So Pegasus and I managed to get the Rod from Yami no Malik and it is much better off in my hands

... What happened?

[ryuutomoshibi]

We tried to take to Rod from him while he was drugged and sleeping, but he woke up. Twice in the process, actually. He actually was fully awake the second time though and got up and started making threats.

...So I broke his arm.

[white_kokoro]

*winces a little* ... Oh.

[ryuutomoshibi]

It's alright - it will keep him from trying to hurt anybody too soon.

[funny_bunny_fan]

For the best, yes, I suppose you could say that. *faint accusing note* That was a compound fracture you gave him, Set. The doctors say it might not set properly.

[ryuutomoshibi]

I'm afraid I can't apologize - if I've lessened his capacity to harm anyone else permanently, then all the better.

And I would say that I don't know what came over me, since it is true that I don't normally behave like that, but I do know.

[funny_bunny_fan]

I didn't ask you to apologize, did I? Malik probably won't let you close enough to right now anyway. All I want is for you to know how much harm you caused.

*looks at him* It might have been the Rod you know.

[ryuutomoshibi]

Would you rather I had left him be? Do you realize he'd already be here with poisoned blades and an army of his dumb grunts around the city trying to get it back?

It was the Rod, I won't deny it. I already warned Seto how protective of the Item itself the Rod makes me and that it makes me rather cruel in combat - after what Malik had already done to me, my desire to harm him was largely amplified by the Rod once it was in my grasp.

All you did was break his arm? I admire your self-restraint, though I can't really say I condone it in this instance.

[ryuutomoshibi]

I made breaking his arm satisfying enough. I didn't simply sever the bone as I could have...I held him still with the Shadow's and used the extra strength they provided to actually bend the bone first. I was enjoying watching him coldly as I slowly twisted it and kept him still while he screamed, but Pegasus was begging me to stop and I realized I was getting carried away, so I ended it by letting the bone snap and releasing him.

[kc_ceo]

I still say that was a modest revenge, as revenges go.

[ryuutomoshibi]

True. But I was not there for revenge, I just hurt him because he woke up and started making threats.

And the screams I got out of him were enough to at least temporarily quell my desire for revenge.
