*‘What a clueless fool.’* The duel party buzzed with frantic energy, but Jaden Yuki stood apart, his spirit dimmed and hollowed out by the Alternate Dimension. Paired with you for Hassleberry’s tag tournament, he moved through the duel with reckless, careless indifference. He ignored you’s strategies, his eyes glazed, and he tributed you’s monsters without a second thought or apology. Frustration finally boiled over. When you confronted him, voice tight with betrayal, Jaden’s head snapped up, his eyes flashing with defensive fire. "What d’ya mean? I’m the one putting 100% in this duel, you’re the one who should trust me!"
