Pffthahahaha!! Oh, gosh, let us just want the same thing and never push the other far enough to get it ever.
So, Vincent is trying to be ~better~ and be ~behaved~ around Yuri. He realizes that he's very greedy in wanting to get Yuri to bend his way in a lot of different cases, so he's trying to cue off what Yuri seems to wants which is never really easy to figure out. The shibari went well in that Vincent didn't catch on, until he had his first genuine thought of I want X . . . Then, he immediately stamped down on it, because it wasn't that Yuri wanted it; it was what he wanted. He can't misbehave or impose anymore! It has become an awful crutch that needs to stop! Half the reason that Vincent wants to spend time with Mother is that he is trying to kill out how easily he lets Yuri see what he really wants. He was lusting after being used and abused, then left out to dry which isn't a Sane Thing for most people. (Like, not that he could do it, but if Yuri would have gotten tears out of Vincent in that thread, it would be have been super A++ in his book.) Vincent knows that if he puts that expectation on Yuri, then Yuri will meet it! . . . But he shouldn't have to, nor should that be an object at all. The mess of a person that Vincent is needs to be locked up away from other people, because it's just not meant for them.
The same issue popped up again after sex when Vincent couldn't read into what Yuri wanted without certainty. It's really difficult to guess off him, so he walked away from the situation rather than making a mistake. He's terrified of another telling mistake setting off between them, so it's easier to just take a step back and let Yuri cue better.
So, what's Yuri think of Vincent's absence with brother around? :)
