What if Y/N is just like Yuuji though? Like, adjusting her likings according to people around her. (Maybe even lead to identity crisis since Y/N doesn't even have her OWN favourites? Ykwim.)
Oh, this got me thinking. I’m of similar mindset, so i get what you’re trying to say! (Thank you to my best friend for the help lmao.)
Although very hesitant since he is used to his main purpose of being a vessel, it would start slow. It would be a little hard for him to break out of those habits and lean more into his own personality. Slowly, he would push some of his influence, likes, dislikes and opinions onto you. It wouldn’t be very obvious at first since he doesn’t want to draw attention to it, but if you wield positive results to what he’s doing, it will continue and he will be less inclined to hide what he’s doing. It’s as if he’s the one pulling the strings instead of you. This probably isn’t an ideal situation.
If you react negatively, he will still try and figure out what makes you tick. Putting on the hat of observation and almost stalkerish tendencies. How do you react to certain situations? Certain stimuli? What do your eyes linger on the most? Who are you most comfortable being around? What makes you uncomfortable? What brings out your ‘stronger/inner personality’? Surely you must have some kind of things you prefer. He will go from there. (If you don’t, the scenario above will probably still go on, he will just approach things differently.)
I wouldn’t be surprised if he went to certain extremes to draw reactions out of you. Putting himself and others in danger or in… unideal situations. Or messing up your relationships with the other characters. Nothing explicitly malicious, though.
Even when you aren’t playing the game, there will always be that chilling feeling of something watching your every move.
