[ He'll have to challenge Shez to a race sometime. Yuri may train largely alone, but it doesn't stop him from exercising his speed any. It's one of several strengths he can continue to work on by himself. New tactics, he's come to think, are another matter...but one he reserves for later.
For now, he looks out to the sea and releases a soft breath. ]
...You know I've had a rough life, yeah? What gives me strength is the same thing that always has, and it's my people. Wanting to better their lives, to see them safe and happy. That started with my mother.
[ Even now, he wants for her safety and happiness. He always will. ]
I've got you and Byleth here, and I'll see us home, whatever that requires of me.
[ It's nothing revelatory when it comes to Yuri, but it's more forthright than he usually allows himself to be. Shez is as much about others as he is, in his own way. Seeing him around camp had told Yuri as much, back home. ]
So long as you've got motivation, you can keep moving forward.
