I thought I'd try to write something in Yuki's POV as a sort of practice for roleplaying (I've been temping him over at winglica). This piece bothers me some, but, well, I tried.

2. Hate
-
Yuki hates Kyou because he thinks Kyou is utterly stupid.
If the idiot would only look at the things right in front of him, then maybe they wouldn't waste so much time arguing about frivolous matters. But nooooo…. He insists on being all broody and angry and disagreeable just becauseof a stupid incident between the Cat and Rat which probably took place a gazillion years ago.
'If Tohru was the Rat, Baka Neko, would you hate her too?'
He thinks to ask this sometimes, but he holds back because it is only a stupidity that he himself will cause and nothing good will probably come of it. Kyou is much too stupid to give him a serious answer anyway. Just as his basis for hating Yuki is shallow, so is he.
And Yuki hates him most of all because of that.
Because of his shallowness, because of his blindness, because of his UTTER STUPIDITY… he needs her more. In some twisted act of fate, he needs her, but he refuses to believe it – just as he refuses to see the things right in front of him.
That is why Kyou is stupid. And Yuki hates him.
