[He chuckles softly. Marik doesn't know Mokuba particularly well outside of what Kaiba's told him but he can imagine the scenario perfectly.]
I understand, trust me. It's good Mokuba was able to do something for you.
[... Oh.
Marik rubs the back of his neck, his face heating up at how much this gift actually means to the other teen. To him, it's no big deal that he got him a very specific present. He's his friend and... that's why friends do, right? At least, that's what he's seen other people do.]
Y-Yeah. You and I both prefer our privacy with our personal lives so I didn't want to make a big deal out of it, especially given what Leizi did.
[He gives King a big ol' hug in return before the Goodra goes to test the new coat.]
Next time we're back in Goldenrod, I'll take you to the shop I commissioned it from. They could probably recreate anything for you.
... And then Kaiba goes and says that. If this were a Duel, that comment alone would have reduced his life points to zero. But this isn't a Duel, so instead Kaiba just gets to watch the blonde go through a wave of reactions. Anger, embarrassment, then utter defeat at such a betrayal to his delicate, easily inflated ego.]
Mmmph!
[He pinches the bridge of his nose and looks away, trying to hide his face.]
I can't believe he arrived in the same outfit I just bought...!
[It's been that embarrassing for him that he hasn't worn that particular combo since and usually keeps the jacket zipped up if he does.]

[ Leizi just laughs some more. Seto shakes his head, but he looks interested in Marik's offer. ]
If I can save up for it, I might commission more pieces...I've been thinking about color coordinating with my team, or at least my aces.
[ He stands next to King, takes in the shades of lavender and grey. ]
But a project like that's going to be for the elite battles. When I become a champion, I want to make sure it's never forgotten.

He lowers his hand from his neck and waves it dismissively at Kaiba.]
I'm sure you can save up for it.
[Or he can do it. That works too. Bahiti isn't leaving his team any time soon.
Hmm. He could get that nice sleeveless hoodie commissioned for the summer...]
That sounds perfect. I can't wait to see what you come up. I'm sure King will be thrilled that you'll match him.
[Oba too! He zips around them. Triplets!]

You could craft a solid outfit in Chenzira's colors. And you wouldn't have to worry so much about wearing the same thing as Atem.

... Gold, red, and black would look nice. Maybe some purples for Usi.
no subject
...ah. Guess I owe you an apology. Technically you were here first, so he should've been the one to change.
But you'd look great. Personal style's important in competition.
no subject
No. ... You don't. More than one person is allowed to wear the same thing, I know that.
[An exasperated sigh because it's Marik.]
... Thanks though.
[Finally he smiles.]
I wonder if there's a color you don't look good in. Do you have any?
[Spill the details, Kaiba. Inquiring minds wish to know.]
no subject
Probably not yellow. Or orange. Sorry, Leizi.
[ The Raichu squeaks indignantly, but it's okay! She'll just snuggle up again. ]
Should I be worried about this question?
no subject
... Yeah, those would be... hard to make work. I guess it would depend on the shade and what you paired it with.
[He chuckles.]
Nah. No ulterior motives, I swear. Not this time, at least. I was just curious.
