[Malice in his voice and a wicked manic tilt to his expression -- the last bit of confirmation that Yu needs before his heart drops into his stomach. So Yosuke really is infected...and in this moment, Yu believes fully that that infection has him set on murdering Mikey. It's a devastating blow, mentally, but one he was prepared for, even if it's still hard to stomach. He's watching the situation, watching Susano-o appear, watching Yosuke give the order...
Something sparks in the back of his mind, some indescribable sense of urgency; of purpose. He knows, in this moment, how deadly Brave Blade can be in the hands of the gnosia-- and he knows how to stop it.]
Not a chance! [The words feel ripped from his throat, spurred on by something bigger than him, something compelled to act as a guardian. He dives in front of Mikey and calls Rangda --of course it's Rangda, the Magician, how ironic-- forth. The barrier she erects in front of him shines like a shield as the attack hits...and bounces off, repelled back at Yosuke.
Yosuke is meant to fight him anyway, while Mikey figures out how to cure this. In some way, maybe Yu is hoping that he'll be able to bait Yosuke by knowing he was willing to protect the other teen.]
