Seto fixed a glare on the servant, trying to get into the right mindset for dealing with her. "Of course." He stated simply, deciding to hold back a snappy comment. He didn't want her to go tell the pharaoh he was being mean or anything. That would reflect badly on him. Atem nodded as a greeting, looking out over the balcony. Not at the sky, but to the ground, where he could see some people walking. "Seto tells me you agreed to marry?" He said, turning the statement into a question, seeking confirmation. "Things may perk up later, though." Bakura said, running a hand along the inside of Rei's thigh as he kissed her back. He placed his free hand behind her head, pulling her closer to him.

"I did" Ayira said looking back up at the sky.
"I may be wrong but I think you like her" nanu said desiding to just come out with it.
"mmhhmm" Rei said. She pressed closer to him her arms wraping around his body.

"Ah. Well, Seto had just come by to tell me." Atem said, suddenly feeling awkward. What had he planned to say now? Nothing, of course. Seto's glare fiercened, his piercing blue eyes growing colder. "You're right... in saying that you're wrong." He snapped, getting to his feet. "I have no time for petty relationships, and petty conversations like this. There is a festival in a few weeks' time, and I need to see to it that everything goes smoothly, because our pharaoh certainly won't." He said icily, turning to walk away. "I forgot what we were talking about..." Bakura confessed, breathless, after a few minutes of intimate kissing. "Couldn't have been that important." He muttered, sliding one hand along the side of Rei's body, tracing her curves. He caressed her skin gently, while painfully remembering doing this similar action earlier, to that servant girl... He wondered briefly if she had been found yet, if she was alive or not...

Nanu was quiet for a moment before giggling "I was right. You are just putting up a mask." shesaid before walking back out into thegarden.
Ayira wasquiet still staring up at the sky.
"Nope couldent have been" She said nuzzling into the napeof his neck. She loved these rare intimite moments she shared with her husband.

Seto hmph'ed and stormed back to his room, not caring whether or not he couldn't think there. At least nobody like her would bother him. When he entered the room, he saw both Atem and Ayira sitting out on the balcony, and he hesitated. He realized that they weren't talking or anything, so it was fine if he entered. "Good evening pharaoh" He called, still indoors. Atem turned slightly, and waved at Seto. "Well, I should leave..." He muttered, deciding that either Nanu had finished her talk with Seto or she hadn't found him-- either way, he wanted to leave the priest alone. He brushed past his cousin, before leaving the room. Seto was quiet after Atem left, and then looked at Ayira. "You're probably worn out from your travels. I apologize for not realizing that sooner. If you want, there is a bath house nearby, or you may go to bed. I have to wake up early, so I'm going to sleep now." He said drowsily, wondering why he hadn't noticed his exhaustion earlier. Melissa wasn't in a 'romantic' mood, and decided to be a killjoy and stop posting for Bakura.

[Seto: All that work for something I've practically seen already, what with her outfit? Not worth the trouble. talk2hand ]
Seto nodded briefly, removing his priest gear once again. He normally slept "au naturale," but he wasn't about to do that when he needed to share his bed. He had a simple linen kilt on, and slid into his bed, rolling so that his back was to the door. What if that girl was right? Did he like Ayira? He had just screwed himself over by his arrangement with the pharaoh, but... he hadn't expected Atem to actually agree.

A while Later ayira came back from the bathout. It was nice to be able to relax. Thinking seto was sleeping she quietly sliped into the bed yawning.
((I bet seto's father isent liking this. wait till he finds out atem's going to marry her!))

[Yep. He's gonna be shocked with Atem marrying Nanu, and then die of a heart attack when he finds out about this.]
Seto stirred slightly when he heard Ayira come back. He hadn't quite fallen asleep yet, but didn't say anything. He considered it, considered asking her... well, all kinds of things. Who had she meant when she asked if it was wrong if she liked someone else? Would she reconsider marrying the pharaoh? Would she still want to share his room, or would she rather go to the pharaoh's bed? He squeezed his eyes shut, wondering what was wrong with him.

Seto rolled over so that he faced her, and looked rather sad. He brushed some of her pale hair from her face, remembered thinking that Atem didn't deserve her, and then dropped off to sleep rather suddenly.
[I think we should skip a few weeks. Like, to the first day of the festival or something.]

((Ok))
It was the first day of the festial and everybody was running around. Nanu had gotten up early and was out on the garden.
Ayira was out on the balcony where she spent most of her time staring up at the sky.

Atem had less and less time to see Nanu as the festival neared, and he hadn't seen her at all today. He was off being scrubbed until his skin was raw, his body hairs being plucked off one by one, his clothes getting the last look-over, and other minute details. It was very tiring and he really couldn't stand it. Seto had been glad Ayira came when she did. He had an excuse for avoiding her, quickly busying himself with preparations. He overworked himself, often not having time for proper meals, but that didn't matter. As long as he had something to take his mind off of everything, he was fine. Mariku was convinced Bakura had lost his mind. The poor thief had gone stir crazy, unable to even leave the house. He paced furiously around the four rooms, muttering and swearing and sometimes just breaking down and sitting still for hours at a time. Mariku had taken to tying a rope on Bakura's wrist when he slept and attaching it to the wall, remembering only too fondly how the thief had snuck away before. Bakura had agreed to it, but seemed rather depressed when he needed to have it tied.

When seto had gone by his room ayira reached and and grabed him by theear forcing him into his room. She pushed into a chair a plate of food before him "Dont think thst I havent noticed your not eating.Your not leaving intill you do." She said feeling as if she was dealing with a child.
Rei had tried to find work but had no luck. She came up beside bakura with the children in her arms "I think we need to leave."

"Hey!" Seto muttered, rubbing his ear and wincing. He looked at the food in front of him, and then up at Ayira. "You have got to be kidding me. Today is the start of one of the biggest street affairs in Egypt, and you expect me to waste my time with this? I need to be out there. I need to make sure nobody tampered with any of the statues, I need to make sure nobody has taken ill, I need to make sure everyone remembers their place..." Seto listed off, ticking his fingers as he said each thing. "That damned thief still hasn't been found, so I need to send out men to watch the crowd and make sure he doesn't show up, I need to check on the pharaoh and see how he's doing--" Bakura dug his fingers deep in his hair, staring at the ground with a passion. "There's no sun..." He said, something that he had been saying a lot lately. Sometimes he repeated things, just saying them over and over without realizing he had just told Rei not a few moments ago. "I have no idea how the time passes. But it hasn't been long. It's like when I was in your world. It's cold, I hate it..." Mariku was nearby; he had sensed Bakura's weakening sanity and was very worried, for the sake of Rei and the children. He thought that at any moment Bakura would lash out. "I think that now would be as good a time as any to go. There's a holy festival going on near the palace, lots of people are traveling. The pharaoh and all the others are probably distracted with it, nobody would be searching for you at this time."
