Orphanshipping (Mokuba Kaiba x Miruko/Mikey)
. . .
The teenager stopped in the middle of the shopping aisle and caused the person behind him to bump into him and swear. He ignored the finger that was brandished at him as the person wove around him—his eyes were claimed by something else.
Slowly, slowly, he approached the shelf. A small display, mostly ignored with just a few boxes left and scattered. He swallowed through a thick throat as he realized he knew exactly what this little robot figure was.
He picked up one of the boxes and turned it over.
"When did they start rereleasing these?" he murmured to himself.
His mind cast back to another robot figure. One held up in an accusing hand, half burned and broken, the scars of war and bombs and tanks melted into its plastic skin. To another boy that he never had and never would get to meet, who had cherished his single robot more than anything in the world.
Mokuba Kaiba bought the entire stock of new line Dyna Dudes and tossed the entire armful into the collection box outside for an organization that would give toys to kids whose parents couldn't afford it for Christmas.
It's not enough…but I hope you're happy, somewhere…
