[ It was a cozy space. Large enough for the two of them to fit comfortably, but not much bigger than that. He closed his eyes and relaxed as Yugi slipped in, then smiled softly at him. ]

I never went. Many businessmen prefer to make deals in this environment, but I refused. I didn't trust my business partners that much.

[ He rolled his head and shoulders back, easing the tension there. Mm, that felt good. ]

How was your second day?

[sizedoesntmatter]

[Yugi leaned back slightly, looking over.]

Wait, businessman really made deals in places like this? [He was admittedly surprised to say the least.]

Second Day was... something... Ended up in a cave. Yours?

[blue_ice]

Mm. The sauna too. They believed the setting made people more honest. But I wanted no part of it.

[ His eyebrow arched as he looked over at Yugi. ]

Same. I saw another memory...and we had to talk about it. Della thinks we're supposed to help each other recover from something...

[ He doesn't know what he believes yet. He's oddly quiet. ]

[sizedoesntmatter]

In a werid way... that makes sense. I mean you are usually exposed to a certain extent in both situations. [So he understood the meaning behind, but he couldn't actually say if people would be honest when that exposed.]

Same here...Though... I'm not honestly sure... what I would need to recover from honestly.

[The memories he got he was being quiet about also, but he could hazard a guess what they needed help with, but him? He knew really there wasn't much.]

Unless it's an underlying thing... But who knows. Maybe before we leave we'll figure it out. But for now we are here to relax, or try.

[blue_ice]

You're the expert at helping people. How many times did you try to get through to me before I listened?

[ He shifts closer to Yugi, extending a hand and gently poking his shoulder. ]

I did sleep well last night...mm. I'd much rather sleep near you than the lunatic who destroyed my bunk.

[ Is that weird flirting? It...might be. ]

[sizedoesntmatter]

I...lost count.

[Was he joking? He knows, but he did seem to make it sound like a little tease. But soon the teasing is over and a small blush appearing on his face, but it could also just be from the heat.]

I mean...That's nice to hear though sorry that your bunk got destroyed.

[blue_ice]

You have more patience than I deserve.

[ He sinks further in, up to his neck, and draws his knees up. ]

It's fine. I'm amazed by how few enemies I've made up until this point. There had to be one.

[sizedoesntmatter]

[He sinks further for a moment, before moving in slightly closer to the other.]

But maybe finding someone with patience was what you needed.

[He soon looked on at the water quietly, watching the steam rise up.]

I guess so... There is always going to be someone who doesn't like you. Like I am sure there is someone out there who might not like me.

[blue_ice]

I'm used to being the enemy of most of the world. Having so many...close is the weirdest part.

If someone would dare to say that about you, they're likely someone like I used to be. Who likes to look down on others for caring. But I know I was wrong, at least partially.

[ The closeness is nice. That supersedes his embarrassment, at least. ]

Letting yourself feel things openly is its own strength. Risking vulnerability to forge a stronger bond...it's harder than shutting off, in a way. You showed me how.

[sizedoesntmatter]

I'm sure you'll get used to having so many people close to you.


Not necessarily. It's also possible that the way I am just and can rub people the wrong way and it's not necessarily because they are looking down on others. I understand that I can't be friends with everyone because of it and that is perfectly fine.

[He leaned over slightly resting his head on the other.]

I'm glad that you are doing that. Even since we got here you've gone through quite a change compared to back home.

[blue_ice]

It's a lot harder to be the detached elite without money, the weight of a corporation, or a tower fortress.

[ Yugi settled on his shoulder, and he smiled, draping a loose arm around him to keep him there. ]

Just remember that even as cramped as the train is, you're the one who chooses who gets close to you. And I chose you.

[sizedoesntmatter]

You are right about that and there are various kinds of close. Like I have plenty of people I'm close to in a way of friends. [Some are closer than others as he gets to know them, but they are still there and he lets them in when necessary.]

You're the only one who I choose to be close to in ways like this.
