High And Mighty Pharaohs And The Hikaris Who Humor Them


'You ever heard of the gravestone engraving that goes, 'He was a simple man who died of complications'?'

'Well, what's more complicated than a puzzle that can only be assembled and solved by the reincarnated light half of your soul?'

"Not that being Pharaoh was really a 'simple' job," Yami groused at the hand-lettered bumper sticker in his hands.

"So you're saying you were a complicated man who died of his own innate arrogance?" Yugi asked archly.

Slanting his hikari a rather miffed look, Yami said, "You said it, not me."

"How clever," Yugi retorted drolly. Not, he added silently.

"And I also say that it is high time I got to work paying back the rest of our group for these insults," Yami stated firmly.

This should be good, Yugi thought mirthfully. Out loud he only said, "Hopefully you'll come up with better insults than everybody else has."

A sly gleam entering his eyes, Yami said, "Oh, I've got the perfect one for Kaiba…"

Yugi smirked at the sight of his lover in mid-machination. "Do tell…" he purred.
