Fear [ He should have paid more attention when he was going home. Should have more carefully counted the turns and sidewalks and buildings he passed. Yosuke doesn't expect the fog to thin or to find himself looking over unfamiliar buildings. They're far to round and the noises are way to similar to things you only heard in bad horror movies.
And maybe that paranoia is the only thing that keeps him from getting pinned by a giant rat. No seriously it was a giant rat. What the hell were they feeding that thing? It's like fending off a rabid dog when all he has is his hands, he wasn't expecting a problem or he'd have his kunai on him, and boy does he miss them right now.
At least he still has his hands and his experience so he doesn't look entirely stupid as he's trying to keep those massive jaws from closing on his face. Alternately, Yosuke's attempting to rabbit punch the thing off of him. It's really quite a sight for anyone that stumbles upon him, a beanpole of a seventeen year old boy wrestling with a giant rat. ]
Hope [ When he first found the mirror, Yosuke took one glance and tried to forget about the flash he saw in the glass. There were people there instead of his face and that was enough to make him want nothing to do with it. Mirrors shouldn't reflect things that aren't there; it was creepy.
But the longer the mirror sat in his pocket, the more his curiosity grew. Was it really showing things that weren't there? Maybe it was just a trick of the light. A beam of the strange light from above flashing across the surface and creating the illusion of other people being in the circle of the ornate frame. He was not going to be caught checking to see if it was real though.
Finding an out of the way corner at a shop, Yosuke takes out the mirror and studies the image inside. Faces he both does and doesn't know, cheering while he finishes college. The hand mirror showed him a million different things things he hadn't even begun to really think about as being in his future. Yosuke had dreams, hopes, and desires yes, and those images were just so tantalizingly possible.
It makes him feel like he's worth more than the plucky sidekick to the teams leader. That he can actually do more than put a few facts together and form a plan that might meet the expectations with the rest of the team. Gives him a sense of value that he hasn't felt recently, not since their beautiful failure in December. He doesn't realize it but there's actually a goofy pleased grin on his face as a pretty (not too pretty) girl crosses the glass and embraces him. ]
