[godcards]

I see.

...And how does that affect you?

[ outliving someone you love, whether you are a long-lived being or not... hard to relate. ]

[aitou]

He was my master.

[He says it like that should explain everything, because he is a sword and bad at this.]

[godcards]

...The only one?

[ ok. clearly this requires a different approach. ]

[aitou]

[Malik is doing his very best.

Yasusada nods.]

Until Aruji.

[godcards]

Who is Aruji?!

[ YAMS YOU ARE KILLING HIM. YOU'RE KILLING HIM, YAMS. ]

[aitou]

[HOW SHOULD HE KNOW THAT KASHUU APPARENTLY NEVER EXPLAINED ANYTHING]

Our current master. He's the one who gave us these bodies.

[godcards]

[ in kashuu's defense, malik never asked. he just accepted sweople as something that exists. ]

Oh? You aren't just... like that?

[aitou]

[That tracks for Malik tbh. Unfortunately yams doesn't know anything about yu-gi-oh and just stares at Malik in confusion]

We're swords.

[godcards]

Right, yes, I understand that part...

[aitou]

[



helpfully:]

Swords aren't people.

[godcards]

[ flatly: ] You're standing right there.

[aitou]

Right, but Aruji gave me this body. It's not my real one. [...] Well, I guess it kind of is, now, but--normally, we're spirits.
