[ After that strange little coffee date, things changed for Seto. He now knew that Yugi was one of the most important people in his life...but did Yugi know that?
He smiled when he spotted the familiar hair on the street and rushed forth, regardless of the tense situation in the city. ]
[He looked puzzled. DId he remember anything else. What was he on, about. Sure he had seen someone who looked like him in his dreams, but he didn't even know what those meant or why.]
[ A brief flicker of a frown passes Seto's face. He reaches inside his shirt and pulls out a locket, a silvery-black ring dangling over the photo frame.
He opens it, revealing the old picture of the two of them at that first dance night. ]
We've known each other for a long time. I was tricked into forgetting you too...but you have friends and family waiting for you. You're not as alone as you think.
[ He takes a step forward, chances reaching for his arm. ]
You're being lied to. The fools in charge of this illusion want you to believe you're alone, because when your friends are behind you...you're the strongest force I've ever met.
Look, I hate titles like these, but...you're a hero, Yugi. And the king of games, too. I'm still aiming to beat you someday. But I like being with you better.
[ Come on. Remember that, at least? Seto tries to make his jacket flare like his favorite dueling coat, but...the material's just not the same, the effect isn't quite there. ]
[He moved to step back. He really didn't understand why the other was so positive about this. For all he knew there could be another he looks exactly like him. So to say he was kinda scared would be an understatement currently
He did thought feel a sense of some of the words seeming familiar and the memory of actually having friends. But those had just been dreams. Right?]
Listen. I'm sure the Yugi you are looking for will remember you, but that is not me. At all. Now I should be going. I have things to do.
[ Seto's face falls. How can he not remember...how....
He digs into his pocket for one last chance. One last...if this doesn't shake a memory loose, he's fairly sure nothing will. Heart of the cards, right....?
Monster Reborn is held up, pinched between his fingers. ]
You gave this to me once. You said I needed to let go and not try to resurrect what was dead and gone. But you're not gone, the asshole in charge of this place has just tried to keep you in the dark!
[ He offers the card, face solemn, eyes begging him to remember. ]
[There seemed to be a hint of remembrance this time as Yugi lightly placed a hand on his head. But it was only for the briefest of moments. He could recall something like that, a brief memory.
He shook his head as if he was trying to shake it away, but the more he thought about it, the more memories flickered by now and again. He felt like he could honestly drown with the way they did, but of course he wasn't in any area of water.
It seemed like he had been quiet for a good while, hand to his head once again before he glanced over.]

Yugi! I've been looking for you everywhere.
[ See how he relates to that, first. ]

Ah! Ah, it's you from the coffee shop. Why are you looking for me? Did I forget something?
