ryou making pop culture references and neither bakura or malik understanding though.
Worse would be if Ryou liked Star Wars and Bakura enjoyed Star Trek and they make dueling sci-fi references at each other while fucking playing with their sculpting for D&D bullshit and Malik is sitting there going “why am I doing this”

…Dude.
I don’t know how the artist meant for it to be interpreted, but.
To me, this just looks like a great… portrait of just… Bakura, after his final confrontation in the series.
He’s been beaten, destroyed, and not even himself anymore. He’s fused with Zorc, left without his identity and any sense of his humanity. And there’s the shadow of who he was, mourning the loss of his own self, wondering how it all could have fallen apart like it had, ended so meaninglessly.
Just random thinking and rambling, but. Meh, ignore me.
I like this interpretation.
This is my interpretation as well.
I needed more heartache and feels tonight T-T
The more I look at this picture, the more I want to cry.
Bakura sleeps best when he’s curled up in Marik’s arms, close enough to hear his heartbeat.
Am I the only one whose noticed they have the same coat?
Not just in the animated Prince of Egypt, too; Ten Commandments Charleton Heston-Moses had a red coat with a white stripe too.
I think Takahashi was trolling us.
This makes me want to watch Prince of Egypt even more than I already did.
I did fill out the first few questions for thief when this went around the first time, but headcanon evolves…plus new questions! (Going by Vagabonds headcanon for this one)
“…is if he did after leaving his home. I bet he did it when he was 16-18…y’know for sanitary reasons. Because, CLEAN!”
“Yeah, I like the idea of Malik being circumcised.”
“Makes for easier drawing. OH WAIT! I’m stupid! They had circumcision in Ancient Egypt! So, so-“
“Yeah!! They practically invented it! XD”
“Earliest recording of it! Wow I’m dumb! Oh…but didn’t they have it done when they were older? Like puberty or something- OMG!! OMG!! What if! What if!”
“Ahhhh!!”
“Malik had it done during the-“
“YES!! READ MY MIND!! Oh my god! WOW! WOW!”
“Poor kid! WOW!”
LET ME TELL YOU ALL ABOUT MY CIRCUMCISION HEADCANONS
A small evil part of me wonders if that’s why Rishid’s hand is steady enough to intricately scar up his own face. Because the alternative to DIY circumcision was having Mr Ishtar do it and you don’t want someone who hates to you that close to your junk with a knife
Can see both of these headcanons happening…and ouch >.<

After getting out of the tomb, Ishizu almost absolutely dedicates her life to cataloging and recording everything left in the tomb. It’s how she gets her job in the museum, by offering them the once in a lifetime insight that she and the Ishtars alone have. It’s partly to survive after daddy Ishtar’s death, partly because she has seen that it will help her get back to Marik, and partly out of guilt, for everything that she couldn’t stop from happening. Her job gives her an almost neverending to-do list, keeping her busy in an escape from her guilt. Some of these include translating the books and scrolls of her father’s library, and cataloging the artifacts she from the tombs.
Look at his face though. There’s anger underneath that look of intense concentration, even the night before the Ceremonial Duel, when everything is supposed to be resolved forever. Ishizu sleeps easily that night, Rishid stares out the window contemplatively, and Malik broods at the ceiling. I wonder what he’s thinking about.
This screenshot always gets played off with the “hur hur Malik has a frilly pillow” or the “hur hur Malik’s wearing a tank top,” which is unfortunate, because like LB says, there’s a lot to that expression. For someone who’s supposed to have turned cheerful good guy, there’s much that doesn’t fit with that image for Malik when he greets Yuugi-tachi in Egypt: he easily passes off the duty of explaining Yami’s fate as pharaoh to Ishizu, while he has regained position as clan-head. He overall seems uninvested in the end of the Pharaoh’s story; his mind is someplace else. He has an expression like this after having greeted Yuugi-tachi at the airport ala Namu. He doesn’t much encourage the group’s enthusiastic tourism of Egypt. While the Ishtars are mostly passed off as plot device in the ending, here we get some hints that Malik’s positive transformation may not be so simple.
While this expression could be interpreted any number of ways —self-hate re:Battle City finals, concern about the Ceremonial Duel, thinking about what to do with the tombkeepers, wanting to fight the Pharaoh himself, or yes, thinking about shippings— I can’t help but see this screenshot and still buy Malik as a reformed, cheerful good guy who is filled with hope, specifically, for life.

I think they’d switch…. Mainly because I honestly have no idea….Yugi might have more experience? Possibly?
