Your gateway to endless inspiration
Yuri Briar - Blog Posts
Okay, I want to predict the outcome for Spy x Family chapter 72 rn before it comes out, and I'm writing it here so that, if it happens, I can come back to this and pat myself on the back for being right.
So if anyone's interested, this is what I think will (or at least, should) happen:
The bus comes to a stop with all the police officers surrounding it. Cursing for being caught, the guy tells the kids to all stay put if they want to live, then grabs Anya and Damian and brings them out of the bus.
He tells the officers that he has bombs strapped to their necks (both the son of the wealthy and high profile Desmond family and the girl who just happened to piss him off) and that he won't hesitate to set them off.
The officers lay down their weapons, seeing as they have no other choice. Anya, being the little gremlin she is, yells out that the bombs are fake. Aka, pick up the guns again and save them.
Damian and the guy are equally appalled that Anya would be stupid enough to say that and also how does she even know that??
As the police question whether or not that's true, the man grabs Anya and puts a gun to her head, saying something like "I don't know how you learned the bomb was fake, but this gun is very real." Or something to that extent.
Damian (bless his soul) probably tries to help her, but is ultimately smacked away like the loaf of bread he is.
The police, now again concerned with the turn of events, put their guns down for the second time.
The man smirks and begins to list off what he wants the cops to do if they want the kids to live when something smacks him in the head. (Idk what it would be. A rock, a shoe? Just something.)
He looks up to see a hooded figure standing on top of the bus. "Step away from the girl." He says as he points a very large gun at the man.
"Who the hell are you?" The man responds.
"Someone who doesn't like repeating orders a second time." The gun is cocked. "Now step away from her."
Anya (bless her soul as well) thinks that she should do something to help. After all, that's what Bondman would do. So, like the gremlin she is, she comes up with the most gremlin-like plan she can and bites him. Hard. Just fully chomps down on the man's fingers.
Cursing, he let's go of her in surprise. Damain quickly grabs her hand and yanks her away as the hooded figure jumps on top of him and knocks the gun out of his hand.
The police are understandably confused, but rush to stop the bus driver who attempts to make a run for it when his ally is taken down.
Now that they're apprehended, Anya tries to figure out who the hooded figure is. Was it Papa?
She reads his mind and hears this:
"I may hate Loi-Loi will all my guts and he may never be a deserving husband to someone as great as Yor, but I know she would be devastated if anything happened to her chihuahua girl."
Anya smiles, realizing that the man who came to her rescue was her uncle Yuri. She knows that he is technically her papa's enemy (and possibly her mama's too, even if he doesn't know) but he's still a good guy.
Cue Yuri noticing the look and saying something like,
"What the hell are you smiling for??"
But Anya just says something like
"Thank you mystery man! You saved Syon-boy and I from being dead."
He stiffens a little, surprised at the praise and his relief about her safety.
"You're welcome." He says.
Then we cut to the next scene.
Loid is standing in his doorway, fear and absolute shock in his expression.
"She... What?"
The officers then explain to him (for the second time) what events transpired that day.
He looks down as Yor (in tears) crushes Anya (literally crushes) in a hug, saying how she was so sorry she had to go through that and was so relieved that she was okay.
Loid is furious. Furious at the men who threatened his daughter, but more importantly, furious at the agency for not telling him what was going on. He knew they knew about it.
Unable to even look at Anya, he pushes past the cops and sprints his way all the way down to the agency. He isn't careful to be unseen. He isn't paying attention to any of his lessons and basic techniques of being a spy. His daughter almost died today. That's the only thing that matters to him right now.
He kicks down the door, to which the woman starts her whole "Good day, or rather, good evening" spiel that Loid promptly interrupts.
"You knew." He accuses, "You knew and you didn't tell me."
The woman tells him her reasoning. (He was too far away, there was no point in needlessly worrying him when he couldn't do anything, etc.)
He erupts, yelling at them that he didn't care if he was in the middle of another mission, they should've told him! She's his daughter! He should know if she's ever in danger!
"She's not really your daughter," comes the reply.
A moment of silence.
Silence as he realizes the statement is true and wrong at the same time. Not his biological daughter, sure, but she was still his. She was important.
"What about Operation Strix?" He tries to rationalize (for the sake of his protectiveness toward Anya and to prove that the agency should care about her too)
The agency tells him they have other means of getting close to the Desmonds, whether through Yor's new friendship or through another "backup" plan they had in motion. They imply that Anya is expendable. They say that the mission is more important. They say if it came to saving Anya or keeping the mission intact, they wouldn't hesitate to let her die. For the greater good, of course.
After a moment of Lord's silence, she even goes so far as to say Anya's death could've possibly been proven useful, as the mourning could've gotten Yor closer to Melinda-
A crash.
The woman looks up to see Loid leaving the room, the table by which he'd been standing now snapped in half.
Loid walks back home, contemplating her words. Was Anya really expendable in regards to the mission? Trying to keep his thoughts rational, he plays out how her death would affect it. He sees there are some pros (strictly regarding the goals of the mission) but he shuts those thoughts down immediately.
Why had he been so scared today? If she was truly expendable, why had his heart dropped out of his chest when he'd heard she'd come so close to death?
It didn't make sense, not really.
But when he entered the apartment and saw Yor and Anya still on the floor, still hugging, he realized it did.
Because Anya may be considered expendable for the mission. A pawn in a much larger game of chess.
He falls to the floor and wraps both Yor and Anya in a tight hug, saying nothing.
But she was not expendable to him.
Bonus scene at the end:
Yuri's superior officer knocks at his door. Yuri lets him in.
"Thought you'd like to know, that girl, Anna was it? She's alright. The police handled it."
Yuri, already well aware that Anya is fine and that the police most certainly did not handle it, just nods.
"Thank you for telling me sir."
He just nods.
"However, it seems we have a new problem. You see, witnesses reported seeing a mysterious masked figure helping the police catch the guy. I want you to ID him so we can bring him in for questioning and see if he's an enemy."
The officer is so distracted by his determination to find out about this masked menace, he doesn't notice Yuri is standing very nervously behind him. Sweating bullets.
I ship Chluri
even im surprised
She looks like Yor
Now she looks like Yuri
Especially Yuri
A normal day for the Forgers
The Forgers minding their business:
A character appears in their home:
When Yor isn’t home
Bonus:
Cause she’s a telepath
He literally almost walks/barges in the same pose everytime he enter the forger household
*MANGA SPOILERS AHEAD*
You have to wonder why Twilight hasn't changed the locks yet, the way Yuri seems to come barging in all the time.
Just Yuri agreeing to whatever his sis says
Yuri’s dream timing
I'm at SPYxFamily ch 85 and I drew this because I'm growing old waiting for a Twilight vs Thorn Princess set up. It will happen one day, right? :( (Read left to right >>>)
ok i love twiyor reveals but can we talk about BRIAR SIBLING REVEAL??
i honestly do not know what yor's reaction would be, but i imagine that she took up such a violent and demanding job so yuri could live as peacefully as possible. so, when she finds out he's gone down an equally violent path, maybe she would blame herself for not keeping him safe.
or something :]

as a victim it makes me really frustrated when people see yuri briar as incestuous. i'm not a fan of him and he makes me uncomfortable at times so i don't have all the information about him off the top of my head, but i just want to give a bit analysis in defense of him.
he is not in love with, nor attracted to, yor. he has not just childhood trauma but shared trauma with her. she is also his only family member, which is a fact that he is overly aware of and affects his mental state and actions deeply. he has unhealthy attachment and codependency towards her as she is the only family and also the only close connection he has, as well as because she took on a motherly role for him as the oldest sibling. he feels like he needs to work hard to protect her out of his own love and to feel worthy of having received her love.
i feel like people forget because of how he is towards loid that yuri genuinely wanted yor to have a boyfriend. he even offered to introduce her to someone. but even when you objectively want something, that doesn't mean you'll have only positive feelings when it comes to fruition. he wants for yor to be in a happy relationship but at the same time, he does not know loid. his very most important person is living with someone who is a total stranger to him, and didn't tell him about it for a whole year.
that alone would naturally make anyone somewhat suspicious. then you have to consider that seeing them married also hammers into yuri the fact that he cannot always be there with yor. he has to live with the fact that someone he cares about so dearly, his only person, is going to be alone a lot of the time with a man he doesn't know.
this would be difficult for anyone with childhood trauma and trust issues. and yuri isn't just anyone. he is SSS. he is trained to stay suspicious and untrusting, it is a requirement for his job. he spends hours and hours a week dealing with spies and is intimately aware of how well they can blend in and how they can have a completely unknowing family.
that's all, folks. and i don't want to hear any arguments, thanks. if u disagree just keep it to yourself or u will be blocked 🫶
Spy x family mission 79 and 80 effin WRECKED ME IM NOT OK!
cutie patootie yuri
Normal kids : My dad is stronger than your dad !
Anya : My mom is stronger than your dad.
"The incest part of spy x family ruins it" SHUT UP, your wrong, Yuri Briar is a complex character and to put it as a "weird incest thing" is wrong.
First, Yuri has never implied he wanted any sexual relations with his sister, the most he has said is he loves her and wants to marry her, and that isnt weird if you put in the context that Yuri and Yor are both children who suffered from the war. They didnt have parents to take care of them, that burden was put onto Yor as the older sibling. Yuri looks up to her for that and wants to prove to Yor that he can protect them too. Yuri doesnt understand the complexities of love because he was never taught it, he loves his sister and wants to protect her and has gotten his feelings confused for wanting to marry her. "but hes so weird around loid" IN HIS CHILDHOOD IT WAS ONLY HIM AND HIS SISTER HE IS GOING TO HAVE TROUBLE TRUSTING OTHERS.
They grew up in a war, A WAR. Thats going to have a mental toll on your character, Yuri has taken this by wanting to protect who he loves. Yuri doesnt have anyone outside of Yor he is going to be confused on what his love means.
Loid has mentioned how he is jealous of Yors and Yuris relationship because its so close, and they have eachother to rely on, something Loid didnt get as a child. Loid doesnt see Yuri as a threat to him and Yor.
You can see how he grows through the story and accepts that Yor has found another person to trust and rely on and he doesnt have to carry that burden alone. He has slowly been letting go and giving Loid a chance to be there for Yor and Loid has proven he can and will be there for her, and yuri is grateful and even takes up tutoring Anya, it doesnt work out but he still tries to be supportive to his sister.
In conclusion Yuri briar did not ruin the plot of spy x family with a weird incest trope, if you look at the dialoge and think deeper in on the story, you can observe Yuris growth as a person.
apologies if this doesnt make sense i just hate people who missread the story of Yuris character
Loid Forger really said “ah yes Yor is such a normal person” after she drop kicked multiple people on their first date and then ran after a mugger on their second
THEN he spends one evening with her overprotective drunk brother and immediately clocks him as a member of the secret police.
The duality of this man is truly inspiring.
