When they finally arrive, Kaiba's already dressed himself down into nightclothes. He's in a longsleeved button up shirt with loose-fitting pajama pants, silken and decadent. And yeah, having a run about it has calmed him down, but...

...Well, when the others arrive, it's like he's being attacked again, the thrum of Yuugi's too-loud heartbeat in his ears.

God. Damn it.

Don't mind him, he's in the living room reading a book with such a scowl that anyone would think he was angry at the book itself.

Mokuba leads Yuugi in, moving slow, looking worried. His brother and the new hire are gonna end up giving him wrinkles. As for Isono, he's just, uh. He's going to use one of the guest rooms, because these children are definitely giving him wrinkles. The closer he stays, the better, and Mokuba agrees.

"C'mon Yuugi, let's head in--oh. Seto, I didn't think you'd be out here."

Kaiba sighs loudly, snapping the book shut. The sound is grating, but not as grating as Yuugi's heartbeat. Of course they'd decided to come to the living room first. Honestly, it was Seto's mistake, picking the obvious destination, right?

"Mokuba, would you give us a moment?" he asks in annoyance. "Don't worry, I'm not going to kill him, but I would like some privacy."

Well...

At least he's honest, right?
