After all that--grateful, he says? Ugh...Kaiba wants to cross his arms, to scowl, but that's too much effort. Again, he's not interested in losing his lunch. Instead, he presses a hand to his aching gut as if pressure might alleviate the issue and simply rolls his eyes.
"Pegasus might have taken you home, somehow. He has a way of--nngh!--of finding my valuable employees and making them his. Some excuse would have come about, and then..."
Kaiba frowns.
He's not sure...if that's right. The coffee shop, hadn't something happened besides Yuugi collapsing? Kaiba can't recall, but then, he'd been pretty out of it himself.
That's why Pegasus had taken point. He'd driven them both to the hospital...no, all three of them. Mokuba was there.
(mokuba wasn't in the bathroom though, weren't they the only ones?)
Kaiba does try to think hard about it, but every time he thinks he might get somewhere, there's an airy release of attention in his brain, like someone's hit a switch.
It's frustrating, and...actually, although he doesn't realize it, the reactions are all showing on his face. Scowl...then a strange vacant expression, before he scowls again, thinking hard...and the expression falls again, his eyes half-lidding.
"I'm not thanking you for this meal," he finally settles on, sounding tired.
