[It had taken the young boy a while to place the device down once it was on he moved back. But there was something different. He wasn't in his wheelchair like he normally was. Instead he appeared to be on crutches instead.]

Hey... I've been meaning to do this for a while, but never found the time between checking deliveries, hospital appointments and paperwork for the stores. [He moved slightly, finally going to sit down slowly in front of the device, putting the crutches to the side. Once he was comfortable, he figured he should speak.]

I have been meaning to try and advertise jobs for my game shops. It's not tough work, it's mostly just selling products and making sure stock doesn't get low for the most part. But I do have Assistant Managers jobs for both places. [He paused.] I am asking for help because I keep being told to not over do it. So in order to do that, I would need to get at least one other person here. But my pitch probably isn't that great.

[He laughed slightly, mostly to himself.] But I tried. That's all that matters. Taking steps at a time.

[He was quiet, looking to the side for a brief moment before looking back.]

But apart from that, as you can tell I'm finally out of the wheelchair. I have to use crutches for the next couple of months or so but I don't mind. It means I'm still healing, still getting better. It's... the walking thing that's going to be a pain after so long though.

[He smiled before looking to the side again and leaning over. After a moment he appears to have a box in his hands.]

So, because of it, I kind of wanted to give something to those who helped me. As a way of saying thank you. It's silly, but after what I've been though, I felt like I should.

[When he was done he had switched the feed to private for two particular people.]

[Private to Ryou and Atem]

This... might sound odd, but is it okay if I speak to you both in private? I've been told talking helps and I need to talk about something to help me.

To be honest, I'm still not familiar with many of the modern area's dishes, unless it something like those burgers you like or the meal I had when I hung out with Anzu.

[ You remember that one, Yugi. The 'date' you set him up on. ]

I'm not sure what's out there that could be comparable to what I know.

Then I'll just have to teach you while I'm learning to cook. Though... Even though I've been here for a while still not great at certain things.

[Basic cooking was at least a given to what he could do.]

Probably not comparable though. But I wouldn't honestly know.

[Action]

[duelistoflegend]

[ Yes, Yugi, teach him to cook. ]

We could always figure it out together.

[ Sounds like fun, actually. ]

One of these days, I'll have to actually take a look to see if I can find anything I'm familiar with.

You know you could do that anytime. Take a day off and just explore.

[Admittedly he had done that to begin with anyway when he was newer around here.]

See which city helps more in that aspect.

[duelistoflegend]

I could, but I wouldn't want to leave the shop without someone to watch over it.

[ And who was the one telling Yugi he was overworking himself and comparing him to Kaiba?

Pot, meet kettle. The two of you will be the best of friends. ]

Mmm. True. Perhaps there is something around here with a bit of Egyptian flair, right, Aibou?

Now you know what I was like. Though now I just rely on natives here who are willing to work since I hire them as well.

[It works out really since not many of the people like them were all that interested.]

Who knows, I mean this whole place is full of surprises. But it would be fun to figure out, don't you think?

[Action]

[duelistoflegend]

It makes one wonder how your Grandfather handled it all.

Of course. I would love to be able to share it with you as well, Aibou. [ A pause, before he adds a bit contemplatively. ] Without the life or death experiences and saving the world, of course.

We were never, busy, busy so I guess that is part of it.

[he couldn't help but give a light chuckle.]

Yeah, I think even here I've had my share that I think I'm done. We just have tp try and avoid that kind of thing if we can help it.

[Action]

[duelistoflegend]

True.

[ Even after everything that has happened, the fact that Yugi can still chuckle at that... there's a brief twitch of Atem's lips and a surge of feeling inside of himself. He's proud of Yugi and the young man that he's becoming. Atem has faith in his partner and is sad that he won't be around to see the man that he will ultimately become. ]

Unless we can save the world from the comfort of our own home. That's something I wouldn't mind trying.

[sizedoesntmatter]

I doubt that would happen. But one has to hope.

[Said jokingly of course but he figured at least for now he was at least okay with nothing happening for a while longer. He moved to go to the living for the time being.]

Until then we can relax which is good.
