[Or maybe a bit of both. Games are always battles of wits and skills, but usually people enjoy them because of the low stakes. Bakura considers himself to be capable of having fun with both kinds of games -- it's only when it comes to the Sennen Items and their creators that he goes totally off the rails to get at them. Though, can he really be blamed, all things considered? He'll leave that decision to whatever higher beings there might be.]
You're really thinking low of me, don't you?
[The quirk of his lips shows that he is being amused, already because Kaiba finally gave him some valuable clues. It was about damn time! Clue one, mini-Kaiba isn't here. Clue two, Kaiba seems ready to fight and unhappy about Bakura just asking about him. That implies that the brunette doesn't think the kid would be safe, should Bakura choose to come after him now. Clue three, Bakura isn't being deemed a worthwile threat right now.
He could be wrong with all of that, of course, it's just assumptions, but he is willing to follow the lead of his gut feelings.
After a silence that stretches a little too long Bakura tuts, as if chiding a child.]
Less intuitive than the Vessel then, I see. Is it really that hard to believe that I'm just killing time by playing with myself?
