✨ you only get one chance...

[liltuna]

THE FIRST IMPRESSION MEME   You only get once chance to put your best foot forward. Screw that up, and you'll be forever seared in someone's mind as the person who had spinach in their teeth, or worse! ✨HOW TO PLAY 1. Drop a top-level! 2. If you have previous CR with someone, you'll have to let them know what your first-impression of them was. If this is your first time meeting, you'll be compelled to share what kind of vibe they give off. It's okay to be honest! Are they gross? Do they seem approachable? Do you find them incredibly hot?  3. Find out if your first impression was correct! Maybe that strange loner actually has a heart of gold? You'll never know unless you talk to them!

Marik Ishtar | Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters

[thetombkeeper]

[Yami available. Just specify if you want him.]

[veardant]

You remind me of someone I know.

[thetombkeeper]

Oh? And who might that be?

[veardant]

A good friend; his name is Cyno.

You look similar. As for personality.. well, that remains to be seen.

[thetombkeeper]

[If Bakura and Marik fused.

Still, his interest is piqued.]

I can't say I've ever been told I look like someone else before.

What's he like?

[veardant]

[ YEAH pretty much ]

I can't say I've ever seen someone that resembled him, either, but I suppose they say that everyone has a doppelganger. Statistically it makes sense.

He's very stern and serious when he's on the job, most people are frightened of him, but he has a kind heart.

[thetombkeeper]

I've heard that saying, yeah.

[Marik crosses his arms. Stern and serious... He gets the distinct feeling no one would describe him as such. Or having a kind heart. Maybe Ishizu on that last bit but no one else.]

Hmm. Maybe. I'd hope someone would use those to describe me but... I know they wouldn't.

... I'm glad Cyno's at least a good person.

[feelsgoodinyou]

You sure you want to hear that?

[thetombkeeper]

I have a feeling I already know anyways so sure. Why not.

[feelsgoodinyou]

Hmmmmn.

I thought you were another arrogant wanna-be clown of a bother who wanted to get in my way because you thought just having one of the Items and knowing a little would give you all the leeway. Big head, but not much behind it.

[He shrugs.]

Honestly, I planned how to kill you and get rid of your body with the least effort. Pretty sure you did the same. But a nice bike.

[thetombkeeper]

[Okay, he was expecting half of that. The whole killing to get rid of thing, not so much. Or being called out about thinking the same.]

... I suppose you're somewhat right. I didn't know exactly what I was getting into.

[He can't really blame Odion for ruining his plans because he should have never forced him to use the counterfeit Ra in the first place. Marik sighs.]

I knew you were dangerous. Wasn't entirely sure just how much... You certainly know how to grab someone's attention, that's for sure.

[feelsgoodinyou]

Nobody truly does, don't worry your pretty head~

[His voice implies an insult about the contents of said head, but that's just his way of a friendly nudge to not let it get to you. Truth is, Bakura had been so damn confident that he knew and then been taught a very better right before he died, too.]

You think so? Had I known I'd run into you, I'd have put a little more care in my appearance. [You know, ditch his host's shirt or bring his favorite coat, bring more than just a knife, stuff like that.]

[thetombkeeper]

[He's vaguely aware of that insult but... what's done is done. There isn't any point in worrying about it. He's just lucky to be alive and to no longer have a split personality.]

You looked fine to me. The striped shirt was a little tacky but I've seen worse.

[Why did Strings think giant shoes were the way to go.

But Marik smirks and tugs on the sleeve of whatever Bakura's wearing at the moment.]

[feelsgoodinyou]

[He huffs a laugh at that.]

Says the one who thought that a pink midriff shirt with a little gold chain was the right way to look evil and intimidating!

[The tug earns him a raised eyebrow.]

[thetombkeeper]

[He lets go and crosses his arms.]

It's lilac. And I dressed like that to not look intimidating. I couldn't have Yugi and his gang figure out what I was up to.

[Because it's important to prove that it's not pink, it's a shade of purple!]

[feelsgoodinyou]

Your eyes are lilac!

[Now what was that clothes tug all about? Bakura's still waiting for an answer.]

[thetombkeeper]

My eyes are lavender!

[There is no answer. He was just teasing him.]

[feelsgoodinyou]

Where's the difference?!

[Don't get smart with him!]

[thetombkeeper]

Lilac's more red, lavendar's more blue.

[feelsgoodinyou]

Like I care!!

I'll just call 'em dusk and be over with it!

[thetombkeeper]

[Huffff. Arguing over the important things, clearly.]

Fine. I suppose I'll allow it.

[feelsgoodinyou]

Too generous, your highness! Are we going to start arguing over what colors my eyes are next, or can we move on to more important matters?

[thetombkeeper]

Your eyes are generally brown but turn either golden or reddish depending on your mood.

[Such an observant boyfriend.]

But yes, we can move on to more important matters. I'll even let you decide what we discuss next.

[feelsgoodinyou]

Okay, then- Wait, what? My eyes don't change colors! How'd they'd even do that?!


[ <------ Important things. Them ---------> ]

[thetombkeeper]

I-I don't know! Maybe it's the lighting? That's just... That's just how they look sometimes, alright?!
