Well I am playing it that Yuri remembers the dreams but he's not really lucid during them. That said, it is a big deal for Yuri to be exposed like that--but it being Vincent who saw him negated a lot of that. They already been so exposed around one another it would kind of be a moot point to be upset, and anyway, the idle simplicity of just being a stupid kid with Vincent was really appealing. IT WAS NICE... it was a nice, dumb, sweet, weirdly intimate dream. Maybe also a little bittersweet like, I wonder what kind of kid Vincent would have been if his life wasn't fucked up? I wonder what kind of kid I would have been if I weren't fucked up? Yuri doesn't have regrets regarding what he's done, but it will always weigh on him in the back of his mind. He'll never lock away the capacity in himself to be a murderer.
As for the opera--Really, Yuri has already gotten over the fact that Vincent is Not a Good Guy. He half-tortured him in the middle of the field after all. It's something he accepts without trying to rationalize. Really, Yuri is not a redeemer--he never 'redeemed' Raven and told him it was all okay, he just gave him a second chance to move on. He is willing to be with Vincent knowing his capacity for the kind of thing he did at the opera may never actually go away, but he'd already made that determination when Vincent tortured him. This dream just recinfoced the idea that yes, I can handle what Vincent throws at me.
BABBLE AT ME about Vincent and (sexual) dominance! Does he prefer it physically? Mentally? Would he like for Yuri to be more dominant? MOSTLY these two amuse me with their own private gender politics like how Vincent never lets Yuri lead and Yuri just flat out doesn't care so babble!!
