A/N: Marik and Malik. For anyone who cares, Harley-chan is Malik's motorbike (a Harley Davidson), Frankensnakie is Bakura's freakish pet, and Marik is insane. Plus, remember Yami scratching Harley-chan with his puzzle? Remember that. Yes. 'Tis important-ish.

Question Time 23

Marik: Hikari! I want a pet!! I neeeeed one!!

Malik: Why do you need a pet??

Marik: Everyone else has one!

Malik: Since when were you a conformist?

Marik: blink Erm... yes?

Malik: That made no sense. Anyway, nobody we know has a pet, so why do you need one? Wait, was this another dream you had? Yami, remember that talk we had about what's a dream and what's reality?

Marik: No?

Malik: sigh

Marik: Anyway, everyone else has pets.

Malik: Like what?

Marik: Otogi has a chihuahua.

Malik: Had a chihuahua. And do you remember what happened to it?

Marik: We microwaved it! grin

Malik: Yes. So Otogi has no pets.

Marik: Well, Bakura has Frankensnakie.

Malik: That thing isn't even an animal! It's bits of lots of other animals sewn together!

Marik: It still counts!

Malik: Fine, Frankensnakie counts. But that's only one pet out of everyone we know, so you're still losing this argument.

Marik: Kaiba has a dog.

Malik: That's not his pet, it's his boyfriend, baka.

Marik; Still counts. Folds arms and pouts

Malik: Fine.

Marik: Pharaoh has Yugi.

Malik: Is Yugi an animal?

Marik: Yup. Yugi is a bushbaby!!

Malik: ...? Ok, I guess I have no argument there. Who else?

Marik: You have 'Harley-chan'.

Malik: That's completely different! Harley-chan is not a pet!! It's a soul mate!!

Marik: You talk to it, though. And take it for walks.

Malik: Hmph. sulking Fine.

Marik: Hee. giggle So can I have a pet?? Pleasepleaseplease hikari!!! whine

Malik: sigh Fine, but nothing bigger than a dog and nothing that will bite, scratch, poison or lick me.

Marik: But I'm still allowed to lick you, right?

Malik: nod

Marik: Good! licks

Malik: Wipes off yami-drool Ok, I'm going to walk Harley-chan now, so you can go and find your pet. And if I don't like it we can always microwave it, or something.

Marik: Give it to Bakura, he'll eat anything.

Malik: True, ok then.
