[Floor 39 | Morning]
Jonouchi didn't always spend his time in the media room. While it did provide for good escapism with all of its devices and games, and various other mediums to indulge it. It could only do so much when you were there all the time. You could say it was starting to lose its luster for him and as each day goes by he would loiter there less and less. As of recently Jonouchi had been spending more of his time on this floor now. The young teen was making his daily laps around the floor, increasing his already improved stamina. He hasn't gotten to the weights yet, but that was next on his list. The blonde came the realization that he didn't want to be dependent upon others, and he also wanted to be more helpful. Knowing he didn't bear any powers, he had to compensate in other ways. This was one of those ways.

Eventually Jonouchi came to a halt after his last lap. He was hunched over with his hands rested on his knees taking in quick breaths influenced by his cardio work out. If you asked him how many laps he did, he wouldn't be able to give an answer. He didn't keep count, but it was far more than he could have ever done back at home.

[Floor 1 | Noon]
After every good work out comes a hearty meal. Not that the cafeteria food was very hearty, but Jonouchi wasn't going to starve himself of food. He had already received some food and was seated at one of the tables scarfing down his food. After such a work out, his serving was nearly finished and he looked like he was ready for seconds!

[Floor 81 | Night]
Jonouchi could actually be found on one of the bulged windows lying down looking up at the sky, stargazing. It was not something he'd normally do, but there were lots of things in this tower that he didn't do that he now found himself doing. It was his way of realizing he had had to accommodate to his situation and how very real it was. The blonde teen was seemingly motionless and detached when he was staring heavily into the sky. It was almost as if he were in another world altogether. Really he was just lost in thought over recent events that had taken place. There was more on his mind than he was letting on, and he didn't want to burden anyone with his trouble thoughts.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

I am not positive about it, but if he disliked her to the point of fighting against her, I do not think he would do it with her. And I can speak about it calmly because such things do not fluster me. They are what they are.

And we may not have much time..but it is possible that the people here will be able to come up with some solution before time runs out.

Even then, that's not something you just say like that! [Dude! Jonouchi can live without the details.]

I hope you're right.

[Cause he sure doesn't feel helpful for it.]

There was getting around it in this conversation, for better or worse. However, it is something that I can say like that, in the least offensive way.

..I hope I am as well.

It's not that important anyway! [Weirdo!!]

Then, if it is not a big deal, why are you worrying over it so much?

[He's teasing, Jono.]

I'm not worrying over it!!

I am glad to hear that..but I am teasing you, Jonouchi. Please, calm yourself.

[He's balling his fists.]

You want a beating?!

[And chaos is just smiling.]

I do not, but if you wish to fight, I shall not stop you.

[Son of a bitch.]

That's now how this works.

May I ask why you get to decide the rules of every fight in the universe?

[Again..he's teasing. This kind of reminds him of Jr. a little.]

They're not rules, they're common knowledge!

[Common knowledge for who?]

Common knowledge for whom? Different rules can apply depending upon the person.

Now you're just getting technical!

Most things in the universe are, even if one does not know it.

Not everything.

I did not say everything. I said most. There is a difference.

And I'm reminding you of it!

I did not need to be. However, thank you for doing so.

You're weird, you know that? [Has he told him this?]

[No, not yet.]

That I am. However, everyone is odd in some way. Even you.

What're you trying to say, Chaos?

That you and I, along with everyone else in existence, is weird in some fashion.

Say's the guy with Chaos for a name.

Yes, that is what I said. I am not excluding myself in that statement. We are all weird. All of us includes me. It also includes you, since it includes everyone else.
