[Yusei laughs and kicks off the ground with his feet, letting the jets do the rest of the work. If only everything could be so simple as this.]

You have an answer for everything, don't you?

[Never thought they'd be able to hide their tracks this effectively - but for a plan that was thought up on the fly, they've done pretty well for themselves, haven't they?]

[beatupgrass]

When you look like I do, the only thing you got are survival instincts. You should see me in a prison. Even the worst maximum security prison in the galaxy took me less than a day to break out of.

[He's the most smug about this.] But that ain't somethin' I wanna test today, so c'mon. Let's get the rest of Cree's shit so we can get paid.

[planetary_bonds]

Huh. I just ended up playing a game to get out of prison, instead...

[He could have broken out. His cellmate invited him in on his jailbreak plan and everything. And then instead he played card games to get out instead. Like a proper protag.]

Don't think that'll work here, though. [Yusei gets some more distance, careful to not rise above tree level where he could be seen.] The human ones should be a little easier, at least. We could just pick up a hand or an arm bone or something, yeah?

[beatupgrass]

[YGO PROTAGS ARE WEIRD.]

Maybe they'll think the dead guy was just missing a hand, and won't pursue it too hard. [Rocket chuckles indulgently.] All right, Yusei. Let's do this.

[a beat] And the next time you grab me like that, you're gonna be the one losin' a hand.

[ygo protags with their friendships and their card games and their shadow realms and-]

Oh.

[Yusei blinks owlishly when Rocket suddenly snaps at him, then smiles hesitantly.]

Sorry. I did that without thinking.

[well. at least Rocket finally gets an apology, however many minutes later.]
