Tch...you're right. I wouldn't. [Malik looks down at his hand again, a frown tugging at his lips.]

I've already split mine into five pieces. [He picks up the Rod again and then moves to set it aside.]

I'm going to test it. [Letting go of the Rod, his body moves to collapse again before suddenly jerking back, not unlike the reaction one has when they're suddenly awake after drifting off.]

...Ugh.

Don't take too long. With that weak fragment, it'll be troublesome to move before long. It's okay in smaller vessels, but it's a pain to keep working with larger ones.

[Bakura flashes him a shark-like grin over his shoulder.]

I'll leave you to your shower. Unless you wanted company.

[Even his arms felt like they weighed a ton. Malik could move, but it was sluggish and tiresome. Really, all he could do in this state was grab the Rod if it fell.

He supposes that's all he really had to do, and thus leaned over to do just that, breathing a sigh of relief as his body came in contact with his soul container.]

Keh. Not this time, Bakura.

Some other time, then. Have fun.

[And don't drop the ~~soap~~ Rod!

He'll just go back outside, drop down on the couch and let Ryou in charge with a firm he's fine.]

[A little while later, Malik's finished his shower and steps out of the bathroom with a towel thrown over his shoulders and another wrapped around his waist. The Rod, of course, was also in his hand.

It seems he'd forgotten to bring a change of clothing with him, and so he silently made his way over to the bedroom.]

[Ryou had been thinking seriously since their talk, studying his hand thoughtfully every so often. He set down the little figure in his hand and looked over - though his face burnt a little at the realization Malik hadn't gotten dressed.

At least he kept his towel on.]

Malik-kun! Please sit with me a while.

[When you're dressed, hopefully.]

... [In his towel? Malik gives Ryou a dubious look before heading into the bedroom.] Give me a minute.

[As promised, he comes out a minute later and sits next to Ryou in his usual clothing, barring the midriff shirt. It seems he was still a bit sore over those scars.]

What is it? [At least his mood seemed level, for once.]

[Oh thank God. Ryou clears his throat awkwardly.]

Malik... have you ever been tested for... for any sort of blood disease?

[Leaning back and crossing his legs, Malik makes himself comfortable.]

...Blood disease? [He sounds more confused than offended, but it doesn't take him long to figure out why Ryou is asking.] No.

...

[...he hopes the nurse has the resources to run tests like that because once he's out of here he's checking the hell out of this.]

Never at all? Didn't you even think about possible infection when you did the blood oath?

[Wait.]

...Malik, do you use condoms when you and the other me... do stuff?

Infection? [He lets out a derisive laugh.] Neither of us are sick, Ryou.

[He's looking a bit more irritated by that second question. Mostly because the new word throws him off enough to not be sure what Ryou is referring to.] ..."Condoms"? I don't know what that is. And for what stuff? Stop being so vague!

You wouldn't know if there was a blood disease in your family because you need to be tested for it!

[Ryou winces a little. Really? Malik didn't even know? Thinking about it, the nurse gave him some last time he was there, murmuring to him about safety. She seemed to think- oh god. Did everyone think they were screwing?]

You... you're meant to put them on your... uhm. [He points at Malik's crotch.] When you do... intimate stuff.

Have you really been messing around with the other me without either of you talking about safety?!

[Well, Malik was pretty sure he didn't have a blood disease, so he didn't see any reason to go find out.

He folds his arms now, looking a bit embarrassed (not to mention surprised) when Ryou suddenly points to his crotch.]

... [Not wishing to appear caught off-guard for too long, he lets out another chuckle.] Uhh? Safety from what...? It's not like it's going to bite me.

And boys can't get pregnant. [He knew that.]

[...oh my god, his other self was screwing an idiot.

Ryou clutches his hair with a helpless sound of frustration, for once actually annoyed. It was bad enough being used as a puppet by this guy, knowing they were doing things with his body he'd never agree to normally, but this?]

But! What if you're carrying a disease and you give it to me?! Pregnancy isn't the only thing that can go wrong with things like this! You should at least ask the nurse to check you over!

[Malik shrugs and flops back against the armrest and spreading himself out across the couch. Ryou suddenly becomes a footrest.]

I won't! I already told you I'm not sick. Besides, how would that give you a disease?

[It was less a question and more a statement to mock Ryou's paranoia. Hell, he still wasn't sure why the whole "blood oath" thing was a problem.]

Edited 2013-09-27 04:38 (UTC)

[His face is burning, oh god, why. He shoves Malik's feet off of him, irritably.]

Blood diseases and sexually transmitted ones are carried in bodily fluids, Malik! You wouldn't even know if you were sick! That's why you need to be tested!

[The shove surprises him, and Malik growls in response as he bends his knees to plant his feet on the couch cushion instead.]

What? [This was news to him, if it was even true.] Whatever, I'm fine.

Edited 2013-09-27 04:48 (UTC)

You don't know that! You should come with me to the nurse and get tested!

[He puts his hands on Malik's knees, staring over at him.]

...though it might be too late.

I don't feel like it.

[He yanks one knee out from under Ryou's hand and then the other before setting them both down again.]

Kehkeh...I guess you're just out of luck then, Ryou!

It's too late for me anyway! You've already gotten your blood inside of me, after all.

Besides, the other me is constantly making me wake up with the taste of blood, so there's probably no hope of my getting out of this healthy anyway.

Blood? Kehkeh...that's not the only thing I've gotten inside you. [He's saying it just to fluster Ryou, but Malik almost immediately regrets having done so.

That memory was gross, and embarrassing! ...Did he really kiss that mouth?!

He covers his face with a hand and lets out a groan.]

[brb mind rebooting]

Eh?!

[Ew ew ew okay brb toothbrushing time. His face is so red you could probably fry fish on it.]

Excuse me... I need to clean my mouth.

... [Malik's just going to...sit here...with his hands over his burning face.]

[A few minutes later, Ryou returns with a fresher smile that he won't be showing just yet. A thought occured to him in there. It's possible the other him just took over for a long time, right? It's happened before. That means he can't assume Malik is the bottom in this relationship, idiot though he seems. Meep.]

Uhm... Malik-kun? You meant in my mouth, right?

[Oh god why are you making him say this, you jerk!]

[By the time Ryou comes back out, Malik's managed to compose himself again. He's also sitting up again, shoved off into the corner of the couch like a grumpy teenager.

...He was a grumpy teenager.

Ryou's question manages to fluster him all over again.] You fool, don't ask me something like that!
