Finally, I
thought, they’d never get this bug fixed! I still got another two chappies
waiting to be put up. Well first things first, enjoy this one here. I admit, my
choice for Jou’s costume is somewhat..corny-just read on, you’ll see what I mean.
Saelbu, Kat,
thanks for the warm welcome. It’s good to be back.
Ja ne!^^

He had
waited.
Patiently.
Until everyone
else had gotten second helpings.
Only then
had he allowed himself to near the buffet and load his plate with food.
And loading
it he did, good grief, Kaiba nearly dropped his plate when he saw Jou’s.
The blond
ate at lightning speed, but at least remembered his manners, and resisted the
urge to simply shovel it in.
Mere
minutes later, he dove in for seconds, and returned soon enough for round
three.
“If I
weren’t you, I would be sick by now” stated Kanashimi, sneering at Katsuya’s
behaviour.
“Hey, I’m
still growing, ‘sides, I didn’t get any since this morning, so back off!” shot
the blond back.
Kaiba
cocked a brow.
“Even then,
that is no reason, attempting to suffocate yourself with the Eggs Benédict. Or
the tako-yaki for that matter.”
A cold
smirk crossed the CEO’s face.
“I will let
it slip for this time, inu, seeing how you actually gave some thought into
Mokuba’s present. Sadly enough, you lacked the same awareness when you chose
your costume.”
The smirk
grew even wider.
“Although I
must admit, it is quiet befitting. It’s even very accurate in it’s detail. No
really, it suits you, Jouno-yasha!”
Jounouchi
almost growled, but decided on a wild grin instead, displaying the fake fangs
proudly.
“Yeah, so
I’m dressed as Inuyasha, what’s it to you? Don’t’cha know it’s bad form to
insult your guest, Kaiba?”
Again, a
perfect brow was tilted.
“If I
recall correctly, it was you insulting me by rising your voice at
me, although I had only asked if the accomodations met your expectations.” Jou
huffed.
“I wasn’t yelling
at you-I mean, I didn’t mean t’ yell at you, it’s just, I’m
getting very defensive when it comes t’ food, kay?”
“Really? I
did not notice.”
Jou opened
his mouth to reply, but noticed Honda, Yugi and Yami shooting them worried
glances. Instead, he grabbed Kaiba’s arm and, pulling him out the large
ballroom, rasped:
“I’d rather
not fight with you in front of Mokuba. No point in spoiling the other’s fun.”
Kaiba
grunted.
“How
considerate. I must confess, I’m positively mystified, inu.”
Jou snarled,
as he practically threw the brunet into the hallway, kicking the door shut
behind him.
“Ok, that’s
it, I’ve had it! I tried to be civil, to behave, but you just can’t seem to let
it go! Just for this once, for your little brother’s sake, try to be
nice. Or is there a reason you’re always being such a prissy bitch?”
