YURI. LOVES. ELLIOT. SO. MUCH. He did kind of fall in love with being Elliot's 'older brother'; he loves playing that role and Elliot is like... pure soul therapy. He stupid love Elliot. I really don't know how else to say it. Love love love. And he loves that he and Vincent (Despite Vincent being himself) sort of bond over trolling poor Elliot... like a real family.
Yes... he is. Maybe next time they thread. He's really just waiting for it to come up. It's a dicey thing, because it's not like he's trying to push Elliot into sex, he just doesn't want him to be so terrified and repressed at it.
Reverse~ Also tell me the psychological damage we did to you, Ellie.
ELLIOT IS JUST GOOD AT DEFYING LOGIC WHEN IT COMES TO FAMILY (unsure). So in his head Yuri is totally family and it is no different than if Elliot had known him his entire life BECAUSE ELLIOT HAS SAID SO SO THERE. So he won't let Vincent get away with acting as if Yuri being his brother is some kind of joke. IT IS SUPER REAL TO HIM. Also he is pretty comfortable around Yuri since Yuri has seen his like, horrible moments of lolo oh god i am an awful person. Yuri still isn't privy to the level of honesty that he gives Leo, but there isn't much he holds back either.
IT ISN'T REALLY TRAUMA SO MUCH AS JUST. OH GOD WHY. Aather is CONSTANTLY RUBBING SEX IN ELLIOT'S FACE and it is becoming more and more obvious that he just like, is not on the same page as the rest of reality. HILARIOUSLY ELLIOT IS ACTUALLY NOT SO STUPID THAT HE CAN'T TELL THAT MUCH (BY NOW...). But he also is just utterly not equipped to deal with it. So it's like. IT'S THE ONE AREA IN WHICH 'I AM ELLIOT NIGHTRAY AND I WILL GET THROUGH THIS' does not fix anything. Elliot's anxiety about sex far overwhelms his ability to bulldoze through all obstacles.
I WISH I WAS RUNNING HIS HEART GAME THIS WEEK and then yuri could see how messed up elliot is but 8D; next mooonth.
MAN, YURI TOTALLY DIGS LUCY. In a world where everything is complicated Lucy is simple, and Lucy doesn't give a fuck! Yuri feels a lot freer with Lucifer than he does with other people, cause no matter what he tells him Lucifer isn't gonna have a ton of feelings at him. As much as Yuri is a willing participant in sort of knocking down his own emotional walls, there is a large part of his that is very knee-jerk like FUCK. FEELINGS. And he doesn't have to do any of that with Lucy!
I'm sorry that lucifer likes you now which is going to be awful for you when he gets kira-ish and starts poking all of your feelings for lulz
Lucifer finds Yuri interesting mostly because he's one of the most comprehensible humans to him. Like, it's not so much 'I UNDERSTAND THIS GUY' but more 'THIS GUY DOES NOT GET ON MY CASE FOR NOT BEING LIKE HIM', which he has never understood. When Lucifer doesn't understand how people operate because they are different, he observes and asks questions. When humans don't understand how Lucifer operates, they get offended and snarky and bitchy and judgmental. HE DOESN'T CARE? But when he isn't intentionally rolling it around out of boredom, it gets a little tiresome. The ones who are the WORST ABOUT IT, like Ven and Suzaku, grate on him. But most people are kind of middle road and he is just like whatev.
Compared to that there are very few humans who are as chill and accepting and helpful as Yuri is. And that actually is worth something to Lucifer, particularly as he is now reaching the point where he can start forming... bonds..? sort of? with people. It kind of puts Yuri in the place of 'IF HE DECIDED TO BE LOYALTY TO ME I WOULD ACTUALLY FIND HIM USEFUL TO HAVE AROUND'. Which doesn't mean he necessarily wants to claim Yuri but Lucifer's relationships pretty much exist in PEOPLE WHO FOLLOW HIM, PEOPLE WHO HATE HIM, and ALEXIEL/SETSUNA flavored categories. So he can't really do thoughts like 'I like this guy we are kind of pals'.
ANYWAY THAT WAS A LOT OF WORDS but basically yes Lucifer likes Yuri for I guess almost exactly the same reasons Yuri likes him. Except Lucifer doesn't actually have feelings to fuck he just wishes people would stop expecting him to be human because it's really dumb.
ALSO WHEN HE SAID THERE IS NOTHING ABOUT YURI HE DISLIKES. he meant that literally. He doesn't SUPER LIKE Yuri he just... nothing about Yuri annoys him.
UM YURI DOESN'T REALLY HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH LUKE SO. YURI AND SLICK =D
I will preface this by saying that Yuri pays a LOT of attention to morality. He can tell the difference between someone being immoral and someone just being completely on a different page, and Yuri canonically NEVER pushes his morality on people. So he is content to exist in this space with Slick that is like, Well, I recognize you have a different morality, and that's fine--as long as you keep out out of my face and off my things. Yuri does not kid himself that he can fix every problem.
But mostly... he is pretty fond of Slick for Slick's sake (I TYPOED THAT AS "SACK"). It is cool to bond with someone has has lived rough, like he has. It is also really cool to get laid, and Slick handled that EXACTLY right--not too forceful, not too much teasing, and a surprising amount of warm affection. It really has been a while for Yuri and considering he just got done saving the world and EVERYONE HE LOVES IS DEAD he was. Kind of really fucking stressed out. And he still is, but Slick is just in general a really nice distraction.
He also gets the sense that Slick really has been around the block a few times, so Yuri thinks he is pretty dependable and reasonable.
TO MY SURPRISE, Slick is actually pretty...happy. in igura. FOR HIM. When he got out of Sabra he was pretty depressed and broke down, but uh, the murdercave does that. And the impending death of everyone you love does that. NOW THAT HE IS ACTUALLY DEAD HE KIND OF DOESN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO WORRY ABOUT? So yes, he is in a pretty good mood overall which means he is bonding toward people a lot faster than I thought he would.
AS SUCH, Yuri is his new favorite thing, Slick is pretty genuinely fond of him. He has such a dere spot for heroic types, but particularly ones like Yuri who are not blind to reality, but just see it for the balls it is and decide to do the right thing anyway. HITS HIM IN HIS DERE FOR ALLEN WALKER place. Or his... 'I could have made that choice but I was too weak to' place. As much as he teases he genuinely respects it. Also he has no small amount of... hm, not self hatred. But self deprecation? Realization of his own lack of worth? So really if Yuri ever decides to try to kill him Slick will totes understand, and that's why he can pretty easily switch to molesting Yuri.
SEX IS JUST... sex. The affection was genuine. Even being crazy, Slick is pretty good at dere (because dere = pleasure and pleasure = how he rolls) and he feels it just as easily as most things. And betwee all of the sex with Allen and Yama he kind of... forgot that sex usually isn't affectionate for him WHOOPS.
And he will totally show up for more because NOW THAT HE CAN'T KILL PEOPLE sex is on the top of the list of fun things he wants to do all the time. (Yuri is really lucky Slick stopped after just twice....)
SO BASICALLY LOLO PRETTY HERO i guess i will bond with him and maybe one day we kill each other but whatevwhatev
