Talk:Yui Komori/@comment-77.202.50.13-20141028222809

I was talking about this on twitter this morning, but I think a lot of people forget that the only reason Yui got the chance to even MAKE an impression was because 1) Karl told them not to kill her and 2) She has Cordelia’s blood. However even if both 1 and 2 played a good part in keeping her alive, they still wouldn’t have been enough if Yui didn’t have her own merits - which are the sense and tact to reign in her words and pick/choose her battles, look at her options and determine what to do and eventually lead them to see her more than just a one time meal (or in Laito’s case ‘interested’ in ‘her’ as more than…spoilers to want to spoilers.) Why? Because even if Karl ordered them too, it’s not like aside from Reiji, the other brother cares enough about their father/respect him enough to 100% follow him (and heck, even Reiji himself tries to strangle Yui at one point in his route) so 1 isn’t 100% foolproof and 2… well, as we know from the game, 2 comes with that little catch of the potential of having Cordelia take over completely. Not to mention that getting Cordelia to awaken only comes from having the change to spend a lot of time in the guys’ presence which, again, required having the tact to know how to stay alive. Also, from Laito’s route we know that Yui isn’t the first girl to become a sacrificial bride sent to this family and considering how long these boys are probably alive (canon already confirmed the age listed isn’t their real age) do you think there wouldn’t have been a ~*speaks my mind*~ type of girl at one point? And from that same route, she also made many attempts to try to save herself from that mansion after making it seem like she was following their whims/appearing docile, plus in Shu’s route when asked why she never tried to run away again it’s because she knew she wouldn’t be able to make it. And really by the time she starts being stockholmed into loving the brothers, she doesn’t want to. Yui isn’t dumb, she’s very realistic in determining the rate of her survival.
