Yuri, her brother, who Yor loves unconditionally and she raised him on her own. Yuri absolutely is struggling to not be dependent on Yor. He wants to become a child around her as an adult to some extant. He's internally conflicted about it as chapters go on, and especially as this arc shows he's not in denial but still frustrated. He remains over the top, and for a while I did think it was almost like a bit. But he physically dies over Yor telling him "no, you're an adult, also i want to cuddle with my husband"

But then, Loid is just the foil to Yuri in the other direction. Loid/Twilight is so independent. That's part of his trauma and who he is and how war shaped him. His perfectionism is literally giving him stomach pain but he fears without perfectionism he'll not survive. Yor wants Loid to have depend on her, but he says "i'm not perfect enough as a spy" mentally. He's running away from Yor being intimately caring of him but also his body fails to follow his brain about it.

Yor is then stuck in the situation of, with Yuri, having a brother who won't stop bothering her even though he's older and can take care of himself. And Yor doesn't want Yuri to rely on her anymore, because what would the parenting have all been for?

And, with Loid, who she asked to continue the marriage. From Yor's perspective, Loid is the man she chose to be with -> she wants to take care of him, and her reasoning is perfect -> he's the first man who has reciprocated emotional needs she never realized she had. She wants him to fall apart, so she can do his laundry and make him breakfast at least once in a while. She loves him. And she has agency and can set conditions on this love for Loid (especially for when the eventual reveal may happen) unlike her inherent unconditional love for Yuri.

But Loid is currently trying to avoid all of that, because his childhood had parents and friends dying, father telling him he's not good enough, and just the lived reality of being a war orphan. Getting into a relationship is dangerous to his fragile emotional security.

In eng translation it seems like Yuri got indignant by the whole sentence (or just the «obnoxious» part)

But first i read this chapter in ru translation so i noticed some differences

Chloe says that she finds Yuri's behavior cute yet exhausting.

And instead of "Hey!" he exclaims "Cu..." (cute) here.

So this is the only thing that confused him lol

I checked the original to make sure and it goes the same here!!

His half-word is «かわいい» - «kawaii"

I just found it funny cause.. Yuri's coworkers insult him regularly, he's so used to it to the point where he gets mad at a positive take about him lmaooo

!!!CONTENT WARNING!!! Depression 💀 Just... pure depression 💀 Also, long post, a 14-page long post 💀

You have been warned. Enjoy your treat 😌

Yuri is in hell. He lied. He does not have the patience for this. Why is nothing biting?!? (Stop reeling it in so quickly Yuri- I will stop helping. Good. Don't help me Lottie I don't want it.)

Loid is having something approaching a good time actually. He's gotten two fish and one that he had to throw back due to its size. He'll catch at least one more and have a nice dinner for everyone but Yuri who will refuse to eat what he's caught. (But will eventually give in because it does smell good and no it tastes good too life is so unfair.)

Anya was all excited about it but got bored about 5 minutes in and her and Yor went to go collect pine cones in the woods instead. (Yuri wanted to join but Yor said 'no no! You two have fun!' and now he's trapped.)
