Ok I'm 99% sure souyo are dating at the time of p4d (and here's why)
(aka I can't hold it in anymore I HAVE to talk about it)
1. The blown kiss. Of course.
ACTUALLY THIS KISS WAS FASCINATING I don't think anyone else does this? Not even Rise?
It's also not at all Yosuke's style of flirting? Because he normally tends to use humour or jokes he's a WORDS person (which is amazing considering how bad he is at expressing himself with words LOL) so this is definitely bold and definitely Something (TM).
2. Kanamin asking if they were a couple during their partner dance like ???
Also Nanako makes a comment about their bromance and I am so sure that it was yosuke who taught her that word because he's the one who said "bromantically entangled" during Valentine's Day if you spend time with him, Teddie and Kanji
Speaking of family
3. Yosuke clearly being on close terms with Dojima/Yu's family in Inaba even in Yu's absence
Dojima could have called Yu himself but he went through Yosuke instead. Because he knows they talk.
(Actually this was a flag for me because it was the exact kind of thing I used to get - when my partner was living in another city my father in law would give me messages to deliver to my partner because we're family. QED Dojima sees Yosuke as family-)
Also Rise pointed out Dojima's presence but Yosuke being the first person to directly address Dojima at the food court? Take it from me, this is actual son-in-law obligations behaviour. There's suddenly a hierarchy. All of your other friends are shuffling off in awkward silence in front of the parents but not you. You gotta do your job.
Also also Nanako's ongoing good relationship with Teddie... and we know who's Teddie's chaperone, don't we
✨ Family, y'all ✨
3. The couples clothing
The samey saturation/tone in typically opposite colours. The vertical vs horizontal stripes. Yu in a v-neck, a style Yosuke is known for. Did they go shopping together?? They don't even live in the same town anymore and yet. And yet. They're wearing matching clothes??? Atlus how. Atlus why. Don't you dare say it was a coincidence because their outfits in p4g were always so stylistically different from each other 😭
4. Their personas' instruments
Most of the team's personas played the same instruments that they did during the concert event in p4g, apart from Teddie, Naoto and Rise, and I guess it makes some sense for them?
Yu's concert event was a bass guitar (also... a bass guitar that Yosuke taught him to play...), so Izanagi is also playing a bass guitar.
BUT
Izanagi-no-Okami is playing a normal guitar, not a bass guitar.
LOOK! SIX STRINGS!!
So for some reason it was changed? But instead of being more distinct it just... became the same as Yosuke's. And what's Izanagi-no-Okami? Oh, you know, just Yu's ultimate persona and the culmination of all of his bonds with everyone in Inaba. You know, the most important thing.
Listen the game has spent FAR too much time driving home its point about hearts and dancing and true feelings and emotions and all that for me to let this point go
5. Their partner tracks include the songs titled Your Affection and Signs of Love (TK Remix). Remixes aside there are only two songs in the entire tracklist with titles that explicitly reference positive love (there's also Heartbeat Heartbreak but, well.) - Your Affection and Signs of Love.
I'm sensing a pattern.
Oh and did I mention that all of that stuff was on top of their usual
Being in their own world even though they're around other people
Looking to each other for assurance
The whole Not Needing Words To Communicate thing
Yosuke introducing himself as Yu's partner (bonus! On national television!! To all of Japan!!)
I'm taking no criticism at this point tyvm

୨୧ ₊˚ ੭ ❝long day ?❞
★ The one who . . . comes home dead tired, but whose focus will always be on you. They’ll shrug off their outer layers hastily and meet you at the door, pulling you into a tight squeeze as they breathes in your familiar you smell, sighing into your neck, “How was your day?” It's easy to see how exhausted they are, but nothing could ever stop them from showing their thankfulness for your devotion to him. He smiles, holds you tighter, and ignores any of your protests that he's much too tired right now to dote on you. He's never too tired to dote on you.
CHUUYA, levi, nanami, isagi, kunigami, reo, chigiri, LUCIFER, megumi, kunikida, fukuzawa, kageyama, sugawara, armin, SHANKS, malleus, riddle, jade, rook, silver, any of your faves !!
★ The one who . . . makes it all too clear that the universe was against them today. They come through the door defeated, immediately slumping into your arms with a whine, not even the least bit worried about their dirty shoes on the carpet. They demand to be coddled for the rest of the evening, swaddled in your arms like a newborn and comforted with soft kisses. They make a big show of it, but it's moments when the day has treated them the worst that they can come home expecting the best.
dazai, RANPO, bachira, GOJO, sanji, mikey, hinata, nishinoya, FLOYD, luffy, nami, NAGI, any of your faves !!
★ The one who . . . plays it off as if they aren’t even tired, pretending they don’t know what you're talking about when you complain about the very visible eyebags they’re sporting. They shrug off your worry with a sigh and a sweet kiss on the forehead, allowing themselves to fall into you. Its almost magic, the way you hold them, they think. They’re sure to apologize for making you so concerned before falling asleep in your arms.
ZORO, chuuya, chigiri, azul, deuce, epel, jack, malleus, idia, ferne <3, mikasa, jack, geto, nanami, any of your faves!!
