TEXT; UN: J.SHEPPARD
Alright, new pop quiz. When you think of home, what do you think of?
[ Open question, which he's not going to expand on unless prompted -- though really he's curious about something specific. Do people consider Olympia or Wyver their home now? Maybe the Natha station? Or do they think of home worlds they've been told no longer exist? ]

Some people did the ante rule, I think, but that was usually reserved for tournaments and the like. Or for thugs.
[Because in imaginary YGO land, ante rule is a Villains Only rule.]
no subject
So what do you normally play for?
[ Is this like high stakes Pokemon gambling? ]
no subject
For fun, mostly.
[except when the police and the death cults get involved.]
no subject
Well if thugs play too I'm guessing there's money in tournaments?
[ Are you sponsored by Pepsi or something. ]
no subject
Money, prestige, titles...the usual sort of thing. I can't say I was ever interested in any of that.
no subject
[ You sound rich, buddy. ]
no subject
[nah, he's poor as shit! slumboy all the way.]
no subject
[ He's just saying. ]
no subject
[There's sarcasm dripping all over that text.]

That being said, thanks for the question. Reminiscing about home...I'd forgotten about some of the happier memories until you'd asked that question.
no subject
[ That'd be a good memory, right? Winning a tournament with your shiny charizard or whatever? ]
no subject
[The Fortune Cup was kinda weird, alright. Being a front for cultists and all that.]
no subject
Too much drama?
[ Was someone a sore loser? Did someone's holo pikachu card get stolen? You know, whatever counts for drama in a card game tournament. ]
no subject
[More like mystical dragons came and kinda screwed up the tournament match by temporarily swallowing the duelists and shoving them down a time travelling space road to show them past and future visions. It was pretty weird.]
Things got a little out of hand after that.
no subject
Well what was a happier memory then?
[ Did you get something cool in a booster pack? ]
no subject
[Huh.]
There had been a disaster not long before I was brought here...we were starting to make our own lives with our own hands. Looking towards that future...I can't help but remember that fondly, even if it was cut short.

[there's a long pause before he answers the second question, though. a good five minutes.]
it is and it isn't.

i don't regret meeting the people here. but the fact that i had to lose everything to meet them stings a little, even now. i can't completely say which i would rather have.
no subject
[ So much as he cares about people he met here, they're still... newer. Their impact on his life isn't as well established. John is pretty sure that makes a difference. ]
no subject
[But he's already been here for over a year, Yusei thinks plantively. How much time does it need?]
Some things, though, time can't completely erase. At that point, I suppose it's just down to how we deal with it...
