I think . . . He just wanted to pierce his ears . . . Like Vincent didn't mind the tattoo game at all. (And is still upset Iolite lost it, what the hell.) So, he was like this and that are pretty close together, and he wanted to see how that would roll with Yuri. Really, he did enjoy getting pierce Yuri's ears. It was a different form of intimacy which works pretty well with him, and . . . Well, Vincent has a penchant for displays and beauty, okay. He knew Yuri would like goddamn beautiful with earrings, so he could try, whatever.

Oh, it was an apology too! That was after he got a little unlevel at Yuri for visiting Peridot, and was his own way of making amends for that episode. Really, that was more internal than Vincent knowing that Yuri would understand the logic at all, but he was sort of making himself feel better about doing that when he was stupidly stuck with Yuri and didn't realize it.


Gosh, I would like to ask more about Yuri in Vincent's heart game, but Spitfire got that. Uhh, what does Yuri think about what he's getting from his memories and second-hand info? Not cool with himself or his world . . . ?

[edgeofjustice]

FUNNY STORY Yuri also has... self value issues. Or something like that. Basically right now his memories are I'm a delinquent! And a murderer! And good for nothing! It's NOT a self-esteem thing but Yuri just considers himself so inadequate next to perfect Flynn who did everything right. When he's leaving the lower quarter he remarks that they're probably glad to get rid of a 'trouble-making kid', and then later Flynn gives him this speech which has the main point of "You didn't change ANYTHING by quitting the knights." And that is HARD for Yuri. He wants to change things. He knows he spent his whole childhood wanting and waiting to change things about the Empire and the unfairness of nobility v. the poor. The only memories he has of being an effective person are the ones where he's is MURDERING PEOPLE BY HIMSELF, so... Not a great view of himself as a person BUT Yuri is stable stable.

As for his world, he doesn't have much of an opinion yet since most of his memories are isolated incidents. He is kind of exasperated at the whole Aer powers blastia powers destruction of the world thing bit his basic attitude is Eh we'll get over it.

What will we do with all the time we free up by not having sex...

[dormancy]

We can nap. Naps would be great, and we could have lots of them. There could be so many naps, Yuri . . .

Haha, no, no. Uh, Vincent should theoretically have his plate full with the rest of the fall-out from that game, then whenever he makes all of his good decisions with Sasuke. I mean, he doesn't have hobbies, so it's more time to either recuperate or to work the game more . . . Maybe, they shouldn't stop having sex so often. Neither of those options sound at all entertaining.

Randomly, I just thought of that onsen in Vesperia. They should have something like that in Aather. It would be super. Vincent would be one-hundred percent all over that.


What are Yuri's motivations in Aather? Like what does he view as part of his role as a knight? How does he see the system? . . . That sounds lame, but I like hearing about these things, so whatever!!

[edgeofjustice]

That is part of Yuri's problem... He sees his purpose as a knight to help the teams in whatever way he can--take hits, mediate when necessary, etc--but he also thinks the Knight's should be doing more than that, like working more with the Personae to restore the world. He is all for restoring Aather! He is really very fond of the world.

The system... he is less fond of. He doesn't have the same bitterness and hatred towards it because he doesn't know the full span of it like he does the Empire, but that's another reason why he wants an in with the Personae. He wants a better idea of the system before he decides to completely fuck it up.

Would Vincent ever team up with Yuri in an epic plot to over-throw The Man.

[dormancy]

The gains wouldn't outweigh the pains necessary to win it. See, the problem is . . . If they have the choice to dole out memories, there is the potential they could just shred memories, and Vincent is so highly invested in his "former" self that he wouldn't risk that. He will not screw himself over in that way.

After he gets his true wish back? It is more likely, but still not as possible. The Persona outweigh the heroes in power by and large. It's not surprising that those who are completed are given the option to go back home where they cannot pass on their wisdom and so on to those that would try to make such a coup happen.

Hmm, if Yuri could localize and decide on the issue that needs to be changed . . . And Vincent cared enough to have a hand in it rather than a large and futile goal such as taking Persona out of power? That is infinitely more feasible, and Vincent might consider pointing him in the right direction. The problem with Vincent doing something like that is he could undercut the effort in a big way if he could find his own personal gain in it. If you want Yuri and Vincent playing on opposite sides of the field, that would be the best way to get it to happen. He would definitely find whoever would take that sort of information, likely Three at this point, and wheel and deal them to take the largest gain from the set-up. Damn everyone else for trying to upset the system, unfair or not.

THOUGHTS? :)?
