"Hey, we're here!"
"Wow, Kaiba, this place is big!"
"Yeah, man-- have you ever gotten lost?"
"Where's my bag?"
"Who knows the number for a cab?"
"Hey, Yuug, can I crash at your place?"
"Here's your donuts, Joey."
"Ok now, who has my keys-- oh, here they are."
"Now that we're home can we bury the donuts or something?"
"Hey, Tea, you gotta wake up now."
"Hello? Yeah, we'd like to get a cab sent to--"
"No, that's my bag, here's yours-"
"I'm not burying those, man-- they'd rise from the ground and haunt us."
"We're back already?"
"Who's got some cash?"
"We're getting together tomorrow, right?"
"I think I've got a couple bucks--"
"Yeah, I'll meet you at the shop, I want to see those cards."
"Are you coming to Yuugi's, Tea?"
"I guess so, I can walk from there. I think I've got some money, who has my purse?
"You can drop me off at Yuugi's-- I left my bike there."
"So ... just one cab, then, right?"
"Yeah, seems like."
"Mai, what about you?"
"Mai?"
"Hey ... earth to Mai."
"Mai? Are you ok?"
"Huh? Oh ... oh, just tired."
"You going to Yuugi's?"
"No ... I think I'll just go home."
"Aw, come on Mai, we're going to celebrate."
"I'm hungry, we'll pick up some food-"
"You're always hungry."
"Anything but donuts."
"No ..."
"Come on Mai, we only got one taxi and you live all the way across town."
"Joey!"
"It's ok, I'll just walk, it's not that far."
"But it's late, you might get hurt."
"Tea, I'll be fine. Look, here's your cab. You guys go on, I'll call you, ok?"
"But--"
"Really, Tea, it's ok. Here, take my bag, I'll get it back tomorrow."
***
"Why didn't you go with your friends?"
"It'll be easier to just walk home."
"Bull."
"I didn't say quicker, I said easier."
"Ah."
"Kaiba-- oh hell with it-- can I stay here tonight?"
"What?!"
"I'll sleep in the guest room, surely in a house this size you must have a guest room, I just-- I don't want to celebrate tonight.
"Go home, then."
"I don't really want to be alone, either."
"Monster under your bed?"
"Yeah. Something like that. Please."
"But why here?"
" I guess, I--"
"Big brother, where are you?"
"No. I can't let you. Goodnight, Mai."

What was that? Why did she want to stay here? What kind of trick was it? What kind of humiliating information did she hope to obtain? And Seto, you were ready to let her stay. Stupid! That's right, cover your face and sigh wistfully. Such a stupid, weak, careless little boy. No wonder Pegasus was able to overpower you so easily. Someone shows the slightest bit of inadvertent interest and you think they care about you. I thought you were supposed to be smart, Kaiba-boy. No one cared before, and now--
Seto, now you're strictly second-quality. You're tainted. Maybe if you paid someone--
Hell, you ought to be thankful that Pegasus didn't charge you for the privilege. Pity you can't remember, because that's probably the best you're ever going to get.
But she was shaking.
Probably still reeling with disgust from waking up next to you, having to untangle her hair from you hands. Do you really think she wanted to be around you?
But there was blood on her shoes. Something happened. Did she try to find Mokuba?
If she did, it was only because she got stuck playing the heroine while Yuugi saved your ass. How does it feel, Kaiba-boy? Being indebted to your rival and his groupies?
I pay my debts. I always pay my debts.
Better get started then, Seto-boy.

" Send out the limo, go west from the house. Look for a lady. Tall, blond hair, brown boots. Offer her a ride. Her home only. Because it's late and she was too stupid to take a cab, that's why."
