[ Oh, Bakura is so keeping it up - and when she thinks she sees her opponent faltering, tired from laughter and giddiness and the relief of not being at that stupid party any more, perhaps of being Atem and not the High Priestess anymore - she pounces, aiming to tackle Atem down into the water.
It would be so easy, she realizes. So easy, while Atem's guard is down like this, and she's having fun. Bakura wouldn't even have to bring out Diabound. Just hold her down, keep holding her down, and -
But it wouldn't be enough. Wouldn't make up for everything she's learned, everything she's remembered. Her people have suffered for fifteen years. She's not about to let their tormentors off easy with a single night.
Not about to let Atem slip away before Bakura's stolen all of her.
So she shoves Atem down into the water, and grins at her through it, Bakura in the air with Atem's sight blurred, Bakura the one who can see clearly - but once she's made her point, she'll let the Princess up. And keep staring at her. And grinning.

In her exhilaration, she even looks fond. ]
