I don't know that it would be Yugioh without Yugi...so here we go.

December 7th -- Yugi

It seemed everybody was pairing off for the holiday except him.

One of Ryou's more recent excuses was that he still had to get a gift for someone special. And he was sure that whatever Mokuba and Shizuka had been scheming together involved Kaiba and Jou both, on some level. Both of the latter seemed firmly in denial, so Yugi had some validation for his reasoning. Malik was distracted by something or other, aside from his yami's questions.

Mai was worrying over something that apparently had to do with Isis, who was in turn preoccupied with something herself. He'd lost track of Ryuuji, and keeping tabs on Honda was sporadic at best.

Meaning, everybody very likely had someone else for the holidays. Except for, of course, himself.

'Are you all right, Yugi?'

"Yeah, Yami. I'm fine. Just thinking."

'All right then.'

Although Yugi wasn't sure the spirit believed him...

xMizzxBx: The plan does involve both of them. Unfortunately, party not soon. The party shall (hopefully) be one of the best, and those are for last. Therefore, the party should be around the 21st-23rd kind of area. Not quite Christmas, but not too early either.

hittocerebattosai: Yes, Jou is most certainly doomed. But in a good way. His lil sis is evil like that. Isn't visionshipping adorable? And such fun to portray Mai differently like that.

Thunderstorm101: Puppyshipping and visionshipping are definitely my favorites. Mai is going to work up the nerve to ask Isis out. She hopes. Of course, Jou and Seto are doomed. Mokie and Shizu aren't half as innocent as everyone seems to think.

Midori-Jester: Glad you likes it.
