[He never quite imagined that his misunderstanding about their relationship would lead to something like this, but Scott finds himself listening, eyes set on his tablet as he takes Yukina's words in. Right, if they're twins and he's the only fire demon in a society of ice demons, Scott can't imagine that'd be easy. Of course he'd be rejected, even if it's shitty as hell.
It explains a lot about Hiei's attitude.]
I doubt he hates you. Maybe the other ice maidens that rejected him, but not you.
I hope so because I don't want him to feel like he's alone.
[Despite how different they were, they still underwent the same ordeal. He was casted aside and left to die. She was treated poorly in her village regardless of having the same powers as the rest of the koormine. She never asked for Hiei or herself to be treated this badly.]
I want him to realize that we don't have anyone else but each other.
[Yukina left her village at some point, so maybe she's not exactly happy with the other ice maidens there. They did mistreat Hiei, it'd be understandable.]
[There was silence on her end. She didn't want to admit that her brother was being a jerk. Her only family member left was purposely avoiding the topic and every time she wanted to bring it up, he seemed to dodge it or talk about something else.
And yet, despite how selfish she wanted her brother to admit they were siblings, she had to respect his wishes. She had to respect his boundaries.]

Have you told him that before?
no subject
[And yet, despite that, she couldn't deny that there was a sense of frustration.]
no subject
[Again, it would be a little different if they hated each other or he was doing this to protect her or whatever, but there's no reason for it here.]

...I suppose so. I don't have a choice.
no subject
[His response is a little more sharp, maybe blunt, but he's trying still. He isn't going to force this, he can't, but he'll push a little more.]
He at least should tell you why he's being like this.
no subject
[Especially when she just wants to respect his boundaries too!!]
no subject
[Is he being a little dismissive about Hiei's feelings? Or does he think that he'll actually be fine and handle it? Yes.]
Besides, he's upsetting you and I'm sure Hiei would want to fix that.
no subject
[She said with a sigh.]
I just....can't understand why.
no subject
[She's definitely too nice, isn't she? Scott holds back a sigh, before trying once more.]
Just bring it up, at least once.
no subject
[After all, if she didn't, he (and Kurama) would be bothering her nonstop about it!!]
....I'll let you know how it goes.
