==============================
Do you know what I like to do out of sheer and utter boredom? Play The Sims. I have quite a few of the expansion packs - Livin' Large, Hot Date, Vacation, Unleashed, and Superstar, to be specific. Well, imagine my delight when I found you could download skins from Yu-Gi-Oh - and oh, what fun I had completely destroying their personalities! ^o^ (Cause I don't think you can get very authentic Ancient Egypt in a suburban neighborhood setting... what else could I do?)
Okay, a warning: Expected OOC-ness ahead, as well as a touch of suggestive commentary and imagery. And for those that actually do care, the pictures are all mine, though neither the game nor the anime belong to me. Poo, and I thought I had them in a loophole. >.<;;
==============================
Immediately after the gang moved into their palatial estate, Anzu took wing to the inexplicably placed karaoke machine and wowed the resident bishonen with her rendition of "Meet Me in the Red Room." Word rapidly spread about the house, and DA SING-OFF WAS ON.
Bakura soon decided to try his hand at the musical game, but when he found that the CD with the song he wanted was stolen by Claire the Bear, he gave up and crooned Stevie Wonder tunes instead. Yami no Yuugi watched with curiosity at the spectacle as Shizuka merely blinked for some reason.
Unfortunately, the occasionally over-enthusiastic Bakura got a little too into his heart-rending performance....
Bakura: [is blindly swinging about to the tune of "My Cherie Amour"]
Yami no Yuugi: [gets smacked by teh hair] Does anybody have unidentified flying hair insurance?!
Shizuka: O_o You got me.
Finally, Yami no Yuugi decided to just step up already and get his sing on. And with the power of his Magical Pop Idol Vocal Skillz™ (along with a bit of ancient Egyptian trickery,) he was a massive hit.
Shizuka/Bakura: [under some sort of mind control] YEAH YUUGI~!!!1! J00 R0X0RZ TEH M1K3, Y0!
Yami no Yuugi: Thank you, thank you! And this next one's going out to all the ladies... [waves the Sennen Puzzle about]
For some reason, the powers of the Sennen Puzzle do not seem to hold up to the sheer scariness that is the Spirit singing... Garth Brooks. And thusly, the mind-control link was broken, freeing Bakura and Shizuka from their long-winded spazzing spell. Yami no Yuugi reacted... quite violently...
Yami no Yuugi: Why isn't anybody cheering for me anymore?? Do they not know who I AM?! Oh, that's it... [climbs on speaker and screams] IF I DON'T GET THE PRAISE AND ACCOLADES I SO RIGHTFULLY DESERVE, I'LL BANISH ALL OF YOU TO... er, ah... the SHADOW REALM! Yeah, I think...
Bakura: This is getting to be pretty boring... 'ey, Shizuka, wanna get some frosty chocolate milkshakes?
And the moral of this touching tale is: ....................well, um, don't get the Yu-Gi-Oh cast a karaoke machine. For people will get beaten down by the performers' hair and you might get thrown to the SHADOW REALM! if you don't cheer them on. Anyway. *cough*
