For his part Joey wasn't helping as he wasn't backing down initially and he was remaining very much in the other him's personal space. If he'd been having some kind of argument with oh.. say .. Tristan it probably would have devolved into some roughhousing already. The only thing preventing it now was the fact that while this other Jou was like him they were also somehow very different and Joey didn't fully understand it. He needed the other to be able to talk in order to dispel some of that confusion.
Noting the movement he also doesn't react or avert his eyes. "Geezle..... " It was only after death was injected into the tale that he backed off a bit in an attempt to diffuse tensions. "Man... I don't even.... I don't know what ta say." Besides 'who is Ryuzaki'? "I mean.. it's not hard to tell that it took a toll on you.... "Looking down to the ground. "... but you all made it right? I mean... doctors aside...?" That sounded horrible so he muttered an apology on the doctors behalf. It wasn't right to rank one life over another though he wanted to hear that the friends in that universe came out okay.
Also he was starting to notice this odd pattern when Kaiba came up. "I'm surprised dat Kaiba even cared..." Huffing. Then he felt some regret for that too. "Naw.. I mean.. dats not really fair either........ " Thinking back to how Kaiba had sacrificed himself to allow Yami Yugi to finish the duel with Dartz. " I mean... I might give him a hard time... but Kaiba's not all bad. I swear if you tell him, I will wring your neck!" He's kidding. Probably. ".... You keep almost saying 'she' don't you?"
The look is a little unnerving. "What do I see...? Is this a trick question....?" Puzzling over it. "I see.... da duel?" Said as a question because he's not getting it.
That would be painful XD
