The Last Thing To Forget

"'I have determined that it is my sole purpose in life to set a bad example,'" Bakura declared.

Ryou snorted. "Oh, that explains so much, 'Kura," he teased.

Huffing a laugh of his own, Bakura said, "Malik and Marik are being very hypocritical, I think. After all, they're worse than I ever thought about being."

"Are you sure you didn't eventhink about being worse?" Ryou asked, arching one platinum brow. His lover had certainly been getting into this game, too much so for his peace of mind. Ryou had actually been hoping that everybody would have gotten tired of playing by now.

Silly him.

"Well, maybe I did," Bakura allowed. His blood red eyes twinkling with hidden mischief, he drawled, "You know the memory is the first thing to go, hikari."

Rolling his eyes, Ryou smiled. Bakura had spent those five thousand years locked in the Millennium Ring; without a human body, his memory wouldn't have degraded at all. "That explains our most esteemed Pharaoh, then," he said dryly.

Snickering, Bakura said, "Oh, that's priceless! I'll have to remind him of that…" An evil glint lit his eyes. Unfortunately for Ryou's sanity – and his libido – it was the one that meant he was dreaming up all sorts of wicked pranks to play on others, not the one that meant he was dreaming up sinful things to do to his lover.

Sighing in feigned resignation, Ryou watched as his yami ran off to find an appropriate insult for the memory-deprived Morning Star in their midst. He'd been hoping for a few days downtime from this game of insult tag he and the others had going. Unfortunately, Ryou had a feeling that no matter what he tried, Bakura wouldn't forget about this game for very long.

An evil light lit his brown eyes. "Perhaps if I tried to…persuade him using more tried and true methods…" Staring at the door through which his yami had disappeared, Ryou began to plan his seduction. Bakura wouldn't be forgetting this anytime soon.
