It's Sunday which means its cleaning time at the Bewear House. While they're doing laundry, Ultimate Maid is documenting it for posterity while Meowth cleans. "And dis is how you scrub stains out--hmm?"

Meowth holds up two cards which are covered in suds and brushes it off, revealing horrified images of two young teenagers. "Gross," he said. "Hey Zuzu! Ya need to empty your pockets first before we do laundry!"

"Hmm?" Zuzu's feet came into view. "What's up Meowth?"

"Dese weirdo trading cards of yours fell of youse pockets," he said, holding it up for Zuzu to take. "I know it's Halloween but sheesh!"

Zuzu literally drops the stuff she's carrying in shock. "Oh my gosh," she gasps, going chalk white. "I... forgot about them I'm so sorry...!"

Grabbing the cards, she turned to Ultimate Maid. "Maid, connect me to Yuzu this is important! Yuzu! Yuzu! Check your front pockets, Halil and Olga might be in there still! It's an emergency! Don't do your laundry!"

Who exactly is the 'we' in this situation? And who's Yuzu?

[Because no he's not going to let just anybody take his duel disk, let alone take it apart and piece it back together willy-nilly. Shay almost bristles at the thought.]

The function is disabled anyway if not gone entirely. Declan made sure of that.

Yuzu is... another me. Like, not like Celina. Like, literally another me. Yuzu is Zuzu, from another parallel dimension. Me-me. A me who has experienced the same world and is, well, holding these.

[She holds up the carded Halil and Olga with a wince.] We had them in our front pockets. Surprise? We want to get them out.

And we need your help Shay, please? We need to try to get them out, so we need a Disk that used to work so we could study it and try and reverse it! Do it for everyone who suffered please? Please?

[Those are doe eyes. Please? Damnit your sister gives you those eyes when she's asking for something.]

[How dare you do him dirty like this. Shay sighs.]

As long as there's a professional actually looking at it, fine.

[On the topic of those cards tho, he peers at them but his expression doesn't shift into any sort of judgemental look. Why should he expect the worst from someone who came from Standard after being totally wrong the first time?]

... I'm not going to accuse you of trying to start a "collection" instead.

Thanks Shay. We're meeting up at Aether Labs with Yuume. Gonna call Tony and Kaiba too to get their heads in on this, and contact Wicke and Faba.

The more heads on this, the better. I really appreciate this. Yuzu and I feel absolutely horrible we forgot all about them. We want our friends out of these cards as soon as possible.

[She smiled, relieved at his assistance.] We'll get your Disk back in one piece. Did you want to borrow mine? I think Kaiba's done with mine? I'll have to ask, he's probably done studying it.

If not, you can borrow my bike.
