[ Yuri jolts at the sudden change, staring owlishly for a beat before he can collect himself. It shouldn't startle him, he reasons, but Shez caught him off guard in the moment. He'd been so occupied with processing the words themselves... ]
Oh, I think I could come up with weirder descriptions, best not challenge me.
[ He says it casually with a flap of a hand, if only to smooth his composure back out. Despite the words, Yuri does take this seriously. After all, Shez is confiding in him here, which surely isn't easy. Compared to a fair few people in this world they've wound up in, Yuri has no unusual standout conditions, save that he might be immortal. And that was something he and Seteth could only speculate on.
Regardless, he's seen some damn strange things in his tenure in this place. Maybe for that reason, it's easier to accept something like Shez having had a roommate in his own body. It sounds as though he may not know the how or why of it, but— ]
So it must have been Arval taking the reins that one time, I take it... [ Funny that he'd mentioned cycles, given the nature of the world they find themselves in now, but Yuri sets that aside for another time. ] Hell of a thing, to not have a say in what your own body's doing.
[ Yuri feels it safe to assume that was the case. Shez wouldn't have turned on Byleth — on any of them — that way. That's what he believes. And in his own, rather different way, he understands not having a say. The circumstances were vastly different, but he sympathizes all the same. ]
...But you're using past tense, so are they gone now?
