make shifting fun for you ♡

do you ever find yourself spiralling after every 'failed' shifting attempt? do you stress whenever you do your shifting method? or worry about what step is coming next, or worry whether you will shift? find yourself doubting your abilities?

shifting is supposed to be fun.

and this does not sound fun.

the number one thing i have been making sure to do when shifting, is to prioritise my comfortability and enjoyability when trying to shift.

i always try and make the process as enjoyable and comfortable as much as i can for myself.

shifting is supposed to be fun, right? it's exciting! shifting should be fun and enjoyable- heck, you're going to experience a whole other reality! a whole other life, a whole other self, experiencing your wildest dreams and fantasies!

how are you going to expect yourself to shift if you're still stressing over the process of shifting?

find or make a shifting method/process that'll make YOU enjoy shifting, and keep you motivated!

do things that you LOVE doing that will make YOU feel motivated to shift/more connected to your dr!

shifting should not feel like a chore. going to shift should not drain you. shifting should not be boring.

it should be a fun and exciting experience!

don't worry about what method is the most popular or most effective or easiest to the general community. ignore the trending shifting methods, subliminals, or guided meditations.

everyone has their own personal journey with shifting and there is no right or wrong way to shift.

focus on yourself first. work out what you like doing the most/what you enjoy doing the most, what your strengths and weaknesses are, and then work from there to find a method/process that works for you!

for example, whenever i shift, i always ensure that during my method, i:

a ) am feeling good! that i'm feeling excited, happy, good, comfortable and am enjoying the ride! i do not force myself to shift if i feel drained, tired, bored, or i feel that i am forcing myself to shift (you can still shift when feeling these things btw! but for me, i don't like to because personally i don't get good results when i do. however, remember that this is just a me thing!)

b ) that whatever method or steps i'm doing to shift makes me feel confident and assured that I WILL SHIFT. by the 'end' or at some point of my 'method' i truly feel that i am going to shift and i can shift, and this whole thing isn't just me 'attempting' or 'trying' to shift.

you love imagining random scenarios of your desired reality, but worried it's not 'proper visualisation' and you're just daydreaming or imagining? who cares! imagination IS reality and if it makes you feel closer to your dr, do it!

you hate visualising and you just want to say affirmations over and over again because that's what you're the most comfortable with and makes you feel confident, despite what other people tell you?

do it.

in my experience, all the times where i've just done whatever i feel like and makes me feel like i'm having the most fun, i end up feeling the most confident i ever will be in my shifting abilities! it's because when you're doing things you enjoy/love, naturally you'll shift to have a more positive and happier mindset!

it also helps me to stress less about the 'process' of shifting and rather, focus on the destination and anticipation of my desired reality!

however, this is just a small tip from me! please take this with a grain of salt 🌷

and if you've made it to the end, just know that YOU WILL SHIFT!

G.I.W headcanons:

No one in Amity Park respects or trusts the GIW.

Civilians hate the GIW because they’re expensive, destructive and believe that they’re above the law and more qualified than anyone else.

For example, when it comes to payment and property damage.

Phantom and the Red Huntress work for free and don’t usually cause much property damage and what does get damaged can easily be covered by Amity Park exclusive “ghost insurance”.

The Fentons are loud and can be destructive sometimes, but they’re efficient, work at a very low price and are fully willing to pay for any damage not covered by ghost insurance. Plus they sell anti-ghost equipment at a low price and are more than willing to give tips on what to do if you’re the victim of an attack.

Ghost hunters from out of town are a mixed bag, because most aren’t equipped with actual equipment, instead bringing things made to communicate with the ghost and/or ward it off for some time (Spirit boxes to translate ghost speech, incenses and rituals to interact with them). Plus most out of town “ghost hunters” don’t even believe in ghosts and are usually just using the job as a way of conning money out of superstitious people. Prices can also range wildly. But those that take the job seriously can still be useful if an area is currently being haunted because they can still identify what exactly is haunting it and what you should do.

if your house contains a spirit the out of town ghost hunter could get it to identify itself or leave if it’s a weaker ghost, otherwise call the Fentons.

If it’s a ghost animal, treat it differently than a sentient ghost. Ghost animals are usually less dangerous than a sentient ghost but it’s still a wild animal. They can be dealt with easily and cheaply using incenses and Fenton gadgets that’ll make it leave the area or return to the zone. If it’s a large and/or dangerous creature, call the Fentons and tell them it’s a animalistic ghost.

If it’s a natural portal don’t bother calling the Fentons because natural portals cannot be closed or contained, don’t worry about it being that dangerous though, because natural portals are one way trips from the ghost zone to earth and can’t be seen or crossed from the human side unless you’re a full ghost. Just set up some incenses and charms so any ghosts that come though leave your house quickly or at least act respectfully while they’re here.

If it’s a collapsed portal, call the Fentons immediately and inform them of the situation. Natural portals that have collapsed may not be able to bring ghosts to the human realm, but for about a week after the full collapse, the area the portal occupied will produce high energy ectoplasm (H.E.E) that is extremely toxic and gives off an an astronomical amount of ectoplasmic radiation. Being in close proximity for too long can cause lasting health effects including ecto-acne. H.E.E such a powerful material that it’s used to power the Fenton portal. The Fentons are the most qualified people in Amity when it comes to dealing with the stuff. The GIW isn’t even allowed to do anything in this situation by both Amity Park and federal law. Just let the Fentons and possibly a hazardous material removal team deal with the stuff and stay with a friend or in a hotel for a day or two until they declare your house safe.

The GIW don’t care about public or private property and are loud, destructive and once again, believe that they are above the law and common decency. They also preform “mandatory sweeps” around the entire block of wherever they’re called in, raiding houses that they believe to have ghosts inside, ripping up lawns and damaging roads with their massive trucks and destroying public property either by accident or because a ghost was spotted nearby. They will also refuse to pay for any damages done and will secretly charge whoever called them with prices in the hundreds despite the fact that the propaganda posters advertising the GIW never mention a price.

Law enforcement in Amity hates the GIW because they get in the way of them trying to do their jobs, especially if someone has died. Multiple reports detail the GIW stepping in during cases involving sudden disappearances or murders and informing officers that the case is government business before removing all traces of said case’s existence. Multiple high ranking members of the GIW have been asked about this sort of thing and every single one of them claims that these cases “involved or resulted in the creation of an ecto-entity” making the case GIW business. It’s very obvious that the GIW uses these cases to locate and identify recently formed ghosts, but so far, no ghost related to a recent disappearance or murder has appeared and the GIWs meddling makes it impossible for actual law enforcement to figure out the causes of these crimes, meaning that murders and unexplained disappearances go unsolved.

The GIW also gives itself the authority to imprison and interrogate anyone that is believed to be involved with ghosts. In fact, for a while, the GIW made multiple attempts to arrest the Fentons and other ghost hunters because they fit this description. Some amendments were added to the anti-ecto law to exclude ghost hunters and ectobiologists (someone who studies ghosts for scientific purposes) to prevent this. This doesn’t mean they won’t try to push the Fentons and other ghost hunters around however.

The Fentons hate the GIW for of many, many reasons included but not limited to direct plagiarism of their scientific essays, multiple attempts to arrest them over tiny things that the GIW do not regulate and mass plagiarism of their gadgets and weapons.

The Fentons also hate how the GIW treats scientific research and the ghost zone itself.

The Fentons keep all of their research in the ops center and are more than happy to provide it if asked and actively want more people to be educated about ghosts. Their research is always kept up to date, and everything is meticulously covered. The Fentons want ectobiology to eventually be a subject that could be taught in a high school or college, mostly since when they were in college, their research was the first of its kind, often with nothing to go off of in terms of where to start or what to do and they ended up almost killing Vlad as a result.

Also, despite the “all ghosts are ectoplasmic copies of dead people and therefore are not and were never real people” stance, the Fentons are extremely against the idea of weaponizing ghosts and ectoplasm. You can’t control a ghost to do your bidding (freakshow is an exception, his staff was literally built by the ghost king and is therefore an outlier), You can’t create an ectoplasmic atom bomb (they tested if this was possible when they built the portal, you genuinely can’t) and any weapon that uses ectoplasm and works on human beings would be classified as either chemical warfare or biological warfare. They absolutely hate the idea of people using their research to wage wars.

The GIW on the other hand, keep all research a heavily kept secret and anything that is released or leaked is either outdated, details failed attempts at weaponization or is redacted to the point of absurdity.

The Fentons also disapprove of attempts to wage wars against, colonize, or damage large parts of the ghost zone. They understand that once the ghost enters the zone it has entered its natural habitat and home. Expeditions into the zone should not be used to capture or harm ghosts unless absolutely necessary. In the human realm they are entering our world with an actual motive (most ghosts need to be in the human realm to fulfill their obsessions), in the ghost zone you are invading their territory with no reason whatsoever, and due to the territorial nature of ghosts, showing too much hostility could trigger another Walker or even Pariah Dark level invasion. The Fenton’s may hate ghosts with every fibre of their being and want them destroyed, but they’re not idiots and they view what the GIW does as “swinging blindfolded at a hornet nest”.

The anti-ecto act details an ecto-entity as “An organism that relies on and/or creates ectoplasm and/or ectoplasmic radiation.” While ghosts, half-ghosts and plants native to the ghost zone fall under this jurisdiction, ghost portals, ectocontaminated objects, and devices powered by or made of ectoplasm don’t fit these requirements (mostly the “organism” part) and thus the GIW isn’t allowed to step in if it involves those things (For example, The GIW are not allowed to kick you out of your home and declare it a contaminated area if it contains a natural portal). The GIW likes to try and find loopholes around this.

Ectocontaminated creatures like Vlad and Danny in human form and anyone that’s been in an ectoplasm related accident do have ectoplasm as a permanent part of their bodies due to ectoplasm fusing with the cells in their bodies, but are actively excluded from the anti-ecto act because they’re still human beings, they’ve just got a tiny bit of ectoplasm in their bodies that cannot be removed. The GIW still treats ectocontaminated people like human beings because they’re forced to, but if a ghost is reported near where a person that’s been ectocontaminated lives, there’s a good chance they’ll bring that person into custody for “possible association with ecto-entities”. They do a similar thing to homeless people that are spotted near reported ghost locations.

Bringing people into custody for “possible association with ecto-entities” is basically the GIWs calling card, because “possible association with ecto-entities” is such a vague and difficult to disprove statement that just about anyone in all of Amity Park can fit that description and the GIW knows this. Anyone can and will be taken in from people that have witnessed a ghost fight to people that were briefly overshadowed to amateur ghost hunters and even to random people that have nothing to do with ghosts. Being taken in for “possible association with ecto-entities” is a popular meme around Amity Park, usually as a counterpart for sending someone to the gulag or Brazil.

The GIW may be partially government funded, but it has basically no governmental supervision and a good chunk of the GIW is self funded. They are extremely corrupt, breaking the anti-ecto laws amendments, several federal laws and most of the boundaries placed by the higher parts of the government whenever they deem appropriate. They aren’t even allowed to do half the things they do in Amity Park but get away with it because no one in Amity has the balls to stand up against them and even if they do, the government basically doesn’t care what some small government agency is doing in one tiny town in Illinois as long as they’re doing what they were sent there to do (research ghosts).

The GIW technically aren’t even supposed to be fighting ghosts. They were founded with the intention of RESEARCHING ghosts as nonviolently as possible. It’s the Ghost INVESTIGATION Ward, not the Ghost DESTRUCTION Ward. Both the federal government and the GIW themselves ignore this.

The extremely wealthy are usually able to bribe the GIW into leaving them or certain areas of Amity Park alone and/or make them turn a blind eye to ghostly activity. People that do this include (in descending order):

Vlad and all of his companies.

Axion Labs.

A small family in the extremely high class area of Amity known as the Mclains.

Most large companies that just want the GIW out of their way.

The Mansons on rare occasions.

Freakshow and circus gothica. Not anymore.

Some others.

For the first few months of the GIW being in Amity Park, they were completely unregulated with a massive budget and literally did whatever they wanted just by saying it was “government business”. They didn’t even need to play the “possible association with ecto-entities” card, because they’d just take anyone in for no reason other than “government business”.

That was, until they got sued.

To make a very long story short, the Fentons sued the GIW for plagiarizing their research, plagiarizing their weapons and selling them as their own and the multiple attempts the GIW made at arresting them over “direct association with ecto-entities” (ie: all of their research) “direct summoning of ecto-entities” (ie: the portal) and “harbouring ecto-entities” (ie: having an ectocontaminated person (ie: Danny) living with them). Most of the GIWs unregulated actions in Amity were brought up and the GIW were found guilty of scientific misconduct, plagiarism, abuse of power, dozens of accounts of unlawful arrest, embezzlement, discrimination of all kinds and many other crimes.

In the end the GIW was completely restructured, received several massive cuts to its budget and had multiple restrictions put on to try and regulate them, the anti-ecto law had multiple amendments added to make sure that it only effects ghosts and the GIW was banned from ever using Fenton research, gadgets, weaponry and basically everything with the word Fenton on it. This ban includes the creation of ghost portals.

Eventually the GIW was mostly unregulated again but even now, they mostly won’t mess with the Fentons or their research, because the Fentons are some of the only people with the courage needed to stand up to them and the evidence needed to put the GIW in hot water, and if the GIW end up with another incident like the “Fenton vs Ghost Investigation Ward lawsuit” they could all be in serious trouble.

The GIW has a list of “high value targets” that are either extremely dangerous, have evaded capture for a very long time or both. The list (in descending order of importance) includes:

Spectra (extremely dangerous and impossible to capture, ATTACK ON SIGHT)

Technus (messes with all of their equipment, has managed to delete thousands of documents of research and has released a large amount of ghosts from their facilities)

Phantom (difficult to capture, plus most of the GIW is still salty about not being able to collect that bounty)

Johnny 13 (a whole bunch of factors make him extremely difficult to capture)

Youngblood (impossible for anyone except children to see him and his guardian is extremely protective and dangerous)

Ember Mclain (can appear extremely human and is therefore extremely difficult to spot, along with having the ability to hypnotize agents into letting her go. Also constant requests and a couple million dollars from the living Mclains state that if captured, she is to be brought to them instead of to a GIW facility)

All ghosts have some level of respect for Phantom. Weaker ghosts view the Red Huntress as a genuine threat that should be taken seriously, while stronger ghosts view her as a ghost hunter thats far out of her league but still shouldn’t be underestimated. All ghosts view the Fentons as serious threats that are not to be messed with, but also won’t hesitate to fight them if it means saving another ghost that’s been captured. Every single ghost, with exceptions made for ghosts like Spectra, Aragon, The Fright Knight and the ancients, shit themselves at the mere mention of the GIW. If you get captured by them, it’s over. No hope of destabilizing and reforming in your lair because the GIW will use devices to keep you stable as they experiment on you. And they WILL experiment on you. Dissections, Vivisections (it counts as a vivisection if the ghost is conscious during the process), imprisonment in cells that Walker would consider crimes against humanity and just straight up, cold blooded torture of all kinds. The few things anyone, human or ghost, knows about what goes on behind the closed doors of a GIW facility mostly comes from ghosts that managed to destabilize themselves and reform in their lairs, and most of the ghosts that come back from a GIW facility come back with massive changes to their forms that they can’t remove and will often refuse to enter the human realm ever again, obsession be dammed.

Before trying to shift make sure to remind yourself that what you're doing is a real attempt. It's easy to fall into going though the motions. Every. Single. Attempt. Poses are real feasible shot at shifting. There is a genuine possibility of you shifting every single time.

Canon Yuu

~~~

I saw a post about Yuu and canon facts about them so I went through all the character voice lines and picked out all the other facts I could find. Some will be a repeat of what’s mentioned in the original post, which you’ll find here. I may update it as the game and manga progress. Some voice lines aren’t translated or in the official wiki yet so I rely on other sources for those.

I hyper fixated HARD on this.

Last Update: 3.17.2024 | recently added info will be bolded

Yuusona Bingo

You have no idea how happy you’re all making me <3333

~~~

Yuu likes initiating physical contact. They’ve poked at Riddle and Leona’s tsum a lot. They’ve also poked at Leona, Ortho, Kalim (tickling him in the process), Jack’s sides, Deuce (twice), Floyd, and Epel. Yuu tugged on Riddle’s sleeve during a lab class, Leona while camping, Kalim’s ceremonial robes headdress, Trey’s Halloween veil, Sebek’s sleeve (much to his dismay), and Vil. They’ve pulled at Jack’s ceremonial robes and Ace’s arm. Vil teases Yuu in a voice line saying that he can’t fault their overwhelming desire to touch him given his alluring beauty. They touch Malleus and he teases that if they continue to do so, Sebek would throw a fit. Malleus welcomes Yuu to touch his horns. Yuu also touches him without shrinking in fear. They wanted to touch/hold Jamil’s gala couture corsage, he also asks if touching is customary where Yuu is from. Yuu has almost touched Ortho’s heat exhaust and even managed to tickle him. Yuu kept clinging to Lilia during lab class in hopes he’d tutor them. Floyd called Yuu a barnacle which may suggest they kept clinging to him. They kept touching Jack’s Halloween costume which made him worry the shells would fall off. They pet Cater’s tsum WHILE looking at him, which gave Cater mixed signals. Deuce complained once how they were getting handsy with him. They’ve tickled Floyd—who promised to get them back. They played with Floyd’s tsum. They straightened Epel’s ribbon (Ghost Bride) without warning, Silver’s horned hat during Halloween, and kept flipping open Riddle’s jacket in his Suitor Suit. They scratched under Grim’s chin without asking.

Yuu attends every character’ birthday celebration and always seems to have a good time.

Yuu has a knack for dancing.

Yuu has the habit of staring at other people, just about every character calls them out on it.

Yuu had difficulty with basic lab textbook questions, which may be expected since they’re not from Twisted Wonderland.

Yuu wears makeup, at least to ceremonies.

Yuu thinks the amount of traditional events NRC has is unusual.

Yuu asks for help with studying and homework from their friends—at least the better educated ones.

Yuu appears to be someone who gets anxious at ceremonies. Trey had to tell them to stand still and stay quiet, implying they get fidgety and restless. Ruggie teased Yuu about how they squirmed in preparation for a ceremony. He was also rushed by Yuu who feared they wouldn’t make it to the ceremony in time. Jamil had to guide Yuu in taking deep breaths when they were anxious, he also points out they were fidgety.

Many characters have commented on Yuu’s diligence.

Based on dialogue, Yuu is quick to pass snarky/sarcastic responses.

Yuu seemed to adapt to Twisted Wonderland fairly quickly. When they saw Jack for the first time, they can make a comment about how he has dog ears and a tail in a seemingly (distant?) tone. They never pointed out or questioned Malleus’ horns. Reminder they freaked out when they first saw Grim, before any other character, so they’ve grown accustomed to the strangeness of NRC.

Yuu was once able to play with Leona’s tail. Yuu grabbed Ruggie’s tail during his birthday. They grabbed Jack’s tail, too. They tried to grab Malleus’ tail during Halloween but he wouldn't let them in fear it would send Yuu flying.

There’s a good chance Yuu tends to fall asleep in class. Jack promises to wake them up if they do, commenting that he can’t focus when someone is dozing off next to him. Trey reminds them that he won’t wake them up if they fall asleep. Ace caught Yuu dozing off once.

Yuu isn’t very good at keeping their attire in place. It’s pointed out by a handful of characters, and even in the main story. The hood of their robe was once inside out during a ceremony. The collar of their PE uniform was all wonky. Vil has even said the uniform is a bit too big and makes them look sloppy— and that their labwear was wrinkled. Trey says it looks like the school uniform is wearing them.

Yuu doesn’t really know how to behave/carry themselves in formal situations.

Yuu can either be really perceptive or really oblivious. In a voice line for Riddle’s Suitor Suit, Yuu noticed something different about him but couldn’t figure out what it was until he outwardly said he styled his hair back. But then in a voice line for Ace’s Bloom Birthday, they noticed that he angled the hat differently. (Like seriously, what is with that???)

Yuu had an awful bed-head while camping.

Yuu seemed excited about the Beanfest event. Jack says that they’re “pretty gung-ho” about it. Apparently there’s a tale similar to Beanfest where Yuu hails from. Yuu wanted to team with Azul during the event. Jamil said they were very into it. Vil complimented Yuu’s skills during Beanfest but was quick to shut down their excitement. He also comments that Yuu is surprisingly good at the event. Yuu was confronted by Rook and feigned surrender. Based on other voice lines, it seems Rook hunted Yuu at some point.

It can be interpreted that the freshmen get together at Ramshackle.

In Bloom Birthday voice lines, Yuu got many characters to show them their magic.

Yuu is serious about helping Grim become a great sorcerer.

Yuu is easy to scare, many characters got the drop on them during Halloween. You didn’t seem to get them back with much success.

A few characters comment how/if Yuu has grown used to living in Twisted Wonderland.

Not necessarily a Yuu fact, but Ramshackle gets lots of snow during the winter.

Yuu can come off as a boisterous person at times.

Yuu is not fazed by Riddle’s temper/behavior.

Yuu enjoyed the food Riddle made during the Culinary Crucible and that he might make more for them.

Yuu was energetic at Riddle’s birthday, though his precise wording was “energetic as ever”, implying Yuu is often excitable.

Yuu hid a present for Riddle somewhere in Heartslabyul and in order to find it, he had to solve the answer to a riddle.

Ace regularly invites Yuu to his basketball games.

Yuu commented on Ace’s basketball skills saying that his handling of the ball is slick.

Cater gave Yuu a ticket to the Pop Music Club’s show.

Yuu is apparently homesick, something they confide in Cater with at least twice.

During their visit to the Scalding Sands, Yuu got worn out by the crowds. Cater took them aside to sit and rest.

Cater doesn’t know what’s going through Yuu’s head.

Based on a few voice lines, Yuu is very familiar with Cater. To a point where he reminds them that he is an upperclassman that deserves respect.

For his Bloom Birthday, Deuce got a coupon to use during his birthday month and invited Yuu to use it with him—but to not tell any of the others because it was only meant for two.

Yuu asked Deuce to see his awards from track meets. Deuce was very eager to show them.

Like with Ace, Yuu cheers Deuce in at his tracks meets.

In a Glorious Masquerade line, Deuce asks Yuu to dance.

In a New Year’s line, Deuce says he set aside an item that Yuu wanted.

Ace, Deuce, and Cater are both disappointed to an extent that Yuu isn’t in Heartslabyul.

During his Bloom Birthday, Yuu made Trey a tart. It was either strawberry or chocolate or maybe both!

Yuu told Trey that science was difficult to them, so he decided to show them it could be fun.

In some of his ceremonial robe lines, Leona suggests he and Yuu ditch.

Yuu gave Leona candy during Halloween hoping it might make him happier.

Yuu is relaxed around Leona.

Yuu was very meticulous in slicing a piece of cake for Leona at his own birthday.

Yuu tried to sneak up on Leona to surprise him on his birthday, but he noticed them before they could jump out.

Yuu liked Leona’s gala couture.

Because Grim ate their food during the camp event, they went to Ruggie for spare food.

Ruggie comments on how the other campers can’t pitch a tent or start a fire, this may or may not have included Yuu.

Ruggie has comments that Yuu is a good sense of rhythm.

Ruggie extended an invitation/suggested Yuu to join the Spelldrive Club. He said that even if they’re magicless, there are many tasks a manager can do.

Azul has said Yuu has a tender disposition.

According to Azul, Yuu seems to have a good time during flight class.

Azul doesn’t believe them to have a good singing voice.

Yuu complimented the round framed glasses Azul wore during the Glorious Masquerade event.

Yuu shared some pastries with Azul in Fleur City.

Yuu thought Azul looked good in his masquerade and union birthday outfits.

Jade has teased Yuu, calling them a mischief-maker.

Jade said that Yuu is a curious one and comments on how they somehow always manage to be at the center of everything.

Jade and Yuu took a selfie together during Beanfest.

Yuu wished to climb Mount Molm during the Harveston event, but Jade told them to start with a smaller climb—saying snowy mountains were dangerous.

Yuu isn’t good at plating food. Floyd finds this very funny.

Yuu told Kalim during culinary crucible that they liked his food. But since Kalim’s meals tend to come out a little… crisp and messy, they may just be saying it so as to not hurt his feelings.

Jamil thinks(?) Yuu has an acute sense of smell as they were able to find him preparing a light snack for Kalim.

Yuu thought Jamil was being insincere when he thanked them for celebrating his birthday.

Yuu got a bunch of sauce on their face in the Scalding Sands, something Jamil subtly teased them for.

Yuu sees Jamil as a voice of reason in almost every situation.

Yuu complimented Jamil on his fairy couture which made him feel a little better.

A voice line from Jamil mentions Yuu wears a uniform to school and that it’s “nice in its own right”. This could mean that Yuu’s school uniform is old/a hand-me-down and isn’t necessarily like everyone else’s.

Yuu thinks Rook is a bit odd.

Yuu confided in Rook saying they get embarrassed when they’re sweaty.

Yuu wanted to ride on a horse with Epel during the Ghost Bride event.

Yuu got giddy when it began to snow, a detail Idia pointed out during the Harveston event.

According to Idia, Yuu is a friend to introverts and someone he can count on.

Yuu wanted to wear Idia’s suitor suit attire.

Malleus says Yuu always seems to attract a crowd, but that’s a given since they’re the main character.

In a Glorious Masquerade voice line, Malleus says something along the lines of escorting Yuu for the night and to rely on him to lead their dance.

When Malleus suspects that Fleur City will look different at night, Yuu’s eyes lit up with interest and curiosity.

Yuu found many amusing sights in Fleur City. Malleus says this before commenting “It seems wherever I may go with you, there is never a dull moments to be found.”

Malleus comments that Yuu’s dancing prowess has greatly improved during the Glorious Masquerade.

When Malleus says a plate in the Scalding Sands possesses a recently made design, Yuu tells him that it’s an antique. Either Yuu has studied Scalding Sands history before visiting or the antiques of Twisted Wonderland are similar to those in Yuu’s world.

Malleus once said, maybe sometime in Book Three, that Yuu was not as innocent as their doe-eyes would suggest.

Yuu once wanted to see Malleus dressed in his ceremonial robes, so he wore it just for them.

A line suggests that Yuu lingered around and focused on Malleus during his birthday party.

As thanks for participating in his birthday party, Malleus invited Yuu to visit about ten ruins.

Yuu wanted to hear an earnest proposal from Lilia during the Ghost Bride event.

There’s a very real possibility Lilia gave Yuu a piggyback ride during Halloween.

When Sebek chastised Grim’s gluttonous behavior, Yuu seemingly gave him a dirty look.

Sebek made too much food for himself during Camp Vargas and Yuu was staring at it with a “greedy gleam” in their eyes.

Also during the Camp Vargas event; Yuu would cover their ears when Sebek did roll call.

Yuu MAY have beaten Sebek at party games during his birthday.

Yuu had difficulty handling Harveston sleds, leading Sebek to brag about how he could do so with ease.

Silver has said Yuu worries too much about those around them.

Silver thinks Yuu has some talent with a sword.

Judging by a voice line from Professor Crewel, Yuu isn't that good academically and may be close to failing his class. He also says they and Grim are his biggest troublemakers.

On the contrary, Professor Trein says during the Glorious Masquerade that he doesn’t worry about Yuu and Grim. (I theorize the following: Crewel’s classes are based in magic, a feat Yuu doesn’t have. Therefore they’re likely to sit on the side as Grim does the lessons assigned. But knowing Grim, he causes trouble in class. Since Yuu and Grim count as one student, Crewel assumes that they’re both rowdy. Meanwhile, Yuu is able to participate in Trein’s classes, which are more traditional with studying and tests. Yuu is in tune with this method and can therefore excel, while Grim can’t as he wasn’t raised alongside humans. Crewel gets the wild half and Trein gets the responsible half.)

Yuu has the option to buy woven bands during the Glorious Masquerade event.
