He replied, resting a hand on her head as he laughed at her words. Yes, Yuri did enjoy making things difficult for those he cared about. It wasn't on purpose. He was just a bit more complicated to deal with than many other people. Yuri always liked the blunt honesty about Yuffie. She was always straight forward and he never had to dance around her just to get answers. Even if they had a few rough patches, he was grateful to her as well. She made things more relaxing for him from time to time and reminded him there were still good people in the world.

"Nah, I'm not forcing anything on her. None of us expected it since it was rather quick. He died in pain, but he sure went out with a bang. She's probably taking it a lot harder than Brave Vesperia is. We all knew that it was only a matter of time. It was unfortunate that it was soon. He left us with valuable information though."

He replied giving a shrug. However, despite all that, he didn't want anything to happen to Rukia and it showed in his tone. His mood changed some when Yuffie asked how he really was. Well, he certainly didn't show it in his face, but he wasn't as over it as he seemed to be.

"Don't worry about it."
