Characters: Yami Bakura and Nanami & and whoever would like to visit them.
Location: Hospital
Rating: PG-13
Time: May 21st – May 26th
Description: Yami Bakura and Nanami share a hospital room after their disastrous mission in Venezuela. Yami Bakura will be unconscious until May 25th, but Nanami will be here all week folks awake for the most part.


The room was silent with the exception of the machines beeping to remind visitors that the two bodies in the room were still warm. Nanami spent her time awake staring at the ceiling or out the window and periodically glancing over at her dormant partner in the other hospital bed that occupied the room.

He was covered in various bandages with bruises peeking out from behind them. His hair was sticking out in a more ridiculous manner than usual due to the bandage wrapped around his head like some sweatband from the 80’s. She had been updated on his condition shortly after she regained consciousness and besides the things you could see he had also twisted an ankle and had been poisoned by one of the monsters they had tried to fight off. The antidote had been administered shortly after they had arrived at the hospital but he was still unconscious.

Nanami hadn’t managed to get off scot-free either. Aside from the usual cuts, scrapes and bruises she had some deep lacerations on the left side of her back that had been stitched up and she was still anemic.

Comments

[pregames]

They had. As in Nanami and Bakura. It was strange to think about him that way. When Atem wasn't think about Bakura as an antagonist he wasn't really thinking about him much at all.

For a fleeting moment he was conflicted, wanting to ask how Nanami could get mixed up with someone like that. At the very least, inquire after what happened. But that wouldn't make for a very good distraction.

So he sighed soundlessly and smiled in a reassuring way. "When you recover then. Or perhaps a bit before. That sort of thing can be good for you after all."

[morecowbell]

Nanami was still quite oblivious to Atem and Bakura's past relationship even though it had been alluded to by Bakura two or three times before, there had simply been no names attached only vague identifiers like 'they' and 'them'.

She tilted her head back and forth thinking. "I've been meaning to visit India for some time now but that's more for business rather than pleasure."

[pregames]

“India... I was near there on a mission not too long ago.” The pharaoh is vaguely reminiscent without feeling any particular fondness. Not when it was so cold. Not that he is aware of the vast diversity of a place like India. Still, it never occurred to him that anyone might work outside the city save for said missions.

"But if that's business then it hardly counts. You have to make time for yourself."

[morecowbell]

"Yes, that's true, but after a while you can only do so much by yourself before it becomes rather mundane." She had been to the spa a couple of times but she really didn't 'hang out' with anyone so she either spent her time shopping or reading in the condo.

[pregames]

Planting his hands on, Atem averts his gaze, as if distracted. Suddenly retrieving a thought that her dismissal had excavated from his own mind. It had simply never occurred to him until..

"Now that you mention it. I think I am rather overdue for a break myself."

/"Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?"

[morecowbell]

She straightened up a little and looked at him thoughtfully for a moment. "Let's go somewhere, let's take a little vacation."

I think so, Brain, but where will we find a duck and a hose at this hour?

[pregames]

And that deserved a sort of 'just as planned' look, not that he would say so. "Oh? Where would you suggest?"

<333

[morecowbell]

"Bora Bora unless of course you have a better idea. I suppose it would also depend on what type of activities you'd like to participate in."

[pregames]

He offers a cool shrug. He supposes it's obvious by now that he's never heard of that on. "If it is a vacation, then I expect we should be able to relax and simply live like kings if only for a day. Of course it should also be fun. Some place known for a good game or two would not hurt either."

[morecowbell]

Blasphemy, all these people who don't know about Bora Bora. She smiles a little slyly at him. "It sounds to me like you're describing Las Vegas. You know what else they have in Vegas? A pyramid."

Does this mean you're staying at the Luxor? XD

[pregames]

Perhaps that just means she needs need to introduce them...

But now she has his full attention, couple with a rather incredulous look. "Even if that is true... that would not do us much good." He may be curious but a pyramid is just a tomb by his estimation.

No, this means WE'RE staying at the Luxor. =D Let's jump on the beds.

[morecowbell]

Nanami looked confused for a second, "Oh! No, it's not a real pyramid," and she laughed only for a second because wow that jostled her stitches and felt kind of weird and a little painful. "It's a hotel shaped like a pyramid. It's all themed."

Ahhhhhh typos :T

[pregames]

Of course it wasn't a real pyramid. Even after six months Atem was still getting thrown for these little looks and while he didn't find it quite so funny, he could roll his eyes. There was something unsettling about artefacts of Egypt in this world, passed down and transformed by time. Each time he faced a new one he was never quite sure of how to react. Today, it was head on.

“It sounds like we should stay there then.”

[morecowbell]

"There's a lot of really high class hotels there, the Bellagio, Caesars Palace, The Mirage, MGM Grand, and Trump Hotel." Clearly she's read quite a few travel brochures on the place. "If they took credit cards here, I could try them all. And there's so much to do there. Shopping, shows, concerts, casinos, clubs, dining..."

[pregames]

Now it was Atem's turn to laugh. Even if he hadn't been convinced, it would seem that Nanami already was. "Alright, alright. It also sounds like we could spend a month there." With that much to see and do... he was trying to picture it but there was nothing to compare.

[morecowbell]

"I wish," she sighed a little bit, "I have to get back to work soon or I won't be able to cover my part of the rent."

[pregames]

“Well... at least it’s not going anywhere.” Implying they could always go back. The mirrors were useful like that. “So it is a date?”

[morecowbell]

"Yes. It's a date."
