IC Canon Sharing Meme

So you know those wonderful bits of canon that you'd love to see other characters react to, but you can't, either because your character doesn't remember, doesn't know, or would never talk about it? Time to fix that.

Directions:

1. Post up bits (videos, text, etc.) from your character's canons! Happy, silly, heartbreaking, terrifying. Anything goes!
2. Everyone can now see it
3. Thread out reactions!
4. Have fun! Seriously this meme is more self-indulgent threading out things that may never get to happen in-game than anything, just have a ball.

Yuuya Sakaki (Pick one or mix-n-match. Or y'know, whatever you wanna do.)

[camparistar]

Most of this is blatantly stolen from Wikipedia

[A]
He idolized and loved his father very much and wishes to become an entertainer like him one day. After his father disappeared during an important match, Yuuya was left heartbroken and traumatized by the event because his beloved father was labeled as a "coward". As a result, Yuuya was severely bullied for several years by his father's detractors, with only a few people, such as Gongenzaka or Yuzu Hiiragi, sticking up for him.

As Yoko Sakaki (his mother) had stated, Yuuya acts like a fool merely to beat people for insulting him about his father disappearing.... Because his father was so famous, his friends and other people seems to have high expectations of Yuya to live up to his father's reputation while simultaneously quick to bring up Yusho's "cowardice" or scold him for his clownish actions.

[B]
Yuuya has shown to have a good deal less self confidence than the protagonists in the previous series. As such, when he finds himself cornered, or something happens that breaks his confidence, he tends to pull his goggles down so nobody can see his eyes. At times like these, he ends up recalling lessons from his father, or relies on support from his friends or mother to regain his confidence and continue the Duel.

Yuuya has a habit of putting his goggles over his eyes when he is either upset or embarrassed, something he did since he was young.... Yuya can get depressed very easily from matters such as witnessing his friends being sent to the forced labor of City to conflict as simple as Crow Hogan telling him that he no longer wants to be his friend. Yuya's depression is very prominent in the Synchro Dimension season.

[C]
Yuya is able to enter the state of Berserk Mode, an involuntary ability that activates when he is sufficiently angered, catalyzed by either the influence of the Four Dimension Dragons or his Dimensional Counterparts. This causes him to enter a state of rage that drives him to win the Duel, no matter what it takes, and heightens his concentration to the point that he blocks out all sounds except for his opponent's voice.[14] When in this state his own voice becomes deeper and noticeably more menacing.

The first time he entered Berserk Mode, Yuya was collected and cold, speaking no more than necessary. However, when witnessing Yuto's memories of Duel Academy's attack on the Xyz Dimension and seeing the Knight of Duels being turned into cards by the Obelisk Force in front of him, Yuto's hatred towards the Fusion Dimension bleeds into Yuya, making him even more aggressive and ruthless. This is worsened when the darkness inside him consumed him, making him desire to harm his enemies.

After accidentally absorbing Yuto's soul and merging with him, Yuto's memories begin to spill over, allowing him to see fragments of his counterpart's past. When triggered, the shock and trauma that comes with them can cause him to go berserk and become influenced by Yuto's own hatred, which makes him vulnerable to the control of an unknown darkness that slowly tries to consume both of their souls.

Bonus!
He cries a lot, too, especially at the point I took him from.
