He says it without thinking, drawing closer still, until he's at the foot of the bed. This close, Yuugi can probably see him breathing hard, even though he had no need to do so. Not that Yuugi probably knew that.
"Then, maybe..."
Kaiba tries to move onto the bed, attracted like a starving wolf to its meal...then he jerks back. Not by choice. There's a flash as the light in the room reflects against a wire pulled taut around his waist.
So he'd prepared for this moment, in case he couldn't control himself. And that was the only reason why Mokuba had let him so close to Yuugi. He could see the wire as soon as Seto walked past him. But now, he's not playing into Seto's nonsense. Instead, he takes hold of the wire and pulls, hard. It's enough to make his brother take a step back, then turn to glare at him--can you even glare with a blindfold?
It sure feels like that's what's happening.
"Bro, get out of here. Please. You're acting stupid. You both are. But when you act stupid, people can get hurt. Is that what you want? You want to kill a guy in your own house, just because you can't control yourself?"
Mokuba knows what he's doing--Seto jerks back from him, and takes a few steps back from the bed at that.
"I'm fine," he insists sharply, but Mokuba only shakes his head before responding.
"No, you're not. You just asked this guy if you could bite his wrist! For months you've been fighting me on the idea of even eating a rabbit, or a dog, or anything at all live that could help deal with this! Now you want to bite him?"
Kaiba grits his teeth, swallowing so hard it's audible. He turns towards Yuugi...then abandons the idea of any response here, since no matter what he said, his brother was right.
He wasn't acting rationally.
He had to leave...
"...For you own good, and mine, you should leave quickly, Mutou."
This time it doesn't sound nearly as scathing, and Kaiba finally decides to leave.
