[It was warranted given everything he had done to them. Even Yugi wasn't fully sure on how to feel about Marik. Ever the optimist though, wanting to see the good in everyone, he hoped the other had been able to turn his life around.
"Maybe? It really depends..."
Marik grunts, partially out of annoyance and partially out of embarrassment.]
I know but... so soon...
[Was he a different person? Or was it just his ability to blend in with those around him that let him settle in to Usagi's group? Had his soul really begun to heal from the trauma he put it through?
Another exhale as he closes his eyes for a moment, calming down from the presence and affection of Usagi.]
... Alright. Maybe we'll get lucky and they won't want to stick around for very long...
[Eventually the two come outside, Yugi shuffling sheepishly over to Marik and Usagi's table to offer a bow. "I'm sorry for making you uncomfortable, Marik. I was surprised to see you is all and I wanted to say hi..."
The Egyptian bites his bottom lip, drumming his fingers against the table as he looks between Yugi and Teá.]
... It's fine. I'm... hhh... sorry... for going off like that.
[Yugi shakes his head and offers a smile. "Don't even worry about it. I understand why you'd might feel tense coming back here. It really is good to see you again - and to see you doing well for yourself...! How did you and Usagi happen to meet, if you don't mind me asking?"
Marik looks over to his girlfriend, unsure if he should tell the story or leave it to her.]
