"Kaiba..." Muffled. "I wanted to help you. I wasn't really concerned about my own problem. It's not like I couldn't keep trying. You were the one with the problem running the clock. I had all the time in the world." He sighs, turning to finally look at him... and then he feels even worse, because Kaiba looks truly heartbroken.

"..." That's not true. Yugi feels partly responsible. If only he had challenged him to another game, something easier and more simple. "I don't know if it's going to be that simple, but... there's no harm in trying... and... and I'm glad you're safe too, Kaiba. That's what's most important here."
