From his perspective she should have. Friendly advice or not, without his having asked for it felt like overstepping. That being said he was briefly stunned to speechless silence as Indigo fired off her impassioned response. This love she was talking about was in a general sense, which downgraded it's legitimacy in his mind. At least he'd never assumed she meant it in the romantic sense, just on some friendship nonsense level. Now he just took it to be words alone. Why would she actually care about him specifically- should have known. Why did he feel marginally bitter that she didn't?
The reference to the Eldritch monster made his eyes widened as his thoughts traveled back to the horrors he'd seen for himself. The image of those destructive unstoppable tentacles combined with the casually dropped detail about her demise genuinely shocked him. "... Not- everyone is worthy of that kind of sacrifice." Sure, that's what he led with, as he looked her over and tried to size her up in his mind and resolve all this new information in his mind. Then he sighed deeply and pressed a hand to his face. "Why are you people like this..?" Not explaining who he was referencing. Why did he have to be burdened with knowing so many people that would literally give up their own lives for others? Ignoring the truth that he had given up his own soul for the benefit of another before he got here. That he would have argued was necessary, the tag duel as a whole depended on it and Yugi had been their best chance at defeating Dartz. It was practical- a strategy. Not as desperate an act as sacrifice...
"I don't recall asking for any help," Although he was still fuming, he at least wasn't retreating. Oddly enough he wasn't really sure what Indigo had to improve. She displayed skills and knowledge of a variety of subjects and she athletic to some degree with combat experience. What, did she want to learn another language? Take up culinary arts? It didn't seem like there was anything all that serious for her to concern herself in improving. She had his best interests at heart if he would only see it.
It was likely evident that he was looking bored, even as she changed tactics. "So you're here to act as the ghost of Christmas Present? Well according to the new designation you're a month too late for that." He was just done, he was likely to learn the hard way. "I wasn't even trying to offend anyone this time.." At least not to this extent- he had meant to amuse himself but not to insight a riot or a debate. ".. and this happened. Maybe... it's already too late, ever consider that?" What was worse is that Kaiba wasn't sure he cared, he kept going back and forth on it.
Damn them indeed :p. Praise those who can tolerate them
