    Summary

    “Yoshiki?”

    “Hm?”

    “...You liked Hikaru, didn't you?”

    His body stilled. As warm as the night was, the bedsheets were suddenly unbearably cold. “...Yeah, of course. He was my best frien-”

    “No, like. You liked liked him. Like, uh. Like the Yasaburou heir.”

    Yoshiki was silent. I’m not sick. Or at least that's what he wanted to believe. He had the impression there were a million eyes staring at him from out the window, and another million eyes sprouting from the walls, a watermelon made only of seeds.

    “Did he like you back?”

    Summary

    “That.” Bakura pointed, mystified. A quizzical meow reinforced his own perplexity. “What is it?”

    “A robot litter box,” Malik explained, kicking aside the cardboard box it had come in. He packed the flathead screwdriver back in his toolbox, then sat back on his haunches to survey his workmanship. Between the two of them, Malik was the only one who was of any use with tools, owing to his job as a mechanic and his motorcycle hobby, both of which consumed most of his time. Malik had assembled every piece of furniture in the house and Bakura had either watched on, bemused by the idea of constructing anything, or stood nearby to hand Malik whatever tools he requested and make the occasional scathing remark. “The sales lady said it makes your life easier. Saves time and whatever.”

    It resembled a spaceship in Bakura’s learned opinion. What about this gadget would entice a cat to defecate in it?

    “You’ve lost me.”

    Or: Malik impulse buys a cat, and Bakura suffers.
