"You've been through a lot today..." Ryou said, nodding his head, not mentioning his own problems. He heard footsteps approaching and tensed, unaware of who it was, until a cool hand brushed his hair out of his face. "Bakura. What do you want?"
"Trying to make up my mind." Bakura said calmly, holding Ryou's chin in his hands and examining his hikari, who grit his teeth together as he grew angrier. "I can either take the Millennium Eye from you and insert it into my own eye, which would be rather painful, or change so that we share a body again. That seems like the better choice, since you'd still be able to use the eye to 'see' and I won't have to lose an eye. But that would mean I'd have to turn over all of my Millennium Items, and you might not be able to absorb their powers. On top of that, I'd be blind. Choices, choices..."
"This is my body." Ryou hissed, slapping Bakura's hand away, even though he winced at that, since he was still feeling weak. "You want to share my body, you go through everything I've been through alone in this body. Go get raped a couple dozen times, and constantly beat. Top that with this--" He held up his wrists. "--and have someone gouge out your eyes. Then you can go ahead and share my body. Until then, I've earned the right to keep my own body for myself."
