Questions and Answers with the cast of Only A Memory Away
Pretty Freak’s questions:
Lily, as far as the relationship with Joey goes, if you hadn't had the problems in the past that you'd had, how would you have reacted to his saying he was falling in love with you?
Lily- I probably would have handled it a wee bit better then I did.
Duke- A pack of lions on a gazelle would have handled it better then you did, Lil.
Lily- I was not that bad! But seriously though, I would have had a similar reaction to what I did.....I mean Joey and I barely know each other and if someone can fall in love with you that easily they can fall out of love just as quickly. What Joey feels for me is not love, it’s infatuation.
Hey Seto...what exactly did you DO to that bitch that messed Lily up so bad?
Seto smirks and crosses his arms- I did what I had to do to protect my investment.
Lily- Investment? I’m an investment?
Seto- Yes, you are.
Lily- Sometimes, Kaiba I’m not sure whether you’re complementing me or insulting me and furthermore......Wait, what did you do to Julia? I haven’t seen her around school or Domino for a while.
*Seto just continues to smirk.*
*locks Lily and Seto in a cupboard...ok, two cupboards, one for each...no, wait, the same one* OK, guys, tell me your reactions PLEASE if you received the news Seto and Lily were going out? *pulls out Quick Quotes quill*
Yu-Gi- As long as they make each other happy I think it would be great. Kaiba might loosen up a bit.
Joey- No way, man. I would be the better choice for her, after all I am “The Godfather Of Games.” Rich Boy doesn’t know how to make anyone but himself happy, Lily deserves better. Someone special who understands her and accepts her for who and what she really is.
Mokuba- It would be great, and Joey shut up about Godfather of games stuff. I swear ever since the movie came out it’s been godfather of games this, godfather of games that. It gets on a persons nerves after a while! You are right though Lily deserves someone really great and if I can ever get her and Seto to stop fighting long enough I think that someone would be my big brother.
Tristan- Kaiba and Lily going out must mean it’s the end of the world as we know it.
Tea- Shut up, Tristan! Is that anyway to talk about a friend of ours? If Lily and Kaiba get together this will be difficult for us to accept but we are Lily’s FRIENDS and FRIENDSHIP is EVERYTHING! And if we can’t support our FRI- - -
(At this point during the Q&A Jadedheart26 comes out “borrows” Pretty Freak’s wand and cast’s a silence spell on Tea. Even though her mouth is moving no sound comes from her. Amid bows and applause JH26 hands Pretty Freak back her wand and makes her way back into the shadows)
Duke- Thank god, I would have shut her up myself but I didn’t want to lose my rep with the Ladies.
Mokuba- What rep? That you use more eyeliner than they do? More hair spray or is it gel this week?
Yu-Gi- Guys, this young lady was nice enough to take time out of her busy day and ask us these questions the least we can do is answer them without all this bickering.
*Suddenly there comes a glow from Yu-Gi’s puzzle and he suddenly appears more mature and confident.*
The Pharaoh- We all have a destiny that we need to fulfill. Perhaps Lily is what Kaiba needs to put to rest the ghosts in his past and come to terms with his destiny.
Duke- Ha! I’ll tell you what, if they end up going out I’m gonna drug her, tie her up, throw her in the trunk of my car and drop her off at the nearest convent! Kaiba will do nothing but cause Lily pain and she’s been through enough of it.
Purplechipmunk ask’s:
Umm... Just wondering, why didn't (err.. Julia? that one girl...) get into huge trouble or whatever for stabbing Lily's hand? I mean, couldn't Lily sue for money? Or do the Japanese not do that...
Lily- Yes, I could sure for money and emotional damage and all that happy stuff but I’m choosing not too. The less I have to deal with Julia the better, she’s a psycho. Next time she might not just stop at my hand.
Savvygirl76 ask’s:
Duke, why are you so overprotective of Lily?
Duke- Lily’s like the younger sister—
Lily- By a few months only.
Duke- As I was saying before I was sooooo rudely interrupted....Lil’s like the younger sister I never had. I guess that’s one of the reasons that I’m so over-protective of her.
Lily- One of the reasons? What do you mean one of?
Duke- Well, with what happened a couple of years ago and when I saw for myself what went on with your Uncle, I guess it just added to the over protectiveness.
Kaiba- What do you mean what went on with her Uncle?
Lily- Let’s just say that if I were to say that my Uncle is a cruel cold hearted bastard it could be taken as a complement and one of the nicer things that has ever been said about Jean-Paul Tao.
Lily, what have you been doing for the past two years?
Lily- Um.....I guess you could say that I’ve been looking for myself.
Duke- Looking for yourself? I haven’t seen or heard from you in two years and then when asked about it all you can say is that you’ve “been looking for yourself”?
*Lily sighs* What do you want me to say, Devlin? That after having lost Adam and being forced to move back in with Uncle Jean-Paul and deal with....everything again that I wussed out and ran away to England. That I couldn’t stand the look of pity in everybody’s eyes when they looked at me? That I had to get away and be selfish for once in my damn life and do what was best for me and not everyone else?
Duke- If it’s the truth yes.
Lily- Then that’s what happened.
Duke, where did the nickname Angel for Lily come from?
Duke- The first time I saw her was at a Christmas party her Uncle was throwing. I guess it wasn’t long after she and her siblings had come to live with him and my parents worked for her Uncle’s company, we were each around 7 or so at the time I think.
Lily- I don’t remember seeing you there.
Duke- You were keeping to yourself in a corner.
Lily- Sounds like me back then. Hell, sounds a lot like me now.
Duke- As I was saying at the party a lot of the other kids were clamoring around trying to get the Santa’s attention....Except Lily. She was just standing there staring up at the angel on the Christmas tree, she looked so sad and lonely. She kinda reminded me of that angel on the tree, in all honesty...Untouchable, alone, separate from everything around her but a part of it as well. From that day on whenever I saw her I couldn’t help but think of the angel on top of the tree and then when I got to know her I found out that the nickname pissed her off to no end so I called her that just to annoy her for a while.
Lily- I still can’t remember the day it stop being annoying and just became sweet. You always were a pain in my ass, Devlin.
Duke- And I always will be.
Joey, are you really gonna ask Duke to see those formal dance pictures?
Joey- As soon as I get a chance too. I bet Lily was just as beautiful then as she is now.
Lily- I was a total geek with braces.....It’s not a pretty sight, Joey.
Joey- I’m sure you’re over-reacting, everyone thinks they look awful in photographs.
Duke- Actually Joey, she did look like a total geek. Braces, glasses and this god- awful pink dress.
Lily- Pink is evil. That’s all I have to say about that. Pink is completely and totally evil.
Duke- It wasn’t the fact of it being pink more like the shade of pink honestly.
Lily- Pepto Pink satin with a big old bow on my butt. I hated that thing with a passion but...certain people thought I looked liked “A proper young lady” in that thing.
Duke laughs- I remember that you kept threatening to burn it before the night was over.
Lily- As soon as I got a chance too that thing did go on a nice little bonfire at the beach...Went up pretty damn fast too.
Lily, if you have such a hard time getting close to people, why did it not seem to take long for you to be comfy with Joey?
Lily- To help answer that I guess I have to answer it with a question: Why did Kaiba and I get on each others nerves almost instantly? I would just have to say it’s the way some peoples personalities just naturally interact with each other. There’s just something about Joey that you can’t help but like, I’m sorry to say this Joey but you really do remind me of a cute little puppy.
*Joey groans while Duke and Kaiba chuckle.*
Lily- I’m serious, guys! Who has ever not looked into the eyes of a puppy and not just wanted to pick them up and hug them?
Seto, why was Ichiro Ulan fired?
Seto- Ichiro Ulan was fired for breech of contract.
Mokuba- Breech of contract is my brothers nice way of saying that his personal assistant was fired for trying to sell Kaiba Corp. information to a rival company.
Seto- That as well as other issues were reasons for her dismissal.
Mokuba- What were the other reasons, Seto?
Seto- One’s that you’re too young to know.
Duke- That mean’s her found her on his desk na—
*Lily very nicely and lovingly places a strip of duct tape on Duke’s mouth.
Duke glares at Lily and she just smiles back sweetly.*
Seto- Thank you, Tao.
Lily- No big. I love Duke dearly but he has to learn when to KEEP HIS MOUTH SHUT!
*Duke just continues to glare at Lily while she chuckles and kisses the tip of his nose.*
