[he'd attacked Yu. and not even in the way that they had when they usually fought and sparred and punched each other senseless. he had actually gone after Yu. his mind had screamed for his blood.

and it's starting to scream for him again. it's taking that love and starting to shove it back into the back of his mind, and he looks over at Mikey.

is he... emotional too?]

Do... whatever you need to.

[a flicker of confusion crosses his face as he fights to remain in control.]

Please.

[Is he sure? It's a good question -- and a fair one, considering what they've been through, recently. But Yu takes a moment to respond purposefully, for exactly that reason. He straightens up, making sure to catch Mikey's eye as he nods. Do it. He said so already, but now, his expression is steeped in the same certainty as when h spoke those two words.]

I'm ready.

[Mikey doesn't "get" the Persona thing -- that much is certain. But he's seen Yu summon them before, has seen the cards he uses, so when he holds one up, very much present, albeit currently unbroken...he assumes Mikey will at least understand the subtext he's trying to communicate. He's ready.]

(he can't, he can't, he can't

he CAN'T

not without the darkness, not with how shitty this feels, not with the fear of being abandoned over his violence all over again. he despises the fact he misses it, hopes for it to return, just once, just now, so the anxiety could stop trying to move his feet in the opposite direction.

he has to.

his eyes close shut, tight so he doesn't have to see, although the sound of his foot stomping on the chest man who's down, a man he cares about, might haunt him for a while. he might as well be exactly what he looks like - completely defeated, as his fists punch the disease out of yosuke. once he's done, once he can feel it in his knuckles, he stops.

stained hands hide in his pockets, back turned to the scene and a head gesture. heal him.)
