Oh no, no, not siblings... [ Yuri bats the thought away like smoke. ] I'd sooner claim to be your husband than your twin, but it'd be difficult. A cousin, on the other hand — much more manageable.
[ There are things he'd need to know and understand about Shez, the more intimate a (fake) relationship was, in order to be remotely convincing... Not that he'd actually go through with such a ruse. He doesn't mind tossing out the idea in jest, however. ]
I'd prefer to think we'll never have to find out the rest.
[ Mismatched memories between them and those who come from a five-year war provides enough complications as it stands. Where Byleth had to contend with some other version of him being a beloved teacher, spending months alone in remembering something else, Claude and Dimitri had never known Shez at all.

...But that sounds more like the guy I know.
[ Despondency, or what seemed like it to Yuri, didn't suit Shez. He doesn't think it suits either of his friends from home, for that matter. They don't deserve it, what's more. ]
