[He takes the white side of the board, of course. And surprise surprise - why does his queen look suspiciously like a Blue Eyes]

White goes first.

[One of his pawns moves forward two spaces in a classic chess opening move]

[puzzlers]

[ probably the same reason yugi's queen looks like gandora.

Naturally.

[ he moves the black pawn in the same column[?] only one space. ]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Glances at the unfamiliar and obviously inferior dragon]

And that is---?

[puzzlers]

[ first of all, excuse you,
and second of all, excuse you. ]

Gandora-X the Dragon of Demolition.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Never heard of it.

[puzzlers]

Your loss.

[ not that he thinks intensity will see it that way. ]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[A dramatic wave of his hand and another pawns moves]

Kuriboh not good enough to be your Queen?

[puzzlers]

He'd much rather be yours.

[ another one of his pawns moves as well. ]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Huffs. Irritably.

Well actually he's been pretty irritable this whole time, but--]

I only have one pride and soul.




[Raises an eye at Yugi's mirroring of his actions.

...

Moves a knight]

[puzzlers]

[ his foul mood has been noted and has yugi wondering why... but this is the unfortunate culmination of his shit talking and intensity’s challenge. ]

[ “mirrored”. he moved his two pawns in such a way that they can protect each other,

not to mention he’s free to move his bishop now, which he does. ]

Of course. This wouldn’t be the first time Blue-Eyes and Gandora have met on the battlefield...

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Laughs.

And laughs and laughs and laughs and---]

Well at least you have the decency to take them in private now. Certainly being on pep!pep! makes that affordable.

[puzzlers]

[ oh, wow, ok. ]

[ his memories are a sore spot and while intensity should know that he clearly doesn’t give two shits. ]

[ the snub at his team doesn’t help any either. ]

Intensity, shut the fuck up and make your move. [ he has no desire to be here anymore and once he’s finished thoroughly trouncing this asshole he’s leaving. ]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[He moves another pawn, leaving a different one wide open to attack]

Don't like the tables turned on you?

And here I thought we were friends.

[puzzlers]

[ he’s not rising to the bait of either. ]

[ just makes a motion with his hand to send out his knight. ]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Ah, I see.

[Then if Yugi won't take his pawn, he'll take the one that is very obviously protected on Yugi's side of the field]

We're only friends when it's convenient for you.

[puzzlers]

You know how I feel about my memories, Intensity, and taking a shot like that isn't something a friend would do, but then did you ever actually consider us friends?

[ he'll capture the piece that's taken his pawn with his other pawn. ]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Is that the definition then?

[Just laughs at that statement]

Then you must have never considered me one because you've taken similar shots at me.

[puzzlers]

Have I? I've tried to avoid hitting any of your real triggers. You told me you didn't like to be shocked, so I stopped, and you didn't seem to like when we talk about King, so I stopped.

I don't care if you talk shit about playing games, but what I don't appreciate is a low blow like that.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[The entire vid room shuts down with a snap of his fingers because this is definitely not a conversation Intensity is having broadcasted]

Right. Not talking about King has been all for my sake.

Have you told him about the nightmares?

[puzzlers]

[ that is probably for the best. ]

I didn't say it was all for your benefit. If you wanted to talk about him or about what happened, any of it, then I wouldn't mind.

No. I was hoping to get that somewhat sorted and more manageable first. [ and he's pretty sure it's as good as it's going to get. ] You and Yvette, obviously, are the only two people that know.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

There's nothing to talk about.

[He left Intensity once, but never again. Done and done.]

If the nightmares had stopped, would you have told him?

[puzzlers]

[ nothing to talk about... ]

Of course. [ keeping his mouth shut is part of the reason all of that happened. ] I didn't want to worry him.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[NOTHING TO TALK ABOUT]

Really? That's what you're going with?

[Scoffs]

That's the lamest excuse I've ever heard.

[puzzlers]

[ SEE!!! not that we're talking about it BUT THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT HE WAS TALKING ABOUT. ]

I don't want him trying to blame himself, Intensity. It's not like it's his fault I feel guilty.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Then stop feeling guilty! Problem solved!
