"It's not a stupid risk, Kaiba, because those three cards are some of your most prized and precious possessions." He frowns, slowing to an immediate stop when he tells him that. "You know that's not true, right? and that's just another test." He starts walking again. "You are absolutely worthy of them. The only person, in fact, and I know you'll be able to overcome this."

Yugi waves his wand and the light that had been sitting at the end of it becomes and orb just like Kaiba's, floating alongside his head to light the way. Yugi hadn't followed Kaiba, and had instead stopped at the crossroad, looking at the marks etched at the center when Kaiba had instructed him not to breath. He looked over at him, staring at the bubble and watching his wide eyed boyfriend freak out.

He'd been through his maze a few times and had been made to confront plenty of terrible things. The physical stuff always faded, but the emotional stuff... stuck around. "Kaiba..." He reached out for him, tugging him back toward the split in the path. "I know. I trust you and your strength. We will get out with you leading the way. You'll beat this maze. It is our opponent and you will absolutely crush it. Keep that in mind. Keep your Blue-Eyes in mind and you. will. win."
