[Spending money on those he cared about was just a thing he did not if she told him not to, he would listen to her.

Marik's a bit nervous as they enter the shop only due to the aspect that Yugi might be home but other than that, he doesn't seem panicky. He does allow Solomon to give her a tour of the place, hanging back a bit to look around at the different games.

"Usagi then. You can just call me grandpa! Everyone else does. And there are so many different games and genres! I've traveled all over the world to learn more about the history of games. Yugi tells me you haven't quite gotten the hang of Duel Monsters yet. It isn't for everyone, of course, but... perhaps you'd be willing to give Capsule Monsters a try?"

He takes Usagi over to one of his display shelves where there's different terrain maps and fields, along with Duel Monster looking miniatures. "This was Pegasus's first game while he was in the process of creating Duel Monsters. You collect these little figures and can battle with them!"

Marik makes a beeline for them, curious to check out the game as well. At least until he sees Yugi coming down the stairs. The small Duelist stops half way, blinks, and pouts.

"Grandpa! I told you to tell me if they came over!"

"I was getting to that! I just wanted to show them around first."

Not even Yugi can stay annoyed at his grandfather. He smiles and shakes his head, finishing his descent and walks over to join them. Marik and he exchange looks for a moment before Yugi utters a "Hey."

If Usagi's listening, she'll notice Marik's voice change a bit. A bit more gravel with emphasis on specific words. Just like yesterday.]


Hey. ... Thanks for inviting us. You didn't have to do that.

[A shrug. "It's fine. That's all behind us now. We both enjoy games and... I didn't really get to know you very well before you left so... thought it would be a good opportunity to do that."

Marik rubs the back of his neck.]


Yeah.

["Yami hopes you've been doing alright too."

There's a clipped noise from Marik, him tensing up a bit.]


Th... Thanks.

[All of this happening while Solomon continues to show a bunch of different games to Usagi.]
