flying with me won't be easy

[ Snake is standing in the lounge, by some cupboards where he's just made coffee. He's still dressed in his sneaking suit, but he's looking pale as a sheet. In his hand there's a mug of coffee but... it was visibly shaking as he brought it to his lips and took a drink.

Though he was facing away from the door, his facial expression shows he's feeling pretty shaken up. ]

Don't see that every day...

[ ooc: Off-screen, Snake and Snargon met and... had a fight, so the shooting range Snake made has bit the dust. Feel free to remember seeing a giant gray dragon ~~with a mustache~~ attacking the legendary soldier who was frantically dodging and rolling to get away! Also, Snargon does not breathe fire, so if your character saw the fight go down, then remember that! Nothing was scorched. ]

What? The Items won't work easily on others who use them. I can throw off the Rod and the Eye's powers, and the Rod won't work on Yugi at all. It doesn't work for everything they can do and there's a chance of failure if the other person is fighting it, but the Items are pretty good at not overtaking one another. They're meant to work together, after all. Seven pieces of the same thing.

But a magic-hating old fool like yourself won't understand that. You hate that they exist at all, right?

[Despite the cold look in his eyes, the playful tone of his voice won't go away.]

Meant to work together... Right.

[ Shakes his head. ] I do hate that they exist because idiots like you and Malik get their hands on them.

...Oi. You can insult me all you want, but not him. Malik's suffered more than you can imagine to get where he is. A despair lasting for over three thousand years.

[...truthfully, he didn't give a shit about Malik's tragic past, but he still didn't appreciate him being talked down like that.]

If anyone's an idiot here, it's the one that's refusing to accept anything that doesn't fit into his narrow belief system. Even if you're scared... it's not a very adult way to handle problems.

[And with that, he's gone, leaving Ryou blinking in confusion.]

.... [ Snake did believe what was happening, he didn't have a choice not to, but that meant this place was a lot more dangerous to newcomers, people who didn't have any idea what those items could do.

But before he can even get a word in, he notices the gentle eyes of Ryou and curses to himself, lighting up a cigarette. Sorry Sib. ]
