She will be like a lioness protecting her son from any threat
One day you woke up and they are practically confirming that Timebomb is canon
nemesisadraste: Emotions aren’t rationnal. Even when they have to devirtualise themself but “killing” each other (unless is for saving someone from the virtual sea) they have to plan it out to fell good about it.
I know. I was more poking fun at the fact that Ulrich and Yumi get so caught up in things here they seem to forget the other will be fine haha. Or they seem to care so much it doesn’t matter that the other will be fine. There are some episodes they react with reason, like in Saint Valentine’s Day when Yumi slips through Ulrich’s grasp and they’re not sure if Jeremie’s going to devirtualize her before she hits the digital sea, or in Franz Hopper, when XANA bugs up the program so devirtualization = death and Ulrich gets hit and both Yumi and Odd cry out because they don’t know that Jeremie fixed the program in time. But in Guided Missiles and Kadic Bombshell there’s no ‘serious’ reason for it.
In the earlier episodes, Ulrich and Yumi don’t react at all to seeing the other non-lethally devirtualized. It’s near the end of season 2 into season 3 that Ulrich starts showing Yumi’s general devirtualization bothers him, like in The Key. He’s holding Yumi’s hand as they’re both hanging off a ledge, and when she’s devirtualized he actually reaches for her hand as it disappears (and her fingers seem to reach for him too). Then his hand curls into a tight fist.
In Straight to Heart, Yumi’s devirtualized, and Ulrich turns and shouts her name, and Odd has to scold him because Yumi’s virtual death is distracting Ulrich that much.
“Forget it! Concentrate on our monster friends!”
In William Returns, Yumi cries Ulrich’s name after he’s blown up by a mine (that sounds really violent written out jfc). I hate to keep referencing Ulrich, but he’s the one who shows it bothers him the most, like in Opening Act, William takes Yumi out and Ulrich growls, “If you’re trying to get a date with Yumi, I’m not so sure that’s the right way.” Or in Distant Memory, similar to The Key, Ulrich immediately notices Yumi’s been devirtualized, and he glances back, glaring.
Then in Guided Missiles and Kadic Bombshell you’ve got the shouted “No!” from Ulrich and Yumi respectively when they see William ‘kill’ the other.

“Maybe friendship was only a way to escape. We know that our love will destroy us if we take the next step in the middle of the battle. I couldn’t count all the things we did, all the battles we fought side by side, all the times we wanted to say the other the truth. But I can’t risk this, you, because I need you too.”
