Gonna make this quick and dirty cause I am about to go to bed and you can ask me to expand on something if you want to:
SO. Yuri started flirting with Raven because Raven was hot and it was an easy way to talk to him back when Yuri was avoiding having any real feelings. TIME PASSES and he and Raven bond over canon memories... Yuri notices that Raven basically has terrible self-esteem. Flirting takes on a new note, a note of "Make Raven stop being so negative." TIME PASSES Yuri goes through some shit and becomes like 50x more stable; it basically snaps him into party-leader mode which mean Raven... goes back to being his in a very firm way.
The hot springs dream was very much on the fly--Yuri's sexual interest in Raven is more along the lines of asserting his claim but also just making Raven know that he is worth someone's time, worth Yuri's time. (And it was hot; it wasn't a wholly unselfish gesture)
Yuri's reached the point where he's sick of being bogged down with uncertainty and the negative aspects of the past so it frustrated the HELL out of him when Raven started pulling out a truckload of excuses. He pushed Raven to make sure he was actually serious, and also because he himself was just so sick to death of having to deal with everyone's mental crap! But he recognizes that Raven had a valid point--Yuri's has other people he loves, and he'd never just BE with Raven, and that does hold him back a little. Hurting Raven is the opposite of what he wants to do.
His feelings about Raven are actually pretty straightforward: you're mine, stop being a moron. He really DOESN'T care if Raven doesn't want to sleep with him, but if he does and he's just scared and throwing a bunch of what-ifs around to push the issue off Yuri is going to punch him.
Now... tell me all your feelings about that thread Raven. Also, what are you gonna do :3.
