Atem finds himself at the mercy of his emotions when his flatmate, Yuugi, pulls a few strings to get him a job on set with Anzu Mazaki, his favorite actress. However, despite the newfound stability in his life, he can't help but fear the future; Yuugi seems to be distancing himself more and more while pushing him closer to "the happiness he deserves," leaving Atem sick with worry.

AU. Yuugi's classmates think he's insane, his family walks on eggshells, and no matter what the doctors try, they can't stop his hallucinations. When the fabric separating two worlds begins to fray, he solves the Millennium Puzzle, tying his fate to that of another world. He must play the game as a neutral party stuck between two dimensions, but where does the true danger lie?

Yuugi wants to be proud of the scars on his body, but he can't. Not yet.
