[Ryou frowns. It sounds about like what he'd expect from the other Yugi at this point--moves ahead of where anyone else was. He'd mentioned a dead man's switch before, so it wasn't out of the realm of possibility that he could be planning this far ahead.
But that's just how he thinks of things, after all. Like a larger-than-life board game that you need to think ten moves ahead for.
The shade reaches a hand forward, as if he instinctively wished to make contact...but he stopped just short of it, simply flattening his too-large hand and fingers on the table. This isn't Adam. Hell, he's not even sure if this is real friendship, or if their current relationship is simply based on a connection from back home. A connection which Ryou had been the one to bring up. A connection that, quite frankly, was in absolute doubt in his mind not just because the other Yugi had no point of reference to go off of, but because when one is experiencing rampant imposter syndrome, nothing feels genuine.
But he's still here, still wanting to help, because if nothing else, he can't keep from believing that's part of who he is.]
Yugi, I think now that you've got your puzzle back and taken your revenge, maybe it wouldn't hurt to take a couple steps back. You just turned into something new and with everything going on, maybe you just need to, erm. Decompress. And not plan so much in a short span.

[The unspoken line there is "you need a BREAK."]
