Geez, no wonder it's ruled by a guy who wants everybody to be depressed. It's like right there on the tin.
[WHY WOULD YOU LIVE IN A PLACE WITH A NAME LIKE THAT... Yusuke does not understand. Then again, he also doesn't understand a lot of things about his own world, so uh... he's just gonna do what he does when he's confronted with weird shit back home and refuse to think about it too much.]
... anyway, I get it. I know a guy whose favorite activities usually involve stabbing the shit out of people. Kinda creeps other people out, for obvious reasons, but that doesn't change the fact that he's one of my closest friends. If anybody messed with him, I'd make 'em wish they'd never been born.
[Granted, he still thinks this "Lucy" guy sounds like a total tool, but objectively speaking, it'd be a little hypocritical for him to judge Jimmy for giving a damn about somebody who likes to watch people suffer when he himself is good friends with a small murderous fire demon who enjoys the smell of rotting flesh. Of course, he'd probably put his foot up Hiei's ass if he started torturing people on a mass scale or something, but...
... look, the point is, it sounds like this person's relationship with the leader of his home is complicated. And while Yusuke personally doesn't like the sound of him at all, he's friends with enough deeply flawed people to know that you can't just stop caring about somebody just because you know they're a little, ah... strange. It's not that easy. Besides, does it really matter what he thinks about Jimmy giving a shit about Lucy? He knows he isn't particularly interested in what people think about his friendship with Hiei, so he's leaning towards "not really".
So he lets it go, and steers the conversation towards a slightly different topic.]
So it sounds to me like you and everyone else in Miseryville make the best with what you've got. So why're you so worried about people thinking it sounds like Hell? What, you think they're judging you or something?
