Yuma: hey, uh, judai, um, you can see ghosts right???
Judai: yeah, why?
Yuma: if you were being haunted by a ghost how would you know?
Judai: depends
Yuma: on what???
Judai: on how the ghost acts obviously
Judai: so how does it act?
Yuma: uh, its following me, and talking to me, i dont think other people can see it
Judai: hmm
Judai: sounds like a ghost
Yuma: so what do i do???
Judai: do you know who to call?
Yuma: WHO AM POSSIBLY GOING TO CALL ABOUT THIS???
Yugi: GHOST BUSTERS
Yusaku: ghostbusters
Yuya: GHOSTBUSTERS!!!!
Yusei: ghostbusters?
Judai: ghostbusters of course!
Yuma: guys thats not helpful
Yuma: seriously i am being haunted by some ghost thing
Yugi: i have some experince in being haunted as well, whats the ghosts name?
Yuya: i am also being haunted, do you happen to have deceased brothers? Thats who’s haunting me
Yuma: you guys are both being haunted??? I thought that that was just judai?
Yugi: yeah we’ve both been haunted this whole time
Yuya: its just we can’t see ghosts other then the ones haunting us
Judai: wait, yuya, you have multiple deceased brothers?
Yuya: yeah we used to be identical quadruplets
Judai: Im so sorry man
Yuya: no its fine, sometimes i can still hear their voices
Yuya: because they live in my head and wont shut up
Yuya: they’ve been having the same argument for months since we left reality and now live in the time stream
Yuma: wait, you exist outside of reality???
Yuya: i mean, technically i can't wait because time is passing all at once and not at all at the same time, but yeah
Yugi: how does that work?
Yuya: it doesnt
Yuma: wack
Yuma: so back to my ghost problem
Yugi: whats its name?
Yuma: he says his name is astral
Yuma: he also claims memory loss
Yuma: awfully convenient for him
Yuma: not able to tell me why the f*ck he’s here
Judai: its adorable how you censored that, what are you twelve?
Yuma : twelve and a half
Yugi: my ghost told me he had memory loss and he wasnt lying
Yuya: my ghosts gave me memory loss
Judai: well none of the many many ghosts ive met have ever had any sort of memory problems
Judai: but its your ghost so believe him if you want to
Yuma: he’s telling me he’s not a ghost
Judai: thats what a ghost would say
Yugi: so what is he?
Yuma: he doesnt know
Judai: sketchy, dont belive him
Yugi: dont listen to judai, listen to your heart.
Yugi: if you think you can trust him, then trust him
Judai: have you tried duelling him???
Judai: duelling solves most of my problems
Yuya: i can back him up on duelling solving most problems
Yuya: especially the ghost related ones
Yuya: i had to duel this really powerful woman in order to get my brothers to release my memories so then i could recognize them as ghosts and not some weird split personality i thought that i had.
Yugi: are you okay yuya???
Yugi: you say some concerning things
Yuya: oh, yeah im fine
Yuya: nothing can harm me in the time stream because everything exists at the same non-existent time.
Judai: what does that even mean???
Yuya: it means i only have access to this chat and to my brothers who are nearly constantly screaming for some reason or another
Yuya: but sometimes i can see into other timelines
Yuya: in one of the other timelines one of my brothers, yuri, was super evil. Also he went to duel academy, but that was a military organization and not a school
Yuma: can i get back to my ghost problem???
Yuya: sure, i have all the time in existence, but also no time at all
Yuma: great
Yuma: astral, the ghost just told me that i need to duel a bunch of people that have certain cards in order to get his memories back
Yuma: think i should do it?
Yugi: absolutely
Yugi: now that youve introduce cards into this
Yugi: you have to believe in the hearts of them
Yugi: i trust this ghost completely
Judai: dont just believe a ghost because it wants some cards
Judai: i wouldnt trust a ghost as far as i could throw one
Judai: and theyre incorporeal, i can't throw them
Judai: i have tried many times
Yuya: have you tried letting the ghost control ur body for a bit then throwing ur body off of something?
Yuya: because if ur really desperate to throw a ghost
Yuya: thats the best way to do it.
Yuya: trust me on that
Judai: i trust your knowledge on ghost throwing 100% yuya
Judai: teach me ur ways of hurting ghosts yuya
Judai: please i beg of you
Yuya: well the first step is to time travel 20-30 years in the past and have ur brothers fuck up ur memories
Yuya: step two is to put urself in danger so one of the ghosts has to take control of ur body in order to protect you from the danger.
Yuya: and boom, injured ghost
Yuma: WAIT
Yuma: i think astral is an alien
Yuya: so not a ghost?
Yuma: unclear, he might still be the ghost of an alien
Yugi: wack
Yugi: congrats on making first contact with extra-terrestrials
Yuma: i think a live specimen would count for more.
Yuya: it does
Yuya: i have watched many groups make first contact, dead aliens count for nothing
Yuma: damn
Yuma: i dont get points for a dead alien
Judai: i thought you said other people can't see him
Judai: you dont get points for the invisible
Yuma: damn
Yuma: maybe next alien i find wont be sorta dead
Yugi: isnt not meeting dead people sorta the goal
Yugi: generally you have to die to meet most dead people
Judai: maybe for you
Judai: i see dead people on the regular
