the_campus | An interesting development...

[To say that the other Yugi had been watching like a hawk after the puzzle was stolen would be an understatement. Usually, he was more than happy to lazily watch from the back of their mind, or just rifle through their memories when he "woke up" after resting for a while. But lately, he'd been staying "awake," keeping an eye out for threats and carefully steering Yugi around if he sensed one.

But it had given him an odd view he hadn't before. Normally, he'd been happy enough to just watch and let his other personality enjoy himself, but now... he felt a desire to do a few things himself. And so, he'd done something he never did before. Two things, in fact.

The first was that, when he took over, he let Yugi stay awake -- and why not? There was nothing he needed to protect Yugi from now. The second...

Was that he had asked permission, first. Yugi had been shocked -- cute little other half he was -- but agreed, and now he seemed fascinated by the feeling, or lack thereof.

Right now, the other Yugi can be found wandering most anywhere around the Campus, occasionally pausing on the roof for a breath of air or the lounge to munch on a snack.]

This card represents the future. It's a sword card, like the one before it; this one is the five of swords. It refers to a conflict that has to be won at all costs.

[Yugi frowns a little at that worriedly, looking at the card. Yami, on the other hand, doesn't look ruffled at all.]

Heh... that one's a little late, but I suppose history does repeat itself.

I'd be careful regardless... because it can also mean that someone will try to sabotage you to steal the victory.

[He lets his hand move to number four.]

This card is supposed to be a hint, to show you what to do. Want to see?

[As if that hasn't happened before either... but he lets it go, just watching Ryou's hand.]

Of course.

Wands refer to the soul, and nature of a person. The seven of wands tells you to stand strong, even if it seems hopeless, and accept whatever challenges are offered. Compromises won't be possible, and the challenges may be seem endless. You may be challenged by a foe that it seems impossible to beat, and it'll be dangerous, but standing down or accepting loss isn't an option.

Interesting...

[Well, he's already got that covered. Yugi looks at him a bit worriedly, but seems to settle at the calm look on Yami's face.]

Next?

The fifth card is supposed to refer to outside influences.

This is part of the major arcana unlike the others. The minor arcana that you've seen refer to things relating to you; the major arcana are things related to the universe in general. That's why some people will just use the major arcana for generic questions.

The "Magician" card says that there's an opportunity ongoing - or upcoming - that will let your strongest desires come true.

It's considered a good omen to get this card when you have a particular wish in mind... because this card usually means that wish has a strong chance of coming true.

So the wish of our friends coming here, double-edged as it is, seems at least to have a good chance to come true, then?

[Yugi looks at the card, a little conflicted and definitely in thought. Jounouchi-kun had been here for a little while... and it would be nice to have Anzu here too, and Honda-kun...

But at the same time, then they'd be stuck here and in danger the same as he was.]

Yeah... but somehow, I feel like it'll be a little bad for them if it does. And they might not even remember us.

[Like Yugi.]

But it's still a hopeful sign.

Or they'll be from some other dimension, like Joey. But even so, I'd imagine our friendship is strong enough to last even through memory loss.

After all... we're friends, aren't we, Ryou?

Of course we are! [He smiled brightly.] Even if you don't remember what happened, that won't change.

An interesting development...
