Attentionshipping (Siegfried von Schroeder/Vivian Wong)
. . .
Vivian had nearly perfected the art of attracting rich sponsors. It was part of the reason she got to live the good life so much even though most professional duelists were struggling for matches. She knew how to put on a show—she had been a performer and an artist before she was a duelist, after all. And being pretty didn't hurt.
So she wasn't surprised when the young man gave her a swooping bow and a sultry sort of smile before presenting her with a rose in the middle of the after tournament party.
"For your splendid performance, my lady," he said, in heavily accented Chinese. "You most certainly deserved that win."
Vivian smiled, accepting the rose while she looked him over and sent her mind into a whirlwind of activity, trying to remember who this was. Ah! Yes, wait, the accent. It was German, right? He must be Siegfried von Schroeder, CEO of a company second only to Kaiba Corporation and Industrial Illusions. He might not be on top, but continuing to be competitive even against those two powerhouses was certainly a feat.
And she could probably benefit a lot from the eye of a man like him.
She sent him an even more dazzling smile, tucking the rose into one of her buns.
"It's beautiful," she said. "I'm very flattered. Mr…von Schroeder, isn't it?"
He looked pleased that she had recognized him, smoothing out the lapels of his coat as he straightened. He had a rose of his own pinned to his jacket, and it actually looked pretty good on him. It accented the shade of his hair perfectly.
"Of course, that is certainly me," he said. "And the rose only reflects your own beauty, Miss Wong."
Vivian made a show of tittering behind one hand, hiding her smirk behind her fingers. Oh wow, yeah, he was gonna be a fun one. She sidled a little bit closer and let part of her shawl slip of her shoulder.
"You know, no one's asked me to dance tonight yet," she said. "Have you gotten any offers?"
"None as of yet," he said with a flirty smile that matched her own. "Perhaps we could remedy that for each other."
She took the chance to press her advantage, sliding her hand into his and smiling.
"I would really love that, Mr. von Schroeder."

A/N: I cannot express to you all how little I care about either of these characters, I'm sorry. Next is Attachshipping (Mokuba x Kisara).
