[he hates to admit it, but... this was fun. shockingly so. soon enough, all eyes in the room are on them, the electrifying couple with pep in their step. it gets him to feel more like himself. every move, every dip and every glide has him nearly delirious, sends a pleasant jolt through his system. twisting and turning, he sucks in every breath with a smile.
and then that grows into one big grin. of course he's doing incredibly well; even with all that hazy weight on his brain, it doesn't slow him down at all. pegasus isn't the only one who's sweating, and by the end of it, there's a glistening sheen on the back of his neck, sticking to his chest. the crowd bursts into cheers and applause for them both and for a moment, for a wonderful moment, he feels just like himself again. he draws pegasus into his arms so he doesn't collapse. and with all his usual pride and bluster, he boasts:]
You'll never beat me.
[he indulges one final twirl, once more nose to nose with his partner.]
And I'll never, ever fall behind. Because I'm Seto Kaiba.
