As per usual, Meibot.exe failed to execute the communication subroutine, so Yuzu went on her own with zero context, got the wrong message and ended up disappointed and hurt, yet again.
I don't really blame Mei here. If anything Yuzu has always seemed a bit too insecure based on very little interactions with this guy. Mei has reassured her a few times now, as well. I don't think talking with a guy for work warrants intense discussions but maybe that's what Yuzu will need. That can't always be the case though or it'll be exhausting for Mei too. Either way, I can understand both of their perspectives somewhat, even if I lean towards Mei quite a bit.
Yuzu does have a tendency to never press Mei on anything and to just dive headfirst into situations without taking the time to figure stuff out first. Still, with Mei never bothering to communicate the important information to her EVER, you can't exactly blame Yuzu for the situation either. She's actually a very bright, resourceful girl, but it always feels like Mei can't bring herself to trust her to handle important matters.
I view Mei as overwhelmed, focused, and driven. Often that kind of focus can create tunnel vision. She has a lot of pressure on her shoulders. She also knows Yuzu is not really knowledgeable about these affairs. I don't think Mei intends to hide things; she just prefers to work independently, which I think is fine in a relationship. Most of Yuzu's issue is with this guy, not with Mei's work. The work is tied to her worries because the guy is involved in it.
Regarding Arata, I don't see much reason for Yuzu to be this insecure. I don't think Mei needs to constantly reassure Yuzu when Mei's done nothing suspicious. I do understand Yuzu, but I just side more with Mei here. I also understand Mei's feeling offended because after a while that level of insecurity can seem like a comment on Mei's loyalty. I agree with Yuzu's desire to be supportive, but she seems to think being supportive means literally being involved in Mei's work-- even that is partially fueled by her worry over Arata.
