was suggested by CrystalDragonMaster on Discord. The third one is...I'll explain in the bottom author's note. The last one popped into my head because reasons (also takes place in the future, just FYI). Hope everyone enjoys these, and maybe I'll try to write down any more random ones to make this into a mini series, yeah?

Disclaimer: I do not own Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's. That goes to the respective owner(s). I only claim my OCs. Also, prepare the soap for Ren's potty mouth. And the last short may get a bit...more than some of the other shorts get (but nothing really happens; just 'talk').

Random Talks 1:

Movie Night

(Yusei's POV)

"Kinda don't like the designs in this version of the movie," Ren muttered as he grabbed some of the popcorn.

"You say that, but you're the one who put it on," I retorted.

"Hey, you're the one who said you never saw any of them, so it's my boyfriend-ly duty to rectify it. 'Sides, not like there was much in the way of movie theaters at the moment that weren't packed to hell."

"Fair enough. Anyway, continue your rant."

"Okay, so, I know the director was wanting realistic designs, but seriously! All that emotion just ripped away! My old as balls cat shows more emotion than the characters in this movie!"

"Mmrow!" said cat called from somewhere behind.

"Yeah, I'm talking about you, you asshole. Anyway, where was I? Oh right, no emotions. Like, the biggest scene in this is not nearly as impactful as in the first movie! Like, what the hell!"

"That's true."

"And it's not like those were the only designs. I saw a post that had them showing more emotion kind of like in the Chronicles of Narnia movies—I'll dig around for those later, too—so it's just a shame! Ugh!" After he was done with the rant, he flopped back onto the couch, resting his head on my shoulder.

"Someone's very passionate."

"Hey, if you're the stoic one, I get to be the highly emotional one."

Misunderstanding Story -As Suggested by CrystalDragonMaster-

(Yusei's POV)

Ren and I were hanging out in the garage (or rather, I was working on a few things and Ren decided to sit with me for a bit until I was done; we didn't have anything major planned for today). It was a bit quiet save for the usual sounds. That was when Ren broke the silence.

"Say, was there ever some big misunderstanding that you had to explain to everyone 'cause of some stupid rumor?" he asked, breaking the quiet.

"Misunderstanding? Hm, not that I can think of. Why?" I replied, turning to him.

"Okay, this is going to be a bit of a long one, but it popped back into my head just now. You know how Eric and I used to go to Duel Academy, right?"

"Yeah."

"Okay, see, I'd be hanging with him almost every second we had free time outside of class. Of course, I was out by the time I was...uh, fourteen I think was when I just said, 'Hey, I like girls and guys, so thought you guys should know.'"

"All right."

"So, stupid thing was, someone—and no, I have no clue who did it—decided to spread around that Eric and I were secretly dating this whole time without anyone else knowing."

"You and Eric..?"

"Yep."

"Dating?"

"Yeah, I know."

"But he's straight."

"Yeah, see, a lot of it was under the thinking that he would suddenly stand on one of the tables and shout to the world, 'Everyone, I have an announcement! I am actually into guys, sorry girls!'" Ren stood up from his seat, acting out the little statement.

I chuckled. "Sounds like they already had a little story written for you."

"Pff, you're telling me. Drove Micheal up the walls the entire time. It was during one of our 'breaks.'"

"What doesn't drive him up the walls?"

"True."

Prank Texts

(Ren's POV)

"Okay, there's no way he's going to believe that," I said. Jazz told me to pull this prank based on a funny post she saw from a shared favorite TV series.

"Probably not, but it'll still be a bit funny to do," she replied. "If it goes wrong, you can always blame me."

"Well, if you insist." I took the picture of our little 'masterpiece' and then sent the text.

'YUSEI!' I typed in all caps. 'My laptop's possessed!'

A minute of the typing icon and finally he replied with, 'What? What do you mean possessed? Are you okay?'

'Yes, but my laptop freaked out and then I shouted "Cristo" at it and the screen went black! I need help with the exorcism!' I put the picture in there for emphasis. 'I used my best serious string that I could find to make the mark.'

There was a long pause. Jazz and I looked at each other and snickered a tiny bit. The typing icon came up until he finished. 'Supernatural meme, right?'

'Yes. Were you busy?'

'I have a mess to clean up after that initial text. Thankfully away from the garage and computer.'

'Sorry. Love you~'

'Love you too, bye.'

"So..?" Jazz asked.

"He spat his drink out," I replied. "Or dropped something."

"Yep, that counts for a point."

"He's going to get back at both of us, you know that, right?"

"Yeah, but since you two are dating, yours won't be nearly as bad. I'll just have to beg Crow to hide me and hope Yusei forgets."

"...you talking about the same Yusei, or is there another I'm unaware of?"

Interruptions -Slight BL warning-

(Ren's POV)

I heard the door open and close, indicating that Yusei was back from his job. "Hey, I'm almost done with dinner," I called.

"Hm, seems like I got back home early enough," he replied. I heard a rustle of clothes. He must have taken his coat off.

"Kids are still playing a bit, and pasta's going to take a bit." I put the ladle down after stirring the pot with it. "Anything in particular to drink or—yeep!" As soon as I stepped away from the stove, I got whirled around to be greeted with his dark blue eyes.

"Maybe not a drink, but could I have a bit of dessert first?" Ohh shit, you just had to use that tone.

My face felt flushed, but I managed to compose myself and return his coy smirk. "Why, Yusei, would you really not be able to wait until after dinner?"

"I promise it'll be a quick bite."

"Well-" I couldn't finish the sentence when a loud crash came from another room. Well, there went the mood.

"Sounds like we may have to finish this later."

"Story of our lives." Yusei let me push off the counter as I sucked in a breath. "Isabella! Bruno!"

"I didn't do it!" both yelled in alarm.

A/N: Okay, context on the third. I saw this Supernatural meme that someone made that said their laptop was obviously possessed as they shouted Cristo (Latin for 'God' I believe; wouldn't make sense unless you watched the show) at it and it went black. As I looked at it, all I could think was, "Ren would so send that to Yusei." The last one was a bit...more than I usually write on here (I'm horrible at romance, if you haven't noticed). Also, hope that little misunderstanding short was to your standards. There's actually another thing from their Academy days that I think I'm also going to be 'canon' to Ren's stories as far as non-crossover and non some fantasy AU that I come up with (if you saw the post on dA, shh; don't let anyone else know yet). Anyway, hope you enjoyed, and have a happy Pride Month!
