... Hilariously I think like, things have not changed greatly for Flynn and Yuri because he was already at optimal dependency/dere for Yuri. He will be a lot more upset if Yuri went missing again and a LOT more 8| if something ever happened to Yuri, but since there is kind of Estelle in their room he has not been strongly interested in exploring the other... things... they are able to do now that they are dating.
Also we should thread them in that empty room we talked about so that they can actually do something.
Okay hard question time, Yuri's thoughts/feelings on Chariot atm since we mostly just rolled on them over gchat.
Well like I said in gchat Yuri definitely felt Chariot's coldness after Vincent dumped him off and it hurt. He was surprised at how much it hurt! Because even though they have been drifting lately Yuri considered Cherry the person in Aather he puts the least amount of front with, the only person he genuinely relaxed around, and the only person he really had fun with outside of games! And he also has a lot of fond memories with Chariot. He was prepared for backlash after Vincent went on his murderspree but he was honestly not expecting to lose Chariot in the deal, since the one significant conversation they DID have involved fears about being bad people. And it's not like they had a fight or anything. At least with say, Raven, he can be mad and bitchy and fight it; this doesn't feel like something he can fight, it feels like total rejection.
So! After everything gets settled he will probably try to reestablish contact unobtrusively...! Like, not try to force the relationship back to what it was or get all up in Chariot's busyness but maybe slowly try to build up his trust again so at least it doesn't feel fake every time they talk. Cause he loves Chariot :( Bromance.
Re... verse? Though you already talked more about Chariot. How do you think he will respond to Yuri trying to be solicitous?
I babbled more about Chariot's feelings on the whole thing here if you haven't read it already, mostly working out WHY he suddenly just /quit Yuri because it was something that kind of surprised me too.
Mmm, I think once the initial sting and frustration settles down, they could probably work something out. I said this over gchat but Chariot won't be going out of his way to avoid Yuri, but he also won't be seeking him out anymore. Spitfire got a healing thing recently, Hibari and Sasuke are his main training buddies, Hazel is his new draping-terrorism target; he'll be doing his best to kind of fill in the Yuri gaps to kind of... wean himself off of how important/prominent Yuri is in his life because I'm pretty sure that even though they drifted, they probably still did a lot of little unconscious things for/with each other (couch flopping, meals, clothes stealing, occasional spar, etc).
But I don't think Chariot will ever go around saying Yuri is his best friend again, since he had a moment of self-realization that no they weren't really best friends (considering he is comparing them to like Guy and Zack/Mithos and Lloyd it is a HIGH STANDARD definition of best friends), or even calling Yuri 'Petal' anymore because he doesn't want to put himself at a place again where he thinks he's closer to someone than he really is. And the whole 'Cherry and Petal' thing was kind of a symbol of their unspoken closeness to each other. So I do think they could be casual friends again, but immediately and probably for a while Chariot will be trying not to get involved with Yuri past a casual acquaintance level because he wants some time to... build himself up, so to speak, to be able to get along without needing to depend on Yuri for some of the things that he did. Because Yuri really was his closest bro forever and trying to remove him from that is hard because he's not the kind of person who can naturally just stop caring about someonebut he is determined!! to do it so he doesn't get upset at himself again.
I am totally working things out as I go along don't mind me.
If Chariot got booked RIGHT NOW, how would Yuri react?
Not... well. He is already in a place where he is feeling frustratingly impotent which is part of the reason he just totally rebelled against Mother's game. Not only that, but he feels like a loser for dragging boss down--he knows she messed herself up somehow healing him and Vincent. THANKFULLY he has healthy... ish coping! Yuri channels his feelings into HYPERFUNCTIONALITY. So the more messed up he feels inside the better he will be at decisively handling external affairs. He will be 120% taking care of boss and the teams. With the trade off that all the capacity he has for talking about feelings will totally crash and he will be worse at healthily processing extreme emotions like sadness over Dino being gone and worry over boss.
Answered that a little here but considering the situation is that he can't go home and not that he's dead, Chariot would... pretty much find a way to get back. Bother personae, make iffy deals if he had to, whatever would get him back to the Cavallone family because he can't just leave them like this.
He will try for a LONG time but eventually he might get worn down/broken if all of his efforts continued to be in vain. HOPEFUL HOPELESSNESS kind of thing and it'd be horrible to watch.
