[A] The First Few Hours

Yukari happened to be wandering around when the Cave divided. Seeing the wall shoot up to separate both sides makes the hair stand up on the back of his neck and he instantly reaches for his phone. Desperately he tries to call and text, but there's nothing. The reception seems to be completely out.

Without a moment's hesitation, he starts searching all around Side A, looking for someone at a very brisk pace. He's trying to keep his face stern as he tells himself not to worry, but it might glimmer into the true panic he feels from time to time as he continues to search.

When the search seems to be fruitless, he scrambles back to the wall. Looking for any weaknesses along it. And when that also fails, he unsheathes his sword and starts attacking the wall. He slashes away at it, coursing Green Electricity against it from time to time until he wears himself down and drops to his knees beside the wall.

Sweat drips from his brow as he grips at the wall with a hand. Why? Good God... "Why!?" he yells out, clenching his hand into a fist and hitting the wall, as if it would do something his blade couldn't. He grits his teeth painfully as he turns his back to the wall, sliding completely down into a seated position as he covers his face with a hand, slumping forward. This just can't be. No...

His breaths are shallow and rapid, gripping his hand against his face as he begins to panic.

[B] After the first day.

After Fear's message across the Network was received, he jumped right into the fray. If fear and combat was needed, he'll certainly go out of his way to achieve that. He walks around town with a new sense of determination. His face is stern and he'll approach anyone on sight, immediately set to battle with them, whether they're armed or not.

Upon seeing you, he instantly draws his sword and swings out without hesitation. He's not speaking nor taunting, nor does he look amused as he typically would. The goal is to get that wall down, and you're now the next target.

[C] Throughout 3/29 to 4/09

Yukari hasn't allowed himself to sleep since the Wall shot up and divided the Cave. He's been pushing himself far harder than he ever typically would. He looks nothing short of exhausted as he continues to walk around Side A, looking for anyone to antagonise to give Fear strength to tear down that damned wall. But with the mists rolling around, there has been a higher, and more dangerous, selection of monsters that are ready to pounde on anyone, and as one of those patches drift around him, a Varren appears and instantly attacks him.

Yukari dodges, if only barely, with his exhaustion overtaking his graceful skills. He tries to swing out his sword against it, but it keeps charging attack after attack at him, and it's wearing him down quickly. After attempting to counter a few more blows with his blade, Yukari's strength finally gives out and he collapses to his knees. He grips his sword and grits his teeth, certain that death will come and he can only hope it's swift.

[D] Alternative to C

Yukari hasn't been sleeping properly by any stretch of the imagination. He can't allow himself to. He's so desperate to get that wall down. On a break he might find himself beginning to doze off, but he'll quickly jerk himself out of it and continue on his way to prey on anyone he finds.

That's not to say he's immune to the other effects his psyche is taking out on him. In all of his desperation, panic, and not being able to see or talk to Curufin, it's breaking him apart from the inside, and the lack of sleep is assuredly only making that worse. Mix that in with pushing himself against man and monster alike and it's taken a thorough toll on his system.

When the stress becomes unbearable, and he wonders if this wall will ever get torn down, he collapses to his knees on the ground, burying his face in his hand. After a few moments, he finally lets out a pained sob. The worry overwhelms him - will he ever get to be by Curufin's side again? Will that wall ever actually come down? Does his fighting mean anything at all? None of his messages seemed to be getting through. Was Curufin even alive? Or had he left this world through the door without Yukari being able to know? This isn't fair, being forced to keep guessing. It's all starting to feel so hopeless.
