** Combined with FamousLastWords.

* [[MercyKill Ayato’s Bad End]]:[[spoiler:On Ayato’s route, The S choices are particularly hurtful because, as you learn later, the S choices are basically “Cordelia” choices. They are times when Cordelia takes over and Yui says something mean that she wouldn’t have normally. That’s why Ayato goes crazy in this Ending if you pick all S choices, because he can’t separate Yui from his mother in his mind and he feels that the only way to get rid of his mother (again) is to stop Yui’s heartbeat, which sounds the same. He isn’t actually meaning to kill Yui, he’s just delirious and confused, not realizing that stabbing his mother’s heart will kill Yui, as well. He even says “Now I can be with you without having to remember that person anymore.” .]]
** It is no better in [[AndIMustScream Ayato’s Normal End]]: [[spoiler:He reveals the AwfulTruth about her heart and Cordelia. He then goes and kills his brothers. He also makes Yui into a mindless doll who can only say "I love you".]].

--->'''Ayato''':[[spoiler: You are eternally mine... the toy only for me.]]

* [[MercyKill Laito’s Bad End]]: [[spoiler:Cordelia takes full control of Yui’s body and Laito kills Karl thanks to the fact that Yui has awakened as a vampire. Cordelia claims to Laito that she can ask Reiji to go revive Karl for her, despite knowing that Karl hates her. Laito doesn’t buy it and does a MercyKill to Yui. Yui accepts her fate and ask Laito to kiss her one more time.]]
* Subaru’s Bad End: [[spoiler:Subaru [[OffingTheOffspring gets killed by Karlheinz]]. However, Yui in despair says out loud that she’ll even abandon God in order to save Subaru. This causes Cordelia to emerge. In order to stop her from emerging from her body, Yui kills herself with Subaru’s silver knife, so his sacrifice for her won’t be in vain.]]

--->'''Yui''':[[spoiler: Subaru-kun realized it during the times when my heart hurt...That was why he reduced the number of times he sucked my blood, and immediately showed up whenever I was about to collapse...You were always watching out for me.]]

--->'''[[DyingMomentOfAwesome Yui]]''':[[spoiler: I swear my lifetime to you, Subaru-kun.]]
* [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge Shu’s Bad End]]: Shu finds out that Reiji was responsible for [[spoiler:Edgar’s death, as he burned his village. In a fit of rage, Shu engages Reiji in a swordfight. Both die and Yui is sobbing next to Shu’s corpse as the remaining siblings try to take advantage of her now that Shu is dead.]] You bastards.
* Shin's brute end [[spoiler:Yui and Shin get kidnapped by Karlheinz and he brainwashes Shin and uses him as a research experiment to cure a disease that supposedly killed off Shin and Carla’s race. Shin doesn’t realize it’s Yui while he sucks all the blood from her body and only realizes when Yui is already dead and it ends with him screaming]].

** His manservant ending is as fun and happy. [[spoiler:After running away to a safe location, Shin demands to know what Yui was doing there. Smiling, Yui says that she was there because he was there. But he says that at that moment, he might have killed both her and the Vibora leader at once. Shin goes on to say that now he’s going to be a wanted man by both the Vibora people and probably even Carla. But that has nothing to do with Yui. She should go back to Carla or go somewhere else if she wants to live. Yui of course refuses and Shin says “What the heck are you saying!? If the you from when we first met heard those words, she’d hit you, you know?” Yui says that’s probably true but she’ll stay by his side anyway. “What if I say you cant?” “Even so, I’ll do it anyway.” Referencing what he said before, she says that she’s choosing to stay by his side. Shin then says “LIKE YOU CAN KEEP UP WITH ME” and stomps off, acting like he’s going to leave her behind, but then he comes back for Yui anyway. He insists on holding her hand and the two of them go off together. Shin thinks to himself that he doesn’t care about anything else anymore, all he wants is to protect this one woman. He thinks it’s sad/laughable that someone as obsessed with the ancestors as him could turn his back on all of it now, but that’s just how important Yui’s existence is to him. So then for some reason he and Yui start living in this haunted house or something with a bunch of creepy wax dolls. He thinks about how he’s gotten used to it but Yui hasn’t. He’s thinking about how he’s going to prank her. Even though they’re in such dire straits, he can still smile. The two of them have no past, future, or anything anymore, but even so… Suddenly Richter shows up and reveals that he’s kidnapped Yui. Or rather, he’s regained Cordelia’s body/vessel. He says that Yui is precious to him in her own way so he won’t do anything terrible to her…but he might beat her around a bit unless Shin does what he says. Richter has Shin lick his boots and while doing so (and Richter laughing like LOOK KARLHEINZ LOOK THIS ANCESTOR IS BOWING TO MEEEEEE) Shin thinks that now he understands the feelings that Carla had when he bowed in front of that Vibora leader to save his life. "—If it’s for your sake, then I…” Yui comes to, handcuffed to the bed, and it’s revealed that Richter sent Shin to assassinate Karlheinz in exchange for Yui’s safety. Richter shows this to Yui in a mirror. Shin fails to kill Karl, who figures out why he’s doing this and feels sorry for him, but can’t hold back. Yui is happy that Shin is alive, but Richter says that with the humiliation of having received mercy from Karlheinz, perhaps Shin wishes he were dead. He then proceeds to rape Yui, saying that he’s going to make her forget about Shin. An unspecified amount of time later, Yui has apparently escaped from Richter and is running through the forest. She finds Shin all beat up and living in a cave. She goes to him, but hesitantly because she feels that she can no longer be his. Shin realizes that she’s been raped by Richter, but says that doesn’t matter to him. (or rather, that doesn’t lessen her worth to his eyes) He tells Yui to come to him—he wants to feel her. The two are so happy to finally be reunited………..so happy that you know that this can’t be and so of course Carla comes and sets them both on fire, saying he can’t forgive Shin for betraying him. Yui and Shin embrace while they burn away, determined to be together forever and never let go of each other again. Shin dies as he tries to say “I love you” to Yui.]] SPLENDID.

You get more clarity about this ending from Ayato’s first character song, ADDICTED (2) PHANTOM, which is about this ending based on all the references in it. He admits in the song that he’s done something that can’t be forgiven (or atoned for) and the song mentions the swaying curtains that are present in his Ending 02 CG along with Yui’s scream. The song is basically about him clinging to the memories of past Yui before she was broken, the times when they were happy, a desire to monopolize that went wrong.
