Musings Under Moonlight, 16.

Longing.

It’s a simple, boring word yet it spans a vast array of feelings—desire, hunger, hope, aspiration, melancholy. It is often hushed, acknowledged only behind closed doors, and with each and every moment it spends hidden, it burns as an invisible catastrophe.

Longing.

It’s a restless, lasting, often wistful need for something, someone, unattainable. It’s as gray as asphalt, equally rough, jagged and cutting as its reflective cracks. It is earnest and deep, profound and engulfing as the ocean.

Longing.

It’s a tragedy, when one is enraptured by longing. For like its sisters, grief and anger, it too, has an iron grip, similarly unrelenting and unforgiving. It is subtle, a master of concealment in shadowed blues, surfacing only during the least expected moments and striking like the most venomous viper.

But you aren’t spellbound by it, are you, avecilla?

One thing I dislike about the SDRA2 fandom is the way they treat Yoruko, most people just call her Sora’s girlfriend and leave it at that, and rarely acknowledging her flaws like when she told Yuki to stop crying over Shinji’s death.

I don’t think it is a problem specific to this fandom. I see problems like this, of reducing a character to one-single personality trait and/or backpack for a ship, in every fandom I have ever been in. There is always, unfortunately, at least one character that gets hit with that stick. It sucks but it is unfortunately common.

I imagine that this kind of discussion might have been a matter of timing, as I imagine it would have happened around chapter 4 release and translation.

Another factor that might impact this, is the matter of, when comparing to everyone else plot, Yoruko being the civilian type of character who is minor-ly connected to the situation at hand. That is: Not a Void, Not a victim/murderer who unleashes a subplot, not getting possessed, not amnesiac, not doing crypit actions. I feel that this contributes to, in a way, calling less attention when there are more bombastic/attention-calling scenarios happening.

That said, yeah, there is more of Yoruko than all of this one-note-ness.

(sweating as I answer this quest due to not having the time to rewatch everything)

(Edit: extra sweat over me taking a very long while to answer this due to rewatching chapter 4)

Anyway, back to the subject in question. Flaw discussion ahead 

Yeah that you mentioned was fucked up.

I think it usually ends being shrouded due to Chapter 4 having so much things going on already that a small detail like this ends up lost in the sea of bombastic revelations, personality switches, the *grimace* jokes, the anxious and general hopeless tone of the chapter.

My usual interpretation is that this is more Yoruko losing it due to the sheer stress of the chapter. Syobai himself points out in the elevator that everyone is at their limit. I do think it is a manifestation of one of her flaws.

It is also very sad that due to the narrative structure + trial’s twist (Yuki thinks he killed Shinji), Yuki doesn’t get the proper space to mourn Shinji. It gets even sadder in that, due to everything else going on, (Sora trying to not lose it since she acted in a way that either SHE is the killer or made Nikei is the killer + the grappling with what the hell had happened to her body moving unnaturally + what the hell had happened with emotions seemingly being artificially entered in her body; Nikei beneficiates from Yuki losing it; Yoruko having the gnawing suspicion that Sora may have something to do with the murder), no one gives him space to mourn or talk about his mourning.

And then in chapter 5, everything gets worst due to the whole personality insertion and again we aren’t able to dwell on that.

Anyway, sorry, probably not the ask’s point. Going back to the topic.

Disclaimer: I love Yoruko to bits. Flaw discussion ahead.

That said, I would personally ascribe Yoruko’s flaws as something else. That phrase seems to have been said in the heat of the moment, instead of something consistent that happens.

If I had to point a flaw, I would say that it would be her tendency to kind of……glue / lash into people. This happens with Minako, in that Yoruko practically changed her entire life to be around her, gaining a talent in a business she previously had no interest, and then it somewhat happens with Sora, in that as the killing game stakes rise, she glues herself harder to Sora and mostly agrees with her. While, through the game, she learns to call out Sora when she thinks she is wrong (end 4, first part 5), I would say it is a tendency Yoruko has and a flaw.

We can see how this affects her life, in that it destroys her relationship with Minako, due to her admiration blinding her for what was happening around her, and in that it causes her conflict with other people in the killing game for defaulting to side with Sora (who is not always right, as in chapter 5) or talking back against people who either stress herself or Sora.

Related to that flaw, she gets defensive fast, be it as a tsundere characteristic, as lashing like that, or talking rudely to people when she is stressed. Which can and does hurt people feelings. I do think that due to Sora’s personality aka the person who most talks with Yoruko, Sora is able to…… bounce out of it / not be bothered by it, but it would be highly more frustrating and could hurt people feelings.

This…… err…… I am not sure how to phrase it, extreme admiration (?) (in the general sense of Yoruko’s tendency to glueing/lashing herself to a person) blinds her through the game to Sora’s flaws, and so causes Yoruko to not question Sora.

Her tsundere tendencies also impact negatively Yoruko, in that it doesn’t allow her to be more……explicit in what she meant when she fought with Sora in 4, and thus it causes a bigger fight with her that only is resolved mid chapter.

To be clear, I think Yoruko’s fight was valid due to it being both her snapping under all of KG paranoia much like the other characters + Sora’s flaws themselves, in that she was cryptic right after the trial where she revealed she had a role in the murder, and in the way she procrastinated resolving things with Yoruko.

In conclusion, I would say that Yoruko’s flaws would be: her tendency to the hyper admiration of certain people, which leads her to blinding herself to her surroundings and how people are being affected by it; her tendency of not being clear of what is bothering her (as an offshoot of her tsundereness), which causes misunderstandings; and of being defensive/lashing out when under pressure.

Hi Again! It's The Younger Sibling Anon, I'm Just Wondering If You Would Write The Same Younger Sibling Who Always Steal Their Clothes But With Kokoro, Yoruko And Sora! If You Do This Thanks! <3

(wanna check out pt.1? check here!!)

ılı.lıllılı.ıllı. ılı.lıllılı.ıllı. ılı.lıllılı.ıllı. ılı.lıllılı.ıllı.

ᥫ᭡ ; kokoro, yoruko, and sora with a younger sibling who always steals their clothes!!

ᥫ᭡ [a/n] ; i’ve finally finished this request! i love this prompt sm so im super glad you requested this prompt again!! hope you enjoy it anon!!!

tw!!: not really proofread, small spoilers (?) !!

ılı.lıllılı.ıllı. ılı.lıllılı.ıllı. ılı.lıllılı.ıllı. ılı.lıllılı.ıllı.

— kokoro will definitely be annoyed, although she lacks a lot of basic emotions, she still feels some annoyance when she sees her new shirt that she couldn’t find this morning was on you, and you didn’t even care that she called you out on it

— kokoro let’s you steal her clothing, but only because she wants to observe her emotions overtime and how she reacts to it, she kinda views everything as somehow of a project (if it manages to make her react to something) and this is no different

— kokoro will notice that the laundry load has decreased, and how certain clothing she wants to wear must be hidden from you so that you won’t steal it, so she claims that she sees the instance as a “positive inconvenience” in a way? it hard to explain

— she won’t stop you from wearing her clothes if you’re already wearing them, but if she happens to catch you taking something from her closet she will snatch it from your hands, if you aren’t wearing it yet that doesn’t mean that she can’t take it right?

— “stop taking my clothing… don’t you have your own..?”

ılı.lıllılı.ıllı. ılı.lıllılı.ıllı. ılı.lıllılı.ıllı. ılı.lıllılı.ıllı.

— the most annoyed out of the three, like hello? didn’t you have already a bunch of clothes? whether it’s her new shoes, or some of her work clothes, she’ll be super upset, and don’t be surprised if she scolds you for it

— yoruko is probably the most organized in your household, and when she does the laundry she will notice how there’s basically none of your clothes in the batch, and only hers.. and when that happens yoruko probably has had enough of you

— yoruko will definitely set some complicated lock on her closet that only she knows the password too, and imagine her satisfaction when she sees your pouting face and you wearing your own clothing (for once) when you come downstairs

— so unless you manage to somehow figure out past her super complicated lock without yorukos brain, i don’t think you’ll be able to wear some of her nice clothes to nice outings for a while now unless you ask her (politely)

— “hah! finally you wear your own clothing, took you long enough!”

ılı.lıllılı.ıllı. ılı.lıllılı.ıllı. ılı.lıllılı.ıllı. ılı.lıllılı.ıllı.

— one of the more chill older siblings when this happens, but i think she’d end up a little more annoyed when it just became kind of a daily thing, and when she runs out of basically anything in her closet she’s decided to have a chat with you

— because you’re her sister (and the only thing she really remembers when it comes to family) so she’ll express to you how she doesn’t appreciate the lack of her on clothing in her own closet, so she suggests ideas that come to her brain to fix the issue

— the only conclusion you both really came too an agreement was her giving you the clothing you really liked from her closet, and in exchange buying her some new clothes at the mall/other clothing shops so that you were even

— so far it’s working! sora tries her best to remember to be patient with you and be a good older sibling since you’re basically one of the only family members she even remembers having, so compromising it a big thing with her and you

— “… i’ll let you have 5 shirts if you buy my 5 more tomorrow”
